The other two are situated at Block 50, Commonwealth Drive. One fetched $1.028 million in August, while the other sold for $1.035 million in October.<br \/>\nPropNex property agent Michelle Chia, who was involved in the Holland Village deal, revealed that the unit was bought by a couple in their 20s, who were attracted by the \u201cmillion-dollar view\u201d of the landed properties in the vicinity and the flat\u2019s nearness to many amenities like the Holland Village MRT station.<br \/>\nSurprisingly, the trio are just regular HDB flats and are not among those that have often commanded high prices, such as units in Pinnacle@Duxton, executive apartments and homes constructed under the Design, Build and Sell Scheme (DBSS).<br \/>\nFor instance, a DBSS penthouse at Bishan\u2019s Natura Loft was sold for $1.18 million last February.<br \/>\nA Pinnacle@Duxton flat that fetched $1.12 million set a new record for the most expensive HDB resale transaction last year, while a five-roomer at Clementi Towers went for $1,005,000.<br \/>\nWhile Clementi Towers was the first HDB development fused with a shopping mall and bus interchange, HDB blocks in Commonwealth and Holland Village don\u2019t enjoy such features as they were intended to house those displaced by the Housing Board\u2019s Selective En Bloc Redevelopment Scheme (SERS).<br \/>\nMeanwhile, a representative from PropNex noted that an HDB flat at Block 18C, Holland Drive changed hands for $975,000 in August<br \/>\n\u201cWe can expect prices at this block to be around this rate, possibly crossing the million-dollar mark again, in the near future, as buyers are prepared to pay over $1 million for the units\u2019 size and their central location,\u201d added the spokesman.<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\/11\/164724\/3-hdb-flats-resold-for-over-1mil\" target=\"_blank\">3 HDB flats resold for over mil<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; Despite a steady drop in HDB resale prices, at least three units in Holland Village&#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-71623","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-iDd","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":72653,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/news-roundup-november-2017\/","url_meta":{"origin":71623,"position":0},"title":"News Roundup (November 2017)","date":"November 23, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Our top Singapore property stories.
