Are Cluster Landed Homes Still a Good Investment? Analyzing Their Performance Over the Past Decade

Posted by Jayson Ang on October 19, 2024
| 0

TLDR

When it comes to cluster housing, freehold properties like Bishopsgate Residences command top prices, whereas bargains can be found in older leasehold options like Northshore Bungalows and Sungrove. Unique factors like location, unit size, and tenure influence prices and profitability. Making generalizations is challenging due to limited transaction volumes and property idiosyncrasies. Factors such as leasehold tenure limitations can impact property desirability and resale value. Consider individual circumstances when deciding to buy or sell cluster homes, as each property presents a unique investment opportunity.

Nestled in the enigmatic intersection between traditional landed homes and modern condos lie the elusive cluster homes. On one hand, they offer the luxury of owning land; on the other, they are still subject to management by a MCST and offer shared amenities.

Yet, amidst the bustling market of walk-up apartments, these unique dwellings have been largely overlooked and unexplored. However, we have decided to shed some light on this mysterious housing segment and delve into its performance in this week’s analysis.

The Average Increase In Prices For Cluster Homes With Freehold Status

Year Average of Unit Price ($ PSF) Change
2013 $865
2014 $912 5.4%
2015 $799 -12.3%
2016 $726 -9.2%
2017 $760 4.8%
2018 $797 4.8%
2019 $802 0.7%
2020 $747 -6.9%
2021 $814 8.9%
2022 $985 21.1%
2023 $1,038 5.3%
Avg Change 2.26%

Throughout the years 2013 to present, freehold cluster homes have experienced a consistent increase of 2.26 percent. Despite this noteworthy fact, these types of properties are not widely available, with a mere 1,760 transactions recorded over the course of a decade.

However, turning our attention to leasehold cluster homes, we see a striking contrast.

Average price growth for cluster housing (leasehold) 

Year Average of Unit Price ($ PSF) Change
2013 $807
2014 $810 0.4%
2015 $780 -3.7%
2016 $674 -13.6%
2017 $666 -1.1%
2018 $740 11.1%
2019 $752 1.5%
2020 $716 -4.7%
2021 $894 24.8%
2022 $924 3.3%
2023 $956 3.4%
Avg Change 2.15%

Despite being slightly below the performance of freehold counterparts, averaging around 2.15%, we continue to face the challenge of limited transaction volumes, with a mere 1,582 transactions recorded in the past decade.

While Freehold Cluster Homes Generally Showed A Bit Better Performance, There Might Be Additional Factors At Play That Aren’t Apparent In This Data

As the leasehold clock ticks down to 60 years or less, banks tighten their purse strings, cutting the maximum loan amount and reducing the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio from a comfortable 75 per cent to a restrictive 55 per cent. This means that buyers must dig deeper into their pockets for a higher cash outlay, a potential game-changer that could send property prices plummeting.

The situation is even more dire for landed homes, coveted for their spaciousness and premium price tag, as they bear the brunt of this lending policy. Industry insiders whisper that the resale market for older leasehold landed properties is sluggish, as buyers seek assets with a longer shelf life for future generations.

This theory, although unproven, suggests that the desirability of these homes may differ from traditional landed properties. After all, the allure of cluster homes lies in their generous square footage and landed lifestyle at a fraction of the cost and maintenance.

When we examine the average annualised returns, we may find some validation of the realtors’ claims. The cream of the crop, ranging from Chateau La Salle to Solaris Residences, all boast the coveted statuses of freehold, 999-years, or some other variation. However, the bottom rung of the chart showcases a cluster of leasehold landed homes, such as Gambier Court, Hillsta, and Eleven @ Holland.

Yet, it is a challenging task to make sweeping generalizations. It’s worth noting that many of these developments have only recorded a single transaction, resulting in a volatile market: a previous transaction influenced by special circumstances (such as a distressed sale or a buyer’s personal residence) can significantly skew the subsequent transaction’s price.

Moreover, cluster housing projects possess their own distinct idiosyncrasies. Take, for instance, Chateau La Salle, with a mere six units and no available floor plans. The most recent transaction involved a unit spanning over 4,800 sq.ft., while a previous purchase in 2001 saw a whopping 11,923 sq.ft. unit. Such a rare find cannot be replicated elsewhere.

Similarly, Gambier Court, situated within the prestigious Robertson Quay area of District 9, comprises only 23 units and has a freehold tenure dating back to 1999. However, it pales in comparison to its neighbors due to the common expectation that a District 9 condominium would come with a freehold tenure. Perhaps this explains the lower profitability of a 25-year-old leasehold unit here.

Let’s Examine The Cluster Housing Projects That Have The Highest And Lowest Costs Per Square Foot

The costliest of all were these exclusive cluster housing developments.

Project Tenure Average of Unit Price ($ PSF)
BISHOPSGATE RESIDENCES Freehold $3,908
RIDGEWOOD 999 yrs from 06/07/1885 $1,886
NAMLY COURT Freehold $1,751
FERNHILL COTTAGE Freehold $1,735
KENT RIDGE HILL RESIDENCES 99 yrs from 10/11/2018 $1,683
GREENWOOD MEWS 103 yrs from 03/10/2011 $1,602
BOTANIC @ CLUNY PARK Freehold $1,462
AFFINITY AT SERANGOON 99 yrs from 18/05/2018 $1,437
RIVERFRONT RESIDENCES 99 yrs from 31/05/2018 $1,427
JC VILLE Freehold $1,382

Not surprisingly, freehold cluster homes reign supreme, commanding premium prices at Bishopsgate Residences. Despite its jaw-dropping cost, this Kajima masterpiece – the same developer behind Resorts World Sentosa and Marina Bay Financial Centre – boasts a prime location near the bustling Grange Road district, home to a cluster of foreign embassies. It’s no wonder this 31-unit gem may catch the eye of ambassadors and dignitaries, or those seeking to rent to them. And amidst all the lavishness, these cluster housing projects still emerged as the most affordable options.

Project Tenure Average of Unit Price ($ PSF)
NORTHSHORE BUNGALOWS Freehold $419
SUNGROVE 99 yrs from 05/12/1994 $431
SURIN VILLAS Freehold $560
THE WOODS 99 yrs from 09/03/2010 $567
THE HILLOFT 999 yrs from 12/10/1885 $580
TERESA VILLAS Freehold $617
KIARA 10 Freehold $629
THE SHAUGHNESSY 99 yrs from 19/03/2001 $679
ASTON RESIDENCE 946 yrs from 01/01/1938 $680
LYNWOOD EIGHT Freehold $682

Northshore Bungalows and Sungrove, two hidden gems nestled in the heart of Punggol, are undoubtedly a revelation for bargain hunters. Despite being launched in 1995, when the area was still a barren land with no modern conveniences in sight, Northshore’s strategic location at Punggol Point made it a steal deal. The absence of Waterway Point and an LRT station back then, made its prices plummet. However, with the rapid development in the vicinity, it won’t be long before Northshore becomes a prized possession for its fortunate owners.

Meanwhile, Sun Grove stands as a shining example of a transformation story. Once shunned for its lack of accessibility and amenities in the ’90s, this area has undergone a complete metamorphosis. Yet, even with its impressive improvements, Sun Grove remains one of the most pocket-friendly options to own a landed property. So, if you’re on the lookout for an affordable slice of heaven, Sun Grove is where you’ll find it.

It’s Clear That The Performance Of Cluster Homes, Which Often Have Fewer Units, Can Be Quite Variable

These projects are ideally catered towards individuals seeking a permanent residence, as opposed to investors looking for potential profits. While condos offer a steady return on resale, cluster homes cater to those who desire the spaciousness of a landed property without the burden of extensive upkeep, such as roofing, facade touch-ups, or constructing their own private pool.
