Private home sales still going strong

Brisk sales by developers for private homes continued last week. In the CBD, United Industrial Corporation (UIC) is said to have moved close to 50 units at its V on Shenton project, taking total sales in the project to over 140 units.

The 54-storey tower was launched on 20 July with 190 out of its 510 units released. Apartments at the 99-year leasehold project are being sold at an average price of S$2,200 psf.

Singaporeans are believed to have dominated sales with other buyers coming from China, Indonesia and India, according to The Business Times.

At the same time, Parc Centros by Wee Hur Holdings reportedly attracted another 100 buyers last week taking total sales to 480 units thus far.

Going at an average price of S$950 psf, the 99-year leasehold project has attracted mainly Singaporean buyers.

According to analysts, brisk sales at Parc Centros could be attributed to the popularity of Punggol and proximity to the MRT station and future Waterway Point mall.

In addition, its average pricing is seen as more attractive than Watertown condo which was unveiled in January at a median price of S$1,169 psf.

Meanwhile, Koh Brothers’ Parc Olympia at Flora Drive reportedly sold some 20-plus units last week boosting sales to over 200 homes. The 99-year leasehold condo was launched on 12 July and released 358 of the total 486 units.

Moreover, a freehold project called The Line@Tanjong Rhu is said to have sold around 15 units last week. Developed by Lakeview Investments, homes at the 107-unit development are being sold at an average price of S$2,100 psf.

V On Shenton to launch

United Industrial Corporation (UIC) is set to launch the residential component of its V On Shenton development by the end of the month.

Located along Shenton Way, the 99-year leasehold mixed development will offer 510 housing units catering to city-loving urbanites. Units include studios, one-bedders, one plus study, two-bedroom units, two plus study, three-bedders and penthouses.

Only 100 to 200 units will be released at the launch at an indicative price of between S$2,200 and S$2,300 psf. According to the developer, the most affordable apartment would be priced below S$1 million and is slightly smaller than 500 sq ft.

The 54-storey residential tower will feature a lap pool, Laundromat, outdoor island kitchens and gymnasium. Most of the higher-floor units will offer unobstructed views of the sea and city.

V On Shenton also offers proximity to Tanjong Pagar and Raffles Place MRT stations, Marina Bay Financial Centre, Singapore Flyer, Esplanade Theatres on the Bay and Gardens by the Bay.

Set for completion by 2017, V On Shenton will also have 588 car park lots.

The 23-storey office tower will not be released for sale and will be kept for the group’s own investment purposes.
