Choose a home that you will love and cherish from 6 new Build-To-Order (BTO) projects. These projects offer a total of 4,056 units of 2-room Flexi, 3-, 4-, 5-room, and 3Gen flats
This BTO exercise also marks the first time that families emplaced on the Fresh Start Housing Scheme (Fresh Start) can apply for a flat, since the scheme was launched on 1 Dec 2016.
The Fresh Start scheme is intended to help second-timer families with young children staying in a public rental flat, own a flat again. Eligible families will be able to buy a 2-room Flexi flat, with lease options ranging from 45 to 65 years (offered in five-year increments). The lease must last the applicants and their spouse (if applicable) until at least the age of 95. The flat price, grant amount and resale levy payable will be adjusted based on the chosen lease of the flat.
Families emplaced on Fresh Start can apply for a 2-room Flexi flat in the BTO/SBF sales exercises, within one year of emplacement. They will enjoy priority allocation of up to 10% of 2-room Flexi units, under the Tenants’ Priority Scheme (TPS)
Flats offered in this BTO launch range from 2-room Flexi to Three-Generation (3Gen) flats. A project in Woodlands, originally planned for launch in February 2017, has been deferred. Due to the site conditions, further review is needed to better integrate it with surrounding developments. The project will be launched after the review is completed.
Eligible first-timer families can enjoy up to $80,000 of housing grants, comprising the Additional CPF Housing Grant (AHG) (up to $40,000) and the Special CPF Housing Grant (SHG) (up to $40,000). With these grants, buyers of 2-room Flexi, 3-room, 4-room and 5-room flats could pay as little as $5,0002, $88,000, $197,000 and $378,000 respectively.
New HDB flats are priced with a generous subsidy, taking into account factors such as location, flat attributes and prevailing market conditions. HDB’s prices are considerably lower than transacted prices of comparable resale flats in the vicinity (see Table 1 for the BTO prices and the comparable resale prices). In addition, 2-room Flexi flats are priced taking into account the lease chosen
