A city fringe condo project in District 15 - Pebble Bay - chalked up average resale gains of more than $1,077,000 across six resale transactions in September. The top 10 most profitable projects in the month of September were varied, with developments located around the island, based on URA Realis caveat data analysed by PropNex Research.
First, some details about the methodology which entails a comparison of sales caveats. The gains garnered for the units were derived by matching the condo resale transactions in September with their previous purchase prices according to caveats lodged. The average profit was subsequently computed on a project basis. To minimise sampling errors, resale condominium projects that posted fewer than five transactions during the month are excluded from the study.
Tepid resale condo activity in September
The resale market momentum simmered in September, with 933 condo units worth $1.77 billion being resold during the month compared with the previous month, which saw 1,083 resale transactions valued at nearly $2 billion being done. In September, the top 10 most profitable projects had average profits ranging from $446,000 to $1,077,000. By a ranking of the average profit, seven projects are in the Outside Central Region (OCR), three out of the top 10 projects are in the Rest of Central Region (RCR), there were no projects in the Core Central Region (CCR) which made the top 10 rankings.
