7,970 BTO Flats, Seven Projects

Published 1 October 2026

The number to remember is 7,970. That is how many flats are offered in this October's BTO exercise, spread across seven projects, according to a review by Stacked Homes. Here is how the total breaks down.

Bedok's Bayshore has two projects, with 860 and 1,640 flats, which together make up 2,500 homes, the largest single location in the exercise. Toa Payoh's Caldecott follows with 1,430 flats, and Yishun's Chencharu has 1,580. Sembawang North offers 1,310, Tengah 710 and Mattar in Geylang 440, the smallest of the seven. Add them up and you reach 7,970.

The flat types are as notable as the counts. Most projects include 2-room Flexi and 4-room flats, while Tengah offers the widest mix, from 2-room to 5-room, along with 3Gen flats. The Toa Payoh project includes Community Care Apartments, and the review calls it a likely Prime-classified project. Mattar has no 3-room flats at all. Tengah's launch is also the first BTO there in three years.

What is the relevance to an executive condominium buyer? Executive condominiums and BTO flats are aimed at overlapping groups of households, so a big BTO exercise broadens the set of choices people compare. In the north of the island, Chencharu and Sembawang North together offer 2,890 flats. The review notes that Sembawang North lacks a nearby MRT station, which is the sort of practical detail that can steer buyers toward projects with stronger transport links.

Clovelle of Woodlands is a 99-year leasehold executive condominium in District 25, developed by Sim Lian. It is planned for about 560 homes, Woodlands South MRT on the Thomson-East Coast Line is around 490 metres away, and the project is in its registration phase. The location page sets out the walking route and the surroundings.

Numbers like these describe supply, not demand or prices. Application volumes, ballot odds and eligibility are separate questions that the totals cannot answer, and a household should review current HDB rules before planning around any one outcome.

It is worth keeping the totals in perspective. Eight thousand flats sounds large, but it is spread across seven locations, and each project serves a different neighbourhood and household type. The right choice for any family depends on where they need to be.

Read together, the figures suggest breadth more than any single pattern. Four of the seven projects offer more than 1,300 flats each, while three are smaller, so there is room both for large townships and for more compact launches. Looking at the per-project mix of flat types, together with the transport notes in the review, helps a household narrow the list quickly.

It is also worth remembering that the review was published ahead of the exercise, so details such as flat counts and unit mix can be refined by HDB. The official announcement is the place to confirm the final numbers before relying on any of them.
