Buy now, en bloc later: 201 freehold homes you don’t want to miss out on (Part 2)
It is now 2018, yet the en bloc train does not seem to be slowing to a halt anytime soon with projections of higher demand this year. There have been many other developments trying to kick start the collective sale process to ride on the en bloc wave. So in our en bloc series so far, we have covered part 1 of newer freehold homes that have potential en bloc in Singapore. Here is Part 2 (with part 3 in the works!)
A shortlist filtered by price, size or tenure is a useful way to narrow your options, but it won’t tell you which property is the best fit for your finances, lifestyle or long-term plans.
That’s where the real evaluation begins: comparing the trade-offs between each option to decide which one makes the most sense for your situation.
Over time, that’s also why we decided to work with agents who shared the same data-driven and advisory-led approach behind our editorial, consultants who could help readers think through decisions more objectively, rather than simply push transactions.
Today, the team has worked with more than 2,000 clients across over $5B in property transactions.
