PRICES of Housing Board (HDB) resale flats rose 3.1 per cent in the second quarter compared to the first, according to official figures released on Friday.

This is almost double the rate of increase of 1.6 per cent seen in the first quarter - reversing a moderation of the rate of increase of prices seen in the last four quarters.

Analysts say this is likely due to more owners taking their homes off the resale market due to recent rules which tightened ownership rules for HDB flats. HDB home owners could also be putting off upgrading plans as prices of homes in the private property market is at an all-time high.

HDB's figures showed the number of resale flats that changed hands increased by about 6 per cent to 6,581 transactions in the second quarter.

The HDB departed from its usual practice and did not release an overall median cash-over-valuation (COV) figure across all estates. In the previous quarter, this figure was $21,000.

Preliminary data from property agencies obtained by The Straits Times, however, had pointed that COV had spiked recently to about $32,000. COV is the cash premium paid to sellers above the valuation of a flat.

转售组屋还是不能满足需求量，这样的市场情绪将导致 COV 持续攀升。看来真的需要继续推出更多新组屋/BTO来应付。
