SINGAPORE -(Dow Jones)- The Singapore government said Friday that 10,450 residential units that were sold but are uncompleted were built under a deferred payment scheme as of Nov. 30.

Under the scheme, implemented during the property slump in 1997 and suspended in 2007, buyers of new properties were able to make a downpayment of 10% or 20%, with the rest due only when a project was completed - typically about three years later.
