Sales Status: Eight Courtyards, Hedges Park, Centra Heights etc...

Eight Courtyards
Fraser Centrepoint and Far East Organization have sold 202 of the 280 apartments released at Eight Courtyards, a 99-year condo in Yishun priced at $795psf on average. The price is noticeably lower than recent new mass market launch prices and therefore attractive to buyers, say some experts.

A one-bedroom unit costs $423,000 to $564,000, a two-bedder is between $637,000 and $751,000, while three-bedder would set a buyer back by $703,000 to $1.03 million.

Eight Courtyards comprises 654 apartments and two shop units. Preview for the project began last Friday.

Frasers Centrepoint said that Singaporeans and permanent residents picked up 92% of the 202 units sold at Eight Courtyards. Foreigners – mostly from China and Indonesia – accounted for the other 8% of buyers.

Frasers Centrepoint also dished out other statistics of the buyer profile: 63% were HDB upgraders; and half of the buyers live in Yishun, Sembawang or Woodlands.

All 30 one-bedroom units in the development have been snapped up. The project also includes two, three and four-bedroom units as well as dual-key units.
