    Properties tend to have highest probability of losses when the purchase price is too high which is observed from the current new launches like Blossoms By The Park, Tembusu Grand and Botony@Dairy Farm all of which are 99 years leasehold condo transacting at their respective estates record PSF. When prices have peaked and FOMO dried up, that's when losses accumulate.

      I think you've hit the nail on the head. If buyers today are snapping up new launches at $2600psf, what are they expecting as their exit strategy? Do they think the prices can hit $3500psf in 10yrs (roughly 3% CAGR) ? To me, highly doubtful if interest rates remain moderate/high and there's an economic downturn in between.

      Bet to differ..depends on what u buying..which level ,etc..price difference can be 150k comparing level 8 and level 35..as investors u buy lower floor..

      Another point to consider is the condo maintenance cost, luxury developments with lush grounds are not cheap to maintain/upkeep.

    Like every investment, shares ( for example if u invested in Japan for the past 20 yrs) & properties there are bound to be some who lost but from a long term perspective most will gain.

    • @joshconsultancy
      @joshconsultancy  Рік тому

      Fully agree. Most long term stock investors also do well. But in stocks, because cycle for price movement is so much faster, there’s way more opportunities to speculate and in the end most lose there

    Good insight, thanks. To see the condos' buyers profile by residential status and by purchaser address -- is it a free public website? Possible to share the link?

  • @kevinlim7974
    @kevinlim7974 Рік тому

    I think 1 of the 'cons' of Sky Habitat is the floor plans. Unfortunately, Moshie Safdie's vision doesn't seem to be appreciated by prospective buyers 😅 There's a higher % of balcony space, so the internal space is much less than specified.

      Hi Kiwi, seen you on FB. I've only bought a HDB and a condo so far and they are both near parents.
      Second one being near pri school and when moved there the first was rented out until very recently sold.
      The focus has been happy as a home first and comfortable on budget next.

    @cchan4739 Рік тому +2

    It's all about entry price. No matter how "good" your condo is.. if you entered at too high a psf you're gone case.
    And I'm not sure that it's because Singaporeans don't find CCR attractive, but it's more of an affordability issue. The older FH CCR condos have bigger units that the avg Singaporeans cannot afford. Look at Newton, it's centrally located, close to malls, close to good schools aplenty. How would Newton's FH condo psf lose out to somewhere like AMK or Lentor where it's 99LH? It just doesn't make sense.

      Maybe if this reason of "families are buying" has some truth, it could explain?

    • @chinchowpowpook
      @chinchowpowpook Рік тому

      Agreed, is all about local’s affordability..most able to buy 1.6-2mil, only few can do above 2 mil mark..so be very careful to enter high Quantum or big floor space condo. For investor they only care more bedrooms n toilets and Match their budget..a 3 bedder can be small 890 sqft at 1.7mil still can rent out 5.5k ,older unit 1300 sqft mostly 2.4mil..rental price still same,hence super low rental yield ..harder to sell too, only appeal to family not investor
