May 2022 BTO Launch Review: Ultimate Guide To Choosing The Best Unit

There’s no question about it – the May 2022 BTO launch is going to be hotly contested. There will be 4,583 Build To Order (BTO) flats across five estates that will be launched – with the main draw the two projects under the Prime Location Public Housing (PLH) model in Bukit Merah and Queenstown. To round up, the other projects are in Toa Payoh, Jurong West, and Yishun.

For those who need a reminder on the PLH model, here’s a quick overview of what you need to know.

The PLH model will impose additional restrictions, on HDB flats bought in prime areas:

– 10-year MOP instead of five years

– No renting out the whole flat

– Subsidy Recovery, on top of the existing resale levy

– Tighter eligibility requirements

– Reduced number of flats set aside for MCPS

Our review is broken down by the 5 BTO sites on offer, starting with the mature estates. We share an overview of the project, the best stacks (in our opinion) as well as the pros and cons of the site and unit layouts on offer.

This has always been eagerly anticipated, so here’s our comprehensive review of the May 2022 BTO launch!

Overall Pros vs. Cons

Pros	Cons
Close proximity to CBD	Away from MRT station, highly dependent on bus services to get around
Convenient to basic amenities with a few market and food centres options	With only 385 units, expect stiff competition
Low-density development; smaller community	For families looking for bigger space, there is a lack of 5-room units
Within 1Km proximity to three Primary schools, namely, Kheng Cheng School , Pei Chun Public School and First Toa Payoh Primary School	High overall quantum

Schools

• Kheng Cheng School
• Pei Chun Public School
• First Toa Payoh Primary School

Thoughts on the site plan

• Most stacks are north-south facing
• 27 – 36 storeys high puts residents above most HDBs around
• Certain stacks faces the MSCP directly
• All stacks are furthest away from the busier Lorong 6 Toa Payoh
• 6/7 units sharing 4 lifts is very healthy
• Link bridges directly connects to the blocks which is a huge plus!
• No stacks faces each other directly
• Sheltered linkway to the bus stop

Sun Direction

Most stacks are north-south facing here. The only exception are stacks 115 and 113 which would face the morning sun for about half the year.

Overall Pros vs. Cons

Pros	Cons
Walking distance to Dual-line Buena Vista MRT station	PLH rule applies
Proximity to Holland Village for dining and entertainment option. More retail options are located at Star Vista	For families looking for bigger space, there is a lack of 5-room units.
Basic amenities located right across the street, Ghim Moh Market and Food Centre	Longer waiting time due to its high scale and tower blocks
Within 1Km proximity to a highly sought after primary school, Henry Park Primary School (Certain blocks)	High overall quantum
Appeal to nature lovers with Greenways located right next door for access to Rail Corridor	South facing stacks may face construction noise from future residential development in future. Views may be blocked too.

Schools

• Henry Park Primary School (not all blocks may be within 1km)

Thoughts on the site plan

• Few stacks are north-south facing
• Certain stacks faces MSCP directly
• Link bridge to connect only some blocks to MSCP
• Car park is a bit far for stacks closer to Gim Moh Close
• Healthy distance between blocks
• Two entrances for such a small plot is healthy
• Direct shelter to the bus stop outside
• 7/8 units sharing 3-5 lifts is healthy
• Several stacks have that million-dollar landed/greenery view

Sun Direction

Do be wary of stacks 139, 141, 153 and 155 as these face the southwest direction, resulting in direct sunlight towards the end of the year.

Overall Pros vs. Cons

Pros	Cons
Good unit mix	Quite a walk for basic amenities over at Taman Jurong Shopping centre and food centre
Affordable quantum	Away from CBD
The development comes with a Childcare centre, great for families with young children.
Nature lovers will love its proximity to Jurong lake gardens
Within 1Km proximity to four Primary Schools options, namely, Lakeside, Boon Lay Garden, Rulang and Shuqun Primary School

Schools

• Lakeside Primary School
• Boon Lay Garden Primary School
• Rulang Primary School
• Shuqun Primary School

Thoughts on the site plan

• 12 stacks here take advantage of the Jurong Lake view
• Sheltered to bus stop along Kang Ching Road
• Inner-facing stacks are too close to each other
• Link bridge connects the MSCP to blocks nearby
• Certain stacks are quite close to the opposite HDBs
• Two entrances and exits is healthy
• 3 lifts per block with 9-10 units is acceptable
• No stacks directly face west, some are north-south facing.

Sun Direction

Quite a number of stacks here have a northwest orientation. These stacks will face more afternoon sun towards the middle of the year.

Overall Pros vs. Cons

Pros	Cons
Walkable distance to Yishun MRT station	Away from the expressway and CBD, do expect heavy traffic along Yishun avenue 2 during peak hours
Walking distance to North Park City for major retail option	Located along the main road and MRT line, the development will also face traffic and above ground MRT noise.
Affordable quantum	Depending on the individual, if you are someone that is superstitious about staying right next to a hospital, this site is not for you
Within 1Km proximity to a few Primary School options, namely, Hua Min, Northland, Naval Base, Peiying and Jiemin Primary School.

Thoughts on the site plan

• Most inner stacks have a healthy distance from the opposite block but some are too close
• Some stacks directly face the MSCP
• 2 entrances healthy for development of this size
• Link bridge directly connects closest blocks
• Most stacks are north-south facing
• Some blocks have only 2 lifts sharing up to 11 units
• There are no 3-room options here

Sun Direction

Most stacks are north-south facing, however, be wary of stacks 146 and 148 which have the afternoon sun all year round.

Frequently asked questions

What are the main features of the May 2022 BTO launch in Singapore?

The May 2022 BTO launch includes 4,583 flats across five estates, with two projects under the Prime Location Public Housing (PLH) model in Bukit Merah and Queenstown, and additional projects in Toa Payoh, Jurong West, and Yishun.

How does the Prime Location Public Housing (PLH) model affect buyers?

The PLH model imposes restrictions such as a 10-year Minimum Occupation Period (MOP), no renting out the whole flat, subsidy recovery on top of resale levy, tighter eligibility, and fewer flats set aside for the Multi-Generation Priority Scheme (MCPS).

What are the price ranges for the flats in the May 2022 BTO launch?

Prices vary by estate and flat type. For example, 2-room Flexi flats in Jurong West start from $107,000 excluding grants, while 4-room flats in Bukit Merah start from $540,000 excluding grants. Prices include floor finishes, doors, and fittings.

What are some pros and cons of the Kim Keat Heights project in Toa Payoh?

Pros include proximity to CBD, amenities, and primary schools. Cons include limited 5-room units, smaller community due to low density, and dependence on bus services as it is not near MRT stations.

What are the features of the 2-room Flexi flats in Kim Keat Heights?

The 2-room Flexi flats have finishes like floor tiles, wall tiles, and optional packages for flooring, sanitary fittings, and kitchen cabinets. They are priced from $162,000 to $206,000 and include features such as sliding partitions and grab bars.
