In a land scare country like S'pore occupying about 700sqkm and with apopulation of about 4.68M. Is it true that 85% dweller living in HDB, 12% living in condos & pte apt while Top-Notch 3% S'porean living in Land-Titles Landed property? In Fact, 1.5% FH, 1% 999yrs LeaseHold & 0.5% 99yrs LeaseHold? Why nowadays, government never have land sales which is FreeHold & when they acquire FH property, they put through land sales as 99yrs LeaseHold? Is It mean FreeHold Landed Property will be very very limited & talk of the town in year 2008?

I have someone recently bought a FH Land-Title Landed property of land size 1705sqft. It is a 2-Sty terrace house with an attic & a basement. The total built-up area of this so called 4-Sty terrace is 3559sqft in D13. The price tag is S$2,238.000 which translated into S$1313psf but the agent told him it is S$629psf. My understanding is land title landed property is based on land area which is S$1313psf unless it is strata-title cluster house then it will be S$629psf. Anyway, quite a few had transacted at S$1313psf which mean it is boasting D13 area. Secondly, someone bought a terrace house at D19. Same, 2-Sty with attic & basement. Land area 1614sqft & built-up area 3238sqft, transacted at S2,200,000. It translate into S$1363psf instead of agent told her it is S$679psf. What is your take regarding the above issue, D13 senette estate at city fringe & vibriant D19 at serangoon garden?

Think back, 30-40yrs back, a 20000sqft detached house in Nassim road costs S$80K-S$90K, but at current situation, it costs min S$20M. So, what is the percentage of return? Imagine, if you buy say a 99yrs super high end condo at S$29M for say 5178sqft which translate into S$5600psf. Usually, before it T.O.P, it takes 2-3yrs. So minus the remaining lease it is about 96yrs lease from T.O.P, what is the upside of this super high end condo? Assuming the ultra rich owner never sell, per year basis, it depreciate by S$302K, wow ! it is a lot like deprciating a 4rm flat on per yr basis. But if you buy say a S$20M 20000sqft detached in cluny park, what is the upside. To me, to appreciate to S$30M is within reach given the fact that a FH Land-Title Landed property own this piece of 20000sqft land whereas Strata-Title FH condo does not own any land except it merely share the land with its neighbour, be it very exclusive 35 tenants or not so exclusive 2000 tenants? What is your comment?

Is it all right to invest heavily on FH Land-Title Landed Property right now? First, we saw a 99yrs leasehold land sales @sembawang sold at $300psf by government meaning to say that those in city fringe like D12 & D13 will see price appreciate a lot. Second, if we can control the landbank of all FH Land-Title Landed Property, in the event, government may want to buy from the pte land owner since the Residential Property Act kick in last sep'07 that any acquisition by government body will be based on current market value. Then in that case who know that even in changi, per sqft will be asking for S$5000.

Will prices & rentals of landed homes set to rise? Is land scarcity in S'pore here to stay & ensure sustainable capital growth? What is the exact percentage of S'poreans living in landed housing? Although landed homes rose 23.4% last year compare to 0.6% in 2004 & 2.4% in 2005 according to URA's index of landed pte residential property, but they have yet to play catch up with their non-landed counterparts, is it truth or false? Is it truth that there are several reasons for optimism across all landed housing segments this year because the price index of landed homes remains some 25% below the peak of 2Q 1996? Emerging from a relatively low base, is it truth that landed properties look more appealing to investors this year? Given the above factors, is it truth that landed housing market should be able to attain capital gains of 15% to 25% this year, notwithstanding the continued US credit turmoil?
