Singapore’s HDB market splits: Record S$1m deals, slower overall sales

Singapore's Housing and Development Board (HDB) resale market witnessed a record high of 209 million-dollar flat sales in September 2026, comprising 9.3 percent of the total resale volume. This surge in high-end transactions came as overall sales slowed, down 10.9 percent month-over-month. Despite the cooling trend, resale prices rose 0.6 percent month-over-month, falling slightly short of levels seen in September 2025.

The market's shift towards premium properties reflects the influence of private homeowners freed from the wait-out period, who now have more purchasing power to pay a premium for flats that meet their needs.
