Have a broad perspective

I want to share a story to show the narrow perspective of many people. These people cannot see an issue from the perspective of the other person. They can only see it from their selfish perspective.

It is a common weakness.

Instead, profit from the land sales, all the GST from building and purchasing of materials, foreign worker's levy and Dod knows what. Who pays from all these expenses? The Singaporean buyers paid all of it, as foreigners cannot buy them.; June 02, 2020 7:02 PM

Condo developer beats ABSD, sells all 16 units in 3 days

Just three days after launching an unexpected fire sale, Prominent Land, the developer of a freehold District 10 condominium 38 Jervois, managed to sell the project’s 16 remaining units in three days.
The promotion for 38 Jervois began on 1 June 2020, with Prominent Land offering a steep 13 to 24% discount of the original list price for buyers until 14 June. The project had received its Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) back in March 2019.
Buyer response to the discounts was overwheming. On 3 June, the developer declared all 16 remaining units have been sold. This was also the first time since June 2019 that the project recorded a sale.
“A diverse group of buyers”:
Explaining why all 16 units were snapped up in a matter of days, Tracy Teo, head of the 38 Jervois project team from ERA Realty, told 99.co that the discounts offered by the developer were not the sole factor.
“The price is definitely a big draw, coupled with a great location in District 10 and freehold status,” she said. “Buyers in the market all recognised that this is an awesome buy.”
The discount also attracted a diverse group of buyers, from HDB dwellers to private property owners, Tracy added. “The buyers bought mainly for investment, although a few were planning for their own stay.”
ERA was the exclusive agency for marketing 38 Jervois.

Promotion was ‘all or nothing’
In a Business Times article published on 3 June, Prominent Land revealed that the rationale for launching the fire sale—with discounts totalling $7.1 million—was primarily to avoid paying a $4.8 million Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD) due this year

Located at Jervois Road in District 10, the 27-unit, five-storey 38 Jervois had originally sold 11 units since its launch in late 2016, with only one sale recorded in 2019.

Shortly afterwards, Prominent Land launched the fire sale promotion for 38 Jervois for the 16 remainder units, which consisted of the 2-bedroom, 2-bedroom + study and 3-bedroom unit types

Biggest discount worth nearly $550,000
For the fire sale, the smallest discount, in number terms, was $275,000 for a three-bedroom, 818 square foot (sq ft) fully-furnished and decorated showflat unit. This unit was sold at a discounted price of $1.82 million, or $2,223 per square foot (psf).

The biggest discount, at $547,320, is for a three-bedroom, 915 sq ft unfurnished unit on the fourth floor. The unit was sold at a discounted price of $1.92 million, or $2,102 per square foot.
Just last year, a 915 sq ft unit on the second floor and with the same configuration transacted for $2.28 million, or $2,492 psf.

About the neighbourhood
The condo itself was previously a bungalow sited on a generous 1,378 square metre (sq m) plot of land. Back in February 2015, Prominent Land bought the site for $25 million to develop its first boutique condo project.
38 Jervois is located in a predominantly landed and low-rise neighbourhood in Singapore’s prime District 10. Newly launched condos in the area include the 55-unit Petit Jervois by luxury developer SC Global (TOP: 2022), and the 45-unit Jervois Prive, the maiden project by Midas Land.
So far, Petit Jervois has seen two out of its units sold at a price of $2,892 psf (November 2018) and $2,801 psf (July 2019) respectively. There has yet to be a buyer for Jervois Prive, which is priced in the $2,700 to $3,000 psf range.
Resale prices of freehold condos in the Jervois Road area, in particular, differ vastly from that of new launches, mainly given their age difference.

Anonymous said...: Petit Jervois and Jervois Prive is not selling. 38 Jervois 20% discount. Does that mean the properties around the area has gone down 20%? Resale in Jervois properties has been on the market for a really long time because of the sticking to the price.; June 13, 2020 11:32 PM
