According to Christine Sun, Senior Vice President of Research and Analytics at OrangeTee and Tie, the launches of these two OCR projects led to the bulk of last month’s sales coming from the OCR at 69.5 per cent. This is followed by CCR units at 20.1 per cent and RCR units at 10.4 per cent.Sun pointed out that the proportion of new non-landed homes sold above $2,000 psf has increased from 45.7 per cent in January this year to 84.3 per cent last month.
Notably, as OCR projects such as AMO Residence, Sky Eden@Bedok and Lentor Modern were launched above S$2,000 psf, the proportion of new non-landed homes sold in the OCR above such a price psf has surged from 12.6per cent in January to 80.3 per cent in September.“The sales performance of both projects was astounding, considering their price points, interest rate hikes and growing uncertainties on the macroeconomic front.
Lee Sze Teck, Senior Director at Huttons Asia, added that the launches of the two OCR projects last month has bumped up the proportion of new homes priced up to $1.5 million to 22.3 per cent, more than double the 10.6 per cent sold in August. With 45.7 per cent of the units in these projects sold between $1.5 million to $2 million, Lee noted that this range could be the sweet spot pricing for homes in the OCR moving forward.
“HDB upgraders were taking the opportunity to ride on the strong HDB resale market to buy a private home. As buying a new home is on progressive payment and the first drawdown on loan is usually one year later, this will allow buyers to ride out the current high-interest environment.”Project Name
