9,200 homes are in the pipeline. Where they land says more than the number.

Twice a year the government publishes a list of land it intends to sell to developers. It reads like a spreadsheet. It is really a map of where Singapore is about to build, and if you are buying in the next few years it tells you more than any launch brochure will.

What just landed

The 2H 2026 Government Land Sales (GLS) slate keeps total supply almost flat: roughly 9,200 private homes across the Confirmed and Reserve Lists, a touch above the previous half. The figure itself is not the headline. Steady is. A stable slate is the government signalling that it sees healthy demand and wants to keep the market from running away in either direction.

The Confirmed List is the part you can plan around

Two lists matter here. The Confirmed List is land that goes to tender on schedule, whether or not a developer asks for it. The Reserve List only comes to market if a developer first commits to a minimum bid. So when you want to know what will actually get built and launched, you read the Confirmed List. This half it holds nine sites and about 4,745 homes, one of which is an executive condominium plot.

Where the homes actually are

Look past the count and a clear tilt shows up. Four of the nine confirmed sites sit in the Rest of Central Region, the city-fringe band buyers tend to want most: close enough to town to matter, priced below the core. That is where the bulk of this half’s choice is going.

The rest splits between the prime Core Central Region, the suburbs, and a single EC. One plot dominates the unit count on its own: the Town Hall Link white site in Jurong Lake District, at 1,200 homes inside a larger mixed-use scheme.

The EC signal: deliberately small

If you are an HDB upgrader watching executive condos, read this part closely. The state put up one EC site this half, 735 units in Jurong East. Across the whole of 2026 that is roughly 1,370 EC units from three plots, down about a third from 2025. New EC rules took effect in May, and the smaller release looks like the government waiting to see how buyers and developers respond before opening the taps again.

For Jurong East specifically, this is the first new EC land in the area since 1996. Scarcity like that tends to concentrate demand. If you are in that catchment and an EC is your route, this is a site to track, not one to assume you will land.

Five sites worth a second look

Not every plot is equal, and a unit count tells you nothing about whether a future launch will suit you. Here is where we would point a buyer’s attention, and why.

What this means if you’re buying

• City-fringe is where the choice is. If the RCR is your band, this half gives you more to compare. More supply usually means more room to negotiate, not less.
• EC hopefuls, manage expectations. One small site this half. If you are set on an EC, widen your timeline and your locations rather than banking everything on a single ballot.
• A big plot is not the best buy by default. Town Hall Link is huge, but a 1,200-home mixed-use build is a very different commitment from a 300-unit launch. Match the project to your holding period.
• Confirmed beats Reserve for planning. A Reserve List site may never launch. Anchor your shortlist on Confirmed List plots and the projects already selling around them.
