11 OCT 2020: WALLICH RESIDENCE – at $3000psf, I don’t think it is expensive
I told my client to meet at the ground floor lobby of Wallich Residence, and as expected, he couldn’t find it. By design, it is nicely tucked away from the public areas of Guoco Tower, and I had to head out to Japan Rail Cafe to meet him there instead. After 1.5 hours, my client was impressed. From the concierge on the ground floor to the swimming pool deck on the 39th floor and the secondary facilities deck on 52nd floor, everything about Wallich Residence exudes quality and luxury. But the monthly maintenance for smaller units is $1,000 per month! Not sure whether that will be a deal-breaker for my client or not 🙂 But he seemed very happy with layout and facing of the 2-bedroom (915sf and 958sf) and the smaller 3-bedroom units (1098sf) units. The price quantum is quite hefty at more than $3.4m for the cheapest 3br 1098sf unit on the 47th floor, but surely, there must be something special about Wallich Residence for James Dyson to cough out a cool $73m for his super-penthouse on the 62nd floor? I rest my case.

MONEY MIND: “Living the High Life in the CBD”
Every evening, I walk 3.5km around the Marina Bay, and see hordes of tourists enjoying themselves. And I always wonder to myself: Why are Singaporeans not enjoying themselves here?
In many global cities around the world, living in the financial district is a privilege and will cost a bomb, but uniquely in Singapore, you can still get a good unit at many D1, D2 and D7 properties for the same price — in terms of psf — as some new condo launches in the outlying suburbs!
