In this Stacked Pro breakdown:
Comparison
We analysed Rivergate, a freehold development in Robertson Quay launched in 2005, and tracked its price movement from 2005 to 2024. We compared it against nearby condos in District 9, other freehold projects launched in the same period, and recent resale performance across 2-, 3-, and 4-bedroom segments.
Key Insight
Despite its age, Rivergate outpaced most peers in resale price growth from 2015 to 2024, especially in the 3- and 4-bedder segments. Even with newer projects entering the market, it continues to be a top pick for its large layouts and strong returns.
