What Could Work Against You

  • Only 1 transactions were recorded in the past 12 months, so the price figures here rest on a thin sample — a single outlier deal can move the averages.
  • At 29 units, this is a boutique development — fewer comparable sales to anchor valuations, and maintenance costs spread across a smaller fee base.

Who This Actually Suits

This is a strong match for families with young children, mrt-walkable commuters, long-term hold (10+ yr) and freehold / generational hold. Family-suitable layout and OCR (Outside Central Region) location with established school catchments nearby.

heavy renovation / value seekers should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.

It is a weaker fit for yield-focused investors, short-term flippers (<5 yr) and en-bloc speculators — other options likely serve them better. OCR (Outside Central Region) location with rental demand profile worth running through our Rental Yield Calculator.


Verdict

BAYOU RESIDENCE is a freehold development in District 19 (OCR), with 29 units, offering a gross yield of 2.6%.

At ~$1,418 psf, it represents a competitive entry point in the OCR segment.
