Real Estate Offers: Round 2

Oasis at Elias "Resort Homes" will be completed 31 December 2015.

A few weeks ago I posted photographs of urgent and unbelievable buying opportunities that have been added to the Passengers' mailbox.  Another batch arrived last week. Don't delay; act now on these once-in-a-lifetime deals.

The above flyer (front & back) details an enticing property on the northeast coast of Singapore, quite far from the city center.  That's okay because Oasis @ Elias will be like having your home in a resort community "with the beach and nature parks nearby."  The advertised asking prices start at S$640/sq ft for a 99-year leasehold from March 2008.  That means S$700,000 (about USD 530,000/GBP 334,000) for a two-bedroom flat surrounded by existing HDB towers.  The development will not be ready until 31 December 2015; only 91 years left to enjoy your purchase.

Far East Organization wanted us to come to brunch at The Greenwich Sales Gallery

The Greenwich is advertising phase two of their low-rise condominium project in Seletar in the northern interior of Singapore.  The development by local heavyweights Far East Organization includes a nearby retail space called Greenwich V, "planned to be a chic, modern and green 'village' that will capture the vibrancy of its namesake in New York."  Perhaps they should be reminded that homosexuality remains illegal in Singapore.  FEO claims phase one "was fully sold within a few days."  They also list three-bedroom units at S$1.35 million (USD 1.02m/GBP 664,500) or S$1,174/sq ft.  Hurry up because one-bedroom units for only S4825,000 should be ready by 31 December 2018 with 90 years remaining on the leasehold.

Come to the St Regis hotel this weekend for a "Singapore Exclusive Exhibition" of Battersea Reach.

Finally, a seemingly much more affordable London property in a new south-of-the-Thames developmen called Battersea Reach on the front and Spinnaker House on the back.  None of those details matter because units start at only GBP 299,995 (SGD 628,000/USD 476,000) for a 999-year lease.  Jone Lang LaSalle do not give a completion date, but I'm sure all that information will be available to buyer who come to the St Regis hotel this weekend to buy sight unseen a pied a terre in London.
