What Could Work Against You

  • Only 3 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.

Who This Actually Suits

This is a strong match for mrt-walkable commuters, p1 school balloting families, long-term hold (10+ yr) and freehold / generational hold. MRT proximity is the standout commute feature for daily transit users.

pet owners and foreign / absd-aware buyers should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.

It is a weaker fit for yield-focused investors and resort facilities — other options likely serve them better. OCR (Outside Central Region) location with rental demand profile worth running through our Rental Yield Calculator.
