A jump of interest in high-end luxury homes pushed prices in the segment, which has underperformed the rest of the market over the last two years, to a fresh all-time high in Q4 2010. In the rest of the market, prices of private homes as well as HDB resale flats grew more slowly in the fourth quarter compared to the first three quarters of last year. Flash estimates released by the Urban Redevelopment...
2010 has been an impressive year for the landed housing segment, with prices rising 23 per cent in the first three quarters, including a 7.7-per-cent increase in the third quarter from the second.

Prices of luxury condos have continued to rise this year but a new rule may soon tie the hands of the developers. Currently many developers have picked their time to launch developments when sentiments are good and decent prices can be charged. But under the rule changes which are expected to come in early next year, they may lose this choice. If they exceed the project completion period on sites bought...
Despite the numerous Government policies to cool the property market in Singapore, the high-end residential segment has not been adversely affected. To begin with, the Government measures implemented thus far are targeted at the mass market, which has seen property values rising ahead of economic recovery. Based on Jones Lang LaSalle estimates, the average resale capital value for areas outside the prime...
It’s easy to understand why The Sail is the most actively traded project in the prime Marina Bay area.
