Property is a long-term investment. Inland scare Singapore, the value should appreciate if your time horizon is at least a decade from now. The potential for EC even is higher due to the initial investment outlay differences from a private condo.
If buying an EC unit is within your financial means, I’m suggesting you go ahead and book a unit if it that meet your needs. Then while you stay in your dream home, you can enjoy on its capital appreciation potential to the future whether or not if you wish to upgrade or cash out in the long term.
