Elias Green condo up for en bloc sale with S$780m reserve price

ELIAS Green is the latest condominium to hit the en bloc market in search of a buyer.

PropNex Realty's Richard Hau told The Business Times that the owners of the 419-unit Pasir Ris condo launch a public tender for the site on Monday (Oct 29) with a S$780 million reserve price.

This means that the owners of the 516,877 sq ft development could each walk away with S$1.7 million to just below S$2 million.

The condo, which was completed in 1994, has an allowable gross floor area (GFA) of 723,627 square feet and a plot ratio of 1.4, which translates to S$1,078 per square foot per plot ratio (psf ppr).

Mr Hau said that a potential buyer might be interested in raising the plot ratio to 2.1, similar to developments in the immediate surrounding.

Should that happen, the plot ratio would go down to about S$719 psf ppr he said. There would also be a development charge of S$60 million.

The tender closes on Jan 11, 2019.
