Good morning,

Today, we shared with The Straits Times and other media the findings from a survey of 1,533 HDB owners conducted by PropNex.

Two findings caught my attention:

• 73.9% said their current flat still meets their needs, yet 55.1% still hope to own a private home one day.

• Surprisingly, more respondents expect HDB resale prices to fall in the next 12 months than private property prices: 32.7% compared with 24.7%.

The research raises some interesting questions, whether you plan to stay in your current home, are thinking of selling or are preparing for your next purchase.

I have prepared two short playbooks based on the findings.

Which would be more useful to you: the *Seller Playbook* or *Buyer Playbook*?

An important change was announced today. Private homeowners who sell can now buy an HDB resale flat immediately without the previous 15-month wait.

Will this bring more buyers into the HDB resale market and encourage more private owners to sell and right-size?
