Oxley Tower

1,010

Office or retail spaces in Singapore’s Central Business District (CBD) is probably one of the rarest asset class to own in this metropolis, for any investors or business owners. Oxley Tower simply presented itself as an exceptional investment option, for prospects to own a freehold commercial space in the heart of the CBD.

Here’s a quick fact (a well-known one) – almost half of the Top 10 wealthiest people in Singapore have made billions from the real estate sector. And in a country where land is scarce, investing in property has been proven to pay off quite handsomely for most of them.

And unlike the residential property segment, buyers need not pay additional taxes (the Additional Buyers’ Stamp Duty in particular) for commercial properties in Singapore, which makes it an even more attractive option for real estate investment.

So what does Oxley Tower has to offer? Let’s dig deep into it!

Oxley Tower Location

Oxley Tower is located in practically into the heart of CBD of Singapore, at 138 Robinson Road, and it’s definitely one of busiest stretch with high-foot traffic – at the intersection of Robinson Road and McCallum Street.

Oxley Tower Review

Oxley Tower’s architecture is indeed a masterpiece of its own class. When night falls, the building will illuminate, enhancing the liveliness and vibrancy along the street and capture passersby attention.

Apart from its stunning appearance, it does offer SMEs or start-ups to gain a foothold in the Central Business District of Singapore –  at a very affordable price.

But of course, that’s if you are purchasing for your own consumption or renting it out, the branding of the location would be absolutely the top priority.

What about from an investor point of view?

First of all, here is an idea of Oxley Tower’s price point and you can see that “sub sales” or “flipping” had already taken place before the project was completed.

In our opinion, Oxley Tower does present itself as a rare investment opportunity in today’s property market. Most of the commercial buildings in the area, especially Grade A offices are mostly owned and leased out by the property developers themselves.

Their tenants are mostly big corporations, MNCs who have the financial muscles to take up these units at sky-rocket rental rates.

As an investor for Oxley Tower, you will definitely have your own pool of potential tenants to work with and will definitely appeal to smaller companies as they are relatively cheaper than those mega office towers in the CBD. The demand will certainly be there.

Also, the chance to own freehold commercial property at Robinson Road is simply hard to come by. The tenure is truly the best attribute to your investment at Oxley Tower and we personally feel it’s indeed something which will have its value preserved for a very long time – especially with the ongoing plans of expanding the CBD, Marina Bay Financial District and the future waterfront city.
