January 26, 2021 HDB flats. The Straits Times file Every year, new couples and families wait in anticipation for the newest crop of HDB Build-To-Order (BTO) launches. With property prices on the rise and resale prices hitting the steepest increase of 5 years in 2020, those looking for affordable housing will find BTO prices even more attractive. Assuming that you are able to wait for the flat completion, you would be hard-pressed to find a more affordable housing option. Without further ado, let’s delve into HDB’s first BTO offering for 2021. The February 2021 BTO launch is a smaller launch compared to the previous 2020 launches with only 4 project sites and a total offering of 3,700 units. Presumably without another circuit breaker disruption, HDB would resume its regular annual schedule of 4 BTO launches and the upcoming BTO projects are being spread across the 4 launches.
