Published 27 July 2026 · Covers news from 26 Jul to 27 Jul
Dunearn House, the first condo in Bukit Timah's new 20,000-home estate, moved 211 of 380 units over its launch weekend, with three-bedroom types fully sold but overall take-up lagging 2026's average. Separately, SORA has fallen sharply from its 2023–2024 peak, reopening a refinancing window for HDB and condo owners.
- Dunearn House sold 55.5% (211 of 380 units) over its July 25–26 launch weekend; Three-Bedroom and Three-Bedroom + Flexi unit types sold out completely, though overall take-up trails 2026's new-launch average of 75.8% [3].
- The project is described as the first condominium in Bukit Timah's planned 20,000-home estate, making its sales performance an early indicator of buyer appetite for this emerging precinct [7].
- SORA has bottomed out near 1.14%, down sharply from a peak of approximately 4% in 2023 and 2024; Stacked Homes reports this creates a meaningful refinancing window for existing HDB and condo loan holders [5].
- URA released its 2nd Quarter 2026 real estate statistics on July 24, providing the latest official benchmark for private residential market conditions — buyers and agents are advised to review these figures directly for district-level data [8].
- A commentary piece questions the Orchard Road live-work-play revival strategy, arguing the precinct's earlier vitality stemmed from conditions that no longer exist, raising questions about the realistic uplift residential development there can expect [1].
