The Urban and Development Board (URA) has sold 2 private residential sites in Canberra Drive, about 3 minutes walk to new Canberra MRT Station, as part of Government Land Sales (GLS), in 1st quarter of 2020. They are located within walking distance to Canberra MRT Station, on North-South Line, which turned operational since 2019.
Canberra, in the Northern Region of Singapore, is turning itself into a new estate and is increasing in popularity as an integrated estate. It is located between Yishun and Sembawang housing estates. The residents will benefit not only from Canberra MRT Station but also Bukit Canberra, an upcoming sports and community hub which is set to open progressively from 2020. The sites are also walking distance to both new Canberra Plaza and Sembawang Shopping Centre.
The 2 GLS sites along Canberra Drive are nestled and bounded by Jalan Sendoduk, Jalan Kemuning and new road Canberra Drive. They face the landed houses of Sembawang and are listed under the confirmed list of sites and are allocated to be developed into private condominiums.
Parcel A was sold to Oasis Development, a unit of boutique developer, JBE Holdings Group. It spans an area of 143,325 square feet and can yield about 220 housing units.
The larger Parcel B has an area of 296,721 square feet. It is sold to United Venture under UOL Group. It can yield about 455 units.
These 2 land parcels can build to a maximum of 5 storeys and are expected to launch in the range of S$1350psf.
Shall I wait further? I believe that the property prices will go down.

Singapore’s property market has one of the best long term returns on equity performance out of most investment instruments available.
And that has to do largely with the strength of the Singapore dollar, the availability of high leverage, and the attraction of Singapore to the international audience, not just as a region to invest in, but as an asset class on its own.
Before you embark on searching for your investment property, it is important to have gone through this checklist below.
We will advise about your finances to understand the initial cash/Central Provident Fund (CPF) outlay required.
Having an experienced third party do an assessment would help you prevent costly beginner mistakes that could seriously hamper your journey to financial freedom.
We will help you assess the minimum cash and CPF required for the down payment, buyer stamp duties, legal fees and miscellaneous costs, as well as advise you on an investment road map for the best acquisition strategy as you progress along and acquire more properties.
The current Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR) framework makes it especially important for investors to check on their maximum loan eligibility so that there are no nasty surprises after placing a deposit.
In this case, this should be one of your priorities early on and we will assist you on this.
For investors who already own an HDB flat or private home and are acquiring their second property, we will advise you on the various options available to optimise tax savings (which can be significant) and qualify you for more funding options.
This is especially important for those who intend to grow their portfolio of properties and would require access to higher leverage and lower costs.
Having a clear idea of your investment goal horizon helps you narrow down the segments you should focus on; saving you precious time and energy.
Examples
– Are you investing in properties to provide a consistent source of passive income?
In this case, focus on areas with low vacancy rates and a high tenant catchment pool.
– Are you investing in properties short term to ride the market trend?
In this case, are you financially prepared to hold on in case a black swan event occurs?
– Are you investing in properties with en bloc potential?
In this case, are you well advised on which properties have genuine potential?
Not all old properties have en bloc-ability.
After going through the above points, the following are factors that have served me and my clients well in the past as an investment criteria checklist.

Canberra Drive Parcel A
All four developers who pitched for GLS site at Parcel B, the larger site, also submitted bids for Parcel A. Incidentally, the top bid for Parcel A was tabled by the only developer who did not bid for Parcel B - Oasis Development, with the highest offer of nearly $129.20 million or about $644 per square foot per plot ratio (psf ppr). Oasis Development is controlled by boutique developer JBE Holdings Group and the site can yield about 220 homes.
The top bid of SGD129.2 million or SGD644 psf ppr was 3.4% higher than the next highest bidder – MCC Land and Greatview, and slightly lower than our earlier expectation of SGD670 psf.

Meanwhile, Parcel B – being a larger site – garnered slightly fewer bids of four, also in line with expectations. The top bid of SGD270.2 million or SGD650 psf ppr by United Venture Development was 4.8% higher than the next highest bidder – MCC Land and Greatview, and slightly below our earlier expectation of SGD670 psf.
For Parcel B, there is also a requirement to build an Early Childhood Development Centre1 (ECDC) for infant care and childcare services within the proposed development for a minimum of 10 years from the date of issuance of ECDC licence.
