Ride at your own risk !!!
btw, Keppel sold 15% stake in Tanah Merah plot to Wanke, China largest developer (probably in exchange of some deals in China)
Keppel land is so aggressive in land bid .. I must kowtow ... FEO is history liao
correction, 30% stake, not 15%
also from Keppel report:
Moving forward, the group will focus on the core markets of Singapore and China while strengthening its position in Vietnam and Indonesia.

It was so easy for us all to put in the numbers. Some might be bullish but nowhere near these developers who are putting in real $$$.
I hold tight tight to my unit there. Waiting to reach at least $1.8k psf.
I thought it is a F'hold project.. till I read this page..Originally Posted by bargain hunter
OMG!! Is a 99-year LH.. moreover will be selling at $2k psf..
Suddenly have a feeling that those currently on the resale mkt is a underpriced..
as we had been discussing for quite awhile. several reasons why buyers prefer new launches vs resale right? i think all those reasons are still valid.

It will happen in late May.
Huat ah....$2500psf for Kim Tian?
A record high land price of $1,162.86 was set by Keppel Land in April 2013 for a Kim Tian Road residential site. The winning bid of $550.28 million dollars was (we think almost reckless) 7.2% above the next highest bidder. Made amidst the still bullish market in early 2013 just before the Government jammed the brakes using the TDSR measures in June 2013, Highline Residences is expected to launch within the second quarter of 2014 to a lukewarm property market.
Just for a quick site price comparison, the troubled South Beach project site was won with a bid of $1,069 psf ppr in July 2007 and the more recent Clermont Residences at Tanjong Pagar Centre’s land price was $1,006 psf ppr in November 2010. These two developments are facing strong headwinds in selling their high end luxury projects, with South Beach repeatedly delaying launch until even today. Will Highline Residences face the same headwinds as these two premium ultra luxury projects, or will Keppel Land launch their units and price them according to the current market conditions after realizing their folly in paying such a high price for this Kim Tian road site?
Wow even more expensive than clermont land. I will be very surprised if anyone buys into this development as it is akin to helping developers to pay for land costs. Even the glades at tenah merah has problem moving units, much less at this plot.
Highline Residences sales gallery officially closed, until the first-day sales that will happen next Saturday 13 Sep.
So far 200+ cheques submitted. Dunno how much discounts will be given though...
Sales gallery was very very packed over the last 2 weekends.

1bd 506- Est $1mil to $1.2mil (1976-2371psf)

635 sq ft 2 bedroom. For dogs. And 1076 is deluxe 3 bedroom. Maybe deluxe for dogs again.
Some nett prices to share share from today sales:
1 br (506 sqf)
I. #08-09 = $935K (1,848psf)
II. #11-09 = $953K (1,883psf)
2BR (667sqf)
#10-14 = $1,208,000 (1,811 psf)

#6-11 = $1,462.7K (1,598psf)
#9-11 = $1,488K (1,626psf)
Ya from a high level comparison, Highline pricing is
- comparable to echelon's units of similar floor eg Echelon's 2BR (732sf) #10-10 is 1,867psf and #10-4 is 1,831psf, #10-7/14=$1,778psf
- about 100psf higher than Alex Resi eg Alex's 2 BR #10-11 is 1,683sf and #10-2 is 1,742sf
how many sold?
SINGAPORE - Home buyers picked up about 80 per cent of the first 160 units launched at Highline Residences in Kim Tian Road over the weekend, developer Keppel Land said on Sunday.
The average price of the units sold on Saturday and Sunday was $1,900 per sq ft (psf), in line with property watchers' expectations.
Keppel Land had previously given an indicative price of $2,000 psf for homes in the 500-unit condominium, located within walking distance of Tiong Bahru MRT Station and the Tiong Bahru Plaza mall. But this was before taking into account a "special preview discount" that was not disclosed.
glad u provided us with the disclosed discounted prices.

Heh the never ending debate between psf vs. quantum. I still think psf matters more than quantum in the long run for capital appreciation - especially for properties <3m. I wonder how much capital appreciation can someone who pays 1900psf for leasehold tiong bahru expect? But 100+ buyers don't agree with me, so maybe I am wrong!
tis is bullish news for property market , especially after TDSR, ...as long as the location is right, there will be people seeing value in it! I believe TDSR will create alot of ammunition for some in 2 to 3 years time, and property is still the way for investment , unless stock market is attractive!
i agree with you with regards to the importance of psf in the long run. but rather than say twin regency owners laugh all the way to the bank, what u said below may be more fair.
anyway 1900psf is before discount, but we can safely say standard units average > 1700psf for this new project.
