Hi Fiona,

I guess you are refering to The Minton (former Minton Rise).

Minton Rise were sold at an average of $850psf for the 3 bedroom units. Hence the total will be more than 700k.

There are many aspects to property investments. You have to consider your cash flow, tenancy demand, capital gain, potential gain etc.. However, you will most likely have to trade off some of the factors in this realistic world.

You can probably read up about this all over the internet. However, feel free to call me for an discussion. At the same time I would interested to see if I can be of solution to your real estate needs regarding Minton.

Hello Fiona,

Having a real estate investment portfolio is certainly an impoartant aspect of all investments. Having said that, there are certain key components to real estate INVESTMENT, that differ from OWN STAY real estate:

1. Convenience - Access to transport, ammenities
2. Shock Resilience - FH vs 99 yearleasehold properties behave very differently during economic downturns.
3. District

There are many more points to consider and discuss if you would like to know more on these.

Off hand, The Minton is 1km + from any major infrastructure network (MRT), it being leasehold makes it susceptible to economic shocks. Thirdly, it is in D19, far from the central core regions of D9,10,11 or the prime districts of D15,16. Thus captial appreciation potential is vastly limited.

With the $700K budget that you have, you are far better off considering some of the projects that are FREEHOLD, and in the stated regions.

Please feel free to browse my website or call me to discuss more!
