Aside from JadeScape’s central location, along with a plethora of entertainment and dining options, it sounds promising for local and foreign property investors due to Singapore’s foreign residents’ growth. As of Q3 2019, Singapore’s non-residents – which include dependants, international students and people working in the country – rose to 1.68 million.
Not only that, JadeScape’s gross rental yield is at 3.2% should you decide to rent out your property, this is what you can expect as your return on investment before taxes, maintenance fees and other costs.
What makes JadeScape standout amidst the property glut in Singapore? And why 62.5% of its units released was instantly snapped by 2 pm during its launch weekend?
4 Reasons to Choose JadeScape for Your Next Investment in Singapore Property Market:
1. Gross Rental Yield
A 3.2% gross rental yield is considerably good compared with the rest of the South East Asia; Hong Kong is at 2.35% while Japan is at 2.66%.
How did we get 3.2%?
(Gross rental income for 12 months/ purchase price of the property) x 100= gross rental yield.
Calculating the Gross Rental Yield for JadeScape

Gross Rental Income of $2,300 x 12 months= $27,600/purchase price at $860,000= 0.032*100= 3.2%
2. Increasing Rental Price
Singapore’s overall rents for condos in the Rest of Central Region increased by 2.8% and the country’s rental prices increased on a year-on-year basis as of Q3 2019.
