8M Residences only sold 4 out of 68 units since May Launch

Industry observers said the property at Margate Road is overpriced at $2000 to $2300 psf.

Singapore Business Review's spotcheck with Huttons Real Estate Group agents confirmed that the 20-storey freehold development which was launched on May 25 managed to only sell 4 out of 68 units to-date.

Estmated price for the smallest unit at 527sft of 8M Residences is $1.1m but an industry observer who requested anonymity commented that it should only be $700,000.

"I think it's overpriced for a property with very small units and swimming pool that can just actually accommodate 2 swimmers. I would buy it for $700K," he said.

Another observer meanwhile said that price psf for 8M Residences should not go beyond $1,600.
