A HDB flat at Bedok South Horizon just sold for a record $1.54m, $81k above the previous high
A five-room flat between the 13th and 15th floors of Block 152B Bedok South Road has been sold for $1.54 million, setting a record resale price for a public housing flat in Bedok.This leaps over the previous resale record price in Bedok by more than $81,000. The runner-up, incidentally, involved a unit at the neighboring Block 152C Bedok South Road. That unit was sold for $1.458 million ($1,199 psf) earlier this month.But the ink on the sale of that 1,216 sq ft five-room flat barely had time to set before it was already usurped in a lightning fast deal over the recent weekend.According to Rachel Xu, associate group director at PropNex Realty and the property agent who brokered the record-setting deal on behalf of the sellers, it took less than a week for the record $1.54 million five-room flat to get sold.The flat was first listed on Sept 12 with an asking price of $1.56 million, and she says that within hours it attracted four enquiries from prospective buyers who turned up the following afternoon to view the flat.
