Third most expensive apartment sells in May

A condominium sold for $34.4m in May, the third most expensive since 1995.

The priciest apartment sold last month was a 548 sqm 20th floor apartment at Park Nova transacted for S$34.4 million or S$5,838 psf.

According to an analysis released by OrangeTee, this is the third priciest new condominium purchase based on URA caveat records from 1995.

The priciest unit was a 1,261 sqm Le Nouvel Ardmore sold for S$51 million in 2015; whilst a 717 sqm Twentyone Angullia Park condominium transacted for S$42.9 million in 2013 came in second.

The Park Nova apartment is also the third-highest price by per sq foot basis for a new condominium at S$5,838 psf, ranked behind two units at The Marq on Paterson Hill sold for S$6,650 psf and S$6,215 psf in 2011.

Based on URA Realis data, the proportion of lower quantum units below S$1.5 million rose from 41.1% in April to 46.4% in May 2021 as more mass market and city fringe new homes were sold last month.

The proportion of new homes sold for at least $3 million continued to rise from 5.5% in March, to 6.6% in April and further to 7.7% in May.

Ten units were sold for at least S$10 million, the highest monthly sales since March 2019. Nine of these units were at Park Nova and one unit from Meyerhouse.

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.
