There has been an increase in the number of executive condominium (EC) units this year, as pent-up demand is satiated by new EC launches in the first half of the year.
Despite the rise in supply, Fraser Centerpoint Limited’s (FCL) launch of Parc life has no doubt been met with renewed interest as more young married couples and families look to these private public housing hybrids as a potential start to their future investment.
After a 5-year minimum-occupation-period (MOP), their values often appreciate considerably, and after a 10-year period, they are privatized and their values can rise further, especially if they are in popular districts or near schools or MRT stations. Situated in Sembawang just 5-minutes by foot from Sembawang MRT station, bus-interchange and Sun Plaza and overlooking Canberra Park, Parc Life EC’s units start at $770 to $800 psf and feature condominium facilities such as an infinity pool, tennis courts, spas and even a pet grooming pavillion.
All of the 628 units are spread out between 3 blocks and unit sizes range between 980 to 1,055 sq ft 3-bedders to 1,281 sq ft 4-bedders and 1,550 sq ft 5-bedders. The other EC in Sembawang which was launched recently is The Visionaire, and for looking at the response, the EC market looks set to continue its good run well into the year.
