What Could Work Against You

  • With just 0 sales in the trailing year, pricing signals are indicative rather than definitive; expect wider bid-ask spreads when you negotiate.
  • The 12-unit size cuts both ways: exclusivity, but thinner resale liquidity and higher per-unit maintenance contributions than larger estates.

Buyers most likely to be happy here: car-owning households, long-term hold (10+ yr), freehold / generational hold and first-time hdb upgraders. At ~854m from the nearest MRT, this property suits households with a car who value arterial road access over transit proximity.
