Changes made to the Seller Stamp Duty as announced by the government of Singapore.
With effect from 11 March 2017, the government will implement changes to the Seller’s Stamp Duty (SSD) as according to a statement from the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of National Development on Friday (10 March 2017).
Currently, the Seller Stamp Duty (SSD) is paid by homeowners who sell their residential property within four years of purchase, at rates of between four percent and 16 percent of the property’s value. Since this measure was introduced in January 2011, the number of property sales within the four-year window has fallen significantly.

Since this measure was introduced in January 2011, the number of property sales within the four-year window has fallen significantly.
As such, the government will now reduce the holding period for imposing SSD from the current four years to three years. The SSD rate will also be lowered by four percentage points for each tier. The new rates will range from four percent for properties sold in the third year to 12 percent for those sold within the first year.
Some property analysts expect a modest boost in home sales in 2017 after the change in the seller stamp duty ( SSD) rules take effect.

Why Buy an Executive Condominium?
Executive Condominium ( EC ) is a hybrid between public and private housing, It cater to the needs of
the “sandwich” class — those whose household incomes exceed the ceiling
for public housing but are not quite yet able to afford a private
property. As such, ECs come with a set of eligibility criteria to ensure
affordability for this select group.
Executive Condominiums (ECs) have been among the best-selling projects lately.
Applicants must either form a family nucleus or join up with other singles if they are at least 35 years old. They must also not exceed the household income ceiling of S$14,000. Only Singaporean couples and Singaporean/permanent resident couples can buy an EC unit. Also, buyers have to fulfil a mandatory five-year minimum occupation period (MOP) before they are can rent out or sell the EC unit.
The greatest draw of ECs is surely the fact that while they start out as HDB property, in 10 years' time they will be officially recognised as private property.
ECs come with a full suite of condominium facilities and are generally comparable to private developments in design. For those who choose to buy an EC are doing so for the lifestyle. Essentially, an EC is a subsidised private condominium.

To buy or not to buy a property now?
The mood in the real estate sector in Singapore has been mostly gloomy for a while
but sentiment has clearly improved from this time last year with talk
that prices could start bouncing off the bottom.
Owning an investment property and collecting good rental income is one version of the Singapore Dream wafting through show-flats everywhere.
Real estate investment - once considered a no-brainer has become more complicated in recent years, with changing market dynamics brought about partly by new government policies and measures to cool the market.
The prospect of an improving property market outlook, cheap loans and relatively more affordable small apartments have lured many investors back to real estate.
Property remains an attractive long-term investment, but thorough consideration must be made - beyond just interest rate movements and location of the project - before investing in one.
Those looking to invest in property now take a longer-term investment horizon, as there is limited potential for short-term gains, unlike in the past when prices could appreciate by 60 per cent in a few years.
Investors have to consider the cash-flow potential of the property and whether it could cover mortgage and running costs, and need to be prepared for negative cash flow for the periods that they cannot find a tenant.
