The site can accommodate a maximum gross floor area of around 1.97 million sq ft, based on its plot ratio of 2.8 under the Urban Redevelopment Authority\u2019s 2014 Master Plan.<br \/>\nA sought-after estate, Tampines is poised to become more exciting with the Changi Airport\u2019s expansion, noted Sim Lian Holdings managing director Ken Kuik.<br \/>\n\u201cThis, combined with the fact that new MRT stations are coming up in the Tampines area, will attract more residential property buyers as well as enhance the investment proposition for the area.\u201d<br \/>\nThe group is making the purchase via Sim Lian (Treasure), a joint venture between Sim Lian Land and Sim Lian Development. It will also handle the construction of the project.<br \/>\n\u201cWe\u2019re looking at a 12-storey project with easily over 2,000 units, ranging from one-bedders to four or even five-bedders,\u201d said Kuik.<br \/>\nA market watcher expects Sim Lian\u2019s breakeven cost to stand at around S$1,200 psf, after factoring in an anticipated increase in DC rates come 1 September and other costs.<br \/>\nThe en bloc sale will be subject to the Strata Titles Board\u2019s (STB) approval and if necessary the High Court, unless the owners\u2019 unanimous approval is obtained.<br \/>\nTo avoid paying additional buyer\u2019s stamp duty on the land price, Sim Lian will have to finish developing the project and sell all units in five years starting from the date the collective sale order is granted by the STB or the court.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nThis article was edited by Denise Djong.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : proppertyguru.com.sg\/Property Market&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.propertyguru.com.sg\/property-management-news\/2017\/8\/158966\/sim-lian-to-build-12-storey-condo-at-tampines-site\" target=\"_blank\">Sim Lian to build 12-storey condo at Tampines site<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; \u00a0 Sim Lian intends to develop a condominium project with over 2,000 units on the&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64471","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-gLR","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":105365,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/treasure-at-tampines-moved-272-units-at-1280-psf-on-average\/","url_meta":{"origin":64471,"position":0},"title":"Treasure at Tampines moved 272 units at $1,280 psf on average","date":"March 25, 2019","format":false,"excerpt":"\r A Sim Lian spokesman said the developer was heartened by sales to date for Treasure at Tampines, which is located in one of Singapore\u2019s fastest growing regional centres.
