What Could Work Against You

  • Only 4 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 67 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: freehold / generational hold. Freehold makes this a candidate for multi-generation transfer with no lease-decay drag.

long-term hold (10+ yr) should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.

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