Including ECs, URA said a total of 2,067 units of new homes were sold in July.Private home sales in the month of July for Singapore’s Core Central Region (CCR) jumped by almost 80% month on month to reach 253 units.‘As the market prepares for the upcoming Ghost Month, all segments have seen a jump in sales. A notable rise was recorded in the CCR which saw home sales peak at 253. In fact, July’s home sales in the CCR were the highest in the last 15 months, only after April 2011’s sales volume of 306,’ said Tejaswi Chunduri, regional analyst at PropertyGuru.‘This reinforces the fact that location is the most important factor when considering property investment.
