What Could Work Against You

- The 33-unit size cuts both ways: exclusivity, but thinner resale liquidity and higher per-unit maintenance contributions than larger estates.

Who This Actually Suits
Buyers most likely to be happy here: young couples (no kids), mrt-walkable commuters, p1 school balloting families and yield-focused investors. The unit profile suits DINK couples valuing CBD/MRT access over square footage.
For car-owning households and international school families, it can work — but weigh the trade-offs before committing.
short-term flippers (<5 yr) and resort facilities should probably look elsewhere. TOP 2010 keeps the SSD window in mind for buyers exploring the 3-5 year resale-arbitrage strategy.
