the units at Robin Residences are not big and actually very popular too so there is no cash back. project to be completed soon with stevens mrt pretty close by, the project should at the very least be rentable. i think the quantum is still "affordable" to many so unlikely there is cash back. however, for the CNY month of Feb, agents are touting up to $38k off price upfront. lol.
Crazy transactions this CNY

BISHOPSGATE RESIDENCES BISHOPSGATE Condominium 10 CCR Freehold Resale 1 10,464,697 - 3,143 Strata 01 to 05 3,329 Feb-16
Leedon Resi at >2000psf, Goodwood Grand at 24xxpsf and the Bishopgate transaction mentioned. even if there's a 1m cash back, its still a cool 3011psf. i thought there was a lot of talk about stock markets crashing affecting buying sentiment in CCR?
St Martin Residence
Sold 28 JAN 2016 8 ST. MARTIN'S DRIVE #XX-XX 2,034sq ft 1,779psf
Bought 21 NOV 2007 2,335psf
again, the best bargains are found in the urgent sellers who overpaid.
just above this caveat, i saw another 2 big purchases:
THE LADYHILL LADY HILL ROAD Condominium 10 CCR Freehold Resale 1 $7,000,000 - 3,843 Strata 01 to 05 1,822 Jan-16
seller bought low in 2005 and made 2.2m

a 99 year leasehold garden house for 5.3m?! (this is not even a semi-d), its just a triplex on the ground floor of one of the blocks. climbing the steep staircase alone is a chore.
Volari

again, a seller who bought at the peak in 2007 and is eager to sell at a loss and at a bargain to the buyer.
Goodwood grand was launched in dec 2013 and psf ranged from 2276 to 2449psf for the standard units.
2014 was 2366 to 2544psf
only 1 transaction in 2015 at a record 2563psf
4 caveats lodged in feb 2016 at 2428 to 2490psf

Marina Bay Suites
Sold 1 JAN 2016 3 CENTRAL BOULEVARD #XX-XX 2,680sq ft 1,977psf
Bought 27 MAY 2010 2,654psf
was mentioned in the edge about half a year ago about the malaysian who wanted to sell. it said he would have made a loss but offset by forex gain.
Especially those big big units in prime districts. Those are the ones that suffer jia lat jia lat. But at that kind of quantum, it is beyond the reach of 99% of the population anyway. So no matter how cheap it is, it is still in the region of millions. Not many people can take out 500k cash that easily.
What does this mean? It means property prices crash in prime CCR districts only benefit the rich who can afford?
Time for the government/MND to fine-tune their property cooling measures to also crash OCR property prices so that the ordinary people will benefit and be able to buy CHEAP CHEAP?
Otherwise the so-called property prices already cooled (just because CCR prices crashed and dragged overall PPI lower is plain useless to ordinary people and only benefits the rich).
ok, backed by examples:
TWENTYONE ANGULLIA PARK
4 FEB 2016 21 ANGULLIA PARK #XX-XX RESALE 3,348sq ft STRATA 3,600psf $12,052,800 PRIVATE
THE RITZ-CARLTON RESIDENCES SINGAPORE CAIRNHILL

5 FEB 2016 65 CAIRNHILL ROAD #XX-XX RESALE 3,057sq ft STRATA 3,795psf $11,600,000 PRIVATE
benefit the rich who can afford lor.
Why would the Government bother about CCR? Crash crash lor. Who cares.
Government should care only about HDB. Maybe suburban condo a bit but the focus should be on HDB. 80% of the people stay in HDB and the remaining mostly OCR follow by RCR. So I think they are doing a good job. The top 1%, who cares.
So, you mean the government is doing a good job by keeping OCR private property prices at historical high prices despite their so-called property cooling measures that is supposed to cool it?
And you are contradicting yourself by saying that the government's "focus should be on HDB. 80% of the people stay in HDB"?
You mean the government's focus is to keep OCR private property prices at historical high?
Oh, there you goes the dream of the >80% HDB owners who dream of upgrading to OCR private properties (after all the hoo-ha about property cooling measures which give them false hope).............

I don't really care about OCR. HDB is first priority. And I thought prices peaked 2013/14? What you talking? Now still historical high meh? Get your facts right first. LOL. Machiam talking like TOC, TRS.
Economically speaking, shouldn't property prices or asset prices hit historical high? Just a matter of time right? I mean, if you know economy, inflation etc. If not, then no point continuing.
Economically speaking property prices should hit historical high? Only you said so right?
At least that is NOT the belief of MND / MAS / Singapore government otherwise there won't be so many property cooling measures! ho ho ho!
The government is telling us that you talk cock lah!
And what is wrong with TOC and TRS? Thought they exposed many "famous" issues?? You can't stand these is it?
HDB price peaked in 2013/2014? Really??
Ho ho ho, you talk cock again (as exposed by others here like August)!
