I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 15 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market. Check out the EdgeProp featured article on myself recently at https://www.edgeprop.sg/property-news/geryl-lim-leading-landed-real-estate-heart-hustle-and-harmony
I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.
Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 15,900 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.
With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

**Sylvan Lodge** (143 Holland Road, D10) is a boutique, 4-storey freehold apartment completed in 2006. With only **8 units**, living there offers exclusivity and proximity to Holland Village MRT, but residents face distinct challenges common to ultra-boutique developments:
---
### 1. High Sinking Fund & Maintenance Cost Burden
With only 8 units sharing the total MCST estate expenses, there are no economies of scale. Even though facilities are minimal (no swimming pool, gym, or tennis courts), essential operational costs—lift maintenance, refuse clearance, building insurance, structural repairs, facade repainting, and pest control—are divided among just 8 subsidiary proprietors. Any major capital expenditure (e.g., lift motor replacement or waterproofing) results in significant ad-hoc cash calls.
### 2. Lack of On-Site Facilities & Security
* **No Guardhouse / Security Post:** Security relies on automated access gates and intercoms rather than round-the-clock physical security guards.
* **No Condominium Lifestyle Amenities:** Buyers seeking recreational facilities must rely on external clubs or public sports complexes nearby.
### 3. Traffic Noise & Ingress Along Holland Road
Located directly fronting **Holland Road**, units face ambient vehicular noise, dust, and heavy peak-hour traffic heading towards Orchard or the AYE. Entering and exiting the small compound during morning and evening rush hours can be tight and challenging.
### 4. Limited Sinking Fund Reserves & Slower En-Bloc Traction
While freehold District 10 land is prime, small 8-unit sites occupy modest plots (~580 sqm land area). Developers evaluating collective sales often find small land plots less flexible for high-density redevelopment compared to larger contiguous plots, unless combined with adjacent parcels.
