It can take more than two years before the sale is finalised. As a result, homeowners or subsidiary proprietors may have to wait a considerable amount of time before receiving their share of the proceeds.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, developers usually pay premium prices for these properties, which can result in a substantial profit for homeowners who purchased their condos at a lower price point in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the key difference between en bloc and Standard Property Transactions?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The key difference is the scale. Standard property transactions typically involve the sale of a single property to one buyer at market value.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast, an en bloc sale in Singapore sells an entire private development at one time. This usually occurs when 80-90% of homeowners agree to the sale, often for a significantly higher price than their resale value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related article: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/what-factors-necessary-possible-en-bloc-collective-sale\/\">What factors are necessary for a possible en bloc or collective sale?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What price can property owners expect to sell their units for?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An en bloc committee sets a reserve price for the sale in general, typically at a premium over the current market value. The buyer is usually a property developer or the government.
