Putting things in a diff perspective.
Brownstone MOP in 2022. Owners trying to sell $1.2psf.
Pros > Next owner can move in quickly
Cons > bounded with 5 years MOP to wait till privatisation and MSR for loan.
Parcel A & B new launches could yield total around 7xx units. If both launch next year at 13xx-14xx, owners are not bounded with MOP. Just 3 years SSD can sell after that + Not bounded with MSR.
Would one buy Resale Brownstone or New launch parcel A & B?
For me, exact layout/view/storey factors aside, i will choose the one with cheaper psf
To me, a 5-year-old unit is as good as new.
But like you've pointed out, that's if owners dont intend to stay long and is restricted by MSR, those people will likely get parcel A/B.
Brownstone MOP in 2022. If they are trying to sell @ $1.2k psf. It would just make the new launches more attractive since its newer and just slightly higher psf. Unless they really really like brownstone or looking for move in ready units.
FYI, There will be 3 launches in Canberra in 2021.
> EC next to Parc Canberra
> Plot A
> Plot B
Buyers are able to Compare since everything can be found online. If brownstone selling at $1.2k psf, the new EC launching at $1.1-1.2k psf And private plot A & B selling at $1.3-1.4k psf, which is more attractive?
New EC if I'm able to get the unit i want.
Otherwise, a suitable unit in brownstone, assuming the psf is cheaper than a comparable unit in part A/B.
Of cos, eligibility and other factors you've mentioned above not included.
