Amid a shortage in the executive condominium (EC) land supply, the land parcel at Sumang Walk received a total of 17 tenders at the close of the state tender managed by the Housing and Development Board on 30th January 2018.

On 7th March 2018,  HDB announced that the top bid came from the joint tender from City Developments Limited (“CDL”) and TID Residential Pte. Ltd. (“TIDR”) which saw off 16 other tenderers in a stiff competition. The winning bid of $509.37 million works out to be $583 per square feet per plot ratio (psf/pr) which is a record bid for HDB EC land sales.

The second placed bidder was from Qingjian Realty (Residential) Pte. Ltd. with a bid of S$486 million or S$556.26 psf ppr. The third and fourth bidders are joint tender from Yanlord Singapore Residential and Soilbuild Group Holdings at a strong bid of S$450 million for the site. Hoi Hup Realty teamed up with Sunway Developments for a S$446.6 million bid.

The breakeven cost for CDL and TIDR is estimated to be in the region of $1,000 psf and several resale transactions in Sengkang only averaged at $860 psf. This indicates that the property developers believe prices will increase by about 20% by the time the development is completed.

The winning bid at Sumang Walk is 64% higher than the top bid of $355 psf ppr for the Anchor Vale EC site sold in August 2016. Market observers attributed the lack of land supply, dwindling stock of EC units and recovery in private residential market probably contributed to the bullish bids amongst the tenders.
