Hi,

Just my humble 2 cents with the limited info given. In your case since your main aim is capital appreciation, you should consider a 99 year leasehold new launch that TOP in 3-4 years time, as one, the entry price is lower than freehold and two, you be funding it using progressive payment scheme. Getting a completed property means you have to cope with a currently softening rental market, which means your monthly costs may work out to be the same.

I do have some recommendations and value-buy in this category. Thanks and may I understand your requirements further so to value-add better to your plans?

Warm Regards,

Asking for opinion here is being passive. Getting on the ground for viewing the different projects available to achieve your objective will be the right way to proceed. While being on the ground, you will then have a better feel of which project should you go for in terms of good prospective rental given the location and actual environment. Unlike what we say in chinese, talking about soldiers on paper.

Afternoon,

If you are looking at capital appreciation, targeting new launches that are nearing TOP would be beneficial. The only thing is to understand the geographic and facing of the unit.

Do contact me further for detail discussions.

For investment, always look at project near mrt for easy rental. Even after 5yrs you can choose to sell it off with tenancy.

Hi buyer,

You should certainly look for new developments, with both capital appreciation potential, and rental yield.

You could consider the east side, with the new MRT stations coming up, SUTD, Project Jewel, and new airport terminals.

Feel free to contact me, and I'd show you some really nice units.

Thanks and regards,

Hi,
For investment, the consideration should be the rental yield and capital appreciation. Location is very important, it must be near to mrt station. Not necessary to be freehold as most of the free hold are not very near to mrt station.
I have a few project for your consideration.

To assist and advise you more in details, kindly drop me an email for me to share.

I am contactable at my mobile or email.

Hi, I would advice going for new project that is under construction. And there are some good projects worth investing with like Sims Urban Oasis which is just 5 mins walk to Aljunied MRT. Besides, James Cook University is just mins away which you will have a good pool of tenants from there wanting to view once this project gets TOP. Pls feel free to let me know if you need any assistance.

Good evening buyer,

You can consider new launch for capital appreciation and rental yield when it TOP. Best in those locations that government has announced news that they will develop over there or build new MRT or have nearby existing MRT. But do take note that you might face competition for tenants with your neighbours.

If not, you can consider resale units with tenancy where you can get instant rental returns straight away but you might not enjoy any capital appreciation.

Tenure of course will play some part in your decision making but as an investor, you should focus more on capital appreciation and rental yield potential.

A 99 leasehold that's near MRT might can give you a better rental yield compared to a freehold property nearby due to the lower entry cost.

Lastly let me share some good news with you!

There are a few developers which will be hit by QC and ABSD might reduce their pricing for those affected projects.

If you are willing to wait, I might be able to introduce some good buys in the near future.

Sounds good right?
