There’s a bit of irony in District 15, in that – while it’s known for smaller boutique condos – it’s also known for large private land parcels, like this one at Goodman Road. This is a newly furnished bungalow sitting on a massive 16,424 sq ft of freehold land (close to three tennis courts), with […] The post Inside Rare $39m Freehold Bungalow In District 15 – With Over 16,000 Sq Ft Of Space first appeared on TheFinance.sg.

Not many roads in Singapore carry the kind of weight that Meyer Road does. It’s been considered an exclusive landed enclave since before the Second World War, when even then wealthy Europeans would have seaside homes here. Among the detached plots that remain, you occasionally find one like this.

Although I’ve been investing and writing about real estate for over a decade now, some questions still make me pause and take a deep breath. Because what’s going to follow is a very long-winded explanation, chock-full of words like “unless,” “maybe,” and “contextually.” And at the end of it, I know you’re going to be disappointed and […] The post The 5 Most Common Property Questions Everyone Asks In Singapore – But No One Can Answer first appeared on TheFinance.sg.

We’ve hit yet another terrible milestone in the scheme of crazy HDB prices, with a 5-room in Boon Keng reaching $1.54 million.

The first half of 2025 has been unusual to say the least, and as I write this, we’re just coming out of one of the biggest launch weekends to date: over 900 units were sold, despite a supposedly rocky economy.
