Singapore boasts one of the most expensive real estate markets in the world. This is especially the case for private residential properties, since HDB flats are only available for citizens, and thus relatively protected from investor speculations. In order to slow down the market speculation that has driven up property prices, however, the Singaporean government has put in multiple measures to cool investor demand.

Below, we have prepared a study on property prices in Singapore to help prospective buyers plan out their purchases in advance.
