The Financial Coconut Podcast HDB, Land Price, Grants, NOM, Expanded Rental Scheme. What's the plan? [TFC #GE2025 Specials 03 ft Alex Lee & Tan Ern Ser]
What if the keys to your future home hinge on policies being drafted right now?
In this #GE2025 Specials episode, we dive into the high-stakes world of Singapore’s 2025 housing reforms—a topic sparking hope, skepticism, and endless kopitiam debates. Will these bold new plans unlock affordable living, or are we facing another decade of frustration?
Highlights:
- Shocking gaps in current policies even your MP isn’t talking about.
- Why "innovation" might be a double-edged sword for first-time buyers.
- The hidden trade-offs between sky-high aspirations and ground-level reality.
We’re joined by
- Alex Lee, Chief Actuary
- IPS Sociologist & Policy Scholar, Prof Tan Ern Ser, who’s spent years dissecting what makes housing policies stick—or crumble.
- CMO and Author of 'No more bosses' Adrian Tan.
- Plus, your favourite Host, Reggie Koh (Chief Financial Coconut), brings his signature wit to ask the questions you’re too polite to voice.
Is this the dawn of a housing revolution… or just cleverly packaged déjà vu?
Tune in, before you head to the polling stations.
