*The Price of Waiting vs. The Power of Movement*
“Should we sell and buy in today’s market? It’s the question I get every single day. The common fear is: ‘Even if I sell high, I’ll just end up buying high.’ But is staying put actually the safest bet?
Let’s look at two different scenarios over the last 12 years.”
The Comparison
“Client A bought a 3-bedroom at Coco Palms for $960K in 2014. He held it all the way until 2025 and sold it for $1.5M.
• The Result: A solid profit of $550K. Including his initial capital, his equity grew to $790K.
Not bad, right?
But then there is Client B. He bought a similar unit in the same project for $900K but decided to exit earlier.
• Move 1: He sold in 2018 for $1.17M, making a $270K profit.
• Move 2: He took that capital, added some savings, and upgraded to a 5-bedroom at Treasure at Tampines for $2M.
• Move 3: By 2023, he sold that property for nearly $3M, netting a $988K profit.
Today, Client B has increase to $1.5M and he bought a Freehold Semi-D at $4.5M
The current valuation of his landed home is at $5.2M.”
*Client A*
$240K (Capital) + $550K (Profit)
= $790K (In 11 years)
*Client B*
$1.5M + 700k
= $2.2M (In same span of time)
“Both started at the same time in the same project. But Client B is in a significantly stronger position today. Why? Because he didn’t just wait for the market to grow—he made his property work for him.
The real question isn’t whether the price is high. The question is: Is your property working hard enough for you?
If you’re wondering if it’s time to swap your property for one with higher growth potential, I’ve identified a list of projects that are positioned for the next wave of appreciation.
