Do mega-developments like Parc Clematis perform better than regular condos in Singapore?

Based on the case study, Parc Clematis, a mega-development, shows similar or slightly better resale performance compared to Clavon, a smaller project. It matched Clavon in $PSF appreciation and resale turnover, indicating that size does not necessarily guarantee higher returns.

How does the size of a development affect its investment returns and resale gains?

The comparison between Parc Clematis and Clavon suggests that larger scale does not significantly impact long-term investment returns or resale gains. Both projects performed similarly in terms of annualized gains and price momentum, with Parc Clematis even commanding a pricing premium.

What factors influence buyer perception and demand for large-scale developments like Parc Clematis?

Buyers value lifestyle features, layout efficiency, and facilities over exclusivity. Parc Clematis's diverse unit mix, extensive facilities, and location near amenities contribute to its strong demand, despite its large size.

Are maintenance fees higher in mega-developments like Parc Clematis compared to smaller condos?

Contrary to expectations, Parc Clematis has higher maintenance fees than Clavon, possibly due to its larger and more lavish facilities. Typically, mega-developments are expected to have lower fees due to economies of scale, but this is not always the case.

How do the facilities and land area of Parc Clematis compare to those of Clavon?

Parc Clematis sits on over 58,898 sqm of land, offering extensive facilities like multiple pools, clubhouses, sports courts, and unique features such as communal kitchens. Clavon, with about 16,543 sqm, has standard amenities like pools, a gym, and landscaping, but fewer and less varied facilities.

We compared Parc Clematis (1,468 units) and Clavon (640 units) — two 99-year leasehold projects in Clementi — to assess how scale affects investment performance, resale gains, and buyer perception.

Key Insight
Clavon edged ahead in overall annualised gains (5.36% vs. 5.06%). But when measured from 2020 to 2024, Parc Clematis showed stronger price momentum, likely driven by demand for larger units and its diverse unit mix.

Why This Matters
Despite its size, Parc Clematis showed no disadvantage in resale performance. It matched Clavon in $PSF appreciation and turnover, and even commanded a pricing premium across most unit types, suggesting buyers place high value on lifestyle features, layout efficiency, and facilities over exclusivity.
