Good morning,

Generally yes as the buyers are able to see and visualize the actual unit and can see themselves moving in soon. This creates more urgency for buyers who found an ideal unit and are willing to pay a bit higher to outbid the competition and secure. Prior to TOP there is some uncertainty for buyers who have trouble visualizing the size off plan, hence a potential reason for hesitancy to put in a higher offer.

May I know which development you are looking at? Happy to share the latest transaction data for your relevant purchase.

May I have more info and requirements about your plans so as to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

Mr Wang & Ms Ng : We want to convey our thanks to Ivan, who helped us find our first home. Ivan was very responsive when we first met, and took time to understand our needs and requirements for our first home. He helped us narrow down our criteria and gave us good advice on how to structure our mortgage as well. He also made a great recommendation of an area we never thought of, and it was where we eventually bought our home. We appreciate Ivan's thoroughness in pros and cons of all our options that we viewed. We never felt pressured or rushed to make a decision. In fact, Ivan gave honest and useful inputs on the considerations of acting immediately or waiting. All in all, it was a very smooth experience and we ate very happy with the unit we bought. Thank you very much, Ivan! Read More

Good morning Sir/ Mdm,

Unit price usually appreciate in midst of construction with inflations and market conditions contributing to it as well.

Buyers are more willing to pay a premium when they are able to feel and see the unit.

Care to share which are the projects you are looking at so I will be in a better position to advise and assist you further.

Hope my sharing helps in aiding in your enquiry. May I know how can I value add further in your property needs?

Best regards,

Hi,
Prices of new launch increase during various stages. When developers hit certain milestones like 50% or 80% sold, they tend to increase prices. Upon completion of 3 years of purchase (when SSD expires) prices tend to increase as buyers tend to do sub-sales. Upon TOP, prices tend to be higher as well. So, over time from launch to TOP and thereafter, prices of new launch always tend to be higher. As such, if you plan to buy a sub-sale unit, you got to exercise caution. Are you paying over and above the market price?

Ideally, you want to buy a new launch nearby that particular location which will put you in a better stead than buying a sub-sale. So, it all depends on your needs and wants. Please do contact me directly, so that I may shed more light on this matter.
Cheers!

Hi Sir/Mdm,

For newly TOP projects, upon TOP it will become more competitively because potential buyers will be able to visit the project and upon purchase, they will be able to move in sooner and therefore typically after TOP the pool of potential buyer will be larger.

If you are firm on the project, then it is better to purchase before the TOP in my opinion. Feel free to contact me so that I can understand your requirements and assist you further!

Hi

If you look at the price trend over the past 15 years, you will realize that the price has escalated. This is largely due to housing inflation.

It would seem better to buy before TOP as price may increase because the potential buyer who may have an urgent need for the housing are prepared to be competitive. Besides, which seller is willing to sell low when the market is vibrant.

You may text 9620 0827  for a casual chat. We can share with you the transaction process, timeline and an estimated financial commitment. Besides, there is no commission payable for buying private property. Moreover, you can leverage on our experience in buying property.

Warmest regards

Hi,

I would be most glad to assist you further and please feel free to let me know if you need any assistance. Have a good day ahead. By the way, in general purchasing a new launch project would tend to give you the maximum capital appreciation as compared to a subsale or a resale.
