MCC Land put in the highest bid price, which is higher than the previous EC site in Pasir Ris.

Breakeven is above $600psf.

Total 8 bidders.

So they are going to sell at least $700psf. Nearby pte condo will benefit.

Punggol. Sengkang & Pasir Ris are pretty "hot" now, to achieve higher psf land price, developers are very optimistic in Yishun & Northern area.

Now, the next one to watch out is the "Yishun Residences". See how the Bedok one sells.

Is the site near MRT? 600psf with 20% mark up means $720psf. So who should receive the cooling measure more?

Limited supply plus high demand from upgraders means North is much better than North East.

Quite near but not so near to the track instead, but the LTA will be building a new station there (abt 150m away) when critical mass is achieved.

DBSS now already $650 psf on avg, so EC price will be above $700 psf.

The NSE is causing a overhang for seletaris.

yup that's why their prices have been depressed because of that....just thinking this may give them a little bit of cheer?

better if they say the NSE stretch outside Seletaris is going to be constructed underground. their price could rebound strongly.

Yes. Not really for seletaris or maybe, but good for 8CY (> $800 psf avg currently), emerald & Sapphire. The base price for that area will be set.

The price pusher will be the site next to SSC and will be launching in a few months time. Dun forget breakeven @ $800psf.

More to come for the next few months.

LHL also recently mentioned on the facelift on older estate like Yishun. Dun know what can he come up with or when or never.

Sembawang Shopping Centre. A rich tycoon who stays at Sentosa cove bidded that land. The piece of land is in between SSC & Canberra Res.

Alot of pent up demand in yishun.

First from upgraders in the area due to lack of new projects.

Second, other area upgraders are pushed to yishun, last frontier for affordable housing.

Third, it's the last couple of matured estates that will eventually be rejuvenated.

Catch up game with the rest of SG. :p

the phrase last frontier of affordable is an exaggeration lah. There's plenty of new build in ppunggol and in the future Tengah.

Many owners of Yishun Emerald & YS have increased their asking price to more than $800 psf after the released of tender bid price for this EC site.

Sure will go up to $1000 psf.

Prive is a done deal several months ago.

If this new EC launch at Yishun is about the same as Prive..... then it is cheaper, given that prices still rose from several months ago till now.

Prive is fairly near the MRT station whilst this one isn't right?

Yishun is a matured estate, punggol isn't right?

Anyway, back to the original discussion, which is yishun is still more affordable than punggol and current projects in yishun are still undervalued.

Just wait and see yishun residences next to yishun mrt. This project will make the rest of yishun look so much more undervalued.

Not much space left in yishun, as the plots near emerald, sapphire are reserved for big commercial plans, that i believe will come once NSE is ready.

The 99-year lease property received a top bid of S$213 million from MCC Land, according to a release by the Housing and Development Board (HDB).

The second highest bid of S$197.5 million came from Sunmaster Holdings, while the S$190 million joint bid from Russville Pte Ltd and Low Keng Huat (Singapore) was third highest.

The site is slated for executive condominium (EC) development and analysts say the strong showing from developers reveals their continued interest in mass-market housing.

Recent policy changes, which saw the income ceiling raised from S$10,000 to S$12,000, have also allowed more buyers to qualify for ECs.

The top bid is "the highest unit land price achieved for an EC site in second half of 2011, particularly after market sentiments have been rocked by the debt crisis in the Western countries," said Ms Chia Siew Chuin, director of research & advisory at Colliers International.

She added that it is also about four per cent above the S$281 per sq ft per plot ratio received for The Canopy EC site located at Yishun Avenue 11 in March 2010.

CBRE research executive director Li Hiaw Ho said the top bid translates to a break-even cost of around S$600 psf.

He said units in the new executive condominium will likely be priced in the S$600-S$700 psf range.

The land parcel was launched for tender on August 25. HDB said it will evaluate the bids and will announce the decision on the tender award at a later date.

750psf is pretty on the high side as this project consist only the bigger units.

2nd time buyers have deeper pockets.

Still very early to gauge on the price they gg to launch but now, MCC land happily doing the sum

Government damn smart, carry balls of MCC related to China minister.

It now makes sense why they plan bigger units and launch at higher price because they knew this 30% rule is coming.

Demand is high for 2nd timers who got the cash to pay for bigger units.

I expect big units to still command similar psf in this project.
