Very high pfs

probably around 2 to 2.5% for smaller units

the number of rental adverts had been decreasing so i am assuming despite the low yield, at least it is able to be rented out.

so far there have been 2 3-bedders rented out at 5,300 and 5,400 (caveats lodged). assuming after discount prices are at 2.4m+, yield is indeed 2.5%.

the more decent sized 2-bedders (800+ sq ft) were rented out at 4k and 4.2k. at a discounted price of just under 2m, that's also around 2.5% yield.

smaller "2 bedroom" (538 sq ft) units had been rented out at 2.6 to 3k with a mode of 4 units at 2.8k. prices sold ranged from 1.228m to 1.329m. using the average, yield is also 2.6%. these 2 bedrooms are sold out though.

left with final 1 5 bedder #03-01 asking for the same price.

discount is not a lot but seems enough to start moving some of the units. The current discount seems like up to $100k (of course $100k off is for the penthouses).

that's the thing, but still able to move. while not MM, these units are smaller than the typical CCR big units. 1066 sq ft 3 bedder (that's the size of a 2 bedder at rivergate), 1830sq ft for 5 bedder, similarly, rivergate's 4 bedders on average are bigger than that.

the selling point of this project is proximity to the future stevens mrt interchange.

do note that i m vested in the developer, sing holdings, so whatever i write here may be biased. :)

by buying the developer, i'm effectively buying robin residences at 230psf, not 2300psf. 90% discount. hahahaha.

Bro, u are good.
at 2300pfs how to have upside in next 10 years, MRT already up, another interchange no difference
If there is a big mall, cinemas, etc etc, maybe
Look at Glyndebourne opposite, bigger land area, exclusive units
2000-2300pfs in 2010 before bull run, look at prices now.

indeed glyndebourne looks more comfortable in a sense (if not facing the road) but the current market favours smaller units and closer proximity (even crossing that big junction does make a difference with regards to proximity to the mrt interchange). In the end, Robin Resi is competing with those along robin road area and turns out that this project is the least boutique and the tennis court which they managed to squeeze in on the rooftop actually makes it the most "complete" condo in the area. 2mins walk to cold storage and subway also helps i guess. looking at the caveats, most of the units were rented out rather quickly (albeit at very low rental yield, at least can easily be rented out).

agree current market favours the 3 roomers at 700-800 sfeet or 2 roomers at 500 sqfeet
still puzzled at robin's prices, low rise with limited open space
those condos right next to united square down the road are even cheaper

as for that scgs junction, there should be exits at SCGS when new mrt interchange is up

those are more mass market at 700 sq ft 3 bedders?

there are a group of buyers who only want brand new. ie first hand from developer. there are no brand new condos near united square although most are relatively new.

discount is not a lot but seems enough to start moving some of the units. The current discount seems like up to $100k (of course $100k off is for the penthouses).

the peak psf for this project so far was 2518psf for a 409 sq ft studio

ROBIN RESIDENCES 07 Robin Drive #05-21 38sq m $1030000 2518psf 14-JAN-2016

and for 3 bedder:

ROBIN RESIDENCES 01 Robin Drive #04-02 104sq m $2767000 2472psf 11-DEC-2015

so there is already some discount. they actually sold the project at 22xxpsf to 24xxpsf in 2014 and much of 2015. the top 8 psfs from 2479psf to 2518psf were actually achieved in 2016 albeit all on 409 sq ft studios.

for the next 18 highest psf from 2421psf to 2477psf, only 1 unit was sold in 2014 and the rest were in 2015 and 2016. this included the 3 bedder mentioned above and a 4 bedder which cost 3.586m.

they had sold about 70% of the project before deciding to offer these small discounts for the remaining 30% this month.

bro, Robin Resi is better value compared to this not even freehold lol:

Agree that Highline is expensive
But comparison high risk condo vs low rise condo always debatable
A super high floor in a very high rise condo pfs will naturally be very high based on views and top of the world feeling that might excite some
Based on FH and LH, robin definitely more worth it
But both are expensive nonetheless

its all relative
If we compare with Echelon at Alexandre 1 stop away from Highline, their studio unit at 41st floor is almost 2500pfs
Then these 2 before cheap :greedy_dollars:

Super high floor condo unit can commend super high psf???

That give me an an idea though, that is developers should just build 50 or more storeys high OCR condos and sell at super high price (higher than CCR and much better profits)! :tongue3:

Proof of concept already

If not how did Echelon 41st floor hit almost 2500pfs from 2nd floor onwards 1800pfs+

In future, condos probably 50 to 80 stories high

Nearer the clouds, higher the pfs, better than going under the ground

Possible to go up to 90 floors only because above this height Singapore is blinded by the Building.

You also don't want to stay there because you will receive a lot of radio wave.

so that justifies paying high psf for a 5 storey development like robin residences right? the future en-bloc potential is huge based on 50 storeys lol.

probably because of SSD, launched in Jan 2013
think very hard for buyers to achieve profits
also hard for Robin and those highly priced condos during property peak

of course anything possible for the next property bull run

u are right, the challenge is to see resale transactions
if there are buyers willing to buy resale 2000-2500 pfs, then perceived value will be set.

But honestly 2500pfs for alexandre locale is high
thats why the assumption is that premium must be the high floor view

echelon buyers bought just before the final measures. some may be keen to cut loss if they had bought on hype and don't really need the unit that they bought. 4 year SSD coming to an end soon so some may start selling and depressing the price.
