“After contacting several interested buyers, she sold our home to the right buyer at just the right price and time.”
What makes a property attractive?
It is difficult to find a qualified buyer for a flat that has a price tag of more than $1.2 million. However, a property with these attributes will always attract attention from buyers.
Attractive location: Near amenities
A flat close to amenities like schools, public transport and supermarkets will generally attract more buyers.
Nicole’s home was perfect: It has five bedrooms and is situated in the Central region near the Central Business District (CBD), and two MRT stations (Tiong Bahru & Outram Park).
Large Unit Size
These larger units are more desirable because they are more livable and are often priced higher. A flat measuring approximately 1,184 square feet. It’s not surprising that it sold for over $1.2million.
Newly renovated
Buyers are generally willing to pay more for a flat that is close to amenities and the city.
Nicole’s flat was tastefully remodeled using high-quality materials and furniture that cost $150,000. The apartment looked luxurious and had plenty of storage space, lighting effects, and ambience lighting. The house also had a built in sound system, which was perfect for unwinding.
The unit had only two bedrooms but the new owners will be able to make the third bedroom their own.
The lease on the flat remains quite long
Because they have a longer lease, older flats are more valuable than the newer models (about five to six years).
Nicole’s family flat had more than 93 years left on its lease.
Why did Ohmyhome sell Nicole’s flat for a record-breaking price?
Ohmyhome can find the right buyer for your flat regardless of its location or condition.
