In fact, you might even think that these condominiums are&#8230; gasp&#8230; HDB estates. <strong>Ironically, these condos might have the highest en bloc potential.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We say this because their low unit densities of these condos versus land area could make them attractive targets for developers eyeing an en bloc purchase in the future (some of these have had failed collective sale attempts, and one of them have been successfully sold en bloc at time of writing).<\/p>\n<p>For these featured condos, we&#8217;re not saying a collective sale will <em>surely<\/em> happen, of course. But assess them carefully and it might be worth serious consideration if you&#8217;re looking to buy a resale condo. Even without an en bloc, you get to enjoy a home that&#8217;s not only well-maintained, but also far more spacious than newer developments!<\/p>\n<h3><b>Condo with en bloc potential #1: Bedok Court<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/hdb-lookalike-condo-en-bloc-bedok-court.jpg\" alt=\"HDB lookalike condo en bloc Bedok Court\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/hdb-lookalike-condo-en-bloc-bedok-court.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/hdb-lookalike-condo-en-bloc-bedok-court-380x284.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>District:<\/strong> D16<strong><br \/>\nTenure: <\/strong>99 years<strong><br \/>\nNumber of units: <\/strong>280<strong><br \/>\nAverage PSF price (past 1 year): <\/strong>$670.40<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/condos-apartments\/bedok-court\/?utm_source=blog%20to%20portal%20condo%20project\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bedok Court<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is arguably\u00a0<em>the<\/em> most affordable condominium on this list, despite being located within walking distance of Tanah Merah MRT.
