Hi Mrs Jesline,

The selling size should refer to information provided by Singapore Land Authority over "Land Information - Lot Particulars". As they are the authority over land size.

You may also engaged a private surveyor to conduct the actual site measurement. You may bring to SLA attention if there are discrepancy and appeal for changes.

In a normal landed property, it dependent on the Master plan issued by URA on type of property allowed to build; Bungalow, Semi-D, terrace.

There are guidelines provided over the height, and number of level allowed for different types of property.

For example, usually the plot ratio for landed property is 1.4, which means you are allowed to build up to 5 storey, but for Semi-D and terrace house maximum storey is only 3, with a maximum height of 15m. Thus in the end you are only allowed to build up to 3 storey max. Thus in this case, plot ratio is not critical in a landed sales.

Hope the above answer to your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Dear Jesline,

Typical considerations for buyers when they make a purchase of a landed home is based on the land size price per square foot in relative to what has been already sold for. Developers purchase land based on this aspect too, and on top of that, they are on the look out for the redevelopment potential, the amount of development charges it will be applicable to them, therefore I am afraid you maybe looking abit far ahead in your consideration process, looking into the plot ratio as this actually determines the restriction of a developer's redevelopment plans.

I have been dealing with landed homes since 2010, along with my department of landed consultants who have been primarily dealing with landed homes for more than 15 years therefore I believe with our department's extensive knowledge in landed homes, we will be able to value add your plans moving forward.

Hi Mrs Kek,

Thank you for your query!
Firstly, I would like to highlight that the plot ratio determines the restriction of a developer's redevelopment plans, and does not have much impact in pricing as you may have previously thought. I agree with you that different agents would give differing accounts which might clutter your understanding, hence, I would suggest you shortlist and work alongside an experienced and well knowledgable individual who will not only guide you on the process, but explain the framework for sales, do the financial plan and share sales report & transaction caveats for your understanding.

With regards to selling your property in this testing and constantly evolving market, you may wish to consider appointing a professional to handle the entire sales responsibilities. What you would get in return is- sincere 100% commitment, succinct coordination of viewings, extreme grip and control on price and avoidance of price wars and ill practices. Sometimes, it is not limited to just arranging viewings or qualifying buyers, but more of a professional who will guide you on your financial sums ( amalgamation of sales proceeds and CPF return) etc, plus handle all the associated paperwork.

In this weak market, you would require an extreme level of professionalism and high knowledge level to help your property attain maximum exposure and yet reap a profitable purchase price. Furthermore, a preliminary non obligatory discussion would allow me to shed some light on my working style and comprehensive marketing strategies to get your unit maximum exposure through the various mediums and more. In addition, it will be best to understand more on the market insights as well as for me to run through the overview procedural framework.

Hi Jesline,

For landed property, land size is an important consideration for potential buyers but other factors such as floor area, number of level, shape of land, orientation and facing and interior conditions of unit will also determine the sale price of the house.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can gather more information from you and advice you on the pricing of your property.

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients (2016/2017)
“I would like to recommend Nick Tan from SRI. Before we engaged Nick, we were working with another agent from a very popular property agency in February 2017. We decided to terminate the contract after 5 weeks of zero viewings and no paper advertisements. Basically he was just waiting for phone calls. We engaged Nick on 20th April and by 10th of May, our unit was sold off. Why Nick? 1. He has good marketing strategies 2. He always kept us posted on what he did (communications!) 3. He made sure we understand the current market situation but he will consistently reassure us that the unit can be sold off 4. He is not greedy and trusting 5. He walks the talk”

Peter & Wendy (Property Seller)

“We are very grateful to Nick for his extensive marketing efforts. With his comprehensive marketing plan, he helped us to achieve a record selling price within 2 weeks of listing our property for sale! We highly recommend his service to anyone who is keen to sell their properties.”
Mr & Mrs Wong (Property Seller)

“Nick has conducted himself ethically and professionally when handling the sales of our property. Thanks to his patience and perseverance, we managed to secure a sales price beyond our expectations.
We are very happy and satisfied with his services and will definitely recommend him to our friends and family in the future.”
Mr & Mrs Tan (Seller of Inter-Terrace House)

“Nick provides a delightful customer experience from day one when I engage him as my agent to look for a flat of my choice to the completion of the deal. He is competent, resourceful and has a pleasant manner to work with. He is the Agent of my choice in dealing with properties and I would highly recommend him to others who would appreciate an agent that takes care and can give the customer a peaceful mind.”
Susana (Buyer)

“Nick is very pro-active in helping us to resolve whatever questions and problems that we encountered. All the issues are settled even before us having to request or ask for a second time. He was very frank and transparent with all the details, limitations and advantages that we wouldn’t have known. I think this is the most important virtue to be successful in this line. I will surely recommend him to anyone who needs his service because I trust that they will be equally satisfied!!”

Good afternoon Jesline,

you will be looking t location, land size, built up area, tenureship, number of storeys/ bedrooms etc will determine how much can you sell as a landed seller.

As for plot ratio, developer will be looking at it if its a mixed landed area whether condos/ apartments can be built. If not most buyers will be looking at the landed housing height restriction if they intend to rebuild the site.

Hope my sharing is informative and value adding towards your property needs.

May I know how can I value add further in your landed sale?

Good day Mrs Jesline Kek .

As per your question , plot ratio is NOT relevant unless your land is very large, example large enough to built a condo..........Not possible with your land size .

When determining price ,
Factors such as Location,
Primary importance is land size ,
tenure freehold or leasehold ,
built up area meaning how many storey is your house , the built up area is of no significant if the house is very old , therefore will be completely demolished and rebuilt , vice versa, built up area or how many storey is your house will be relevant if your house is quite new therefore most parts of the house will be kept intact .

Kindly contact me Joanne chia Hp 8333 3327  for a no obligations chat for your property needs.

There are many sources of transacted prices that serve as a guide when determining prices , please contact me and allow me to show you .

My charges are 1% commission for exclusive ( sole agent ) selling rights to your landed or 2% for open listing ( many agents marketing ) .

Thank you .
