Lincoln Suites launched at average $1,680 psf

THE four property developers who jointly bought freehold Lincoln Lodge more than two years ago in a collective sale intend to launch the project tomorrow, they said yesterday.

The developers – Koh Brothers, Heeton Holdings, KSH Holdings and Lian Beng Group – paid $243 million for the District 11 property along Khiang Guan Avenue at the height of the property boom in June 2007. But they put off launching the project as the property market went south soon after.

Now, with the market seemingly staging a recovery, the 175-unit Lincoln Suites will be rolled out, beginning with invited guests tomorrow. The first phase of the launch will see 56 units offered at an average price of $1,680 per square foot (psf).

The consortium paid significantly more than the reserve price of $188 million for the project in 2007 as it was ‘very interested’ in the site. There were several bids for the site.

It was then estimated that the $243 million forked out worked out to $1,449 psf per plot ratio (ppr) including an estimated development charge (DC) of $413,000. Continue reading
