The Singaporean First Time Home Owner's Dilemma: HDB Build-To-Order or A HDB Flat?
by
Siti Zubeidah Binte Kadir
For first timer homeowners, there's always the dilemma of choosing between purchasing a new Built-To-Order (BTO) flat from HDB or a resale flat from the open market. Until recently, resale flats in the open market have been out of reach for most first time buyers, with Cash Over Valuations (COVs) going for an average of $30 000 to highs of $100 000. Unless these young couples have been saving for years, it is unlikely that they have that much cash to fork out, especially if you factor in the wedding and other miscellaneous expenses.
