What Could Work Against You
- Only 0 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 38 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
Buyers most likely to be happy here: single professionals, mrt-walkable commuters, tertiary student housing and long-term hold (10+ yr). Smaller-format units and CCR (Core Central Region) location suit solo buyers with a CBD-oriented career.
foreign / absd-aware buyers and heavy renovation / value seekers should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.
It is a weaker fit for short-term flippers (<5 yr) and resort facilities — other options likely serve them better. TOP 2006 keeps the SSD window in mind for buyers exploring the 3-5 year resale-arbitrage strategy.
Verdict
EMILY RESIDENCE is a freehold development in District 9 (CCR), with 38 units, offering a gross yield of 3.5%.
At ~$1,675 psf, it reflects its premium CCR positioning.
