Valuation

How Is Your Lentor Property Valued?

A realistic valuation is built from recent completed transactions and the specific features of your unit — not from asking prices alone.

Location & accessibility

Proximity to Lentor MRT, schools, parks and major roads affects buyer demand and achievable price.

Unit size & floor level

Larger units and higher floors often command a per-square-foot premium, but the relationship is not always linear.

Condition & presentation

Renovation quality, maintenance and staging influence how quickly buyers move and how strongly they offer.

Tenure & age

Freehold, 999-year and leasehold each carry different buyer profiles and depreciation considerations.

Comparable transactions

Recent completed sales in your development and nearby projects are the strongest evidence of market value.

Market sentiment

Interest rates, supply pipelines and seasonal demand can shift achievable prices over short periods.

Important: Asking prices advertised online are not transaction prices. They can be useful directional signals, but basing a valuation on them alone can lead to over- or under-pricing. Always cross-check with completed transaction records.

Comparable Sales

Comparable Sales Analysis

A comparable market analysis (CMA) compares your property with recently sold units that buyers actually paid for. Here is the methodology used for Lentor properties.

1

Identify similar developments

Shortlist projects in Lentor with comparable age, tenure, unit mix and amenities.

2

Adjust for features

Account for floor level, condition, view, orientation and any unique attributes.

3

Compare PSF

Look at price per square foot alongside absolute price to control for size differences.

4

Check transaction dates

Recent sales carry more weight. Older records are adjusted for market movement.

Marketing Plan

Marketing Your Lentor Property

A successful sale reaches the right buyers — upgraders, first-time owners, investors and landed-property seekers — with clear information and a compelling presentation.

Professional photography & virtual tour

High-quality images, floor plans and a virtual walkthrough help buyers shortlist before they visit.

Targeted online listings

Your property is positioned on major property portals where Lentor buyers are actively searching.

Social media & content

Neighbourhood-focused posts and video snippets attract buyers already interested in the Lentor area.

Agent network & buyer database

Direct outreach to Huttons co-broke agents and a database of buyers looking in Lentor and nearby.

Viewings & open houses

Private appointments for serious buyers and optional open-house sessions to create competition.

Honest pricing & feedback loop

Marketing is monitored weekly. Buyer feedback and viewing activity inform pricing discussions.

Positioning to the right audience

Depending on your property, the campaign may emphasise proximity to Lentor MRT for commuters, nearby schools for families, or the landed lifestyle for multi-generational buyers. See who is buying in Lentor or explore nearby developments.

Sale Process

Step-by-Step Sale Process

Knowing what comes next helps you prepare documents, manage timelines and avoid last-minute surprises.

Initial consultation

Discuss your goals, timeline and any concerns. Review the property and identify key selling points.

Valuation & pricing

Prepare a CMA-backed pricing recommendation and agree on an asking strategy.

Marketing launch

Photography, listings, social content and agent outreach go live according to the plan.

Viewings

Private showings and optional open houses. Feedback is shared after each session.

Offer negotiation

Assess offers, negotiate price and terms, and select the most suitable buyer.

OTP / exercise

Issue or accept the Option to Purchase. Buyer pays the option fee and exercises within the option period.

Legal completion

Lawyers handle title transfer, CPF refunds, loan redemption and stamp duties.

Handover

Final inspection, key handover and settlement of adjustments.

Important: HDB sellers should [confirm latest HDB MOP / resale levy rules with HDB]. Private sellers should confirm financing redemption and CPF refund timelines with their lawyer. Landed sales may involve additional URA and estate checks.

How long does it take to sell a property in Lentor?

Timeline depends on pricing, market conditions and buyer financing. Most condo and HDB listings take several weeks to a few months from launch to firm sale. Landed properties may take longer due to a smaller buyer pool.

What is the difference between selling an HDB flat and a private condo in Lentor?

HDB sales must comply with HDB rules such as the Minimum Occupation Period (MOP), resale levy and ethnic integration policy. Private condo sales are governed by the Sales and Purchase Agreement and the Strata Titles Act, with fewer eligibility restrictions.

When do I need to engage a lawyer?

You should appoint a lawyer once you accept an offer or issue the Option to Purchase. The lawyer handles title checks, CPF and loan redemption, stamp duties and completion paperwork.

What costs should I budget when selling?

Typical seller costs include agent commission, legal fees, mortgage discharge costs, property tax and maintenance fee adjustments, and any outstanding renovation loans. HDB sellers should also check resale levy and upgrading costs.

Landed Properties

Landed Property Selling Notes

Selling a landed home in Lentor involves factors that do not apply to apartments — land value, rebuild potential and estate rules can be as important as the house itself.

Plot ratio & land tenure

Check the allowable plot ratio, land tenure and any land-use zoning that affects future redevelopment value.

Land value vs rebuild value

Buyers may value the land more than the existing structure. A rebuild appraisal can change pricing strategy.

A&A vs rebuild

Understand whether additions & alterations or a full rebuild is more attractive to the target buyer profile.

Conservation & estate rules

Verify GCB, conservation, estate covenants and URA guidelines that may restrict changes or buyer eligibility.

Buyer profile

Buyers range from multi-generational families to developers. Positioning and pricing should reflect the most likely buyer.

Timing Strategy

Should You Sell First or Buy First?

The right sequence depends on your finances, risk appetite and the current market cycle. Here is a balanced view of the trade-offs.

Sell first

  • Know your exact sale proceeds and budget before committing.
  • Avoid bridging-loan interest and dual-mortgage pressure.
  • Stronger negotiating position as a cash-ready buyer.
  • You may need temporary accommodation if your next home is not ready.

Buy first

  • Secure your dream home without rushing the search.
  • Avoid moving twice or living in interim rental.
  • May require a bridging loan and tighter cash-flow management.
  • Risk of selling under pressure if the market softens.

Financial readiness

Can you comfortably service two loans or cover bridging interest if needed?

Bridging loan options

[Confirm current bridging-loan terms and TDSR limits with a mortgage specialist.]

Market cycle

In a rising market, buying first may lock in price. In a slower market, selling first reduces risk.

Contingency risk

How much flexibility do you have for temporary accommodation and moving twice?

Not sure which path fits you? Every situation is different. Speak through the numbers and timelines before you commit.
