A huge residential plot at Stirling Road launched by the government drew a record price of over S$1 billion in a joint bid from Logan Property Holdings (LPH)and Chinese conglomerate Nanshan Group. LPH is a new Hong Kong-listed entrant to Singapore market, originating from China’s Guangdong province
The bid of S$1,050.7 per square foot per plot ratio (psf ppr) on gross floor area is very bullish for for the 99-year-leasehold site thus setting a new record in the Queenstown area.
The site – despite its 2.11-ha size and heavy financial commitment required – saw a healthy demand of 13 bidders in total. The 227,000 sq ft plot near Queenstown MRT Station is expected to yield 1,110 units with prices projecting from S$1,700 psf upwards.
This bid signals a determination to enter the Singapore market. The top bid by the Chinese consortium is 8.3 % higher than the next highest bid tabled by MCL Land, and is 20.6 % higher than the S$871 psf ppr that MCC Land paid in June 2015 for the land parcel for Queens Peak. Competition was fairly stiff with close to half of the tenderers bidding in excess of S$900 psf ppr for the site, she added.
LPH has been studying the Singapore market for a while and believes “this is the right time to enter Singapore”.
