Simply amazing. we talked about TOP euphoria in earlier threads.Originally Posted by Rysk
So now we have Viva, a Novena condo hitting near 2300pfs for non-MM units, way ahead of Newton condos such as Trilight, Residences@Evelyn etc.
Can get non MM condos at heart of Orchard for this pfs.
Other than good finishing interior, can't find special reasons for this.
Some stacks, facing quite bad.
Check how much the recently sold white site right beside Novena MRT went for. That is your answer.
Not many condo. in Novena is having such a big site area, located adjacent to a small park, close to MRT via underground tunnel and is also freehold. For Singapore to become a regional Medical Hub, the targetted number of healthcare professional is to be increased from the current figure of 36,000 to 69,000 based on a report. This is excluding the non-professional supporting workforce. Meaning that there are still alot of investment to be done in healthcare sector. Some of this investment will naturally flow into Novena area. In time to come, Novena will be further transformed. The quicker the indonesian becomes richer, as their economy is growing at 6%+ per annum, the faster Novena will be transformed into a regional medical hub.Originally Posted by mcmlxxvi
so the balestier area would get a boost too?
Since now Viva almost 2.2-2.3k psf for a 1528sf unitOriginally Posted by propertychap
Just 1.3km away The Arte (Thomson/Balestier side) 1528sf unit was transacting at 1.2-1.3k psf..
Meaning for every 100m is about $100psf??
does it make vista residence penthouse at 1900psf look cheap?

HDB owners have lots of hidden wealth...
The other possible conclusion is that Viva is over priced and the rest are relatively cheap.
Good location, excellent internal finishing, but external does not have the luxurious look. Small entrance and the best stacks face the multistorey UE Sq car park and the lower floors will see the constant movements of cars at night and the ventilator shunts. The not so good stacks face each other ( 8-10m?) and from balcony can say hello to neighbours and curtains have to be up all the time. Didn't quite like this but some people may not mind.
Would be interesting to see if current high pfs can be sustained a year after TOP.
No vested interest but IMO, overpriced compared to other D9/10 projects
It will be interesting to know what make a district acquired its "premium status" over time? What are the signs that an investor can detect for such a transformation ? Lets do a comparison between Balestier vs Novena areas based on the following factors:Novena Area:1) Residential development standard: Luxurious condo. began to be built in this area a dacade ago; such as Lincoln Modern by SCDA architect. 2) Hotel standard:It consists of a few 3-4 star hotel development. Oasis hotel by FEO is the lattest addition. It will be interesting to know what kind of Hotel will be developed by Fragrance Group ( site adjacent to the revenue house) and Hoi Hup ( white site adjacent to Novena Square). The trend seems to be moving upmarket.3)Shopping Mall standard:A group of destination malls not only serving the daily needs of the neighbourhood residences, but have attracted customers from other part of s'pore.4)Foreigner enclave:Korean and Indonesian.Balestier Area:1) Residential development standard:Little known luxurious condo. development in this area.2) Hotel standard:Mostly budget hotels. No luxurious hotel development in this area. High possibility of attracting undesirable activities if it is without the monitoring from the government.3)Shopping Mall standard:None. Only good for hawker food and heritage.4)Foreigner enclave:Not clear.In this simple comparison, Balestier area looks like still has a long way to go to acquire its " premium status " despite its close proximity to the city and Novena. Does the premuim status of Novena area justified its huge price margin in relation to its neighbouring balestier area? What price margin is considered right? Is Viva condo. overpriced in comparing with its surrounding development? I will attempt to give my 2 cts comment sometime later.Originally Posted by propertychap
I think it is not Viva that is over-priced, rather, it is the surrounding resale condos that are under-priced especially when compared to those OCR condos already hitting >S$1500 psf

In fact those OCR 99-LH big units at 1500-1700psf already outstrip City fringe Balestier FH big unit 1200-1400psf
Pay 500psf more over SH 1700psf.. and you are in Prime district(not OCR).. D11(not D20).. Novena(not Bishan).. Freehold(not 99-LH).. TOP(uncompleted)
SH Bishan is RCR la
Can moderator transfer SH from Suburbia folder to City fringe folder??Originally Posted by mcmlxxvi
Or best transfer the whole Dist.20 folder to City fringe folder..
I have done some price comparison ( 2bd room unit) for Viva condo. within Novena area based on:1) Condo. with similar large site area + common facilities : a) Park Infinia( FH) = 1987-2049psf (850m2).b) Soleil (LH) = 1800-1884psf(958m2).c) Viva (FH) = 2002-2150psf (958/1044m2)From the above, The price of Viva is about 5%(100psf) higher than its older cousin, the Mass market park infinia completed in 2008, and is about 10% higher than the Lease hold, highend Soleil completed in 2011. 2) Condo. with similar highend finishes:a) 26 Newton (FH) = 2400-2463psf (614-775m2)b) Viva (FH) = 2002-2150psf (958/1044m2)From the above, The price of Viva is about 10-15% lower than 26-Newton, which occupied a small site, is located further away from MRT and amenity, surrounded by towers on all sides and uncompleted. The only winning feature of 26 Newton is its smaller price quantum.Generally speaking, and despite limited comparison , Viva price doesnot seem to be excessively high in comparison with its neighbours. This comparison may reveal some of the reasons behind its recent price surge; It is a rare product by virtue of its large land size + within MRT walking distance + in a mature residential estate that is close to the city. Not many site have these combination of positive elements. Lastly, I am puzzled by one abnormality of Viva; The price of its larger units ( usually 3-bedroom unit) is leading the price surge. This is the opposite from most condo. in Singapore in current market situation (since the arrival of MM unit) . Upon close examination, there may be an answer to this abnormality, too.

This is recorded as subsale. Most likely the option to purchase was signed before the release of CM7. Anyone can verify?
Without CM7, property price would really surge up quickly as shown in the sudden big jump of selling price of about 10 -15% for Viva unit before and after the announcement of QE3.
