<\/div>\r\n

During its launch weekend, Grand Dunman<\/a> sold about 550 out of 1,008 units. With a take-up rate of over 54%, the development is the best-selling new launch<\/a> project in over 2.5 years in terms of the number of units sold. The record was previously held by Normanton Park<\/a>, which sold 600 units during its launch weekend in January 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Grand Dunman\u2019s sales volume is also the highest this year; it surpassed The Reserve Residences<\/a>, which sold 520 units at its launch in May.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We analysed why Grand Dunman sold more than 50% of its units and why prospective homeowners and investors found it a good buy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Proximity to an MRT station<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The first reason is probably the most obvious; Grand Dunman is just a 2-minute walk from Dakota MRT station<\/a>. As Singapore moves towards a car-lite society and the MRT network expands further, living near an MRT station is important for buyers, whether it\u2019s investors or owner-occupiers.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Dakota MRT is just four stops to Promenade, five to Bayfront and six to Marina Bay. Hence, it would take around 10 minutes to travel to the city centre via MRT.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If we look at other projects which performed well this year, they are also close to or are linked to an MRT station:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
