What works in its favour
- Both anchors locked in: 276m to GEYLANG METHODIST SCHOOL (PRIMARY) and 324m (~4-min walk) to Aljunied MRT (Exit B). Strictly within the P1 1km zone, plus walkable to the nearest MRT entrance. This is the non-negotiable demand anchor — kiasu parents AND yield-chasing investors are both your buyers.
- Healthy transaction liquidity: 57 resale transactions in the past 12 months — wide exit pool, easier to price-discover.
- Hot resale demand: Demand pulse 93/100 — 5.6% annual turnover (57 resales/12mo). Units turn over fast; easy to find buyers when you exit.
- Deep future upgrader pool: Live count: 11 HDB blocks within 2km cross the 5-year MOP between 2025 and 2028 (of 416 HDB blocks total within 2km). These upgraders are your most natural buyers when you exit.
What to watch out for
- District price gap is wide: New launch PSF is +38% above the 5–10 year resale median in Geylang / Eunos. Market needs ~8 years of growth to match the entry price.
Who Sims Urban Oasis suits
- Buyers who prioritise a central, well-connected address
- Yield investors — ~3.9% gross is workable; favour larger unit types

Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers hunting deep relative value — the market has already priced in most of the story
- Short-term flippers — stamp duty + agent fees demand a 5-year minimum hold
- Buyers wanting a guaranteed top-tier primary within 1km walking distance
Huat Kueh says
Top 2% of D14 by resale volume. Buyers always got. Steady lah, not flashy but won't trap you.
