But that\u2019s not all you should be looking into \u2013 easy access to amenities like shopping centres, schools, parks, and healthcare facilities also goes a long way in adding to the convenience and desirability of the location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, what about picking between mature and non-mature estates?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Developments situated in established, mature neighbourhoods or emerging areas with promising growth potential usually tend to perform better. The overall appeal of these neighbourhoods, including factors like safety, cleanliness, green spaces, and community facilities, can significantly impact the attractiveness of a new launch condo and even go as far as to determine its potential rental yield, making it a crucial consideration for investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/small-condo-site-plan-considerations-that-make-a-big-difference\/\">Small condo site plan considerations that make a big difference<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-developer-reputation-and-track-record\"><strong>Developer reputation and track record<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another vital factor influencing the success of a new launch condo is the reputation and track record of the developer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buyers often gravitate towards projects developed by reputable and experienced companies known for delivering quality construction and excellent after-sales service. The developer&#8217;s brand name and past successful projects can instil confidence in buyers and drive sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While larger developers often invest more in advertising, showroom quality, and online promotion, smaller boutique condos may rely heavily on property agents for marketing. This difference in marketing strategy can impact the sales performance of new launch condos, with larger developments typically enjoying better launch day results and faster sell-outs due to extensive marketing efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-pricing-and-discounts\"><strong>Pricing and discounts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Competitive pricing compared to surrounding resale condos, coupled with attractive discounts and incentives, is another crucial factor that influences the success of a new launch condo.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buyers are more inclined towards projects offering value for their money, and developers may offer discounts on less desirable units to stimulate sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-amenities-and-facilities\"><strong>Amenities and facilities<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The availability of modern amenities and facilities is a significant selling point for new launch condos.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"843\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym-544x306.jpg 544w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym-352x198.jpg 352w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym-512x288.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym-160x90.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym-256x144.jpg 256w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8-LIV-@-MB-Gym-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Artist impression of the gym at LIV@MB<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Developments offering comprehensive facilities like pools, gyms, and recreational spaces tend to attract more buyers. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/old-condo-facilities\/\">Unique or high-end amenities can also set a new launch apart from competitors and enhance its appeal in the market.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, new technology that promotes the use of smart home features may also appeal to younger eligible buyers and gives a futuristic allure to a new project. This assures buyers that their new homes would not be behind new trends.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-future-development-plans\"><strong>Future development plans<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Proximity to upcoming infrastructure projects, commercial developments, or government initiatives can significantly impact the long-term value and appeal of a new launch condo.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buyers often look for locations with promising growth potential and future enhancements that can positively influence their investment.

Understanding market cycles and launching at the right time can give new launch condos a competitive edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-case-studies-new-launches-of-the-year-and-how-they-performed\"><strong>Case Studies: New launches of the year and how they performed<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it&#8217;s not all cut-and-dry in the world of new launch condos. Sometimes, even with all the right ingredients, success isn&#8217;t guaranteed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at some recent examples to illustrate this point:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lentor-mansion-vs-lentoria\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/condos-apartments\/lentor-mansion\"><strong>Lentor Mansion<\/strong><\/a><strong> vs. <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/condos-apartments\/lentoria\"><strong>Lentoria<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These two projects, located just opposite each other and launched within a week of each other, provide an interesting case study.

In contrast, Lentoria offers 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom, and 4-bedroom layouts, with a focus on smaller units. Lentor Mansion&#8217;s emphasis on larger family-oriented layouts and open spaces resonated well with homebuyers, making it a compelling option in the neighbourhood.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, Lentor Mansion also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guocoland.com.sg\/Documents\/PressReleases\/2024\/Lentor_Mansion_introduces_Luxury_Mansion_Living_final.pdf\">featured the lowest density among all the projects launched in Lentor Hills<\/a>, providing residents with ample open spaces.

The scarcity of new launches with such large-format units only accentuated Watten House&#8217;s appeal to its target demographic of high-net-worth individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-proximity-to-turf-club-housing-developments\"><strong>Proximity to Turf Club housing developments<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Situated<a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/sale\/neighbourhoods\/turf-club\"> near the Turf Club<\/a> housing developments, Watten House benefited from offering larger units at sensible prices compared to the steep costs associated with renovating nearby <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/sale\/houses\/terrace-house\">terrace homes<\/a>.

Watten House tapped into this demand by offering luxurious, generously sized units that resonated with buyers seeking comfort and prestige.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lack-of-comparable-new-launches\"><strong>Lack of comparable new launches<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With a limited supply of new launches offering similar large-format units above 1,500 sqft, Watten House capitalised on pent-up demand in the market. Its modern amenities and newer development status also positioned it favourably against older resale condos in the area, making it an appealing choice for high-end buyers seeking a blend of luxury and convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-freehold-status\"><strong>Freehold status<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/glossary\/freehold-condominiums-in-singapore\/#:~:text=In%20the%20case%20of%20freehold,land%20that%20the%20government%20owns.\">Freehold properties<\/a>, like Watten House, are highly coveted for their legacy appeal, constituting only 34% of the total new projects across Singapore.
