Corals at Keppel Bay sold 70 units ahead of launch

Units are at most $2,100 psf.

CIMB visited Corals at Keppel Bay (99-year leasehold), a new prime residential launch by KepLand/KepCorp previewed over the weekend.

CIMB noted that as at 2pm on Sun, 19 Apr, around 70 units had been sold at the 366-unit project. Most of the buyers were locals and PRs. The project is located at Keppel Road, between Caribbean and Reflections, both developed by KepLand/KepCorp.

Around 43% of Corals is made up of 1-2 bedders (500-900sf) with the rest being 3-bedders and above (>1,100sf).

Here's more:

Footfall at the showflat was brisk with buyers attracted to its “waterfront living” concept. There appears to be still demand for prime/high-end units that are differentiated and in good locations. Mortgage rates on offer remain attractive at 1.1-1.9% on average for three years.

That said, pricing remains an issue, in our view.

Stamp-duty absorption of 13% was offered, with some cases as high as 20%. Effective prices are S$2k-2.1k psf, in line with the resale prices at Reflections.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
