There is no development charge payable.<br \/>\nLocated on Pearl\u2019s Hill next to Outram Park MRT interchange, the 37-storey horseshoe-shaped building comprises 280 apartments and eight commercial units. It sits on an 82,376 sq ft site and has a 99-year lease with effect from June 1970.<br \/>\nThe apartment owners, whose unit sizes range from approximately 1,323 sq ft to 3,993 sq ft, stand to get between $1.8 million and $4.9 million, while the commercial owners could receive $1.2 million to $6.9 million for their units ranging from 700 sq ft to 5,630 sq ft.<br \/>\n\u00a0\u201cWe started the signing process on 8 July and have achieved the necessary signatures in under four months, which is significantly faster than our previous rounds,\u201d said Alex Poh, chairman of the collective sale committee.<br \/>\n\u201cThe owners understand that it is time to sell given the age of the property and hence have shown great commitment to ensuring a smooth and quick process.\u201d<br \/>\nAccording to Colliers, the development has a gross plot ratio of 7.2 under the 2014 Master Plan and could be redeveloped into a residential project comprising 730 units with an average size of 800 sq ft, subject to approval from the relevant authorities.<br \/>\nThe tender for Pearlbank Apartments is expected to launch in two weeks\u2019 time and will close before the end of the year.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nRomesh Navaratnarajah, Senior Editor at PropertyGuru, wrote this story.
