These flats make up more than a third of about 6,900 BTO flats to be offered in the June 2026 BTO Sales Exercise

HDB will offer 2,520 Build-To-Order (BTO) flats with wait times of around three years or less in the upcoming June 2026 BTO sales exercise, providing more options for homebuyers who wish to get their flats sooner. These flats, to be offered across three projects in Sembawang and Ang Mo Kio, will make up more than a third of about 6,900 flats to be launched in the June BTO sales exercise.

2 Of the three projects, two are Shorter Waiting Time (SWT) projects in Sembawang, which have wait times of less than 3 years. Sembawang Portico will have a wait time of 2 years and 7 months, while Sembawang Brook will have a wait time of 2 years and 9 months. The third project, Kebun Baru Ridge in Ang Mo Kio, will have a wait time of 3 years and 1 month.

3 To offer flats with shorter wait times, HDB works closely with other government agencies in early planning to identify and prioritise project sites available earlier. This enables us to bring forward the design and planning process so that construction can commence even before the project is launched for sale. By the time flat applicants book a unit in such projects, construction would be well underway. In this way, we shorten the waiting time for flat buyers, while maintaining the quality of our flats.

Sembawang Portico (wait time of 2 years and 7 months) & Sembawang Brook (wait time of 2 years and 9 months)

4 Sembawang Portico and Sembawang Brook are located in the new Sembawang North estate.

5 Sembawang Portico, bounded by Admiralty Lane and Sembawang Drive, will comprise three residential blocks, including an integrated block with sold and rental flats. The project will offer 875 units of 2-room Flexi, 3-room, 4-room and 5-room flats for sale.

6 Sembawang Brook, bounded by Admiralty Street and Sungei Sembawang, will comprise five residential blocks, including a rental block. The project will offer 1,160 units of 2-room Flexi, 3-room, 4-room, 5-room and 3Gen flats for multi-generation families who wish to live together for mutual care and support.

7 Residents of Sembawang Portico and Sembawang Brook, which are adjacent to each other, can look forward to earlier access to amenities such as cooked food, childcare centres, minimart and bus services. These amenities will be operational about six months after the first batch of residents collect their keys, under new measures by the multi-agency BTO Coordination Committee¹. They can also visit the nearby Sun Plaza for more dining and retail options, or head to Bukit Canberra, an integrated sports and community hub next to Sembawang MRT station. The hub houses a hawker centre, polyclinic, and recreational facilities such as an indoor sports hall, ActiveSG gym and swimming complex.

Upcoming BTO Sales Exercise

10 Apart from Sembawang Portico, Sembawang Brook and Kebun Baru Ridge, four other projects located in Ang Mo Kio, Bishan, Bukit Merah and Woodlands will be offered in the June BTO sales exercise. More details on the projects, including their classification categories, will be released when the sales exercise commences.

¹ Improvements to allow residents in new large-scale BTO estates to enjoy earlier access to key amenities were first announced by MND during the Committee of Supply 2026. These measures are aimed at shortening the time between the completion of flats and the readiness of key amenities so that residents can enjoy them soon after they move in.
