More buyers snap up Geylang units priced above median market value

They think the area has high potential.

Units above the computer-generated market value are seeing greater popularity in Geylang, amid reports of the area’s rezoning.

According to a media release by SRX, Geylang posted the highest median TOX for HDB towns having more than 10 resale transactions with TOX in January 2015.

Geylang has the highest median TOX of $8,400, followed by $8,000 in Bukit Merah and Kallang/Whampoa.

"This is not the first month that Geylang has posted a positive median T-O-X," said Jeremy Lee, chief technology officer for SRX Property. "Buyers and investors are eyeing Geylang as an area with long-term potential. URA's recent announcement that it is proposing to rezone parts of Geylang confirms this positive sentiment for the area."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
