In any case, 2018 has been a roller-coaster year for the Singapore property market. From signs of a quick revival to the shock from cooling measures, the year has been anything but predictable.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, developers have put out a handful of new launches that look very impressive, at least on paper. And when property buyers start easing back and enter the market again, hopefully soon, we can be fairly sure these five projects would sell better than the rest:<\/p>\n<p><b>Best new launch condo for exclusivity: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/s\/sale\/condos-apartments\/kent-ridge-hill-residences\/?utm_source=blog%20to%20portal%20condo%20project\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kent Ridge Hill Residences<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20360\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20360\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/new-launch-condo-kent-ridge-hill-residences.jpg\" alt=\"URA guidelines GFA Pasir Panjang\" width=\"720\" height=\"413\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20360\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">An artist&#8217;s impression of Kent Ridge Hill Residences.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>District: <\/b>5<br \/>\n<b>Tenure: <\/b>99-year leasehold<br \/>\n<b>Developer: <\/b>Oxley Spinel Pte Ltd<br \/>\n<b>No. of units: <\/b>490 + 50 strata landed<br \/>\n<b>Approx. price: <\/b>$1,700+ psf<br \/>\n<strong>Expected TOP:<\/strong> 2024<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Quiet, high-rent enclave<\/li>\n<li>Right next to nature (Kent Ridge Park)<\/li>\n<li>Potential upside from Greater Southern Waterfront project and Circle Line Extension<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This development has sold 128 units since its October 2018 launch, which represents a decent figure considering the cooling measures and tighter loan limits in place. The main appeal of Kent Ridge Hill Residences its location in a low-rise private housing cluster, right on the edge of Kent Ridge Park. Like some parts of prime District 10 in Bukit Timah, this is an exclusive location that feels like a world apart from the busier and noisier parts of Singapore.<\/p>\n<p>Another merit in its favour are its potential upsides. The nearby Pasir Panjang MRT station will connect directly to the CBD when the Circle Line extension is complete in 2025, which means that the area could become even more popular with tenants. (Currently, the location relies on Science Park, Buona Vista\/one-north, Mapletree Business City, National University of Singapore and Harbourfront to draw its tenants from.)<\/p>\n<p>In the longer term, Kent Ridge Hill Residences will also benefit from\u00a0Urban Redevelopment Authority\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.colliers.com\/en-gb\/singapore\/insights\/colliers-blog\/cmis-greater-southern-waterfront-cbd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Greater Southern Waterfront master plan<\/a>\u00a0that would transform the soon-to-be-vacated Pasir Panjang Port into an enormous seafront commercial and recreational hub.<\/p>\n<p>**[Browse <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/sale?listing_type=sale&amp;name=Kent%20Ridge%20Hill%20Residences&amp;query_coords=1.281128%2C103.789917&amp;query_type=cluster&amp;query_ids=deDNyJCdAexzmpAs2pzkaNpE&amp;zoom=15&amp;radius_max=1000&amp;query_limit=radius&amp;property_segments=residential\/?utm_source=blog%20to%20portal%20listing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">units at Kent Ridge Hill Residences for sale<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><b>Best new launch condo for amenities: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/s\/sale\/condos-apartments\/park-place-residences\/?utm_source=blog%20to%20portal%20condo%20project\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Park Place Residences<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_22061\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22061\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-22061\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/park-place-residences-best-new-launch-condos-2018.jpg\" alt=\"Park Place Residences best new launch condos 2018\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-22061\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">An artist&#8217;s impression of Park Place Residences.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>District: <\/b>14<br \/>\n<b>Tenure: <\/b>99-years<br \/>\n<b>Developer: <\/b>Lendlease<br \/>\n<b>No. of units: <\/b>429<br \/>\n<b>Approx. price: <\/b>$2,060+ psf<br \/>\n<b>Expected TOP: <\/b>2020<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Part of a major integrated development with some 200 retail and dining outlets at the doorstep<\/li>\n<li>Within 3 minutes walk to the Paya Lebar MRT station<\/li>\n<li>Good rental prospects, as it includes Grade A office space within the up-and-coming Paya Lebar Central business node<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Park Place Residences raised some eyebrows with its median price per square foot \u2013 at $2,060, it\u2019s a whopping 19.3% higher than the other new condos in the Rest of Central Region (RCR).<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s a good reason for this. First, this is a landmark integrated development within the Paya Lebar Quarter. Amenities will include some 200 retail and dining outlets.

But what really stood out was the number of primary schools that are within 1km of the new launch: three in total! And the schools in question, namely\u00a0CHIJ Our Lady of the Nativity, Holy Innocents\u2019 Primary School and Punggol Primary School are reputable as well.<\/p>\n<p>We looked at other new launches this year, and none of them can boast having this many primary schools within the all-important 1km radius number.<\/p>\n<p>Especially considering the affordable price point, this new launch condo could well appeal to newlyweds who intend to start a family, or those who intend to have more children (or perhaps even live with their parents). After all, one of Riverfront Residences&#8217; selling points is its location right next to the tranquil Serangoon River, which looks an ideal place for three generations to bond. The Punggol Waterway is also accessible via park connector, too.<\/p>\n<p><em>How affordable is this new launch really?<\/em> Well, two-bedroom units here are from $750,000 onwards, whereas 3-bedders is just over a million, from $1,070,000 onwards.

But we at 99.co like to crunch the numbers as to what exactly make a new launch tick, appearance aside.<\/p>\n<p>And good news for buyers who find themselves regularly shuttling to and fro various locations in Singapore: JadeScape is one of the rare condos where a trip to ANY part of Singapore would take LESS than 30 minutes (given smooth traffic conditions). Changi Airport, the CBD, Woodlands \u2014 even Tuas.<\/p>\n<p>You see, few condos are as centrally-located, in a literal sense, as JadeScape. Motorists not only have easy access to the CTE and PIE, they&#8217;ll stand to benefit from having a third expressway, the North-South Corridor, close by. Not only will this give drivers a direct route to the CBD, JadeScape residents need not worry about noise because although the expressway runs alongside the condo, it&#8217;s fully underground.<\/p>\n<p>For those without a car, JadeScape is also within a three-minute walk to Marymount MRT on the Circle Line. Fact: the Circle Line is the only MRT line in Singapore that connects to every other MRT line in Singapore at least <em>twice<\/em>.
