Jesley, Alexa, and George from PropertyLimBrothers talk about the FED’s 15% interest rate cut could reshape the real estate market in 2025. With the rate reduction aimed at curbing inflation, the property market is buzzing with new opportunities. If you’re newly married, early in your career, and looking to make the smartest property move—this episode is for you.
They break down the impact of lower interest rates on property demand, discussing whether now is the time to buy or if waiting is a smarter strategy. Is the resale market about to heat up? How will enhanced housing grants and reduced loan-to-value ratios affect HDB buyers? Through the persona of a young couple, Wayne and Joanne—fresh graduates navigating their first big property decision—our team answers key questions like: Should you choose a BTO flat or resale HDB? What about a 2-bedroom condo? And how do you make sure your first property sets you up for future capital gains?
With engaging discussions on grants, market trends, and future-proofing your real estate decisions, this episode provides actionable insights tailored for those in the Spring of life. More on this episode!
