Facts will be revealed over the next few days by Straits Times.

    This is waiting for 4D number... Now still never released the figure.. I feel they make a marketing mistake stating how many will be launch... Should learn frm Wheelock... 58 unit sold still can say 50% as only released "120" units.. Now they mentioned 300 unit to be launch, so die die must sell above 150 to have a reasonable ok %...

    demand is low. Even though 500+ cheques collected similar to that of Riverbank but...

    The ABSD actually prevented many potential 2nd home buyers to jump in. Also, $10xxpsf for Sengkang area is way to expensive.

    Over the weekend, the RiverTrees Residences condominium in Sengkang (pictured) sold 220 of the 300 units launched for sale in the initial phase, or around 73 percent.

    The project fronting Punggol Reservoir is being developed by a Frasers Centrepoint-led consortium and comprises 487 residential units.

    According to the developer, the two-bedroom units and Cove Houses, a cluster of eight waterfront landed homes, were particularly popular.

    Buyers included both first-timers looking to upgrade from a HDB flat and purchasing for their own stay, as well as investors.

    An earlier report revealed that prices for the initial phase would range between $950 to $1,150 psf.

    Cheang Kok Kheong, CEO of Frasers Centrepoint, said: “The strong sales bear testament to the beauty of RiverTrees Residences' site and the attractiveness of the project's excellent design. This also validates our belief that there is still depth in the market, and that there is robust demand for high quality homes at the right prices."

    RiverTrees Residences is expected to TOP in 2018.

    Very good result achieved under this big environment. Quite surprised though that the 1 bedder is not mentioned for the best selling unit types. Any insider to share why?

    73% take-up rate?

    The way to assess the market sentiment at Rivertrees is to take the % of checks collected which resulted in a sale. It was reported that 585 checks were collected prior to the launch so the take-up rate is 220/585 or about 38%.

    This means that 62% of the prospective vvip buyers yanked the purchase, or being yanked from making a purchase because of TDSR qualifying etc.

    Considering that this is BUC where the initial finiancial commitment is from 20% and the sale price $psf is relatively low, a take-up rate of 38% is rather poor.

    I think those 62% were also looking for the 1 bedder and 2 bedder but were sold out. For those interested in bigger units there sin' a need to queue n ballot. You will get ur choice unit.

    Default Over price & not much upward potential

    1) more than 4 condo projects beside and TOP about the same time ( total more than 2000 units ).

    2) Project near LRT not MRT

    3) Cove/Townhouse units selling the same high per sqft price as smaller 1 bedroom condo units.

    4) Cove/Townhouse units charge you extra 130sqft of floor areas for (void area and 1 car park lot)

    5) Future highway running across the river in front of project

    I would think one of the biggest threats to the condo buyers are the aggressive nearby HDB flats that are closer to LRTs and Malls. Apart from Punggol, SengKang has been agressively building alot of BTO flats in recent years. It is very much easy to rent or buy a resale unit now since over supplying of units is happening.

    LRT could be one of the attractions since only 3 estates has this kind of transport in Singapore. I dont think having a highway in front is a threat. There are many condos facing highway or even landed houses build along roadside.

    I notice RT one of main selling point is the Fengshui. One of the agent claimed that the Fengshui master has bought the Cove unit after realising the fengshui is damn good over this plot of land with "Water" and "Bank" around it..interesting. .

    Condo and HDB have their respective pools of tenants. We seldom see a waiter earning 1.5k - 2k per month to rent a 1k plus room, vice versa it's highly unlikely for an expat having a housing grant at 2-3k per month to rent a HDB room. Though proxy to facilities and public transportation is a concern, it's much more likely the expat chooses to move away from condos nearby Fernvale to rent at La Fiesta, rather than settle down at a HDB which is closer to malls and lrt at Fernvale.

    This is how a grassroot residential area in a country with given land scarcity issue gradually morphs into. Sometimes we have to live with the constraints.

    2) Project near LRT not MRT
    We have both Ferrari and Cherry show rooms in Singapore. One buys what one can afford.

    3) Cove/Townhouse units selling the same high per sqft price as smaller 1 bedroom condo units.
    Jonnie walker offers black label all the way up to blue label. A standard bottle of Black label has same volume as that of a blue label.

    4) Cove/Townhouse units charge you extra 130sqft of floor areas for (void area and 1 car park lot)
    Name a townhouse that does not have void area. Kudos to the designer! As for carpark, a paper cup and an exquisitely designed wine glass can both be used to drink Lafite. which one would the person who can afford Lafite rather?

    5) Future highway running across the river in front of project[/QUOTE]
    One should always do his homework and is free to walk away before vested.

    The Fengshui Master did not realize that there will be one semi expressway viaduct in future which will disrupt the Fengshui formation.
