Scb11980 1st Gear December 21, 2011 Share December 21, 2011 Unit at The Marq sets S$6,850 psf record 20 Dec 2011 PropertyGuru The recent cooling measures which require foreigners buying private property in Singapore to fork out an additional 10 percent stamp duty, is expected to curb skyrocketing property prices. And if recent transacted prices at certain luxury developments are anything to go by, the new measures could not have come at a better time. A prime example is The Marq on Paterson Hill. The latest deal involved a 2,950 sq ft unit on a high floor which was sold to a European buyer for a whopping S$6,850 psf, a new record for Singapore ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

W210k 1st Gear December 21, 2011 Share December 21, 2011 Available land bank is fixed. Population is growing real fast. Demand for a roof grows in tandem - be it owner-occupied, or tenanted. (same analogy to rising COEs from growing demand for car ownership or rental ... cos both will push up COE prices) FTs pouring in with cash in hand. Tell me, how can property prices come down significantly, if at all? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viceroymenthol 6th Gear December 21, 2011 Share December 21, 2011 Already tell you all liao. When there is still SO MUCH INTEREST in property and everybody is waiting for prices to drop so that they can buy, the prices won't drop much if at all. You see, this interest still represents great demand. If i remember correctly, the only time prices crashed was when NOBODY wanted them. I remember back in 2002 to 2005, the market was so bad that developers were literally begging you to buy their condos, giving discounts left and right. Showrooms were empty. And this was back when 20% was enough for downpayment, only buyers 3% stamp duty, no penalty for flipping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
