Design, Build and Sell Scheme (DBSS)

What is DBSS? What is Design, Build & Sell Scheme (DBSS) Flats?

DBSS flats are public housing flats developed by Private Developer.

The successful developer will undertake the entire development from planning, design, and construction, to the sale of the flats directly to eligible buyers.

DBSS is a class of housing type between HDB flats and Executive Condos (EC) / private condos DBSS are generally located in mature estates and in good locations Flats under DBSS will be offered to buyers under similar HDB eligibility conditions to BTO's

Upon completion of the building, the developer will hand over the entire development site to HDB for lease administration, and to the Town Council for maintenance of the common areas and car parks.

The design will have to maintain open access to common properties.

There will be no fencing and no facilities such as swimming pool, gymnasium and tennis courts.

Ethnic Integration Policy is applicable

Just like BTO’s, there is an income ceiling of $10,000 per household
