SINGAPORE (EDGEPROP) - The seller of a unit at Watermark Robertson Quay, on Rodyk Street, made the top gain of $1.47 million over the week of Feb 4 to 11. The 1,916 sq ft unit on the 10th floor was bought for $1.6 million ($835 psf) in December 2005 and sold for $3.07 million ($1,600 psf) on Feb 5. The seller therefore made a 92% profit, or an annualised profit of 5% over 14 years.
