Wheelock Properties shares, on the other hand, increased 3.9 percent or 7.5 cents to $1.98.<br \/>\nOn 4 October, CDL via its Cityzens Development unit and a joint-venture partner from Hong Leong Group acquired Amber Park for $906.7 million, which marked the largest freehold en bloc sale deal, while Kingsford Huray Developmen acquired Normanton Park the following day for $830.1 million.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nThis article was edited by Keshia Faculin.&#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\/10\/162188\/collective-sale-fever-sustainable-says-jp-morgan\" target=\"_blank\">Collective sale fever \u201csustainable\u201d, says JP Morgan<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; View of Amber Park, a 200-unit development in Amber Gardens.
