141 OCR condos sold above $2m in July

The Outside Core Central Region led the new home sales market last month.

The Outside Central Region (OCR) condo market breached a new high in July, with 397 new sales breaking the December 2020 record of 293 units.

Amongst those sales, 141 units sold for at least $2m.

The OCR saw the highest number of new home sales last month. Including executive condominiums, new home sales increased by 81.3% month-on-month to 1,744 units.

“The new home sales performance in July 2021 was boosted by the buzzing OCR sub-market which saw over 1,000 units being transacted. We believe that the catalyst to the exuberance was the recent GLS tender activity where Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1 and Lentor Central received top bids of $1,118 psf ppr and $1,204 psf ppr respectively from developers. The news of aggressive land prices triggered many to realize that future launch prices are likely to rise further,” said Propnex CEO Ismail Gafoor in a statement.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
