Indicative pricing outlook

The developer has not announced pricing. This is HomeVestor’s indicative $psf band from URA data — a yardstick, not a quote. It triangulates three references: nearby resale uplifted by the measured new-launch premium, what currently-selling launches in the region achieve, and — where the site was tendered — the land price the developer paid.

$2,549
~$2,712 psf
$2,911
Nearby resale + launch premium — comparable resale within ~1–2 km × the RCR new-launch premium
$2,712
Recent RCR launches — median achieved $psf of currently-selling RCR launches
$2,722
Land + construction — awarded land $1,410 psf ppr + ~$375 construction (spec tier, location-independent) + efficiency & margin
$2,911

The midpoint implies a ~+45% new-build premium over comparable resale nearby (median $1,876 psf, RCR condos within ~1–2 km) — the premium buyers here have historically paid for a fresh 99-year lease and new product. That mid sits +0% versus currently-selling RCR launches (median $2,722 psf) — broadly in line with its regional cohort.

From the land price: the developer paid $1,410 psf ppr — effectively ~$1,565 after 6% BSD and the 5% non-remittable ABSD on residential land. Construction for this spec runs a roughly fixed ~$375 psf (+9% non-recoverable GST), so the break-even is ~$2,078 psf. Adjusting for saleable-area efficiency and a typical margin points to a launch around $2,911 psf (~2.06× the land).

How is this worked out? — anchors, premium, period
What it is
An indicative $psf band — HomeVestor model output, not a developer price. The developer has announced no pricing.
Anchors
We triangulate up to four references: nearby resale $psf (URA, within ~1–2 km) uplifted by the measured new-launch premium; the median achieved $psf of currently-selling launches in the same region; launches now selling nearby; and, where the site was tendered, the GLS/collective-sale land price plus a roughly fixed construction cost, uplifted for saleable-area efficiency and margin (see the land-to-launch model). The band midpoint is the resale-based anchor; the others set the band’s width.
Premium
The RCR new-launch premium (~45%) is estimated from URA developer-sales medians against nearby resale for launches now on the market.
Source / period
URA Data Service developer sales & transactions, trailing ~14 months; nearby resale from the HomeVestor fair-value set.
Note: a wide band reflects genuine uncertainty before launch. Treat it as a yardstick to test the developer’s eventual pricing against — not a quote.

Nearby resale — what the neighbours trade at

Median transacted $psf of the nearest comparable condos (URA, past ~5 years). Unit-level details are masked. This is the “or buy resale instead” benchmark the pricing band is measured against.

How RCR launches are selling

Across 33 currently-selling RCR projects (URA developer sales): a median of 95% of units sold to date, and 64% are past 80% sold. Typical first-month take-up in this region ran ~54%. A launch priced into a slow-absorbing cohort carries more exit risk.

Competing supply nearby

Within ~2 km: about 0 unsold units in launches already selling, plus 0 units across 0 other pipeline projects we track. More competing new supply caps how fast a launch can raise prices — and how easily you resell before TOP.

How is this worked out? — cohort, source
Basis
Take-up is the region cohort of projects with URA developer-sales activity; nearby supply counts unsold units within ~2 km plus tracked pipeline sites.
Source
URA Data Service developer sales & pipeline; HomeVestor launch pipeline.

Money math — stress-test a price

Enter an indicative $psf and unit size to see stamp duties, the progressive-payment timeline and the resale price you’d need to break even. All figures estimates.

How is this worked out? — stamp duty, payment scheme, breakeven
Stamp duty
BSD tiers and ABSD rates per IRAS (in data/rates.json, verified 9 Jul 2026).
Payments
Standard Normal Payment Scheme for building-under-construction; stages are indicative.
Breakeven
All-in entry cost recovered net of ~3% selling costs and Seller’s Stamp Duty for the exit year; ignores loan interest and price growth.
Note: Confirm stamp duties with IRAS; ABSD remissions may apply to some buyers.
Indicative only — not financial advice or a quotation.

Three things to check at launch: (1) where the developer’s actual $psf lands versus the band above; (2) whether early take-up beats the region cohort; (3) whether nearby competing supply is rising or clearing. A licensed advisor can run these against your own budget and timeline.
