OVER 100 units were sold at Marina One Residences on Friday, taking total sales to more than 300 units.
As of end-Friday, the developer M+S - a joint venture between Khazanah Nasional and Temasek Holdings - had released 372 units in the 1,042-unit condo.
On Thursday, M+S indicated that it had sold slightly more than 200 units to multiple-unit buyers since Oct 3. On that day, balloting began for buyers of three or more units.
Balloting for those purchasing two units began on Wednesday. On Friday, balloting was started for single-unit buyers who had submitted cheques during the preview period.
Prices in the 99-year leasehold condo range from S$1,960 psf to S$3,100 psf after an early-bird discount of 10 per cent for those who registered during the preview (Sept 13 to Oct 5).
The public launch, for those who did not register during the preview, will begin on Saturday.
BT understands that prices of one-bedders start from slightly below S$1.4 million while two-bedders are going for a shade under S$2 million. Two-bedders in the project range from 969 sq ft to 1,130 sq ft, and one-bedders, 657 sq ft to 775 sq ft. Word on the street is that the biggest bulk purchases involve more than a dozen units.
Marina One Residences comprise 1,042 apartments housed in two towers of 34 storeys each. The 242 units released are in the Park Tower.
