Live take-up — this project has launched

URA developer-sales data now covers this project, so the pre-launch estimate gives way to actual figures. Latest median $2,310 psf; 380 of 399 units sold to date (~95%). Around 13 units sold in the last 3 months.

Our pre-launch estimate vs actual: we projected an indicative band of $2,041–$2,722 psf (mid $2,171); the launch is transacting at a median $2,310 psf — our midpoint was ~6% low. We keep this scorecard public as launches print real prices — see every call we’ve made.

How the price is built from cost

A developer’s launch price starts from what the site and the building actually cost — including the taxes that never appear on a brochure. Here is that build-up for this site, per square foot. (Construction is a spec-tier estimate; see the land-to-launch model for the sources and method.)

Land (awarded bid)$900 psf ppr
+ Stamp duty on land 6% BSD + 5% non-remittable ABSD+$99
Construction mid spec, location-independent$375
+ GST on construction 9%, non-recoverable on residential+$34
Break-even ÷ 0.95 saleable-area efficiency$1,482
+ Soft costs & developer margin fees, marketing, finance, ~10–13% margin+$370
Cost-plus floor$1,852
Indicative launch this page’s estimate (resale + cost anchors)$2,171
Premium over cost-plus floor what the market pays above build cost+17%
The 35% remittable ABSD is not in this build-up because it is refunded if the developer sells every unit within 5 years of buying the land — but it is why launches often discount to clear stock as that deadline nears. Figures are estimates, per square foot, for education only.

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.

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.
