'33,000 is hell of a lot of unsold flats'

lianbeng says, eh marborotan, sell to hell lah millions of "residents" there waiting.

 

[streetsmart73]

well, if there are so many unsold HDB flats and everyone is taking up resale flats instead, shouldn't he think there is some thing wrong with the flats that he built?

He ceratainly needs to take up Marketing course.

hi there

1. not just some marketing course or what.
2. that got to show that ah horse or any sheep did little homework.
3. kosong ground sentiments and clueless.
4. it shall reflect what's missing if he got the guts to show where are these unsold units located.

In a corporation, he will be fired long ago
In a country, such Minister will get booted out long ago
In Singapore, he can talk cork and get a big pay hike.

Remember to do some real National Service, Vote the whole greedy lot out.

'33,000 is hell of a lot of unsold flats'

i have a suggestion for this bloke: peg the prices of the pigeon holes to the construction cost, then we shall see if HDB is left with any empty units or not

MBT ought to be hung by his balls

 

[niigata]

MBT is bullshitting.
show me where are the 33k units.
I have been trying BTO for the past 1 yr, still didn't get a chance to choose.

 

[Coolsaint77]

That is precisely the problem. Govt members just pluck figures from the air depending on what message they are trying to send across. To cool the market he says there's 33k excess flats. To lift the market in down times he could remind you the number of flats can never catch up with the FTs to be imported. I wouldn't read too much into such election motivted remarks.

 

[spotter542]

Take a course? He probably needs a brain transplant!

Perhaps Khaw can recommend a good surgeon who charge $8 or less to Horsey

Supply in the Pipeline

As at the end of 4th Quarter 2010, there was a total supply of 65,699 uncompleted units of private housing from projects in the pipeline (see Annex E-1). Of these, 32,776 units were still unsold. These comprised 3,528 units that had been launched for sale by developers and 10,400 units which had the pre-requisite conditions for sale and could be launched for sale immediately. The remaining 18,848 units with planning approvals did not have the pre-requisite conditions for sale (see Annex B-1). Details of the number of unsold private residential units with planning approvals in the 3 market segments are given in Annex B-2.

Of the 65,699 units, 51,078 units were expected to be completed between 2011 and 2014, of which 36,950 units were already under construction8. Developers had obtained planning approvals9 for projects making up the remaining 14,128 units (see Annex E-2).

Not possible coz he has none. Hang him upside down is one option worth considering.

Public housing is such. It's public. So peg the prices slightly above the construction rate (We understand the need to make a slight profit to channel the funds to better units next time)
And I'm sure the so-called 33k units will be snapped up. Leave the condo dreams to those who can afford it. MBT, stop talking cock!
