Local architect can produce good and functional design. Does not need renowed architect. Should be looking at $1600-1800psf depending on size of units.

:scared-1: :scared-1:

When metropolitan was launched in Nov 2006, prices started from 511k for the 2 bedders only:

Prices at the project range from $511,000 for a 778 sq ft two-bedder on the fifth floor to $1.45 million for a 1,700 sq ft, four-bedroom unit on the 42nd floor.

This works out to an average of $780 per sq ft (psf), compared with about $750 psf for nearby Tanglin View, a 99-year leasehold condominium by Far East Organization that was launched in 1997 and still has 30 of its 384 units unsold.

1 bdrm 452 sqft 68 units
2 bdrm 732 sqft 152 units
3 bdrm compact 861 sqft 68 units
3 bdrm std is 1001 - 1130 sqft 68 units
3 bdrm premium 1292 - 1313 sqft 72 units

Most units are small to keep quantum low.

Any guess what's the psf for 3 bdrm?

There are no windows in the kitchen for the 3 & 4 premium. The only outdoor light source is via the windows in the utility room.

if basing on CDL, during vip preview the price will be the best, then the price might be adjusted upward by a few percentage thereafter.

probably too minute to notice it but makes a lot of difference in profit for developer

Oh u mean if you are a developer invite?

If its CDL or one of those listed developer company, there wont be a difference. Even if its CDL staff purchase, they are also buying at the same VVIP sales price.

My opinion:

1 bedder: stack 3
2 bedder: stack 10

North facing and try to get higher than Tanglin View.

The South facing has poorer view and facing MRT track. Remember that it is an overland track not underground. The noise can be :beats-me-man:

Although the direct line measurement of distance from MRT station is less than 200m but I don't think there is a way to access the MRT station unless you walk one 3 sides of a rectangle out onto Alexandra Road and round the corner (unless there is a future access path in the future from Alexandra View).

Maybe its uniquely Singaporean......

Many hundreds (maybe thousands for the day?) braved the rain, lighting and thunder for the pre-preview today. Showroom packed with no seats available most of the time. Looked like all locals and amazing that locals do not seem to run out of money and units do not seem to run out of people to buy or rent.

The word is that this will be relatively cheap bec surrounding new plots will be even more costly, so better grab before it is too late.

Was told many cheques have been received and for the small units balloting will be required. Finishing looked so-so, as expected the rooms for the 732 sqfeet 2 bedders looked very small. Its > 500 units in about 110,000 sqfeet land.

But "cheap" is so relative. For the smaller units (at least for 1rm), the indicative prices start from 1.7pfs and likely reach >2kpfs by the time it reaches the 42th floor. And this is not even in the city. And so we understand that the prices for the surrounding plots will go much higher than these in the near future and these prices are cheap.

Some prophets in this forum have long prediced the day will come that OCR/RCR will touch >2000pfs. Looks like it is happening sooner rather than later.

For those who are interested, better go visit the showroom to place your cheques bec based on showroom crowd, this one looks hot.

The word is that this will be relatively cheap bec surrounding new plots will be even more costly, so better grab before it is too late.

Was told many cheques have been received and for the small units balloting will be required. Finishing looked so-so, as expected the rooms for the 732 sqfeet 2 bedders looked very small. Its > 500 units in about 110,000 sqfeet land.

But "cheap" is so relative. For the smaller units (at least for 1rm), the indicative prices start from 1.7pfs and likely reach >2kpfs by the time it reaches the 42th floor. And this is not even in the city. And so we understand that the prices for the surrounding plots will go much higher than these in the near future and these prices are cheap.

Some prophets in this forum have long prediced the day will come that OCR/RCR will touch >2000pfs. Looks like it is happening sooner rather than later.

For those who are interested, better go visit the showroom to place your cheques bec based on showroom crowd, this one looks hot.

Ascentia sky unit sizes are considered too big in today's standard. Shrink the size by 30% and increase the price by 30% is the right formula.

Alexandra Road area = new hot spot. There are a few more GLS plots to launch after this one.

Tanglin View, Tanglin Regency, Met, Ascentia Sky - all huat!

(hint - go re-look d'Leedon - in spite of finishings below average you can always do your own internal renovation - marble, timber flooring etc after all the units are not huge so relatively price not so bad. The blocks are shaping up nicely now).

Quite likely to get good response for these projects.

When grandma, grandpa, auntie, uncle and all the children are queuing up to buy, perhaps it is about time to start worrying.

Last year, my agent tried to persuade me to let go my unit in this locality for 1100+ psf. Good thing the CM came and saved me. Stopped me selling as I would not be able to repurchase elsewhere due to the CM.

The question is not whether Echelon 1-2 room will be a sell out, the question is whether it wil be within hours or days.

It all depends on pricing.
The very high floors may hit 2000pfs. For the 1 room, 2000pfs is still below 1m.

I still believe the magical figure of $1m will cause some buyers to bite for 1 and 2bedders.

A million look affordable nowadays and not to mention 1 bedder high floor with orchard view at $2k psf only works out to be ~$900k. :)

Confirm! These are the naive type who sure get "con"vinced when u ask them "You want this unit ? If not, someone else would liuke to buy it?" Then family cheong home to get cheque. This is the power of cheque collection and balloting.

Office Boy seen more than 1,000 showflats liao, so quite sure this one sure sell a big chunk during preview. Because developer and agents know once the intial cheongster style is over, there are not many people willing to pay record prices for an area anymore.

it will be interesting whether enough buyers are prepared to pay close to 2000psf for 1br since Alexis just broke that

anyway 68 units not a lot

1 br stack 13 likely 1850 to 2100 psf but it would be blocked by another development. Stack 3 will be the one cross 2000 psf. High floor (> 20) will be > 2200 psf.

Wow! That is much higher than the indicative price of $2k psf for >40flr of a 1bedrm mentioned to me when I visited the showroom on sat.

Indeed indicative :doh:

The pricing is everyone guess. CDL marketing strategy is great, lots of smoke to set stage for 28 dec. If the price release is lower than rumor price, it will be a sold out project for 1 & 2 br. 3 & 4 br will take a while if pricing is set too high.

Stack 10 is also good. Balloting can be very pressurising. Imagine waited in the queue for so long will just get a unit. Playing on Kiasu mentalilty of people.

Feedback only 1, 2, 3 compact br low mid floor hot, the rest respond so so. Quite a lot of buyers backup due to high psf quoted by agents. Lets see if these r true. Whether CDL over confident that mkt has so many suckers willing to take record breaking price units.

This is how the marketing agents "con"vince people to buy.
Just to share with you, I have been to one of these 200 units on sales collected 400 cheques previews.

Guess what ? at the end of the day, only abt 30% were sold.
There were many seasoned investors there who saw the price and withdraw the cheque.

Office Boy is one of them ... haha! Self Praise ...

Borrowing cost is low, so developer not worried. But I honestly think CDL should take their time to milk this only. Perhaps starts with lower floor units and then keep those premium units on higher floor for later launch.

I think Singland and Wingtai projects will change the landscape around that area.

My agent told me she received only 4 cheques for Echelon whereas she received 20 over cheques for Kovan Regency few mths ago before CM5. Could be due to less buyers now, or more competitions from fellow agents who are all fighting for a piece of meat esp in an env where there r v few launches now.

Likely to follow the trend of Bartley Residences whereby the sales was driven by the launch of Sky Habitat. This sales most probably will be driven by the next plot's condo launch.

Different price point. If echelon agents received 20 cheques, I think we will see another CM atthe turn of the year.
