Claremont, a freehold development on Killiney Road, topped the list of condos that hit a new psf-price high during the period of July 14 to 19. This comes with the resale of a 958 sq ft, two-bedroom unit on the sixth floor on July 16. The unit changed hands for $2.26 million, which works out to $2,359 psf.
This is the first time a unit at Claremont has been transacted above $$2,300 psf. The price is nearly 8% more than the condo’s previous high of $2,189 psf, which was established last December when a 1,119 sq ft unit fetched $2.45 million.
The unit sold on July 16 was acquired by the seller in April 2021 for $1.75 million ($1,827 psf), caveats show. This means they made a gross gain of $510,000 on the unit after owning it for just over three years.
