Sell High, Buy Low: The Smart Investor’s Guide to Property Success
Timing is everything in property investment. The age-old mantra "Sell High, Buy Low" is not just a catchy phrase—it’s a strategic approach that, when executed correctly, can lead to substantial financial gains. But this strategy requires more than just luck; it demands an understanding of market cycles, emotional discipline, and informed decision-making.
As we approach 2025, the property market presents a golden opportunity to apply this principle. Let’s explore the "why" and "how" behind this powerful strategy.
SELL HIGH: CAPITALIZING ON PEAK MARKET CONDITION
Have you ever wondered why there are fewer viewing activities nowadays?
Let me share the secret behind it.
From 2020 to 2024, the resale market experienced remarkable growth, largely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The disruption in supply chains reduced new property launches, driving demand toward resale properties. Developers grew concerned about clearing their balance units, while buyers faced limited options, leading to a surge in resale prices.
However, year-on-year growth in the resale sector has started to slow. In 2023 alone, approximately 19,000 units were completed—the highest annual supply since 2017. In 2024, another 12,000 units were completed, bringing the total to over 30,000 newly completed units entering the market.
This surge in supply has created intense competition within the resale market, leading to price stabilization or slower growth. As a result, now presents a strategic opportunity to exit at peak prices, as supported by recent resale transaction data. Re-entering the market as the government replenishes housing inventory could be a smart move.
If you own property and have met your Seller’s Stamp Duty (SSD) requirements, 2025 offers a unique opportunity to sell while resale prices remain high. By acting before the market shifts, you can lock in significant gains. Now that we’ve identified why 2025 could be a prime time to sell, let’s explore how the anticipated supply glut in new launches creates opportunities to buy low.
Year on year slowing down

This will only work in different asset class. i.e resale and new launch
How to Buy Smart in a High-Priced Market
Everything feels expensive these days—but the question isn’t just how to buy low, it’s where and when to buy smart.
Let’s clear up a common myth: "You can't find value in today’s market."
The truth? Strategic opportunities exist—especially when you understand the property supply cycle across different asset classes, such as new launches and resale properties.
Timing the Market with Supply Cycles
To uncover value, let’s explore the supply-demand dynamics in Singapore’s Rest of Central Region (RCR). Using a 5-year average transaction volume, we observe a clear trend:
1. When unsold stock (balance supply) is high, take-up rates tend to be lower, often leading to slower or stagnant price growth.
2. When demand outpaces supply (i.e., higher take-up rates than available stock), prices are more likely to rise.
Looking ahead, 2025 will see 31 new project launches, alongside approximately 20 Government Land Sales (GLS). What does this mean for buyers?
Predicting the Market: Supply as a Key Indicator
Supply levels are a leading indicator of future price movements. For example:
1. Between 2018 to 2020, as supply increased, property prices largely stagnated.
2. From 2021 onwards, supply tightened and prices surged.
3. Now, with an influx of launches slated for 2025, developers face intense competition. This often results in more attractive pricing strategies, with some new launch units potentially priced close to resale properties—an uncommon but highly strategic opportunity for informed buyers.
Unlocking Hidden Value: New Launch vs. Resale
This opportunity isn’t limited to new projects. Our proprietary market framework identifies significant pricing gaps in the resale market, with some properties showing disparities of up to $1,000 per square foot compared to new launches.
The Bottom Line?
Savvy buyers who understand the supply cycle and look across both asset classes—new launches and resale—can unlock substantial value, even in a high-price environment.
By leveraging market insights and understanding how supply influences pricing, you can make informed, strategic property decisions—whether you're eyeing new launches or hidden gems in the resale market. Let us help you navigate these opportunities with clarity and confidence.
Connecting the two: Timing & Execution
"Sell High, Buy Low" is not just about individual transactions—it’s about aligning your actions with market dynamics. Selling during a peak provides the liquidity needed to reinvest during a low, enabling you to capitalize on opportunities others may miss.
For example:
Selling a property in 2025 at peak resale prices could provide the capital to purchase a competitively priced new launch during the supply glut. Where you might find some new launches pricing lower than private resale properties.
This cyclical approach ensures long-term financial growth and portfolio diversification. Of course, interest rates and government measures like higher ABSD or TDSR also influence market behavior, so it’s wise to factor these into your calculations.
Conclusion: Act Now to Maximize 2025's Opportunities
The property market is a dynamic ecosystem of opportunities for those who understand its cycles. By mastering the principles of "Sell High, Buy Low," you can make informed decisions that yield significant financial rewards.
2025 is a pivotal year, presenting the chance to sell properties at peak prices and reinvest in competitively priced new launches.
Don’t let emotional biases or uncertainty hold you back. Start planning today—evaluate your portfolio, consult experts, and position yourself to act decisively when the time comes. Let’s make 2025 the year you turn market insights into action and achieve your financial goals
