SALES of new private homes plunged last month to just 811 units - well down on September's numbers and a clear sign that the Government's cooling measures have taken hold.
The decline also marks the third straight monthly contraction since August.
October's sales were down from the 1,143 units sold in September and 1,805 in August, although they were still about six times the sales done in the same month last year, according to the Urban Redevelopment Authority yesterday.
