This is the priciest residential site for Q3

It is worth a hefty sum of $516.30 million.

According to Colliers International, the third quarter of 2012 saw the conclusion of the most sizeable public residential land sale so far in 2012.

Here's more from Colliers International:

A 2.4-ha condominium site on Prince Charles Crescent was clinched by a consortium formed by WingTai Holdings Limited, Metro Holdings Pte Ltd and United Engineers Limited for a hefty sum of $516.30 million.

The unit land price of $960 per sq ft per plot ratio for this 99-year leasehold condominium site outstripped the previous high achieved in the locality – Singapore Land Limited paid $881 per sq ft per plot ratio for the adjacent 99-year leasehold site on Jervois Road in February of this year.

The residential sector continued to be a standout in the quarter which ended in September with a total of $4.97 billion worth of deals accumulated from both the public and private sectors, accounting for some 44.5% of 3Q 2012’s total investment sales value and surpassing the previous quarter’s level.

Private sector sales of residential properties (including land) gained further momentum in 3Q 2012 to reach $3.04 billion, 46.2% above the $2.08 billion transacted in 2Q 2012.

Of these, some $1.18 billion was contributed by seven collective land sales. The $1.18 billion worth of residential collective deals is also a new high since some $6.53 billion worth of deals accumulated from 41 collective sales took place in 2Q 2007 when Singapore’s property market was at its peak.

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.
