Any condo with MRT at doorstep should be a good buy. My own estimation is that there are only about 40 (about 1% to 2% of all condos) of such developments in Singapore for the current MRT lines (excluding the latest Downtown 2 line). With a very limited supply of such units in the market, it should be quite safe.Originally Posted by greenhorn
Looking for tenants for rental will be very competitive with so many new developments TOP in the next 1-2 years unless there is continuous flow of expatriates into Singapore. It really boils down to location.Originally Posted by devilplate
Latest caveats show that prices for Kovan Residences are above $1,000 psf for recently launched stacks (stack 32).
Those who bought in Mar 09 at around 680-720 psf must be damn lucky to hit jackpot liao.
Those who are buying at current price levels - how? Any further upside to KR you reckon? Maybe price peak at TOP next yr? Nice development with spacious layouts, but adjourning blocks too close each other. But price now just playing catch up with recent new condo launches at >1k psf.

Yes railings or glass depends on the floor, not an option. The units with railings have sun fins at the side of the balcony. Personally, I prefer glass but guess railings are a trend now - better air circulation but more exposed to rain.
Was told subsale is picking up. Prices trending up towards TOP. Have been getting calls from agents asking to sell. Was told less than 50 large units + pent houses left.
Prices trending up nearing TOP
Anyone went down to the showflat? Any update on the selling price for this one?Originally Posted by KovanResident
Guess interest faded for this dev.Originally Posted by KC76
it will revive upon TOPOriginally Posted by KC76
Sigh, its so tough to make a decision on pty purchase these days. Wait for price to ease or hoot one in fear of further inflation...Originally Posted by devilplate
Just lamenting...
Prices are inching towards $1K psf with some units already transacting above $1K psf. NEX mall which is one MRT stop away will open partially at the end of this month. NEX mall is one MRT stop away from KR, which is good because you won't get caught in the traffic jam going in or coming out of your condo.Originally Posted by KC76
In any case, Heartland mall opposite, the wet market, upgraded hawker centre and numerous banks would be able to serve your basic needs.
If tired of Heartland mall, can go to NEX mall or City Square mall or Vivo City; all along the NE MRT line.
Once developer's units are all sold, I guess the price might hit $1.2K psf. Scala is already selling at that price, if you compare similar condos in the area.
This project not sold out yet?
30+ to go.... Should be those 4bedders as they are min 17xx+ sqft... huge quantum usually moves slowlyOriginally Posted by azeoprop
Seems that number of the ground floor units and penthouses are not sold. Not surprising because the huge areas translate to $2-3mil. In my opinion they should just re-caveat these units into common areas or club house. That would really be nice!
BTW, the developer's marketing team posted some newsletters that they created for the residents. Quite a unique personal touch I must say... the latest issue even hinted that they may have some upcoming tie-ups with Nex Mall and Heartland Mall.

I have to admit that it is good. Considering that it is their maiden project, they are quite innovative.
The rest of the developers just sell and collect $$$...

Yes, would appreciate if they were to convert some ground floor units to common space.
