New year, new launches, and new opportunities to find your dream home.
Following a lull in the earlier months of 2024, November saw no fewer than six new private residential developments hitting the market all at once. These include The Collective at One Sophia, Chuan Park, Emerald of Katong, Union Square Residences, Nava Grove, and Novo Place (Executive Condominium) โ all of which saw healthy take-up rates on their respective launch weekends.
However, despite the strong demand exhibited by condo-seekers, itโs still early to determine whether such a level of interest will be sustainable next year. Still, in any case, prospective private home buyers in Singapore will definitely have more new launches to look forward to as 2025 unfolds.
With 24 new private home developments and three EC projects anticipated to launch next year, 2025 is already shaping up to be a year of opportunity for owners and investors alike.
Core Central Region (CCR) launches in 2025
By and large, 2024 was a subdued year for CCR launches. In the first nine months of the year, developers launched just 313 new private homes in Singaporeโs city core โ a stark contrast to the 941 units in the RCR and 1,968 units in the OCR.
However, a turnaround is on the cards in 2025, with approximately 3,600 units across nine CCR launches projected for the full year.
Most Anticipated New Condo Launch
The upcoming launch at Marina Gardens Lane will be the first of its kind, being a 790-unit development close to Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay. Moreover, its proximity to the future Marina South MRT station promises great convenience for future residents.
