Beware...

Shouldn't it be more rooms better? Can charge more for hourly rates. I know of one man did die want to rent 5 bedroom terrace at Langsat, owner got suspicious and called it off.

These are not chicken dens u know... High class student types, plus free lance types...

Talk a walk just opposite the road, waterina stretch... you will know what I mean. Around 8 pm.

Developer may not like what I say... but I will share... this project should be in the flight paths of F5/F16 C130 etc... returning to base.... Some US planes also fly pass and land at the airport nearby.

The low level flying and the noise generated is..... especially during the national day rehearsals. If you can accept this, go ahead.

Singapore's smallest studio spotted: 258 sqft

http://www.h88.com.sg/images/content/2009-09-29/suitesatguillemard.jpg

Just when we though "mickey mouse" units got as small as they possibly could, we found a studio that stumped us at Suites@Guillemard, a boutique development in District 14 that is launching soon.

The unit in question is a Type L studio:
http://www.h88.com.sg/images/content/2009-09-29/suitesatguillemard_studio_t.jpg

At just 258 square feet (24 square meters), the studio unit still packs in a kitchen, dining area, bathroom, master bedroom and even its own living area according to its brochure. We also believe this is perhaps Singapore's smallest studio unit at the moment. For those who are wondering how big 258 square feet is, just imagine a sizeable HDB room.

We have roughly highlighted the position of the studios red (for illustration purposes only).

Q3 home prices up 16%
The Straits Times
Thursday, 1 October 2009

http://www.straitstimes.com/STI/STIMEDIA/image/20091001/housing-afp.jpg
Analysts expect sales of private homes to hit all-time highs in the city-state this year as global economic prospects improve. -- Photo: AFP

Singapore private home prices rose by a whopping 15.9% in the third quarter, reversing four straight quarters of decline.

Prices of non-landed private homes in the city fringes (i.e. RCR)rose the most - by 19.1%, according to flash estimates released by the Urban Redevelopment Authority on Thursday.

Rising in tendem were prices of Housing Board resale flats which rose 3.2% in the third quarter.

The new city-fringe projects that sold well in the third quarter and contributed to the steep rise in the price index were Vista Residences, Parc Imperial, Ascentia Sky and Trevista, said CBRE Research.

Suburban home prices went up by 15.4% while prices of city-centre homes rose 16.2%.

These estimates are based on transaction prices given in caveats lodged during the first 10 weeks of the quarter, supplemented by information on the number of new units sold.

I was wondering how to sell in future sia? No doubt based on the quantum should be able to get a reasonable rental yield.. but no way would anyone buy it for homestay.. I think places of such small size is purely for rental. Well I guess if price is right, pple will still buy regardless of sizes. Afterall we were proven wrong time and time again of 100% soldout in alexis, illumnaire and ... pple will still bite the bait

This must be the smallest apartment in Singapore - literally the size of a hotel room. Does it have a balcony and bay windows? Excluding these, perhaps it's even smaller than 258sf? 258sf is smaller than the smallest government apartments in Hong Kong?

尺价超过1280元 超小公寓首日卖出九成
吴慧敏
联合早报
4-10-2009

靠近芽笼的超级小单位公寓掀起抢购热潮,虽然最小的单位只有区区258平方英尺,而且尺价高达1450元,但却在首日推出的短短90分钟内就马上被抢购一空。

据消息说,到昨天傍晚, Suites@Guillemard已经售出大约九成的单位,只剩下还不到10个售价在50万元以上的较大单位。

房地产顾问麦俊荣说:“这显示进场的人,都是因为单位价低而进场的,但是预算却非常紧,没有办法负担面积较大的公寓单位。”

他认为,如果这些人是抱着投资的心态进场,那么就实在让人担心,因为这意味他们也没有太强的持守能力。

尺价媲美纽顿区公寓

他也指出,每平方英尺1280元至1450元的价格,已经完全打破芽笼一带的所有尺价纪录,几乎可以媲美纽顿一带的房子。
据了解,早在该项目发售之前,已经有上百名经纪和公众在示范单位外等候进场。有兴趣的买家必须附上一张签了名的空白支票,才有抽签进示范单位看房子的机会。

http://property.zaobao.com/images6/private091004.jpg
Suites@Guillemard位于基里玛路和林亚雨路交界处,共有72个单位,大部分为面积只有40多平方米的“套间公寓”或一卧房式单位。

消息透露,在星期五推出的第一天内,所有的小单位都已经卖出,剩下不到20个面积较大的两卧房式单位,以及西照的单位,昨天剩下的单位本来就已经不多,但还是几乎每个小时都有几个单位卖出。

由Oxley Land发展的Suites@Guillemard,位于基里玛路(Guillemard Road)和林亚雨路交界处,共有72个单位。它们绝大部分为面积只有40多平方米的“套间公寓”(studio apartment)或一卧房式单位。

不过,最引人瞩目的是,最小的单位只有区区258平方英尺,面积还不到三房式政府组屋的一半,或6个半乒乓桌。

这相信是本地最小的公寓单位。

消息透露,整个项目只有四个这种属于L型的小型公寓单位,它们的售价从37万5000元起,也就是相等于每平方英尺1450元。

由于之前就已经有好几个买家“瞄准”这个单位,因此星期五一开放选购,就马上被抢购一空。

至于面积达388平方英尺的一卧房式单位,售价则从50万元起,也就是每平方英尺1288元。

$1450 psf at Geylang and sold out within 90 minutes!!! :scared-4: :scared-4: :scared-4:

I think the Singapore property market is on the verge of a very huge revolution.

The HongKong-nisation of Singapore has begun!

From now on developers will likely launch lots of very small, very high psf, but very "affordable" apartments.

Which means that the psf land price in Singapore is going to experience a structural change ...

Close proximity but Waterina/ Sunnyspring is in a different locality vs Suites. Just like we can't compare Rivergate to Martin Place Residences. Both close proximity but in different locality of River Valley.

Not necessarily so. The sucessful sale of high px mickey mouse units in a small project does not imply surrounding project pxs will "fly" as well to match.
I believe the surrounding condos (especially the mentioned 2) will "fly" but not match Suites @ Guillemard.
For example, if S @ G can sell at $1,300-1,400, then surely the 2 can sell at $1,100-1,200.

Maybe true only when the nearby 2 projects are also small project (ok they are not large project either) micky mouse units. It is the quantum that buyer can afford.

these days buyers look at quantum even though the psf is ridiculous. Paying $4xx-5xxk for a tiny little hole across the road from the red light belt is as ridiculous as paying $1200psf for Ang Mo Kio. :doh:

DRAFT MASTER PLAN 2008

Spotlight falls on Paya Lebar Central as suburban star

By EMILYN YAP

http://www.businesstimes.com.sg/mnt/media/image/launched/2008-05-24/BT_IMAGES_DRAFT24B.jpg

Paya Lebar Central is set to become the next suburban commercial hub under the Urban Redevelopment Authority's (URA) Draft Master Plan. And if market observers are right, the area may emerge as the newest hot spot for backroom operations and small and medium enterprises (SME).

Unveiled by Minister for National Development Mah Bow Tan yesterday, the 2008 Draft Master Plan is an elaborate land use guide for Singapore in the next 10 to 15 years. To sustain economic growth and bring jobs closer to homes, the plan carves out Paya Lebar Central, Kallang Riverside and Jurong Lake District as the latest commercial and mixed-use hubs.

Paya Lebar Central will stand out as a commercial node with a unique cultural identity. The URA will set aside 12 hectares of land with about 5.32 million square feet of commercial floor space for development. Of this, office space will take up 3.16 million sq ft, while hotel and retail spaces will occupy another 2.15 million sq ft.

For new growth areas such as Paya Lebar, plot ratios may increase, said Mr Mah, who spoke to reporters after the launch of the Plan.

In terms of connectivity, Paya Lebar Central is a 10-minute drive from the Central Business District (CBD) and is linked to major expressways and roads. Come 2010, the area will become more accessible when the new Paya Lebar MRT interchange station for the Circle and East-West lines opens.

There are also plans to re-align a stretch of the Geylang River so that it runs through new commercial developments along Tanjong Katong Road. The riverbanks will be ideal for office, retail and hotel developments.

Real estate experts believe that Paya Lebar Central's proximity to town may draw backroom operations from banks and multinational corporations.

'Just six MRT stations from Raffles Place, Paya Lebar Central may be even more attractive ... compared with the Tampines Regional Centre or the Changi Business Park,' observed director of marketing and business development at Savills Singapore Ku Swee Yong.

Sharing this view was Colliers International's director of research and advisory Tay Huey Ying. Ms Tay also noted that 'Paya Lebar Central will be a suitable commercial hub for SMEs, especially for those which support light industries in the area'.

For these SMEs, deputy managing director of Knight Frank Danny Yeo said: 'Rental rates in the CBD may be too high, and some have set up offices in industrial buildings instead. Hence, the creation of a commercial hub at Paya Lebar Central will be helpful.'

According to Mr Yeo, office rents in the Paya Lebar region range broadly from $6 to $8 per sq ft per month currently. A Jones Lang LaSalle report in April noted that the CBD core Grade A gross effective office rent stood at $17.35 per sq ft per month in the first quarter.

Mr Mah reassured those who were worried about a potential excess of office space from the upcoming hubs. 'We can set land aside but it is the private investor who will make the final decision,' he said.

He also did not think there would be an oversupply of office space in the foreseeable future, up to 2010 or 2011. 'Based on projections ... we expect that all the supply that we have already put in place will be taken up.'

Beyond its business appeal, Paya Lebar Central will also charm with its distinctive Malay character. A new pedestrian mall will be created along Geylang Road to provide more space for stalls during the annual Hari Raya bazaar. The new Geylang Serai Market will also add to the local heritage when it is ready in 2009.

Next to the market, a new civic centre and plaza will become focal points for community facilities such as a library, and for events such as bazaars.

To make it easier for workers and shoppers to get around Paya Lebar Central, there will be more covered walkways, underground paths and overhead bridges in the area.

With upcoming commercial and cultural activities in Paya Lebar Central, market observers expect to see three- to four-star hotels coming up to cater to mid-tier tourists and business travellers. URA estimates that the area can accommodate 1,400 hotel rooms.

WOW! :scared-4: :scared-4: :scared-4:

$1450 psf at Geylang and sold out within 90 minutes!!! :scared-4: :scared-4: :scared-4:

I think the Singapore property market is on the verge of a very huge revolution.

The HongKong-nisation of Singapore has begun!

From now on developers will likely launch lots of very small, very high psf, but very "affordable" apartments.

Which means that the psf land price in Singapore is going to experience a structural change ...
Err ... the $1,450 psf new record seems no biggie now leh.

It's not even half of Seven Palms' record lah.

Seven Palms smashes price records at Sentosa Cove
SC Global sells units at $3,100-$3,400 psf at the exclusive 4-storey project
The Business Times
Wednesday, 7 October 2009

Upmarket developer SC Global Developments is said to have sold 6 units at its Seven Palms at Sentosa Cove condo at between $3,100 psf and $3,400 psf – record prices for the upscale waterfront housing district.

On a lump-sum basis, the three and four-bedroom units were sold at about $9 million to $15 million each.

All units in the four-storey development will face either Tanjong Beach next door, or the sea or the Tanjong Golf Course at the Sentosa Golf Club.

Singaporeans are understood to have picked up 2 of the 6 units sold recently, with Singapore permanent residents buying the other 4.

Market watchers reckon SC Global is probably looking at a project-average price of about $3,500 psf for Seven Palms at Sentosa Cove. The condo will comprise just 41 units.

Standard apartment sizes range from about 2,750 sqft to 6,500 sqft.

BT understands that the biggest unit in the 99-year-leasehold project, an 8,000-sq-ft penthouse, has a price tag of about $25 million to $30 million.

Prior to this, the highest median price achieved by a developer of a Sentosa Cove condo was $2,734 psf seen at Lippo Group’s Marina Collection, which was released in late 2007.

The highest price fetched for a unit in that development was $2,917 psf, for a fourth-floor unit that sold for just over $9.8 million in December 2007.

Property consultants were generally not surprised at the record price achieved for Seven Palms, given the project’s unique positioning.

‘This will be the only condo on Sentosa Cove with direct access to a beach. And SC Global has established a track record of being able to command a premium to the market for its project,’ said CB Richard Ellis executive director (residential) Joseph Tan.

‘We’re seeing big-ticket transactions coming back to the market. For example, there are more of the $4.5 million to $12 million per apartment deals again as the bottom-up property recovery spreads to the luxury residential sector,’ he added.

Seven Palms is designed by Kerry Hill Architects, which has designed many of the Aman resorts.

SC Global clinched the 113,797-sq-ft plot, which was marketed as the Beachfront Collection, at a tender conducted by Sentosa Cove Pte Ltd (SCPL) and which closed in July 2007.

Its top bid of $268.3 million worked out to nearly $1,800 psf per plot ratio. Assuming a breakeven cost of about $2,400 psf, SC Global’s pre-tax profit from the development would be more than $170 million.

The plot has a 1.31 plot ratio (ratio of maximum potential gross floor area to land area) and a four-storey height limit. The maximum number of apartments allowed by SCPL – the district’s master planner – is 88 units.
However, SC Global has opted to build less than half that number, but with bigger units.

All penthouses and ground-floor apartments come with their own swimming pool and each unit in the project has a private lift. Housing in the immediate neighbourhood is bungalows.

面积不到500平方英尺 迷你公寓销量今年创纪录
吴慧敏
联合早报
星期三, 7-9-2009

越小的单位越好卖。今年来小型单位公寓在本地楼市掀起一阵抢购热潮,截至9月份发展商已经卖出了412个面积不到500平方英尺的“迷你”单位,打破历来最高水平。


世邦魏理仕(CB Richard Ellis)的数字显示,1995年整个市场只有一个面积小于500平方英尺的单位成交。但随着楼价的攀升,人们对小型单位的接受程度也逐渐提高,到了2006年,已有171个迷你单位成功在这年内找到买家。

过去四年,迷你单位的成交量逐年升高。2007年楼市进入高峰期,迷你单位的成交量也跃增60%至275个单位。到了2008年,楼市虽然陷入低潮时,整个市场成交的新私宅单位由超过1万个单位剧跌至4264个,但迷你单位的成交量仍然逆流而上,达到299个。

今年虽然还有三个月才结束,但迷你单位的成交量已经再攀高峰,达到412个。至于面积介于500至800平方英尺的小型单位,成交量也高达908个。

房地产交易活跃 迷你单位销售火热

世邦魏理仕执行董事李晓和说:“过去几个月的交易异常活跃,其中一大部分的销售热度来自这些迷你单位。发展商虽然在2009年推出更多迷你单位,但它们往往都在推出的极短时间内被买家抢购一空。”

例如今年二月推出的Alexis,尺价虽然不低(约1100元),但仍然在当时淡市中卖个满堂红。这个项目的多数单位,面积都偏小,介于400平方尺(一卧房)至650平方尺(二卧房)之间,售价介于45万到65万元。

Alexis的销售报捷马上吸引了一些发展商跟风,纷纷改换设计图,将原本较大的单位改成较小面积。例如力宝集团的经禧路公寓The Laurels原本计划建造145个单位,但后来却改成290个较小的单位。

据了解,新加坡置地的Trizon原本也只是计划建造190个单位,但最近推出时却已经改为289个单位。

上个星期,位于芽笼的Suites @ Guillemard,也在推出的第一天就火速卖出80%的单位。这个项目最大的卖点是,最小的单位只有258平方英尺,也就是大约六张半乒乓桌大小,相信是本地至今最小的公寓单位。

虽然这些单位的尺价高达1288元至1450元,但由于单位价介于38万元至55万元,容易负担,所以很快就被买家扫光。这个价位也突破了芽笼一带所有项目的尺价,几乎可以媲美纽顿一带的水平。

李晓和指出,最近推出的一些新项目,甚至将顶层豪宅(penthouse)的面积设计得只有800至1200平方英尺,跟一般家庭式单位差不多,而不是传统的超大面积。

对于这样的一个潮流是否可以持久,李晓和语带保留:“一旦这些项目完工,原本打算买来自住的人得考虑他们是否能够在这种较小型的单位住得习惯?”

“至于那些买来投资的人,也必须想想,谁会向他们租用这些房子?虽然有些单身的外籍专业人士或者单身的本地雅皮士可能觉得这种房子符合他们的生活方式,不过这类族群的人数是否足够填满这类单位,至今还是个未知数。”

自1995年来,发展商已经卖出了1306个面积小于500平方英尺的迷你单位。至于面积介于500至800平方英尺的小型单位,过去十四年来则总共卖出了6193个。

Think of it like renting a room, without owner, which is livable, then you will see the beauty of the place.

I doubt this can hit 2k though. For the 258sf unit, most likely only 1500-1600pm. Some run-down eons old private walkup studio in TK without any facility already asking 1000-1200. And most studios anywhere (old apartments) is 1000-1400pm anyway. Master bedrooms in City Square are going for 1200 - in view of the full condo facilities, but no privacy as it's just a room.

But location not that fantastic. Esta Ruby seems a better location. Whether for individual or a couple, I believe that 500 sq ft is acceptable. 258 sq ft is a bit unbearable unless its for temporary stay of a few months. But maybe one day, all our house would be like Japan, Hongkong. 258 sq ft is a norm then no one would say 258 sq ft is too small. It become acceptable.

Guillemard camp set for redevelopment

SINGAPORE: Guillemard camp is set for redevelopment, after sitting vacant for almost ten years.

The camp has remained empty ever since the military moved out in 2003.

Currently, ownership of the land is split between the Ministry of Defence and the Singapore Land Authority.

There have been plans by URA - under its Master Plan 2008 - to redevelop the 10-hectare site for housing, but a fixed date hasn't been set.

To construct the MRT Circle Line, part of the Old Airport Road has already been closed, and cars have been passing through Guillemard Camp as a detour.

Analysts said it's time to convert the land - which is in a prime location - especially in light of Singapore's land shortage.

Director of Koh International, Chris Koh said: "I must say it's a good site, centrally located, not far from the city via Nicoll Highway, and also near to the Geylang, Kallang area.

"We should use it especially now, when housing is an issue where we feel there is insufficient supply to meet the demand. Some people might ask, 'should SAF camps be located in such prime locations?'. That will put pressure on SAF to move to the outskirts."
