Real estate investing has always been a popular investment for Singaporeans. Our nation has one of the highest homeownership ratings with close to 90% of residents owning a property . So I guess Singaporeans love property investing.😅 Should You Learn Property Investing The issue with property investing is, not everyone knows how to grow wealth with real estate. Yes, almost every property in Singapore is “sure to make money”. That is if you hold for over 30 years and let inflation do its thing. Over the years, we found that the best way for asset progression is knowing how to pick properties with high growth potential that won’t burn a hole in your pocket. In this case for Parc Clematis, that’s what we did! We Bought Parc Clematis! In 2019, after extensive research, we felt financially confident in making one of the biggest purchases of our life. We are HDB Upgraders Here’s a little backstory about us. Before becoming real estate agents, we both worked as engineers. At that time, we had been living in a 5-room flat in Boon Lay for over 10 years. As an active saver, we thought we finally had enough savings to finally move to a private condo. We didn’t like the idea of investing in stocks and bonds, instead, we like to own tangible assets. That’s why we knew if we wanted to grow our investment, property investing was the best way for us to get to. During that time, we went to a roadshow and an agent brought us to the show flat to help us look into finding a private condo for us. Sadly, the agent’s instructions weren’t clear and we ended up not getting the property. That’s when we told ourselves that if we wanted to get financial results, it was best to do it ourselves. We got our real estate license in 2018 and looked into property investing ourselves. Looking back, we realize we actually had the financial capacity to have started property investing earlier. If only a reliable agent could bring us through the process clearly of property investing… That’s why we became property agents. Why Parc Clematis? We have always liked living in Clementi, using our 7-step framework to find high-growth investment, we decided that Parc Clematis ticks all our checkboxes as young parents. Here are the considerations we looked into before buying: 1) Pricing First and foremost before we look into property investing, we must first find our most comfortable budget to set aside for property investing. Is it affordable to us? Is the price justifiable? Is there a better buy elsewhere in a better location? Entering a property at the right price is crucial for future returns. Pay too much and you would earn less. To find a reasonable amount that we should be paying for our condo, we compared Parc Clematis to other recently launched condos around the area. 2) Future Potential Will new launches around the area make Parc Clematis less desirable? Often times when we look into property investing, one of our main considerations is whether there is limited supply and high demand for property projects. It’s an indicator of future potential for an exit strategy. 3) Distance to MRT These days, although Singapore is well-interconnected. There are still places that are generally more accessible thanks to public transportation. And having homes near the MRT is a way to commute around. 4) Convenience When we are looking for a property, the first criterion we look at is what it has to offer within the vicinity. Things we look out for are: Shopping malls Food stalls (preferably some well-known brand) Amenities Transportation Schools The level of convenience in these areas is a crucial factor in our exit strategy in the future. Future buyers looking to buy resale properties tend to focus more on convenience first before anything else. Looking at Google Maps, it's always a great sign to see arrows directing to malls, schools, train stations, food stalls, and sports facilities. 5) Wide Array of Facilities Parc Clematis has over 33 facilities to boast. It’s a lot! The condo uses 60% of its 400,000 sqft of land dedicated to open space even with 1,468 units. This helps residents to have more room to enjoy the facilities and spacious to walk around the vicinity of the condo. One of its USPs (unique selling point) I love about this condo is the sand color tiles that gradually blend with the blue tiles to form a “beach-like” experience. This gives a more relaxed feel to the condo making it stand out from the rest. Just look at the artist's impression of the beach-like view, doesn’t it look amazing? Schools Everywhere Clementi is known as an education hub catering to education ranging from primary schools to tertiary education. For parents looking to send their kids to a good primary school. Clementi has the famous elite school Nan Hua Primary School which is highly sought-after. In an earlier article, we covered why parents are willing to pay more for good schools in Singapore. Apart from meeting the 1km distance eligibility for Primary schools , being near any schools in Singapore helps parent feel reassured that their kids are closer to home. Past Resale Transaction Within The Area After TOP If you are looking for capital appreciation from your property investment, looking at past resale transactions of condo facilities around the region plays a significant. With a limited supply of private properties in Clementi and being a more affordable option in central west Singapore, naturally there is a higher demand in the area. Here’s a look at the recent price transacted for a condo in Clementi: This shows that over the last few years, the price around Clementi has risen tremendously over the last few years and we can still expect further growth in the future. Was It Worth It? It was a scary rollercoaster ride. When we first bought Parc Clematis back in 2019, we paid over $1.4 million for the 3 bedder. At that time, you can get a larger 3 bedroom at Hillview for slightly above $ 1 million. When the pandemic happened, we thought this was it . Our investment is going down the drain and we never know how we can recoup our income as agents. Thankfully at that time, we were financially confident of our investment and our saying as agents to new home home buyers is: Will you lose your home if you lose your job? Surprisingly, the market went bullish for the subsequent part of the next 2 years. While everyone was shocked by the hype of property investing, we were just thankful that we stuck to our conviction of owning this property. Did we Make Money? Based on past transaction of 3 bedder, our expected gains of Parc Clematis is sitting at over $300,000 in profits! Parc Clematis is nearly reaching its TOP and many buyers have placed their property on the open market. So far, there hasn’t been an unprofitable transaction on EdgeProp.😁 Common Concerns for HDB Upgraders Should we upgrade? HDB upgraders all would like to live better lives, where else is better than living in a private condo where you are given an array of facilities to enjoy yourself? Apart from that, private condos have a higher capital appreciation as compared to HDBs. With the capital appreciation from your home, you can choose to decouple and buy a second property. HDB upgraders tend to look at property investing in two ways; improving standard of living and increasing capital appreciation. If you would like that, here are some pointers to take note of: Cost Definitely, when it comes to upgrading to a condo, the cost of ownership is higher, and having to pay for monthly maintenance could mean taking a cut away from your monthly salary. To live comfortably even after paying for your property, buyers need to learn how to set aside a portion of their income. To be stress-free when upgrading to a private property, always know your holding power and it should ideally be able to hold for a minimum of 3 years. With our PFD method, we help our clients upgrade to private properties without touching their savings and changing their lifestyles. I’m Comfortable, Why Should I Upgrade? Not everyone likes the idea of upgrading their home every 5 to 10 years. But if you are someone looking to earn more capital gains or make passive income through rental, getting a private condo is a strategic move. Only through private housing, Singaporeans can leverage the technique of the “sell 1 buy 2” strategy to own two residential units. One for own-stay, the other to rent out.

Choosing the right luxury condo means taking a lot of considerations into account. There is a lot to think about, from location and features to price and ways to pay for it. The key issue we notice for first-time buyers looking to buy executive condos is how complicated the process is. Buying an executive condo isn't as simple as walking into the showroom and picking the property you would like to get. Checklist You Need Before Buying an Executive Condo Whether you're a first-time buyer or an owner with a lot of experience, this article will give you useful information to help you make a smart choice. So, let's get started and talk about the most important things you should keep in mind as you look for your perfect executive home. 1] Location, Location, Location It matters for everything! The site of an executive condo is one of the most important factors in deciding how desirable and convenient it will be. No matter how great the layout and sizing of the property may be, the key consideration of a property will always be how great the location is. Think about the following things: Why it's Important for Parents to Choose the Right Location When it comes to signing up our kids for primary school during the P1 Registration time every year, Singaporeans are known for being very kiasu. Parents would always want their kids to get into the best schools, schools in Singapore prioritize based on: Singaporean Citizens (SCs) living within 1km of the school SCs living between 1km and 2km of the school SCs living further than 2km from the school Permanent Residents (PRs)* living within 1km of the school PRs living between 1km and 2km of the school PRs living further than 2km from the school To increase the odds of getting into a prestigious school, parents are more likely to spend more on their kids' education. For Working Adults If you don’t wish to drive, having accessible transportation means being able to travel less to get to work and also more time to enjoy being at home. This is probably the major plus point that buyers are looking for. According to EdgeProp, properties near MRT are able to command a 15% premium as compared to similar properties that might be further away. So if the extra 5 to 10 min walk is not for you, then investing slightly more for a property is the right choice for you! For Retiree For those looking for retirement, having an abundance of amenities is a major plus for them. Having amenities such as healthcare services and a community center to participate in could be something to look out for. 2] Amenities The “extras” that come with an executive condominium can make your life a lot better. Keep an eye out for the following: Condos features Many executive condos have a variety of amenities, like swimming pools, gyms, tennis court, party rooms, and BBQ pits. These features can help you relax, meet new people, and stay active without leaving the comfort of your own house. Recreational Spaces Think about how close parks, jogging paths, and green areas are. Being close to these recreational places can give you the chance to do things outside and get closer to nature. Places to visit nearby Check to see if there are any popular tourist spots, cultural sites, or places to have fun near the executive home. Living near these places can make your life more exciting and full of life. 3] Community Different communities have different vibes and serve different kinds of people. Some might be good for families because they have schools and parks, while others might have a more active nighttime and entertainment scene. Picking a place to stay has a level of "vibe" in it. If it suits you, then great! 4] Growth Potential Of course if you are investing in a property, you want to make money right? Executive condominiums (ECs) are very popular with HDB upgraders because they are affordable and can be a good investment. Even though new ECs are set up and decorated just like private homes, they cost about 20–30% less than private condos . After 10 years of TOP(temporary occupation period), executive condos are treated as private properties. This means that foreigners are eligible to buy, making the demand for executive condominiums even higher. 5] Eligibility While the idea of getting an EC may seem like the best deal in the market for most. Sadly, it is not for everyone.😥 Given how profitable an EC can be, it does have a number of measures need to be taken to apply for the property. If you would like to apply for an EC, be sure to check out our article on “ How to Check if You are Eligible for an Executive Condo ”. Picking What’s Best for You To choose the right luxury condo, you need to think carefully about a number of important factors. You'll be able to make a good choice if you look at the location, amenities, price, financing options, and other important factors that are covered in this guide. Remember to do thorough research, visit showrooms, and talk to real estate professionals to find the executive condo that fits your wants and preferences. Start looking for your dream executive apartment right away. Can I buy an executive condo with money from my CPF? Yes, you can use the money you've saved in your CPF (Central Provident Fund) to buy an executive condo. After booking an EC unit, you must submit the completed application form to use your CPF savings to the CPF Board for processing. This is so that you can use your CPF savings or the CPF Housing Grant, or both, for the payment of your EC unit. Can I make changes to my room in an executive condo? Yes, you can renovate your executive condo home. But there are rules and limits that must be followed. Before you start any renovations, you should check with the condo manager and read the rules for renovations. How can I figure out if an executive condo will be worth selling? To figure out if an executive condo will sell, look at things like its position, how much demand there is in the market, and how prices have changed in the past. Hiring a real estate agent who knows a lot about executive condos can be helpful.🫡

As of the latest government guidelines, the income ceiling for EC(executive condominiums) is set at $16,000 per month for households .

From excellent healthcare to a world-class education system, Singapore has consistently been ranked as one of the best places to live in the world. However, when it comes to choosing a specific neighborhood to call home, it can be overwhelming to navigate the different options available. While many foreigners agree that they love the East Side's more active lifestyle. Living in the West in Singapore also has a lot of untapped adventures and popular food stalls that are not widely shared on the Internet. In this article, I would like to dive deep into the potential of what the West has to offer. Breaking down whether you should or shouldn’t consider staying in the West . Life of Living in the West in Singapore Singapore is divided into 5 regions: Central, East, North, North-East, and West. Each region has its own unique feel and offers different advantages and disadvantages. The Central region is the most expensive and highly sought-after area, while the East is popular among expats due to its proximity to the airport. The North and North-East regions are quieter and more family-oriented, while the West offers a great balance between convenience and affordability. West is Best When it comes to ranking the best places to live in Singapore, it really depends on your personal preferences and needs. If you're looking for a convenient and central location, the Central region is the way to go. However, if you're looking for a more affordable option, the West is a great choice! Cost of Living in the West Compared to Other Parts of Singapore As mentioned earlier, the cost of living in Singapore is relatively high compared to other cities in Southeast Asia. However, the West is generally more affordable than other regions in Singapore. Housing prices in Jurong East and Jurong are more reasonable than those in the Central region, making it a great option for those on a budget. Amenities and Attractions in the West There has been much construction going on in the West, especially in the heart of it; Jurong East. The development and expansion of more shopping districts in Jurong have led to an increase in the value of property prices around the area. There are currently four different shopping malls interconnected to each other. They are IMM, JEM, West Gate, and Jcube. Public Transportation in the West - MRT and Bus Routes Singapore has an efficient public transportation system, and the West is well-connected to the rest of the city via the MRT and bus routes. Jurong East is a major transportation hub, with multiple MRT lines and bus routes passing through the area. This makes it easy to get around the city without a car. Healthcare and Education in the West Singapore has an excellent healthcare system, and there are many hospitals and clinics located in the West. The National University Hospital is located in Clementi and is one of the top hospitals in the country. Additionally, there are many schools in the area, including the prestigious Nanyang Technological University.

That’s why having private property in this area is considered a flex. 1. Accessibility to MRT Stations and Major Expressways For those who prefer to drive, the development is conveniently located near PIE(Pan-Island Expressway), which stretches across Singapore and connects to various areas, such as Jurong East, Toa Payoh, Bedok, and Changi Airport. This expressway is one of Singapore's most important transportation arteries, seamlessly connecting residents to different island corners. If you would like to take the public transport, you do have to take the bus 991 to get from place to place. Here are the 3 MRT stations that you can travel to: 2. Proximity to a Wide Range of Amenities When it comes to property investing, a crucial lookout point Close proximity to a multitude of amenities, catering to the needs of residents. The nearby shopping centers currently available would include Le Quest Mall which is within 5 minutes walking distance. These malls offer a diverse range of retail options, allowing residents to easily access daily necessities and enjoy shopping and dining experiences. If you are a golfer, lucky you!

The development is surrounded by nature and greenery, offering stunning views of nearby Bukit Batok Hillside Nature Park.

The upcoming Tengah Town development, which will be fully developed in 2027, will also incorporate dedicated spaces for farming and gardening, further enhancing the green living experience for residents. 4. Close Proximity to Renowned Schools and Educational Institutions There is no shortfall of schools to choose from in this area!

Moreover, the upcoming Anglo-Chinese School, scheduled to open in 2030, will be within 1 km of the development, further adding to the appeal for families seeking quality education for their children. 5. The Deferred Payment Scheme: A Convenient Financial Option Eligible buyers can opt for Deferred Payment Scheme (DPS), allowing them to manage their mortgage payments more effectively. Under this scheme, buyers only need to pay for their property upon its completion, alleviating the financial burden of having to pay for both their HDB and EC simultaneously. This option is particularly popular among buyers with existing HDB loans who wish to upgrade to an executive condominium without additional financial strain. If you are interested to know more about the property market or want to work with somebody, be sure to reach out to me! 6. Potential for Capital Appreciation and High Rental Yields The development of Tengah Town and the Jurong Lake District and the construction of new MRT stations is expected to boost property values in the vicinity. As the surrounding areas become more developed and attractive, property prices in Bukit Batok may rise, providing a potential capital appreciation for property owners. With the increased demand for properties in the area due to improved connectivity and amenities, property owners may also enjoy higher rental yields as more people seek to rent properties in the vicinity. Right now, Jurong district is pricing in at $2,000 psft and is only pricing at $1,300 psft. This amount is considered a steal if you were to consider the future development around the West region. If you aren't familiar, the Jurong Lake District will be further revamped to increase its capacity for residential and commercial use. Take note that the Lakegarden Residence itself is already selling for over $2,000psf. Therefore, the expected psf around the area is most definitely going to increase over the next few years. 7. Developer Renowned for EC Developed by Qingjian Realty Pte Ltd, has an estimated site area of 12,449.3 sqm and is expected to yield approximately 360 residential units. You can check out their website by clicking the link here. It's also good to know that QingJian Realty Pte Ltd has also developed multiple ECs and condo projects all around Singapore. Many of their property such as the most recent transaction of Le Quest which is directly 2 blocks away has done well. Since MOP in 2020, Le Quest has seen a spike in earnings with its pricing jumping 6% from 1,535psft to 1,626psft in 3 years. The condominium has a healthy amount of transaction of 25 for its 3 bedder and almost all investor has earned from their property investment. Therefore, it would be surprising to see another win for the developer.😊 8. Ideal for First-Time Homebuyers With its excellent location, comprehensive facilities, and potential for capital appreciation, this project is an ideal choice for first-time homebuyers. The development offers a unique combination of accessibility, amenities, and green living, making it a perfect blend of all the essential elements for a modern and comfortable lifestyle. Moreover, the availability of the Deferred Payment Scheme allows eligible buyers to manage their financial commitments more effectively, making it an attractive option for buyers who can only pay at a later date. 9. Peaceful and Low Noise Area Investors often underestimate the significance of knowing the location of main roads. When it comes to this project, there are only a couple of two-lane roads intersecting the area, and they are conveniently situated away from major roads with heavy traffic, thus ensuring a pleasant and pollution-free environment. 10. Family Orientated If you plan to invest in this property, you will most likely have a group of family-friendly people around who can support each other as a community.

Comparing Freehold vs. leasehold Properties in Singapore Therefore, among the things to know while considering Singapore's property investment, the difference between freehold properties and leasehold properties is very necessary. Both have considerations and advantages so that they may either affect long-term satisfaction or influence investment returns. Emphasis on Luxury and Waterfront Views The freehold properties are valued for their permanence since ownership never expires. This injects a sense of long-term security and also the possibility for property value appreciation over some time. On the other hand, leasehold properties usually have either a 99 or 999-year lease and come into the market cheaper, but they always lose their residual value as the lease ages, especially when the remaining lease gets short. Impact on Property Value and Investment Potential Freehold properties, therefore, often bear a higher market value because they experience an indefinite tenure. This makes the type of tenure very attractive for potential investors looking for properties that hold value and allow potential capital appreciation. With this, leasehold properties are cheap and have to be taken into careful insight about the lease term, which can make a big difference in resale value. Decision-Making for Buyers The choice between freehold condos and leasehold properties is a matter of individual choice, suitable to the financial goals, investment horizon, and personal circumstances of each. At the same time, freehold homes may appeal to families who prefer the added security of knowing their home could be passed on to future generations. With that, investors can compare the cost savings in the initial investment in leasehold properties with the potential gain, in the long run, should they decide to go for freeholding.

Executive Condo, or ECs, are a unique and increasingly popular housing option in Singapore. To put it simply, ECs are an affordable middle ground between public Housing and Development Board (HDB) flats and fully private condominiums. Catering to the rising aspirations of Singaporeans who desire private property but may find private condominiums too expensive, that's the reason why EC are gaining traction in the market. They are well-known as the “best investment property for Singaporeans”. Why Get an EC? If you are looking for more privacy while also not burning a hole in your wallet, ECs are basically the opportunity for Singaporeans to look into. The Singapore government subsidizes the price of ECs and allows the use of certain CPF housing grants, making them more affordable for the average Singaporean. ECs are primarily targeted at households who earn between 16,000 per month, with an income ceiling of $16,000. Why are they different from Private Properties? EC are considered HDB properties for the first 10 years. Therefore, they are governed by certain HDB rules, similar to HDB flats. These rules include a 5-year Minimum Occupation Period (MOP) before the property can be sold or rented out, an income ceiling of $16,000 per month, and restrictions on property ownership within the last 30 months. Why are they more Affordable? ECs are generally more affordable than private condominiums due to their subsidized land prices and less accessible locations, often situated further away from existing MRT stations and malls. They are typically located in the Outside Central Region (OCR) and are about 25% to 30% cheaper than similar private condominiums at launch . While that may seem like a negative point about owning an EC, many investors typically don’t mind that since they are looking for a more peaceful environment. Eligibility & Rules for Buying an EC The rules for buying any EC are a lot stricter since it’s more premium than owning an HDB. To purchase an EC, potential buyers must meet certain eligibility requirements. These include: Citizenship : At least one applicant must be a Singapore Citizen, while the other applicants can be Singapore Citizens or Singapore Permanent Residents. Age : Applicants must be at least 21 years old. Family Nucleus: Applicants must form a family nucleus, either as a family, a couple, or a single person. Income Ceiling : The combined gross monthly household income of the applicants must not exceed $16,000. Property Ownership : Applicants must not own or have disposed of any property in Singapore or overseas within the last 30 months and must not have bought an EC, HDB, or DBSS flat or received housing grants before applying for an EC. Since ECs are considered more exclusive, it is harder to get also for couples since the price of an EC can be a lot steeper. Financing an EC When buying an EC, buyers must consider the various financing options and restrictions that apply. Bank Loans Only While ECs are considered HDB properties in the first decade, they can only be financed through a bank loan. This means that the Loan-to-Value (LTV) limit, or the maximum amount that can be borrowed, is capped at 75% of the property price. Downpayment With a bank loan, EC buyers are required to pay the remaining 25% as a down payment, with 5% being paid in cash and the other 20% being paid using CPF Ordinary Account savings or cash. Debt Servicing Ratios For EC purchases, both the Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR) and Mortgage Servicing Ratio (MSR) apply. The TDSR limits the amount of income used to pay for all debts, while the MSR caps the proportion of monthly income used for mortgage repayments at 30% . CPF Housing Grants for EC EC buyers may be eligible for CPF housing grants , such as the Family Grant and the Half-Housing Grant. However, the applicant's monthly gross income must not exceed $12,000 to qualify. The amount of grant received also depends on the applicant's citizenship and income range. How Much Does an EC Cost? With the rise of inflation and property marketing expanding, the cost of a 1 bedder ECs starts at 1.2 million whereas a 1 bedroom HDB can cost from $150,000 up to $400,000. While the cost may greatly differ, many young Singaporeans still prefer to own a 1 bedder ECs since it offers many amenities and the opportunity to own a condominium. How Much Do You Need to Earn to Buy an EC? To afford an EC, potential buyers must consider their income, debt servicing ratios, and available financing options. In general, it is possible to afford an EC with a monthly income below $10,000, especially if the buyer chooses a smaller unit in a more budget-friendly area. Application Process for EC The application process for ECs involves the following steps: Check eligibility and financing options. Research and shortlist EC projects based on location, budget, and preferences. Submit an application for the desired EC project, along with the necessary documents and application fee. If successful, book the desired unit and pay the down payment. Secure a bank loan and finalize the purchase agreement. Complete the legal and financial procedures, including payment of Buyer's Stamp Duty and other taxes. Collect the keys and move them into the EC. Second-Timer Considerations: HDB Resale Levy Second-timers who have previously purchased an HDB flat and are upgrading to an EC must take into account the HDB resale levy. The resale levy is payable when a buyer sells a subsidized home and buys another subsidized flat or EC. The amount to be paid depends on the previous housing type. Our Take EC offer an attractive and affordable housing option for Singaporeans who desire private property but find private condominiums too expensive. With a range of projects available and various financing options, ECs provide a viable alternative for those looking to upgrade their homes. By understanding the eligibility requirements, financing options, and application process, potential buyers can make informed decisions and find the perfect EC to suit their needs and preferences.

SCs living outside 2km of the school. Permanent Residents (PR) living within 1km of the school. PRs living between 1km and 2km of from school. PRs living outside 2km of the school.

Clementi Central Located at the heart of the town, with an abundance of amenities and services nearby. It features a bustling shopping mall, Clementi Mall, which offers a range of dining, retail, and entertainment options. This area is perfect for those looking for convenience and a vibrant lifestyle. For investors, properties here tend to appreciate well due to the strategic location and comprehensive facilities. We have seen all over the news the high valuation of houses around the area, with multiple 5-bedroom HDBs going for over $1 million . What's more, with the new and upcoming CRL (Cross Island Line) coming in 2032, residents within the Clementi area would get to enjoy better travel convenience to the East side of Singapore. 2. Sunset Way (North) Sunset Way is a serene residential enclave that appeals to those who prefer a quieter and more tranquil living environment. Surrounded by lush greenery, this neighborhood is ideal for families and individuals seeking a peaceful atmosphere. Properties like Pinetree Hill Residence which launched in July 2023 encompasses a 75% greenery area to 25% residential area. The property faces the Clementi forest, making the area much cooler than other parts of Clementi. Sunset Way is adjacent to Holland, which falls under the core central region (CCR). This allows buyers to potentially benefit from the increase in property values in Holland Village without paying CCR property prices. While it may not have the same level of commercial amenities as Clementi Central, its exclusivity and charm make it an attractive option for both own-stay and investment. With a new Maju Cross Island MRT Line coming in 2032, we may see more capital appreciation within the area. 3. West Coast (South) West Coast is a subzone located in the town of Clementi . The area is considered the South of the Clementi region that is right beside the seaside. Over the last few years, we have seen multiple properties being built within the area such as Clavon and The Clement Canopy . When it comes to more affordable landed housing, many buyers prefer buying the landed area within this region for its affordability, land size, and tranquillity . As long as you have a vehicle to travel around with, this location has a direct straight drive down towards Vivocity and Sentosa. With the new upcoming West Coast Cross Island Line(CRL), accessing this location in the future wouldn’t be much of an issue. Clementi – Invest or Own-Stay? Given how much capital appreciation Clementi has raised over the last few years, it's no surprise this location is also closely monitored by investors. For parents looking to send their kids to an elite school without having to pay for a landed property like the Bukit Timah area, Clementi Central is something for you to look at. Here’s our research that shows the transaction data of a 10-year period for properties that are within a 1km radius of Nan Hua Primary School. While buying a D5 Clementi property may be expensive, we can still expect further growth around the area . Every parent wants the best for their children, and paying an extra 15%~30% more for a property is reasonable when you look ahead decades later where all your children's education can be found within the area.
