Design, Build and Sell Scheme

Design, Build and Sell Scheme (abbreviation: DBSS) was introduced by the Housing and Development Board in 2005. Flats built under the scheme are meant for public housing and developed by private developers. They are built with better designs and in sites such as Tampines, Ang Mo Kio and Bishan.
