SINGAPORE — More than 70 per cent of Blossoms By The Park condominium units were sold on Saturday (April 29), the first launch after new cooling measures came into effect earlier this week.

Sales on the 275-unit development in one-north started on Saturday. As of 6pm, more than 70 per cent of the units were sold, at an average price of S$2,423 per square foot.

Singaporeans buying their second residential property will pay an ABSD of 20 per cent, up from 17 per cent, while those buying their third and subsequent residential property will have to pay an increased rate of 30 per cent, up from 25 per cent. Huttons Asia’s CEO Mark Yip said Blossoms By The Park was the best-selling Rest of Central Region project in 2023 so far, based on percentage.

Mr Lim Yew Soon, managing director of EL Development, said they were “heartened” by the response and added that the large majority of buyers were Singaporeans.
