Realising My Dream ❤️
Stepping into my journey as a Real Estate Consultant/Agent has been nothing short of amazing.

I’m truly grateful for the trust and support from all my friends and wonderful clients.

🏡 The hardest part of selling a landed home isn't the listing. It's deciding what comes next.

Most families I work with have owned the same home for 20, 30, sometimes 40 years. The mortgage is gone. The kids are grown. Now what.

That's the real conversation.

I'm Alvin. PropNex Top Landed Property Transactor, April 2026. Recent one: a Serangoon Gardens home sold above bank valuation. One day. First viewing.

Buy for own-stay, or buy for investment?

The most expensive mistake I watch buyers make is trying to do both with the same property.

Own-stay buyers focus on layout, school catchment, daily commute, neighbourhood feel.

Investment buyers focus on rental yield, tenant catchment, MRT proximity, resale liquidity.

Same $1.8M, completely different shortlists.

Try to solve for both and you end up with a property that does neither job well. Rents slowly because it's in a quiet enclave. Or rents fast but feels wrong for your family.

Decide the lens before you book viewings.

Home loan rates just hit a 4-year low. Fixed from 1.40%. Floating from around 1%. But before you switch off your HDB loan, read this.

Bank loans are cheaper today. On a $500K HDB loan, that's around $2,900 saved in year one.

Here's the trap most HDB owners miss. Once you leave the HDB loan, you can't go back. Even if rates climb past 3 or 4% again, you stay on bank rates for good.

In 2023, fixed packages hit 4.25%. That cycle will return.

Stress test your sums at 3.5% before you decide.

Sell HDB first, or buy the condo first?
Get the order wrong and it can cost you $300,000 in upfront cash.
Three real paths upgraders fall into:

Sell, then buy. Zero ABSD. Cleanest cash flow. Needs interim housing.
Buy, sell HDB within 6 months. ABSD paid upfront, refunded after the sale completes. $300K locked on a $1.5M condo.
Spouse buys in single name. Only works if one spouse was never on the HDB title.

Path B is where most upgrader regret comes from. The $300K isn't lost. It's locked, often for half a year.

Sold in 2 days. One of the highest prices ever done at Midview City.

Here's what surprised most people: it's industrial. Not residential. Not commercial. Industrial.

Most buyers won't touch it. They hear "B1" and "42 years lease" and walk away. Fair enough. Industrial isn't easy to read if you've only ever bought condos.

But the buyer who picked this up knew exactly what to look for. I cover the three things in the video.

If industrial has ever crossed your mind, watch it. Then DM me. We'll work out whether it fits.

My first PropNex Platinum Award. 🏆

This one took a while. Late-night WhatsApp messages, weekend viewings, deals that almost fell apart and somehow held. April 2026 finally pulled it together.

Platinum Achiever, 103rd position.
Top Landed Property Transactor, 5th position.

I didn't get here alone.

To my mentor Bobby Sng, thank you for the patience, the honest advice, and pushing me when I needed pushing. You taught me how to do this properly.

To my boss Alan Lim, thank you for the leadership and the platform.

And to every client who trusted me this month with one of the biggest decisions of your life, thank you. I felt every one of those deals. The trophy's on my desk but it's really yours.

Back to work tomorrow!

Q1 2026 is in, and the headlines lean negative. My read is different.

Private prices rose 0.9% q-o-q. OCR led at 2.2%. CCR rebounded to 0.6% from negative territory. HDB resale slipped 0.1%, the first quarterly dip in 7 years. But 412 HDB flats crossed $1M last quarter, a record.

This isn't a falling market. It's a splitting one. Different segments, different speeds.

The buyers who do well from here are the ones already financially ready. Not the ones waiting for a bottom that probably isn't coming.

Next 90 days I'm watching: OCR new launch pricing, HDB MOP supply absorption, and CCR foreign buyer flow.

13,480 HDB flats reach MOP in 2026. Almost double last year's 6,970.

🏘️ The wave is concentrated: Punggol 3,222 (mostly Northshore), Queenstown/Dawson 2,405, Tampines North 2,133, Bidadari 1,594.

Selling this year? Last year's pricing playbook won't work. Buyers will line up 3 to 5 comparable units before yours. Price to sell, not to chase a bidding war.

Buyers, supply gives you room in Punggol and Tampines. Dawson and Bidadari stay tight.

Forecast: 0 to 2% HDB resale growth in 2026. Cooling, not collapsing.
