Potential BTO classifications
Analysts anticipate that Queenstown and Bukit Merah projects might fall under the prime location public housing (PLH) model, given their city fringe locations and proximity to MRT stations.
Meanwhile, the Sin Ming flats, although slightly distant from the city centre, could potentially be categorised under the new Plus category. This reclassification introduces stricter resale conditions, emphasising the need for timely decision-making.
