Privatized HUDC estate Chancery Court on Dunearn Road in prime District 11 was sold en bloc for $401.777 million. The price achieved was 6% above the reserve price of $390 million, according to marketing agent OrangeTee Advisory, which brokered the sale.
Chancery Court has been a sought-after development among parents who want to register their children into Anglo Chinese School, given that the ACS Barker Road campus is located just across the road.
Including a differential premium and lease top-up premium of $182.4 million, the price translates to $1,610 psf per plot ratio.
The existing Chancery Court is made up of 136 residential and eight strata commercial units. Upon successful conclusion of the collective sale, owners of the residential units can expect proceeds of $1.8 million to $3.5 million. Meanwhile, the owners of the strata commercial units will walk away with $934,000 to $4.7 million, depending their unit size.
A total of 729 private new homes (excluding ECs) were sold in April, compared to a total of 654 units launched in the market during that month. This is the 12th consecutive month when sales have exceeded launches.
There were two new launches in April, The Verandah Residences and Harbour View Gardens. These developments have sold more than 82% and 91% of their units respectively.
Judging from the sales momentum, an average take-up rate of 70% appears to be the norm. An average of 800 to 1,500 units are expected to be launched for sale every month for the rest of 2018.
At least 21 (70%) out of 30 units released in New Futura’s second phase of sales have been snapped up as at May 15, four days after the developer City Developments Limited (CDL) opened the preview.
The units were sold at an average price of $3,500 psf, higher than the average price of $3,350 psf achieved in the first phase of sales.
Located on Leonie Hill Road in prime district 9, New Futura comprises two 36-storey towers and is CDL’s most luxurious project to date. About 72% of the buyers in the second phase are foreigners and permanent residents from China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and South Korea.
