Realstar Premier Group continues to establish and cement its position in the niche, competitive and dynamic luxury landed property sector with its consistent and dominant large market share. Remarkably, since its inception in 2001, the agency has brokered almost $17 billion worth of landed properties. For 1Q2024, 19 properties in Central Districts successfully transacted, totalling $324.33 million.

Managing director Julian Yip attributes this stellar milestone to Realstar’s clientele of buyers and sellers who have placed their utmost trust and support in the agency’s hands. “We are profoundly grateful for their trust and loyalty. Without them, this incredible accomplishment would not have been possible,” Julian says.

Scaling new heights, superseding milestones

Led by highly experienced management team with years in the real estate industry, Realstar’s stellar results and record of accomplishment stand on the back of an agile team of 60 active agents — all of whom possess passion, drive, and customer-centric mindsets.

The elite line-up of directors is set to maintain Realstar’s forefront position in the niche landed sector and to continuously innovate and remain committed in honing its craft. At the apex of the leadership is managing director Julian Yip. He is among a handful of registered property agents in Singapore who have successfully surpassed $1 billion worth in landed property value.

Under his close comradery is Serene Ang head of GCB and Central District. With over 23 years of experience in the property market, Serene has honed her craft and expertise in the sale of private landed homes within Singapore's prestigious districts with a dedicated team encompassing Business Development and Customer Relations, ensuring a seamless and exceptional experience for all her esteemed clients.

With a proven track record, the Central District team consistently delivers exceptional results for landed home buyers and sellers. Recently, two exclusive listings under the agency—Coronation Road West and Dalkeith Road — sold in less than a month. Among the homes recently transacted by Realstar’s central team is a prestigious GCB located at Fifth Avenue. In April and May 2024 alone, the team successfully sold 27 landed properties, with several transactions currently in progress.

Realstar continues to uphold its trailblazing legacy in the landed property sector with a portfolio of prime listings. Recently, the agency expanded its offerings by adding nine prestigious Good Class Bungalows (GCBs) and bungalows for sale in East Sussex Lane, Jalan Sejarah, Trevose vicinity, and six other prime locations in the heart of Bukit Timah. This brings their extensive database to over a hundred premier landed properties.

The GCB at East Sussex Lane is nestled within prime Bukit Timah in District 10. It sits on over 17,000 sq ft of freehold land with a built-up area of about 20,000 sq ft. This home cements a solid first impression with an expansive frontage spanning close to 33m.

The prime asset is sure to capture attention with its exquisite European castle-inspired design, featuring arch-shaped windows, neutral colour palette and lush landscaping, which perfectly harmonises both the hardscapes and softscapes. This was envisioned and brought to life by acclaimed architecture firm ONG&ONG. Upon setting foot in the generous compound, residents are greeted with a bright and well-ventilated natural basement which can house several cars, ideal for gatherings on well-treasured occasions.

The formal living area rests under a lofty 7m ceiling which features a masterpiece of a chandelier. This magnificent abode has everything a family needs, from privacy to wellness and entertainment features. Its future owner can rest in the comfort of its six en suite bedrooms, hit their daily workout quota in the curated gym or simply enjoy a movie in the sound-insulated movie theatre with a glass of wine, poured from the many bottles in the dedicated wine cellar.

A significant highlight is the close proximity to Buona Vista and Holland Village MRT stations on the East-West Line and Circle Line. Both stations are located a brisk five-minute drive away, offering seamless transitions and unhurried outings. Residents will be spoilt for choice in terms of eateries and amenities at the recently opened One Holland Village Mall and Chip Bee Gardens, which offer an eclectic mix of various cuisines and traditional fare. Residents with school-going children will find Henry Park Primary School within close proximity and accessible via an array of bus services.

Leveraging on its multitude of success in this niche segment, Realstar has also secured an exclusive listing for a prestigious bungalow located at Trevose in District 11. The home rests on over 10,500 sq ft of freehold land and is surrounded by lush greenery amidst a tranquil, serene locale. With an impressive frontage of over 43 metres, this paves way for endless opportunities for the next owner, from potentially redeveloping to subdividing the plot or doing addition & alteration works on the existing home.

The current home, which had undergone major additions & alterations almost 16 years ago, has been well maintained and upkept throughout these years. The home features seven bedrooms, two study rooms ideal for hybrid work arrangements, a gym surrounded by greenery, a lap pool and outdoor pavilions. This detached house, along with six others within the vicinity, are part of Realstar’s prized portfolio of seven landed assets in the Central District. The homes have a collective land area spanning an impressive 30,000 sq ft.

Heartwarming and encouraging testimonials

The agency’s central team, with its accumulated wealth of experience and successful transactions, have garnered numerous praise, heartwarming and encouraging testimonials:

“Selling our bungalow with Serene Ang and Shirley Ting of Realstar Premier Group exceeded all our expectations. Serene Ang and Shirley Ting demonstrated exceptional professionalism and commitment throughout the entire process. They kept us informed at every stage, provided valuable insights, and navigated negotiations with skill and expertise. Their proactive approach and attention to detail ensured a seamless transaction and a favourable outcome. We are grateful for their dedicated service and highly recommend them to anyone seeking top-notch representation in the luxury real estate market.” – Mr Odell

“I would like to highly recommend Serene Ang and her team for their professionalism in the sale of my late dad’s bungalow recently. Through a concerted effort of advertising and marketing, Serene’s team of agents were able to have many viewings on the property, with Serene providing me updates on viewers, their profile and post-viewing feedback. My main interaction has only been with Serene as she manages her team of agents and will then filter the feedback to me. At all times, I have found Serene to be very friendly and polite, with a keen sense of what her client’s needs are. She is proactive and knows how to push a deal to closure and I would highly recommend her and her team’s services.” — Fifth Avenue property owner.

“Serene and Karis were highly professional and efficient with a vast knowledge of the real estate market. From our very first meeting, they already had a marketing strategy in mind. They patiently walked us through the entire process, from valuation to presentation to marketing. At all times they were readily available and responsive to our needs and concerns. Viewings arranged and conducted with minimal disruptions. We were pleasantly surprised when Karis came with the Option to Purchase in just under three weeks and at a price we were comfortable with! We highly recommend these two professionals who have been such a joy to work with.” — landed property owners.

“These heartwarming testimonials of gratitude are what drives us to always give our best and is a testament to Realstar’s constant commitment to delivering value to our esteemed clients,” says Julian. The addition of these successful deals brings to a total of 27 landed properties sold by Realstar in April and May.
