IOI will offer around 200-250 of The Trilinq's 755 units for the initial phase; it is looking at an early-bird average price of about $1,400-1,500 per square foot (after discounts). The VVIP preview is expected to begin today, with sales opening to others who have registered interest on Thursday, followed by a public launch on Friday.
The Trilinq, about 400 metres from The Clementi Mall and Clementi MRT Station, will comprise two 36-storey towers with an attic, and a 33-storey block.
An interesting architectural feature of The Trilinq is interlocking unit-types to allow selected two, three and four-bedroom units to enjoy a generous double-volume, six-metre floor-to-ceiling height in the living room. And for 26 four-bedroom apartments, the master bedroom will be double volume.
The project's 112 one-bedders will range from 538 sq ft to 603 sq ft. It will have 192 two-bedders, 346 three-bedders, 94 four-bedders and 11 penthouses (2,573 sq ft to 4,456 sq ft). The Trilinq will have a tennis court and three swimming pools.

Today's sales are opened to business associates, staff and purchasers of multiple units. About 20 groups are there today.
VVIP sales starts tomorrow.
Main sales starts from Friday.

Yes we had a glimpse of the prices today. Fortunately or unfortunately, it was roughly what we had guessed. Will update more later....

Hint: You will likely see $1m 1-bedroom units in Trilinq.

Not sure whether this is true:

IOI Group, which opened the doors at its Trilinq condo showflat in Clementi in the late-morning as planned, had sold 85 units by 2pm, according to the company. BT understands the final tally yesterday evening had not changed much from that. So far, the group has released 200 of the project's 755 units.

Is anyone familiar with the finishing quality of IOI development?

IOI Group, which opened the doors at its Trilinq condo showflat in Clementi in the late-morning as planned, had sold 85 units by 2pm, according to the company. BT understands the final tally yesterday evening had not changed much from that. So far, the group has released 200 of the project's 755 units.
The developer did not provide BT with an average psf price but sources suggest it could be somewhere around $1,400-$1,500 psf. Unit prices vary from $1,200 psf to $1,800 psf depending on whether the units have void space, which is counted as part of the strata area.

Typically, units with void areas have lower psf prices. About 38 per cent of The Trilinq's units have a generous double-volume, six-metre floor-to-ceiling height - mostly in the living room but in some cases in the master bedroom.
While some buyers would appreciate the spacious effect created by the void space, other potential buyers may not have seen the benefit of paying the price sought for such space which they consider unusable, suggested a property agent not associated with the project.

The project is being marketed by CBRE and DTZ.

IOI's top brass are also thought to have adopted a strategy of taking a longer period to sell out the 755-unit project, say over its construction period of three to 3 1/2 years, instead of gunning for a more immediate sell-out say in a month.

Another reason for the relatively slow first-day sales at The Trilinq is thought to be the Malaysian group's decision to process options only for buyers who were physically present at the showflat. IOI did not make any sales to proxies, adopting a more conservative approach than typical Singapore developers.

In all, the number of cheques collected earlier from potential buyers is said to be in the high-500 range, which means the percentage of these cheques translating to actual sales was in the low teens.

Earlier yesterday, SMSes from property agents were flying furiously about an impending imposition of a prescriptive 30 to 40 per cent mortgage servicing ratio (MSR) cap for private homes supposedly to be effective as early as today.

The Council for Estate Agencies (CEA) confirmed last night that it had received one complaint about a property agent who had sent an SMS to his clients. CEA has approached the estate agency to which he belongs to tell him not to do so.

"Under the Estate Agents Act, sales persons are required to provide factually correct information to their clients," said a CEA spokesman.

Separately, BT understands that the government is not planning to introduce a prescriptive MSR cap for private home purchases in the immediate future.
At The Trilinq, the lowest absolute price was fetched by a one-bedroom apartment of 538 sq ft that went for $855,000. This works out to $1,589 psf.

The lowest absolute price for a four-bedder was $1.82 million for a 1,518-sq-ft unit which includes void space. The price works out to about $1,200 psf.

developer pocket very deep and liquid, so dont need buyers booking fee. I think they could afford to wait a little and ride on JLD wave.

2 other projects nearby will be launching this year. next one is NEWEST next to hundred tree and then follow by JLD crown jewel. Come Apil also got one GLS next to faber crest condo.

IOI is a big plantation company and one of the big property developer in Malaysia. they have deep pockets. I recalled that for another JLD project - lakefront, they price in future price and took about 1 year to sell out. but i think now is not the right timing for the developer to use this method.

MCL now has 2 projects in JLD.

MCL was briefly caught in 08-09 time and base on history, they prefer to sell out than taking a wait and sell slowly approach.

Actually for JLD project you can afford to wait because there are so many mega projects around JLD TOP in 2014/2015. Come 2015/6, the entire place will be buzzing.

Tomorrow, we will get to see who are bidding for the commercial plot at venture ave.

the developer is really putting their price on high end. but if we compare apple to apple (similar unit size, pool facing, similar level) with D'leedon and Echelon, it is about S$200psf cheaper. quite reasonable, isn't it? Besides, the floor plan of Dleedon is much more efficient than D'Leedon.

although clementi is considered OCR, but the HDB price is quite comparable to Queenstown and redhill, meaning the market is there.

I am puzzled why no one says Echelon is over priced. It is only two stand alone building mah, with one side facing MRT track, th other facing the noisy Alexandra road. No famous primary school either, Crescent girls school? there are a lot of schools of similar standard all over singapore. Near Tanglin road? using my daughters word "who like to live in Orchard or China Town? no place to eat la".

In terms of rental, I guess the MM in trilinq will be quite comparable to that of echelon considering one north, NUS and science park are all near to trilinq.

echelon price ranges from 1700+~2200PSF, if trilinq ranges from 1600~1800, it is a bargain compared to Echelon?

talking about price, my hunch is that the property price cannot drop without a crisis, while some people tell me that it will drop in 2015 when the interest rates rise. any expert here can enlight what is the probability of interest rise by 2015? or interest will continue to keep low in the coming 10 years?

12-03-13, 17:40
for the benefit of the newcomers, the question to ask is under what circumstances do interest go up. on the back of weak economic fundamentals or strong fundamentals?

No one in the right mind will pay 1.7k psf for rental in Clementi and it is not even near MRT in the first place. 99 years, 10 mins walk to MRT, forget it. Own stay, still acceptable because you might like the area.

If you talk about rental, I rather pay 1.8 to 1.9k for Icon.

As for upside - Icon selling 2.2k or Clementi selling at 2k psf more feasible?

when I were rich ,will buy Icon 2-bedder. hopefully, it won't be too old at that time :)


No one in the right mind will pay 1.7k psf for rental in Clementi and it is not even near MRT in the first place. 99 years, 10 mins walk to MRT, forget it. Own stay, still acceptable because you might like the area.

If you talk about rental, I rather pay 1.8 to 1.9k for Icon.

As for upside - Icon selling 2.2k or Clementi selling at 2k psf more feasible?

is over supply considered as a crisis? :) interest rate can only go up and it cannot be kept at this level forever. Having said that it will likely rise on the backdrop of better economy, hence, fear of high unemployment coupled with higher interest situation will not likely happen...nothing impossible....just be prudent. :)


talking about price, my hunch is that the property price cannot drop without a crisis, while some people tell me that it will drop in 2015 when the interest rates rise. any expert here can enlight what is the probability of interest rise by 2015? or interest will continue to keep low in the coming 10 years?

I took the figures from the news. 1589 psf to 1800 psf. So I assume 1700psf is mid floor.

perhaps those prices are before discount. If they can sell at 1500-1600 in that area is consider a big achievement because 999 across AYE is only transacted at around 1300-1400psf (slightly bigger of course).

I think the price is after discount. Actually no discount at all. heard that the developer aimed to launch at that price end of last year.

the location and facility may explains the difference in trilinq and condo in west coast area.

Thirteens years ago, standing on the overhead bridge linking Ghim Moh and Holland village, I am wondering why there was a more than 10% difference in HDB prices between Ghim Moh and Holland village. there was only a overhead bridge distance. 40k difference for a 200k+ HDB, I prefered to walk across the bridge every day. actually, I crossed it less than once a month lah.. Until today, i think the more than 10% price difference is still there.

When coming back from the showflat of trilinq, facing the Parc condo opposite the AYE, I am puzzled again. In terms of direct distance to clementi MRT, Parc condo cannot be further than trilinq. I asked myself, shall I buy parc condo or hundred tree? The AYE scared me back.

then I give a call to an agent selling the Anchorage. The asking price is 1300+psf. I response promptly "so expensive?". the agent said, Queens sold at 1300-144psf lah, ancorage is FH, blah, blah... People are more incline to buy 99-year Queens than FH Anchrage, which means the so call FH is also rubish in a bull market, right....

location and facility, how much on earth are you worth in SG?

For the first phase, the developer launched only 200+ units, among which, more than half are facing MRT track. However, some are more than 100 meters away from MRT ( I tested, not very noisy) but some are only 40 meters away from Clementi avenue 6 (no way to test the noise level).

Trilliq worth more than UV in what sense ah? I thought the psf is higher compare to UV?
what I mean is that if UV is launched at 1350psf, it will be reasonable for trilinq to ask for a high price because the average price and rental around clementi and buona vista is much higher than TM, and there will be a lot PC around TM, while there are quite few in Clementi, but there will be more and more grade A offices in south west area.

I am wondering whether people in Clementi care about JLD or not, there are enough other attractions there other than JLD. as far as I know, even NTU proferssors perfer Clementi to Jurong although Jurong is much nearer to NTU.

of course, it would be excellent if IOI is willing to sell trilinq at 1300psf to give me some chance. too bad, it is way higher than I had expected.

If I were IOI, I would defiintely list down the number new projects and jobs which will be created by nearby JLD over the next 4 to 5 years, and perhaps even include a free feeder service to JLD to give the resident the impression that all those shops, mall etc at JLD is just at their doorstep.

Only worth it if it is a FH.

talking about FH or 99 lease, my observation is that FH makes more sense to landed. As for PC, even if it is FH, it will depreciate as much as 99 lease one when it gets old and sort of good facilities.

an example is Anchorage vs Queens.

Another example is Normanton park (99 year lease). Although Normanton park once dropped to as cheap as HDB, look at its current price. One word: Amazing!!!

conclusion: Location is more important. Another thing is LUCK.

DC33_2008
18-03-13, 11:17
I concur with you as location is one of the more important factors. JLD will only reach its fullest potential 15years later. Your LH property will left with fewer years of lease as compared to a FH. Furthermore, one is paying a FH price for a LH property.

Good luck if one bought an old 99lh project at the peak. Prices plunge alot more during next downturn compared to a FH project and may get caught for margin top up.

Location is important as well that is why geylang FH properties are cheaper than those nearby in D15

To be frank.. If anyone can afford that type of money for this type of condo, do they actually take public transport? I assume most should be car owner, then we should know the transport at Ave 6 is notorious to Jam.... If you come from Clementi Central also jam, I think the only way is from JE that seldom jam...

do not understand people. It seems there is still interest in this project but everyone talks and talks, never goes there to find the truth.

ok, I will give you a partial update on the first day situation.

there was a queque there that morning but the tentage was not as packed as UV (compared with the picture of UV in this forum), possibly because the selection of units was based on replacement (order of registered interest) instead of balloting and only one third of the stacks were open for selection.

I did not pay attention to other stacks, but the 85sqm 3-bedder of stack 9 and the two bedders of stack 12, which I am interested in, went very fast.
in the end, I bought a unit of stack 9, with 1500+psf at about 11am, After that, the lowest available in stack 9 is #19-09 (i mean the 85 sqm ones). and the lowest of stack 12 is also #19-12.

When I went there to sign the contract at 5:30pm, there were quite few people there, with only happy faces (from heart) of agents. one even could not help to shout "hua "lo, with her hand waving to her colleague. when she noticed that I was watching her, she smiled back at me.

My agent sold 3 units on that day.

I dare not to go back anymore (still feel painful at the price). Just wait for its TOP and see how.

What I dislike most is IOI's strategy to open the stacks slowly. Actually, I am also interested in 4-bedders of stack 22, but they were not available on that day.

do not understand people. It seems there is still interest in this project but everyone talks and talks, never goes there to find the truth.

ok, I will give you a partial update on the first day situation.

there was a queque there that morning but the tentage was not as packed as UV (compared with the picture of UV in this forum), possibly because the selection of units was based on replacement (order of registered interest) instead of balloting and only one third of the stacks were open for selection.

I did not pay attention to other stacks, but the 85sqm 3-bedder of stack 9 and the two bedders of stack 12, which I am interested in, went very fast.
in the end, I bought a unit of stack 9, with 1500+psf at about 11am, After that, the lowest available in stack 9 is #19-09 (i mean the 85 sqm ones). and the lowest of stack 12 is also #19-12.

When I went there to sign the contract at 5:30pm, there were quite few people there, with only happy faces (from heart) of agents. one even could not help to shout "hua "lo, with her hand waving to her colleague. when she noticed that I was watching her, she smiled back at me.

My agent sold 3 units on that day.

I dare not to go back anymore (still feel painful at the price). Just wait for its TOP and see how.

What I dislike most is IOI's strategy to open the stacks slowly. Actually, I am also interested in 4-bedders of stack 22, but they were not available on that day.

•All 241 shops in the 76,000 square metre mall have been leased ahead of its opening in Q2 2013.
•Jem® houses the first suburban outlets of international brands, including H&M, Books Kinokuniya and Victoria’s Secret.
•The crown jewel of the West offers a convenient city shopping experience as it is connected to the Jurong East MRT station.

Jem® by Lend Lease, Singapore’s 3rd largest suburban mall located in Jurong East, achieved 100% leased status for its 241 shops today.

The mall boasts a stellar line-up of fashion, beauty, food & beverage and lifestyle tenants which have chosen to locate their first suburban outlet in Jem®. These include international and homegrown brands such as Robinsons, H&M, Victoria’s Secret, Shu Uemura, Paris Baguette, Marché Bar & Bistro, Spageddies, Shin Kushiya and Books Kinokuniya.

Robinsons and H&M take prime spots in the mall with extensive shopfronts that cut across four and three levels of the mall respectively. Alongside these two anchor tenants, Cathay Cineplexes promises a premium theatre experience with ten screens that include two Platinum Suites, while Marks & Spencer and UNIQLO also boast double-storey stores to add to the amalgamation of fashion, lifestyle and entertainment options at Jem®.

“We are elated to achieve 100% tenancy well ahead of the mall’s opening. With Jem’s vibrant retail mix, we are poised to offer shoppers a unique experience comparable to shopping in the city, right at their doorstep,” enthused Mr Chris Brown, Development Director of Jem®.

Mr Afif Haddar, General Manager, Store Operations, from Sephora, one of the brands setting up its first suburban outlet in Jem®, said, “We chose to set up our first suburban outlet in Jem® because the mall’s positioning as a suburban mall that offers a downtown shopping experience appealed to us. We are confident that this unique quality of Jem® will facilitate our plans in extending our international brand experience to shoppers of new demographic groups.”

Hiroshi Sogo, Group Managing Director of Books Kinokuniya Pacific Asia, shared the significance of the brand's new outlet at Jem®. “Our new store at Jem® marks a double celebration for Kinokuniya Singapore. It is the first time in 14 years that we are opening a new bookshop and it also serves to highlight our sustainable growth strategy as we commemorate our 30th anniversary in Singapore this year. With Jem's prime location at Jurong Gateway and its strong retail mix, we believe our store at Jem® will enable us to serve more book and magazine lovers for many years to come.”

On the beauty front, global cosmetics stores Victoria’s Secret and Shu Uemura are also expanding their foothold to the Western part of Singapore, with the latter opening its first suburban standalone store at Jem®. Victoria’s Secret’s store interior features sophisticated elements such as black cherry fixtures, lit focal walls, a gallery of iconic black and white imagery, and a video wall featuring Victoria’s Secret Supermodel video footage, showcasing products in an environment that is sexy, sophisticated and forever young.

Popular restaurant chains such as Marché Bar & Bistro, Din Tai Fung, Imperial Treasure Seafood Restaurant and Sushi Tei have also chosen to open new outlets at Jem®, offering their menu of delectable dishes that many have come to love. Marché Bar & Bistro will be bringing an exquisite selection of freshly prepared food and beverage to Jem®. Both wine and beer lovers will enjoy the quality wine and German beer selection specially imported by Marché.

For everyday lifestyle needs, shoppers can look forward to seeing household brands such as FairPrice Xtra, Cookhouse by Koufu, as well as global lifestyle products store MUJI.

With its wide spectrum of retail offerings and direct connection to Jurong East MRT station, Jem®, located at 50 Jurong Gateway Road, is slated to take shopping in the suburbs to a whole new level when it opens in Q2 2013.

not sure if they will be always so lucky.

Anyway, I think the design of Trilinq is outstanding not only in the West, but also among the new launches over the island. Hope IOI can live up my expextation, now that they are so bullish.

Went there last week, think this is the WEAKEST launch for mass market condo in the past few years.

But I must say the loft concept is refreshing for a Clementi project!

The 2BR loft is nonsensically designed with a strange column blocking out most views from the living room.

If Clementi is hitting 1,400-1,500, Queenstown will be $1,750, Echeleon will be 2,000, lower delta 2,200, Cosmopolitan 2,500 RV 2,800 ...

how come, the land of Trilinq is around $570 psf, while the land of Echelon is
$740 (or $780?) psf, and the lands were bid at almost the same time.
The block density of Trilinq is smaller than Echelon, and there are more facilities in Trilinq, yet Trilinq must be sold $500 psf cheaper than Echelon?

I am inclined to believe the converse - hdb prices determines the settings for mass market condo prices .

Agree. the fact is that a 85sqm, 10 years HDB costs 650k in Clementi, then a new PC of the same size costs 1.3M. That's the norm across the island. Some PCs have even wider gap.

By the way the developer of Trilinq IOI is spinning off its profitable property arm and should be raising funds at its IPO. So those hoping for a discount or crash for Trilinq can forget about it:

Hmm... Quantum play I guess. 2BR at less than $1.2m sounds very reasonable (despite $psf above $1600).

We still have units at less than $1300 psf but not moving fast cos quantum is relatively much larger (e.g. The 4-bedders at $1.8m).

Do not think there is landed below 2M nowadays.

The pain for the 4 bedders in Trilinq is the Loft structure. Not every people wants to pay so much for air space.

For me, I keep wondering what to do with the loft if the light there goes out of order. Most ladders in the market can not reach it.

if you buy a new or a 10-15yr old LH99, it is still ok in my opinion. not those 40-50yrs old one...as the mkt pick up, the gap of LH and FH cannot widen too much as affordability will eventually comes in again which balances off or close the gap.

Therefore, potential is there as long as it is not too old as I describe. I have not seen any 30yr sold unit for eg, that is not appreciating....anyway, the prices also reflect the potential. If it is not that potential, it will not be too exp and if it is potential, then obviously it will be higher in prices and vice versa.

Very soon, the bank might have to change the rules on loan as tenure might be twicked to reflect land scarity in Sin. LH60 might be a norm in future...:2cents:


Affordability is one but the potential is also important.

The actual value of the concrete house/apt/condo has depreciated with the land price appreciated. So the nett effect is still positive in most of the properties in Singapore. The FH land appreciates a lot more than the LH land if everything else is similar.

agree....given a choice, FH is preferred.:p and i prefer landed than condo as i can't think of the high psf nowadays....i mean for own stay purpose.

personally I will not touch any LH landed property for investment because during crisis LH landed will usually suffer the biggest correction, due to its lease and also poor rental demand.

Those landed property in Jurong area were sold at around 1.5M during launch (IIRC), post dot com bubble, they was transacted at around 800K.

However if you are buying for own stay, then dont need to talk about gain or appreciation.

Actually this is quite an attractive site, the only problem is see is the lack of branding for IOI and the lack of emphasis on JLD.

If I were IOI, I would defiintely list down the number new projects and jobs which will be created by nearby JLD over the next 4 to 5 years, and perhaps even include a free feeder service to JLD to give the resident the impression that all those shops, mall etc at JLD is just at their doorstep.

IOI should engage me as their marketing consultant on this project.

LH is a time bomb to me. You can feel it ticking away even for self stay. Someone will always propose en bloc regardless of LH or FH. Ultimately it's the location. If it is great, you will always have developers wanting your land if the price is right. FH can keep for next generation if it's landed. Else it might be en bloc.

Actually, I do not think it is a failure up to now because the developer has launched only 200 units. My guess is it will be more than half sold if all the units are launched at one batch.

IOI is a greedy developer. I think she is initially very bullish and has deep pocket, therefore, decides to sell in such a way.

But with all these CMs and the TDSR constraint, cum with its big quantum, I am not sure whether the second batch can move or not, especially the useless loft units.

Hahaha these developers are all giving the lame excuse of "we only launched xxx units that's why we actually did very well". So goes for Skywoods. So goes for Glades.

My bet is, even if you launch all the units, the sales will not be very much different.

Yup, and from the latest URA website, they only manage to sell 1 unit in August. I believe the price is too high.

sunboy, has IOI failed to give you commission? You are the creator of this thread, and now you speak so highly of J-gateway yet so ill of this one.

Don't you think this one is anyhow worth more than J-gateway?

Hahaha commission collected liao and still hoping to collect more.
Nope, did not speak ill about this one. Location of Trilinq is still nice and tranquil. I am addressing this thing about "we launched only xxx units, so we sold how well how well", and speaking straight from my heart - not just about Trilinq, but many other projects too.

Yes agreed that Trilin's location is better for own stay, but J Gateway confirmed win hands-down for rental yield. Anyway I am not the marketing agent of J Gateway, so it's again just my truthful opinions.

Hi guys,

About $20k to $50k drop depending on which unit:

1BR from $796k #02-24 ($1480psf)
2BR from $1.085m #05-18 ($1441psf)
3BR from $1.301m #03-14 ($1390psf)
4BR from $1.506m #04-19 ($1358psf)

I am not sure if it is appropriate to discuss this here:
But why don't you guys consider Thomson Three?
i) Only about 180m to the new MRT station and Thomson Plaza. So many other eateries and amenities within walking distance.
ii) So much closer to city. Classifed as a "city-fringe (RCR)" property and not a mass-market (OCR) property.
iii) MacRitchie and Peirce reservoirs and nature reserve at the doorstep.
iv) High-end finishing such as NATURAL marble and timber.
v) All 2br/ 3br/ 4br faces either greenery or pool view now.
vi) North-South Expressway about 2km away also coming soon.
vii) No other government land sales at Thomson in sight.

Prices of Thomson Three? You'd be pleasantly surprised. E.g.
1BR 495 sqft #05-16 495 sqft $680k ($1373 psf)
2BR 710 sqft #07-14 $976k ($1375 psf)
3BR 1044 sqft #03-05 $1.269m ($1215 psf)
3BR Premium 1141 sqft #03-21 $1.455m ($1275 psf)
4BR 1485 sqft #02-08 $1.85m ($1246 psf)

Yes you might have realised the prices of Thomson Three, although at a more prime and 'atas' city-fringe location, are even cheaper than many new launches at Bt. Panjang, AMK, Tanah Merah, etc.

Thomson Three is already 40% sold on the first day (today).
Call me at 96882200 (Jonathan of CBRE) now to see the showflat? Before all units are sold?
No buying obligations at all. :)

For those who are interested to see the comparison of prices between now and then, I just did a summary of the 2-bedders for a client:

Note that the higher floors you go, the bigger the changes.
Also, the bigger unit types you go, the bigger the changes.
