828 new flats for SengKang, Sembawang

Build-to-order projects launced with 126 two-room units for poor.

THE Housing Board has launched two build-to-order (BTO) projects that will deliver 828 new flats to the market.The developments – Fernvale Ridge in Sengkang and Sembawang RiverLodge in Sembawang – comprise 266 three-room, 436 four-room and 126 five-room units.
Another 126 two-room flats in Sembawang RiverLodge will not be offered for sale. They will be set aside for lower-income families at a later date, said the HDB yesterday.
This is the first time the HDB has set aside flats. It said that two-room flats generally received fewer applications in BTO launches but they were central in helping families in financial difficulties get suitable housing.The low-income group was placed in the spotlight recently during this month’s Budget debate with several MPs asking whether this group had inadvertently been left out in the pursuit of growth and if substantial government support had been provided for them.Yesterday’s launch is part of a broader HDB plan to offer at least 12,000 new flats this year. So far 3,653 flats have been offered this quarter with a further 1,200 BTO units to be launched in Punggol next month. Future launches have been earmarked for estates such as Yishun and Woodlands. Construction on BTO projects is triggered once a certain level of sales has been achieved.



Sengkang의 Fernvale Ridge 과  Sembawang의 RiverLodge에 266채의방 3개짜리와 436채의 방 4개짜리 그리고 126채의 방 두개짜리를 저소득층 자를 위해 런칭하기로 했다.
sembawang의 RiverLodge의 126채의 방 2개짜리는 아직 판매하지 않고 있다.
저소득층자들을 위해 따로 날짜를 둘 예정이다.
이렇게 저소득층을 위해 따로 플랫을 둔 경우는 이번이 처음이다.
일반적으로 방두개짜리 플랫은 BTO신청자들을 적게 받는다고 하지만 이번만큼은 경제적으로 부유하지않은 가족들을 돕는데 중심을 두고 있다.
어제한 런칭은 더 넓은 HDB계획중 하나이며 최소한 12,000채의 새로운 플랫을 이번해에 제공할것이다.
지금까지 3,653채의 플랫이 제공되어져왔고 이번분기에 1,200채의 BTO유닛이 Punggol에 다음달에 런칭될것이다.
Yishun과 Woodlands에는 앞으로의 런칭들이 배당될것이다.
