    This location is definitely better than Hillion. Are they likely to tear down hougang plaza and build a condo above a new shopping centre?

    Naung Residence is still 41/60 unsold. This development will bring in more competition and suffocate its sales completely.

    For immediate release 3 May 2012
    NEWS RELEASE
    CapitaMall Trust sells Hougang Plaza for S$119.1 million
    Expected to realise net gain of approximately S$83.8 million
    Singapore, 3 May 2012 – CapitaMall Trust Management Limited (CMTML), the manager of CapitaMall Trust (CMT), announced today that CMT, through its trustee, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, has entered into an agreement to sell its property, Hougang Plaza, to Oxley Bloom Pte. Ltd. for a total consideration of approximately S$119.1 million.
    Located in Hougang Central, Hougang Plaza is sited on land with a lease expiring on or about 28 February 2090. It is a three-storey shopping mall with a net lettable area of 75,353 square feet. The mall has a committed occupancy of 100.0% as at 31 March 2012, and contributed about 0.5% to the net property income of CMT Group for the first quarter ended 31 March 2012. Its major tenants include Kopitiam, Furniture & Furnishings, K Box and Cold Storage.
    CMT acquired 96.7% of Hougang Plaza’s strata area in 2005 and the remaining 3.3% in 2006 for a total of S$49.1 million. Based on the latest independent valuation as at 31 December 2011, the property is valued at S$34.0 million. CMT will realise a net gain of approximately S$83.8 million from the sale of Hougang Plaza after taking into account the divestment fee and other divestment related expenses.
    Mr Simon Ho, CEO of CMTML, said, “After reviewing all options for Hougang Plaza, we believe that a sale of the asset would unlock higher value for our unitholders. If we had opted to retain the asset, we would have to commit significant capital expenditure over the next few years to maintain the mall. The net sale proceeds of approximately S$117.8 million will provide CMT with greater financial flexibility for refinancing or to take advantage of any good acquisition opportunities.”
    The sale of Hougang Plaza is expected to be completed on or about 13 June 2012. Upon completion of this transaction, CMT will have a portfolio of 15 operational shopping malls in Singapore valued at approximately S$7.8 billion.

    CMT’s Hougang Plaza Goes To Oxley For $119m


    OXLEY Holdings, fresh from its purchase of McDonald’s Place, has snapped up Hougang Plaza for $119.1 million from CapitaMall Trust (CMT).

    In a statement issued to the Singapore Exchange yesterday, CMT said that it has sold the three-storey shopping mall located in Hougang Central to Oxley Bloom, a fully-owned subsidiary of Oxley Holdings. Oxley Bloom will pay for the acquisition in cash, which it said will come through a combination of internal resources and external borrowings.

    Oxley Holdings said it intends to enter into a formal agreement with Lian Beng Land which will see the latter become a joint venture partner in redeveloping Hougang Plaza. Lian Beng will do so by taking up a 50 per cent stake in Oxley Bloom.

    The acquisition price of Hougang Plaza is more than three times the market valuation of the property, which was put at $34 million as at Dec 31, 2011, by Knight Frank. The book value of the property is also $34 million.

    When contacted, Oxley Holdings said that it plans to turn the shopping mall – which currently has a net lettable area of 75,353 square feet, and a land area of approximately 57,047 square feet – into a mixed residential cum commercial development. This is subject to approval from the Urban Redevelopment Authority.

    Hougang Plaza has a leasehold tenure of 99 years, with effect from March 1, 1991.

    In April, Oxley Holdings bought the iconic McDonald’s Place at King Albert Park for $150 million. The freehold, 5,534.8 square metre site that the two-storey commercial building sits on is zoned for commercial and residential use.

    Ashish Manchharam, head of investments in South East Asia at Jones Lang LaSalle, which acted as property consultant to CMT for the Hougang Plaza deal, said: “Hougang Plaza received strong interest from the market. A new development on the site is expected to be well received given the location, which is walking distance to the Hougang MRT station and within proximity to amenities.”

    CMT expects to realise a net gain of about $83.3 million from the sale of Hougang Plaza, after taking into account the divestment fee and divestment-related expenses.

    “The net sale proceeds of approximately $117.8 million will provide CMT with greater financial flexibility to pursue possible acquisition opportunities and/or to repay debt,” it said in a statement.

    CMT added that the sale is not expected to have any material effect on the net asset value and distribution per unit for FY2011.

    Oxley Holdings said its purchase is not expected to have a material impact on the earnings per share or net tangible assets per share of the company for the current financial year ending June 2012.

    Yesterday, units of CMT closed 0.6 per cent higher at $1.815. Oxley’s shares climbed 1.3 per cent to 38 cents.

    Small plot of land. Even at GFR 3.0 the GFAand bonus GFA is approximately 190,000 sqft. Assuming lettable space remained unchanged at 75,000 then number of residential units will be approx 125 units.

    In mixed development there is a chance that commercial units are subsidizing the residential units hence I think prices will be reasonable for the residential units. I think it's also about there.
