Soleil @ Sinaran Condo 80% Sold

Source : The Business Times, 17 Aug 2007

FRASERS Centrepoint has sold 80 per cent of its Soleil @ Sinaran condo near Novena MRT Station at an average price of nearly $1,500 psf, with 173 units sold at yesterday’s soft launch, following last week’s staff and VIP preview when 156 units were sold.

The 99-year leasehold condo seems to have attracted predominantly Singaporeans and permanent residents, according to Frasers Centrepoint Homes chief operating officer Cheang Kok Kheong.

Buyers included a mix of investors as well as likely owner occupiers, drawn by the project’s location and its proximity to the Orchard Road belt, he added. There was a buyer who purchased an entire floor of seven apartments, Mr Cheang revealed.

‘Those who’re buying properties are basically looking at a long-term investment and the real economy here is still doing well,’ Mr Cheang said in explaining why the US sub-prime woes and global stock market rout seem to have had little impact on Soleil buyers.

Soleil @ Sinaran comprises two 36-storey blocks. Apartments come with one, two, three and four bedrooms. Frasers Centrepoint will release the project’s four penthouses - each with five bedrooms - at today’s official launch. Their prices start from $8.5 million.
