This runs contrary to attitudes from five years ago when HDB flats were often criticised as “99-year time bombs” (and let’s not even get into the debate over whether flats are “really just rented”!) But why is it happening? Here are some possible reasons: - High homeownership rates reduce legacy needs - HDB flats depreciating slower than theories suggest - Trending gentrification - The oldest flats tend to be bigger (for 5-room flats at least) - Changing perspectives of flats as assets - Optimism about flats being just a temporary home For the full article, please visit: https://stackedhomes.com/editorial/old-hdb-flats-are-being-snapped-up-by-young-singaporeans-but-why/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM 00:00 - Intro 00:56 - High homeownership rates reduce legacy needs 03:20 - HDB flats depreciating slower than theories suggest 04:34 - Desire for authenticity 05:45 - The oldest flats tend to be bigger 06:35 - Changing perspectives of flats as assets 07:39 - Optimism about flats being just a temporary home 09:54 - Outro Cover image credit: https://www.instagram.com/limliakstories/ Visit Our Store ==================== Lighting - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/lighting?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Tableware - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/tableware?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Storage - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/storage?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Kitchenware - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/kitchenware?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Bathroom - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/bathroom?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Decor - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/decor?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Textiles - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/textiles?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Housekeeping - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/housekeeping?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Patio and Garden - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/patio-garden?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Accessories - https://stackedhomes.com/store/product-category/accessories?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM Follow us on our other socials, where we post more property content! 👉 Instagram: https://instagram.com/stackedhomes/ 👉 Facebook: https://facebook.com/stackedhomes/ 👉 Telegram: http://t.me/stackedhomes 👉 Website: https://stackedhomes.com/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=opinions_uOa7zRXGPkM For other enquiries: [email protected] Just want to chat about real estate?
