Question

Home Buying

Asked by Stuart Myall 31 Aug 2010

I am looking at properties in D11. Most of the properties in the area are freehold but I happen to like Amaryllis Ville which is 99yr leasehold. Will this casue the property to under-perform in terms of capital appreciation? Also, will this lower the chance of getting en-bloc?

Hi Stuart,

Prices of leasehold and freehold property of similar area and layout/build will be quite similar during a property boom. However, freehold properties will be able to hold their prices better during the crisis.

Regarding enbloc, developers will have to do extra steps to get the leasehold property "topped up". And there will be more charges involved. Chance of enbloc will have to depend on the owners asking as well the competition you have in the area.

If you need help in D11.
Do let me know if you need any assistance.
