The Westcom sells 87.5% of units within 3 days

Buyers were overwhelmingly Singaporeans.

In a release, Far East Organization announced that it has launched The Westcom this week with a successful sales take-up of 63 units out of the 72 units released in three days.

Of this, 43 were factory units and 20 were warehouse units. 90% of the buyers were Singaporeans.

Located along Tuas South Avenue 3, the six-storey Business 2 (B2) ramp-up industrial development boasts 144 warehouse and factory units. Prices for the 42-year leasehold development start at $ 1,148,000 for a 3,068 sq ft warehouse unit and $ 955,000 for a 3,079 sq ft factory unit.

"The positive response to The Westcom follows the success of Westlink One, Westlink Two and Tradelink Place within the Tuas South industrial estate. These three sold-out industrial projects underscore the strong demand for industrial space in this area with Tuas being the next growth area designated by the government for B2 industries," said Far East Organization.

The property firm added that the highly-anticipated 7.5 km Tuas West Extension will add to the accessibility of the area.

"This will feature four new above ground MRT stations – Gul Circle, Tuas Crescent, Tuas West Road and Tuas Link – to the East-West Line. Once completed in 2016, commuters working in the Jurong and Tuas industrial estates may expect to save travelling times of up to 35 minutes. A new 4 km dual 3-lane road viaduct along Pioneer road to Tuas South Avenue 3, integrated with the rail viaduct, will also facilitate smoother traffic in the area," it added.

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.
