HELPING YOU BUY LUXURY CONDO & APARTMENTS IN SINGAPORE

A condo is considered luxurious if it fits the following six criteria:

• It is above $5 million
• It is situated in a prime location
• It is designed by a renowned architect
• Its developer is reputable
• It sports an iconic design that is Instagrammable and gorgeous
• It has a luxurious size

Branded residences are luxury homes partnered with famous premium brands. They offer owners elite status, world-class hotel-style services, and iconic architecture. Because of this prestige, buyers in cities like Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur are willing to pay up to 132% more for these homes compared to regular condo.

People choose condominiums just because they are the cheapest in terms of per square foot.

• Unclear objective: Buying for a homestay, but hopefully for investment, and realising you can’t sell later due to the wrong bedroom type.
• No exit strategy
• Lottery-style selection: Choosing units solely based on pool facing, or ‘lucky-number-floor’ or high floor.
• Never consider the URA Masterplan: choosing a ‘forgotten area’ where another area is aggressively developing.
• Not studying the market trend.

• Identification Card or Passport (must be a third-party 21 years old)
• Check with the buyer’s name (can’t use a third-party check).
  To take a loan, you will need
• CPF Statement
• Past 3 months’ payslip
• Past Year IRS Notice of Assessment (NOA)

Check your finances and affordability.
Inspect the house for any defects. It is advisable to seek professional help.
Get the agent to buy an owner search to ensure the property belongs to the seller.
Besides negotiating on the price, also negotiate on the move-in dates and furniture to be left behind.

After looking at hundreds of properties, we came up with our Property P.L.U.S. system, where we look at 4 factors to determine if a condo is good or not.
There are:

• Price – Our method to look for undervalued property
• Location – Near good transport nodes and schools
• URA Masterplan – To determine whether an area is growing in the future
• Selling Strategy – Planning on when you want to sell and who you want to sell to, to maximise your profit and sell fast!

Beyond the purchase price, condo owners must pay monthly maintenance fees (Service & Conservancy Charges). These fees cover the upkeep of facilities like the swimming pool, gym, and 24-hour security. The cost usually depends on the “share value” of your unit—larger units generally pay higher maintenance fees.

In Singapore, the main difference is the land size. A development is officially classified as a condominium if the land area is at least 4,000 square meters. If the land area is smaller, it is classified as an apartment. For owners, the facilities in a condo (like tennis courts and larger gardens) are usually more extensive due to the larger land size.

New launches offer “progressive payment schemes” and brand-new facilities, often leading to capital gains as the project nears completion. Resale condos allow you to see the actual unit and neighbourhood immediately, and you can start collecting rental income right away.
