Mr Clemence Lee, Senior Director, JLL, says: “The assets was first launched available for sale in September 2018 which has a guide price of $52 million. Upon the close of the EOI, we received a few offers which fell short of the owner’s expectation. The property was subsequently withdrawn from the sector.
With the improving office market in Singapore, we are seeing more investors shift their focus back to the business sector. We feel that it is timely to put the assets into the marketplace again to offer buyers another chance to reconsider this exceptional opportunity. With the pricing lowered to between $46 to $49 million, we expect strong interest from both investors and owner occupiers who are looking to acquire a centrally-located freehold specialist constructing in a bustling region undergoing rejuvenation and gentrification.”
