Clementi Avenue 1 site receives top bid of $491.30m

It is the first public tender launched since the ABSD increase for residential land.

The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) closed the tender for a residential site at Clementi Avenue 1 with a top bid of $491.30m or $788 psf ppr from UOL Venture Investments and UIC Homes.

Offered for sale on a 99-year lease term, the public tender launched in February 2019. Five bidders currently compete for it, such as UOL Venture Investments and UIC Homes, Vesta SG Residences, Sing Properties and MCC Land, COLI and CSC Land Group, as well as CDL Constellation, Intrepid Investments and TID Residential.

The site has been the first tender since the ABSD for residential land increased. Although the top bid remains below expectations, bidding sentiments may be encouraged by UOL-UIC’s sellout of The Clement Canopy in January.

Additionally, there is a continual need for land bank shoring. The requirements of utilising PPVC on this development is in line with the developer’s expertise, as their current project, Avenue South Residence, and The Clement Canopy both adopt this construction method.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
