Developed by GuocoLand Limited, this four-year-old freehold condominium in District 10, is close to a Good Class Bungalow estate, where investment potential is high. Leedon Residence has been awarded the Green Mark (Gold) by the Building & Construction Authority (BCA) for being an ecologically responsible and friendly development. This can have a positive effect on leasing as well as on the resale value of the property.

4 Reasons to Choose Leedon Residence for Your Next Property Investment:

1. Rental Price Increase

Singapore’s overall rents for condos in the Core Central Region (CCR) increased by 4% and the country’s rental prices increased on a year-on-year basis as of Q3 2019.

This is definitely good news for landlords and sellers, considering its strategic location and the number of upcoming developments within proximity such as the Holland Village Extension and Greater Southern Waterfront.

2. Higher Tenant Demand

In 2019, there are 2% more foreigners which contributed to the private property rental market.

The Holland Village Extension which was awarded to Far East Organization for its development is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025. Besides the new apartments, you can expect “a 10-storey serviced apartment tower and five levels of office space above the retail/F&B space” and “dual office/residential units as a component of the office space” according to Far East Organization executive director of property services Augustine Tan in an interview with The Business Times.
