Lease Analysis

With 69 years remaining on its 99-year lease, FAIRMOUNT CONDOMINIUM still qualifies for full bank financing and CPF usage.

What Could Work Against You

  • About 69 years remain on the lease. Decay is not yet a financing problem, but buyers holding beyond 10-15 years should model the value drag as the 60-year threshold approaches.
  • 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 64 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

The profile fits mrt-walkable commuters, international school families, long-term hold (10+ yr) and first-time hdb upgraders best. Located ~476m from Sungei Bedok MRT, this property is a comfortable daily walk for transit commuters.

For short-term flippers (<5 yr), it can work — but weigh the trade-offs before committing.

One caution flagged here: avoid if mrt-dependent — MRT access is meaningfully constrained — transit-dependent buyers should consider better-connected alternatives.


Verdict

FAIRMOUNT CONDOMINIUM is a 99 yrs lease commencing from 1996 development in District 16 (OCR), with 64 units, offering a gross yield of 3.1%.

At ~$1,139 psf, it represents a competitive entry point in the OCR segment.
