BlackRock, the New York Stock Exchangelisted and the world's largest asset manager,
has appointed CBRE and Jones Lang LaSalle
as agents to find a buyer for AXA Tower at 8
Shenton Way. This shows the group's serious
intention to sell the landmark circular building
opposite International Plaza and Tanjong
Pagar MRT Station. The price is expected to
be at least $2,000 psf based on the existing
net lettable area (NLA) of 674,000 sq ft, which
would amount to $1.35 billion in total.

per square foot this translates to a sellthrough ratio of around 80% of the units
launched and 60% of the entire project. Most
of the units sold were small one- and twobedroom units, with the average price of a
one-bedroom units around $750,000 while
that of a two-bedroom units being $933,000.
The developers, CapitaLand and Mitsubishi
Estate Asia, managed to keep the total cost
of the units under the magical $1 million (and
thus appeal to mass market investors and
upgraders) by shrinking the size of the units.
One-bedroom units ranged in size from 484
to 592 square feet, versus next door Sky
Habitats 635 to 958 square feet for onebedroom units. Sky Vues two-bedroom units
ranged from 678 to 915 square feet in size
versus the 721 to 1485 square feet of Sky

Caveat Emptor
For buyers, I would caution you to see the
actual property before making any purchase
decision.
Properties
are
no
longer
comparable just by looking at the number of
bedrooms, or even the Gross Floor Area. A
three-bedroom apartment can range from
less than 1,000 square feet to close to 2,000
square feet. The mix of bay windows,
balconies, air-con ledges and PES space in a
unit could drastically alter how big two
different properties feel and the useable
area, even if they are of the same size.
For people who buy properties after looking at
an ingeniously-designed show flat or off the
plan, well, good luck.

You
can
become
wealthy
through
investments, but you might not become rich or
a millionaire. Theres a huge difference in
those terms. Becoming wealthy means being
financially free without having to work (if you
dont want to) as you have other recurring
income sources. And in property, it means
recurring net income after all debts and
expenses.
You dont need a large number of properties
to become wealthy. All you ever need as an
ordinary investor is learn to acquire one or two
really good quality properties that will put
money in your pocket every month and help
pay off your home mortgage and daily
expenses.

Shophouse deals slow, but with steady
prices
Since the TDSR framework introduced in late
June, the volume of shophouse transactions
has slowed but their prices apparently are
holding up. According to Savills Singapores
analysis of URA Realis caveats data on Sept
9, the number of caveats lodged for
shophouses decreased from 34 in May to 22
in June to 11 in July and only 10 in August,
although more caveats for Augusts
transactions are expected in the next few
weeks. The 21 caveats for July and August
added up to $122.4 million. In Q2 of 2013,
there were 74 caveats lodged totaling $449.5
million. For the first eight months of 2013,
transactions reached $1.04 billion, while it
was $1.38 billion for 2012 and $1.15 billion for
2011.

New HDB Rules Create Anomaly Cannot Buy HDB But Can Finance Condo?
By Paul Ho (guest contributor)
Under the HDBs new rules issued on 27th
Aug 2013 and effective on 28th Aug 2013,
Singapore Permanent residents will need to
wait three years before they can purchase a
HDB flat. This is welcome news for most
young Singaporean couples as less
competition will mean more stable prices, but
the specifics of the rules can create an
anomalous situation where a young couple
finds they cannot finance an HDB flat but are
able to finance a private condominium.
HDBs Monthly Servicing Ratio capped at
30% and loan tenure at 25 years
In line with the governments aim to impose
financial prudence, the monthly servicing ratio

exceptions).
The TSDR is defined as:
Total monthly debt obligations / Gross
monthly income
The MAS has set the TSDR threshold at
60%, with the potential of lowering it in the
future, and considers any property loan made
that is in excess of a 60% TDSR to be
imprudent, and should only be done so in
exceptional circumstances. The FI will have
to jump through some hoops (e.g. get
approval from its credit committee) to make
property loans in excess of the 60% TSDR,
which means that very few of such loans will
be made. And while no specific punishments
have been laid out for banks that breach
these rules, most will not dare to.

Additionally, FIs have to use the incomeweighted average age of borrowers when
applying the rules on loan tenure for joint
borrowers. This means that some joint buyers
can no longer rely on using the combination
of an older higher-income borrower and a
younger lower-income borrower to get the
best of both worlds combination of a large
mortgage with a long tenor. For example, in
the past joint borrowers who were 45 and 35
years old and earned $120,000 and $60,000
respectively could potentially still get a 30
year loan. Now with the new rules they would
only qualify for a 23 year loan.

2) 30% haircut
There is an arbitrary 30% cut of all variable
and rental income, and 30% to 70% cut for
the value of eligible financial assets.
3) 3.5% or 4.5% interest rate
1) Marginal Buyers
Buyers who are highly leveraged with
property or non-property debts, and buyers
whose affordability depends on low interest

Payoh.
HDBs building of 30-year-lease studio
apartments are meant to cater to the housing
needs of the aging population. Although
singles can also apply for the studios, it is
obvious that they are more popular among
the seniors, especially when the interior of the
studios is designed for the needs of the
elderly.
With the concentration of old people in studio
apartments and mature estates, is there
anything that can be done in planning to
avoid the damage caused by fire or an act of
God?
By Property Soul, a successful property
investor and enthusiast who shares her
experiences and knowledge on her blog.

to lend to you.
My worst property investments were the ones
I did based on what everybody else does,
when I ignored the rules and skills I learnt and
bought property based on a sales pitch
delivered by a new build company. I put my
money in the deal, the market dropped, and
the rents did not achieve what was sold to
me.
The best ones are the rest... buy below
market value, change the use and add value
to achieve high ROI and yields.
What are the most important lessons
youve learnt about living a happy,
successful and meaningful life?
For me, living a happy, successful, and
meaningful life means understanding who you
are, what gifts you have and how that fits in
with rest of the world.

Q1 sees 42% fall in property investment
sales
The investment sale of properties has fallen
by 42% from $8.88 billion in Q4 2012 to $5.13
billion in Q1 2013 so far. Nevertheless, the
year-end total is expected to be at the same
level as 2012s or even higher, with $31.39
billion or more. The fall in this quarter can be
attributed to the traditional slower Chinese

total of eight properties, more than the fullyear figure of $62.44 million in 2012. At least
$150 million worth of transactions is expected
to be completed by this year. The strong
performance was despite the latest round of
cooling measures in the secondary market,
since there were four high-value sales
accounting for a total sales value of $70.1
million or 92.1% of total sales value in Q1.
These include two shophouses which usually
offers yield of 2-4% per annum, and a GCB
plot at Chee Hoon Avenue near Botanic
Gardens MRT station which was sold for
$22.9 million. More high-value properties are
expected to be put up for auction since it
reaches out to more buyers with generated
publicity though transactions are likely to be
mainly from the industrial and commercial
segment given the cooling measures in the
residential segment.
