They also urged real estate companies who have high levels of leverage and have accumulated unsold inventory to be more mindful.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOngoing uncertainties in the economic outlook and a softening labour market could negatively affect households\u2019 incomes and their demand for property,\u201d explained MAS.<\/p>\n<p>The hiring sentiment has already shifted because of the growth slump, providing fewer employment opportunities compared to the number of unemployed. The report also revealed that more workers are now being placed on temporary layoff and short work-weeks, despite the low retrenchments.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/9000-homes-up-for-grabs-in-singapores-southern-waterfront\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>More: 9,000 homes up for grabs in Singapore\u2019s southern waterfront<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmid the possibility of an extended period of sluggish GDP growth, wage increases are expected to ease, which could weaken households\u2019 debt servicing ability,\u201d added MAS.<\/p>\n<p>The report also indicated an influx of housing units coming, even with the build-up of unsold units. During the third quarter, unsold units for launched projects, excluding executive condominiums, multiplied to about 4,377 units, compared to 2,172 units in the same quarter the previous year.<\/p>\n<p>The central bank said the growth will worsen in the medium term, as developers launch projects sold between 2017 and 2018. With more unsold inventory, it could put \u201cdownward pressure on prices in the medium term, if unaccompanied by a corresponding rise in demand.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monetary Authority of Singapore blames the growing number of unsold units, as well as the unpredictable
