Launch of the tender follows the government rolling out new measures to cool the heated market
26 May 2026
In what will be the first test of developer appetite for executive condominium (EC) projects following a fresh tightening of rules, the government has launched the tender for an EC site at Canberra Drive in Sembawang.
The 11,535-square-metre (sq m) parcel can yield about 185 units, with a gross floor area of 18,457 sq m.
The launch of the tender, which closes on Oct 1, comes after the government earlier this month tightened rules for the EC market amid heated demand for the 99-year leasehold housing hybrid.

Buyers of new executive condominiums (ECs) will soon have to live in their homes for 10 years before they can sell them – double the current minimum occupation period (MOP) of five years.
More units will also be set aside for first-time home buyers to give them a better chance of securing a unit and to encourage developers to keep prices down, National Development Minister Chee Hong Tat said on May 8.
A deferred payment scheme, which allows buyers to pay a 20 per cent down payment and defer the remainder until the project obtains its temporary occupation permit, will be scrapped to encourage financial prudence, he said.
