Melvin Lim from PropertyLimBrothers outlines strategic shifts in the property market from 2025 to 2028, focusing on how affordability constraints and developer responses will reshape buying patterns. He explains why the $1.5M quantum range remains critical for HDB upgraders and resale buyers, especially those targeting 3- and 4-bedroom units that appeal to the widest exit audience. With upcoming launches likely to push PSFs to new highs, size reduction may become developers’ only path to price accessibility.

The discussion also highlights broader monetary trends, including the Fed’s $40 billion T-bill buyback, which Melvin frames as stealth money printing. This increase in money supply, he argues, quietly erodes purchasing power and reinforces the urgency of strategic property moves. By aligning quantum, audience demand and timeline, buyers can still find viable entry points—before these segments price out entirely.

If you’re navigating limited budgets, unit sizing trends or upcoming market launches, this episode offers grounded perspectives.
