The Panorama Condo Review
If you’ve read a couple of my earlier posts, you will realize that I’ve used a lot of numbers, statistics, and historical figures/trends to analyze the market or a particular property.
The reason is simple. Because numbers don’t lie, statistics don’t lie, historical data don’t lie.
You don’t need to understand rocket science in order to do such analysis work before you enter/exit the property market.
Let’s do this again. I’ll share with you this particular new launch that I have been studying recently.
Honestly, if you are looking to grow your assets, you probably won’t want to miss The Panorama condo.
BELOW MARKET PRICE…SERIOUSLY!
On 09 January 2013, Wheelock Properties put in a winning bid for this particular land site at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 2 – a staggering amount of S$789.89 psf ppr.
When I saw this piece of news, immediately I knew that it was an absolutely ridiculous amount for a plot at Ang Mo Kio. Why? Let us take a look at the estimated financial costing involved:
As it states, the estimated breakeven cost for Wheelock Properties will be S$1,243 psf ppr. Take note again, that’s the BREAKEVEN price.
That’s the kind of price that developers will sell if they don’t want to make a single cent out of this property.
And frankly, no property developers will do that…until now! If you’ve been actively monitoring government land sales, en bloc sales, and pricing of the development that will be eventually built on them, you would realize that many were sold at an average of 70% to 80% higher than the cost price for the site.
Some even went as high as twice the amount.
Let’s look at a few examples which are relatively close to The Panorama condo:
Clearly, property developers of the surrounding developments priced their development at an average of 200% more than the price which they bought or en-bloc that piece of land for.
For The Panorama condo, the site was bought at S$789.89 psf ppr.
So technically, it should be priced at an average of S$1580psf (based on a 200% gain). Now, let’s look at the average PSF transacted ever since it was launched in January 2014.
It was only S$1,262 psf!
This is probably one of the cheapest new launch condos that you can find in today’s challenging market.
When your entry price is lower than your neighboring new developments earlier, I would say your risk is very much lower than the rest.
Pretty much all to gain and very little to lose. However, if you need convenience at your doorstep, you can also consider Thomson Three or Thomson Impressions which are just down the road.
While there is little doubt that The Panorama Ang Mo Kio will be an upscale, fashionable address to be living at once completed, its other chief features must be reiterated.
- It provides for a wholesome living experience that is rich in excitement and pleasure for both children and adults.
- It shall be as a safe and secure escape from urban hustle-bustle but conveniently close to all modern amenities.
- The Panorama condo represents wonderful prospects from the investment perspective – the property is expected to witness much appreciation with time.
Thus, this real estate project is set to be a most successful venture and a top living destination in tomorrow’s Singapore.
You are likely to expect a quality development from Wheelock Properties as they are well-known for some of their most luxurious developments in prime districts in Singapore:
- Ardmore II
- Ardmore Park
- Grange Residences
- Scotts Square
- Orchard View
