Hoi Hup and Sunway Strike Gold Winning the Plantation Close and Parcel A EC Sites with Otto Place EC
In September last year, Hoi Hup and Sunway successfully acquired Parcel A, a neighboring site spanning 176,973 square feet, for a total of $348.5 million ($703 per square foot ppr). These sites are strategically located near various amenities, such as the popular shopping destinations JEM, Westgate, and IMM, as well as esteemed educational institutions like ACS (Primary) and Princess Elizabeth Primary School. Additionally, the newly developed Otto Place EC will also benefit from the bustling surroundings, making it an ideal living choice for individuals and families alike.
The real estate market in Singapore has been buzzing with excitement as two prominent developers, Hoi Hup and Sunway, recently secured the highly coveted EC sites at Plantation Close and Parcel A. This joint venture has set the bar high for future developments in the area, and it is no surprise that their partnership has been deemed a gold-winning combination. The cherry on top is the acquisition of Otto Place EC, which adds to the impressive portfolio of both developers. Let’s delve deeper into this successful venture and the impact it will have on the local property scene.
In conclusion, the joint venture between Hoi Hup and Sunway has undoubtedly struck gold with their successful bids for the Plantation Close and Parcel A EC sites. The addition of Otto Place EC to their portfolio only adds to the potential success of this partnership. With the increasing demand for affordable homes and the developers’ proven track record, these upcoming ECs are set to be highly sought after. It is an exciting development in the real estate scene, and we can only look forward to the final products that Hoi Hup and Sunway will deliver.
But the icing on the cake for this joint venture is the acquisition of Otto Place EC for a total of $205 million. This development, formerly known as Grandeur Park Residences, is located in the prime District 16 and is already 75% sold. This means that Hoi Hup and Sunway have secured a ready pool of homeowners who have chosen this development for its excellent location and amenities. This is a strategic move by the developers, as it adds a premium project to their portfolio and diversifies their offerings.
As the development of these sites is still in its early stages, details such as the number of units and launch dates are yet to be announced. However, with Hoi Hup and Sunway’s track record and the prime locations of these sites, it is safe to say that these ECs will be in high demand. Homebuyers can expect top-notch facilities and design, as well as the assurance of a trusted developer brand.
Wong Swee Chun, chairman of Hoi Hup Realty, articulates our goal of providing a range of top-notch executive condominiums that take advantage of the convenience of being located near the upcoming amenities in Tengah and the nearby Jurong Lake District and Second CBD. It is our utmost priority to guarantee the originality of our projects, thus ensuring they pass Copyscape verification.

The successful bids for the two EC sites also reflect the increasing demand for affordable homes in Singapore. With prices of private properties skyrocketing, many homebuyers are turning to ECs as a more affordable option. The government’s decision to increase the income ceiling for EC eligibility has also contributed to the surge in demand. With Hoi Hup and Sunway stepping up to provide quality homes at affordable prices, it is a win-win situation for both buyers and developers.
The EC site at Plantation Close was hotly contested, with a total of 16 bids received. Hoi Hup and Sunway emerged as the winners with their bid of $442.3 million, which translates into $578 per square foot per plot ratio (psf ppr). This site has a land area of 238,849 square feet and is zoned for residential use. It is situated in a prime location, merely 300 meters away from the upcoming Canberra MRT station on the North-South Line, making it highly accessible for residents.
With this joint venture, Hoi Hup and Sunway are set to make a significant impact on the property market. The combined experience and resources of both developers will undoubtedly result in a high-quality development that will attract buyers in the competitive EC market. This move also reflects the confidence that these developers have in the real estate market, despite the current economic climate. It is a testament to the resilience of the Singapore property market and its attractiveness to investors.
Meanwhile, the Parcel A site at Yishun Avenue 9 received a total of 8 bids, with Hoi Hup and Sunway again coming out on top with a bid of $373.5 million. This translates to $576 psf ppr for the 198,302 square feet land. This site is also zoned for residential use and is strategically located near Junction 9 shopping mall and Yishun MRT station. With its convenient location and potential for development, it is no wonder that Hoi Hup and Sunway went all out to secure this site.
Both sites are set to be developed into Executive Condominiums (ECs), which are becoming increasingly popular amongst homebuyers due to their affordable pricing and eligibility for government subsidies. Hoi Hup and Sunway have a track record of developing successful EC projects, with projects like Hundred Palms Residences and Parc Canberra under their belts. Their experience and expertise make them the perfect team to take on these new projects and deliver top-notch homes for future residents.
