Coastal Cabana is a genuinely launched 748-unit Executive Condominium at Jalan Loyang Besar in Pasir Ris, with sales beginning on 17 January 2026. Unlike an unawarded land site, it has actual apartment transactions: the launch weekend saw 498 units taken up at an average reported price of about S$1,734 per square foot, while URA’s developer-sales reporting shows 504 units sold by the end of January. At the end of September 2026, the cumulative reported total was 626 of 748 units, about 84%, leaving 122 not recorded as sold at that snapshot. These figures have different cutoffs and should not be mistaken for a guarantee about live availability today.
Coastal Cabana is on a 99-year site awarded in August 2024 to a Qingjian-led consortium for S$557 million, with 748 actual apartments compared with the government’s earlier estimate of about 710. Because the land tender closed on 1 August 2024, the original new-EC rules apply: a five-year Minimum Occupation Period calculated from TOP, full privatisation generally ten years after TOP, and the older S$16,000 new-EC household-income ceiling. The site is near Pasir Ris Park and Downtown East, but waterfront setting, purchase price, school access and expected 2028 TOP must all be evaluated carefully at the actual unit level. This guide separates verified 2026 sales, financing and legal rules from speculative investment claims.
- Coastal Cabana EC: Jalan Loyang Besar, Pasir Ris, total 748 actual units
- Developer-led sales began 17 January 2026; not an HDB BTO ballot

- September survey balance: 122 units not yet recorded as sold at that dated snapshot; not a live booking guarantee
- January 2026 median price across that month’s sales was S$1,790 psf, distinct from weekend average
- September 2026 median of that month’s reported sales was around S$1,811 psf

1. Coastal Cabana is already in retail sales, not just a land plan
Coastal Cabana differs from many future housing sites because it is a named EC project with an actual consumer sales launch. Interested eligible households can assess real apartments through authorised developer channels, subject to current stock and eligibility. This is a more advanced stage than a government land award that has not yet produced a building plan or retail price schedule.
The project launched for sale on 17 January 2026, creating substantial initial demand. That news is meaningful because it reflects buyer behaviour rather than only a developer’s estimate of potential unit count. However, sales status can change between a developer report, a property portal and the date someone contacts the seller.
A family must still understand the EC scheme before visiting a showroom. An EC is a private-developer property subject to HDB’s initial eligibility and occupation conditions. It cannot simply be bought on identical terms to an unrestricted private condo, nor applied for through a regular HDB BTO ballot.
The useful immediate action is to verify current authorised available units and prices with the developer while checking household eligibility and bank finance. An old property headline saying a certain number remains is a dated snapshot, not a standing reservation in the buyer’s name.
2. The January 2026 launch-weekend sales and the URA count
News reporting from 18 January 2026 described 498 of the 748 units taken up during the first launch weekend, with an average price of about S$1,734 per square foot. URA’s developer-sales data for the full month subsequently recorded 504 sold by the end of January. Those numbers refer to different time windows and are not necessarily contradictory.
The pricing measures differ too. The first-weekend average describes the reported pricing of those early bookings, while the full-January median of S$1,790 per square foot describes the midpoint of sales reported in that month. Average and median are different statistics, and the exact mix of apartment sizes and floors can change either measure.
Buyers should therefore avoid choosing whichever number appears lower and treating it as the current asking price of any available unit. A unit’s actual cost depends on its approved size, floor and layout, plus the contractual offer. Historical aggregate statistics cannot quote that.
A strong housing guide preserves the date and definition of each number. This helps readers learn what the market did without creating an imaginary 2027 price list from a January 2026 news report.
3. What 626 of 748 sold by September really means
According to the URA developer-sales survey figures summarised in reports updated through September 2026, 626 Coastal Cabana apartments were recorded as sold out of 748 launched. That is roughly eighty-four percent. The arithmetic difference is 122 units not recorded as sold at that snapshot, but it does not establish that 122 remain available for any household today.
Developers report monthly transactions and options, and cumulative totals can move with cancellations or changes in reporting. Some units may be reserved, withdrawn or purchased after the snapshot. A buyer must confirm real-time availability directly through the authorised developer or sales agent before making plans.
This distinction matters especially in high-demand EC launches, where a familiar unit type may no longer be offered even though the project as a whole has some remaining inventory. A household needs an actual price and layout that fits its budget, not merely a percentage of total stock.
The correct way to use September’s figure is as historical evidence of take-up. It shows a substantial proportion sold during 2026 while leaving the current individual unit choice unverified until a fresh authorised inquiry.
4. URA caveats and monthly developer sales are different records
Private property market statistics are published through more than one route. URA’s monthly developer-sales reports count units launched and sold as reported by developers. Transaction caveats document lodged property transactions, which can have different recording dates and classifications. Comparing the two without careful definitions can give inconsistent totals.
For Coastal Cabana, some transaction trackers show caveats continuing into October 2026, while the complete October developer-sales aggregate was not yet published at the early-November research checkpoint. A caveat count should not simply replace September’s cumulative developer-sales figure and be described as the official live inventory.
Prices in the caveat series can also differ from a monthly developer-sales median because their selection and timing may not match exactly. A recorded transaction price is evidence of a particular deal, not necessarily what an unsold apartment is currently offered for.
The best reader practice is to label the source, period and measure in every table. For a purchase decision, the authorised developer’s present unit list is the relevant availability source, while official records help explain historical market activity.
5. The original 2024 land award and the 710 estimate
HDB’s August 2024 final tender result awarded the Jalan Loyang Besar EC site to CNQC Realty (Progressive), Forsea Residence and ZACD Laserblue for S$557 million. The parcel measures 28,405.5 square metres and has maximum permissible gross floor area of 71,014 square metres, under a 99-year lease. The original official estimate was around 710 housing units.
The later Coastal Cabana project contains 748 actual apartments. This difference is a normal reminder that government land yield estimates can be refined through the developer’s design and approvals. The 710 and 748 figures refer to different stages, not necessarily to an unreported extra development next door.
The site information also helps identify the correct EC. Jalan Loyang Besar has other housing and recreational uses, so relying only on the general Pasir Ris name could create confusion with an unrelated project or resale listing.
For buyers, the legal retail project supersedes the original estimated unit count for unit selection. The land record remains valuable for the purchase framework and tender cutoff, which in turn determines some of the EC’s occupation restrictions.
6. Why Coastal Cabana keeps the older five-year MOP
HDB’s newer EC policy gives a ten-year MOP to projects whose land tender closed on or after 8 May 2026. Coastal Cabana’s land tender closed on 1 August 2024, almost two years earlier. It therefore follows the older five-year MOP from Temporary Occupation Permit under the applicable rules.
This does not permit a resale five years after January 2026 retail booking or August 2024 land award. The MOP clock begins from TOP, when the building receives permission for occupation. If the project receives TOP around 2028 as the current pipeline estimates, the ordinary first MOP end would be around 2033, subject to the actual TOP and governing conditions.
The distinction matters to households tempted by a short-term investment narrative. They may have to wait several years for construction and then live in the EC for five years before a normal open-market resale. Whole-unit rental during the MOP is restricted.
The sensible purchase rationale is to choose a home the family can afford and use throughout that period. A shorter MOP than the newest EC cohort offers flexibility, but it does not make the EC suitable for every household or guarantee capital appreciation.
7. Full privatisation ten years after TOP
Older-cohort ECs generally become fully private ten years from TOP. Once their five-year MOP is satisfied, the units can be sold to eligible Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents during the remaining interval before full privatisation. Only after the ten-year mark does the wider unrestricted private-buyer pool become relevant under the applicable conditions.
This differs from newer EC sites, which have ten-year MOPs and fifteen-year full-privatisation timelines. A 2026 retail launch can therefore belong to the older cohort while a different EC marketed in 2027 belongs to the newer one. The land tender date is the legal dividing line.
Buyers should not equate MOP completion with unrestricted foreign-buyer eligibility. Those are different events. Neither one promises a particular future resale price, and market factors can change over the intervening years.
A family planning an eventual upgrade should use both dates and the actual projected cash flow. Occupation rules are part of the property being bought, not minor footnotes to an attractive seafront location.
8. The S$16,000 EC household income ceiling
The revised S$18,000 income ceiling for new ECs applies to land tenders closing from 24 August 2026. Coastal Cabana’s 2024 tender closed before that threshold, so the older S$16,000 ceiling applies to eligible new-unit purchasers under its policy cohort. A couple earning more than S$16,000 should not assume it qualifies simply because it read a general national headline about expanded EC eligibility.
The full application also depends on qualifying family nucleus, citizenship, age, private property ownership and previous housing subsidies. Passing the income ceiling does not establish eligibility automatically, nor does it guarantee an acceptable bank loan.
The project may be already selling, so a prospective buyer should request accurate current requirements from the authorised developer and review HDB’s current EC eligibility material. If circumstances have changed since an earlier expression of interest, fresh documents may be needed.
A mortgage should also be affordable under the household’s actual living costs. The maximum legally allowed income is a qualification boundary, not a recommendation to spend every available dollar on a home.
9. The EC-specific CPF Housing Grant and other costs
HDB provides a CPF Housing Grant for qualifying new-EC first-timer buyers, potentially up to S$30,000 depending on citizenship, income and prior subsidy status. This differs from the Enhanced CPF Housing Grant for eligible HDB flat purchases. A family should not subtract a public BTO’s maximum EHG from Coastal Cabana’s authorised unit price.
A grant is part of a wider financing arrangement, not unrestricted spending money. Applicants need to plan bank borrowing, CPF funds, downpayment, buyer’s stamp duty, legal costs and ongoing ownership obligations. The EC developer’s payment stages must also be understood before booking.
The project’s private common facilities can generate maintenance charges that continue after the flat is occupied. Even a household that can meet the first downpayment may find the ongoing cost uncomfortable if it ignores property tax, insurance and essential expenses.
Use a complete budget with an emergency reserve. The right purchase is one the family can sustain through interest-rate changes and ordinary life demands, rather than a property that appears affordable only after applying an unverified grant or overly optimistic loan estimate.
10. The seaside setting near Pasir Ris Park
Coastal Cabana sits along Jalan Loyang Besar near Pasir Ris Park and the coast. This gives the project a distinctive setting for families who enjoy walking, cycling and outdoor leisure. The area includes public recreation and a landscape different from dense business districts.
However, a seafront address does not mean every apartment has a permanent unobstructed water view. Individual outlook depends on floor, orientation, nearby buildings and future changes. Nor does the developer own Pasir Ris Park on behalf of residents; the park remains public and subject to normal access and protection rules.
The convenience of the park must also be measured from the actual unit and entrance. A young family may value playground access, while an older person might need a shorter level path with places to rest. A spectacular view can have less practical benefit than a reliable grocery and healthcare route.
A household should visit the area at different times and consider weather and daily movement. Coastal scenery can enrich a comfortable home but should not be the sole reason to take on a financially stretched mortgage.
11. Downtown East, food and family recreation
Downtown East and nearby Pasir Ris amenities provide recreation, entertainment, shops and food choices in the wider neighbourhood. For some buyers, this can reduce the need to travel far for family activities. The project’s location may be particularly attractive to households whose children enjoy nearby park and leisure spaces.
Yet the existence of a large leisure complex does not guarantee cheap childcare, an affordable grocery shop within easy walking distance or a school place. Families should map everyday needs separately from weekend attractions. A household might visit a recreation venue once a month but buy groceries several times a week.
Access routes also matter in hot or wet weather. A distance described as nearby can involve crossings, sidewalks or a bus journey. People using wheelchairs or strollers may have different preferences from fit adults.
A good property comparison includes actual operating services, travel time and how often the household would use them. The long-term appeal of a location comes from daily usefulness, not simply the number of attractions listed on a brochure.
12. Is it genuinely close to Pasir Ris MRT?
Pasir Ris MRT is an established East–West Line station serving the town, but Coastal Cabana is located along Jalan Loyang Besar rather than directly at its station entrance. A buyer should not infer an effortless five-minute commute from the fact that both share the Pasir Ris name. The full journey may involve buses, walking or cycling, depending on route and mobility.
The wider area is also undergoing transport development, including future Cross Island Line connections and town-centre improvements. Those may change routes over time, but they should be marked as planned until officially operating. A family whose work depends on punctual arrival should rely on current transport for its immediate plan.
For people travelling to other regions, transfers and service hours can matter more than the first mile alone. A household with two adults working in different parts of Singapore should compare both commutes.
The correct evaluation uses the actual block entrance, current LTA routes and realistic travel times. A scenic address should not be presented as directly MRT-integrated without evidence.
13. The projected 2028 TOP: forecast versus legal completion
URA’s pipeline and property trackers currently indicate a 2028 expected completion for Coastal Cabana. That can be useful for a household’s initial planning, but it is not the same as a guarantee that all buyers will collect keys on a specified day. Actual TOP, the developer’s contractual delivery date and key-collection notices govern the lived timeline.
A family buying during 2026 may still have years to wait. During that period it needs accommodation, finances and school or childcare arrangements that work independently of the projected handover. A delay can affect cash flow if the household assumes rent ends at a particular month.
A buyer should read the Sale and Purchase Agreement and obtain clear explanations of milestones and remedies where relevant. Marketing shorthand such as TOP 2028 should never replace the legal documents.
The older five-year MOP will begin from the actual TOP, not from the predicted year. Therefore a resale or rental-income strategy based on an estimated 2033 MOP end also needs to be treated as conditional until the project’s real occupation date is established.
14. The difference between new EC and resale EC
Coastal Cabana is a new-EC developer project. New-unit buyers face household income, family nucleus, citizenship, private-property ownership and previous subsidy eligibility requirements. A resale EC that has already satisfied MOP is instead treated as private property for the resale transaction, with a different eligible buyer framework.
HDB’s resale EC guidance allows eligible single persons or families and generally has no monthly household income ceiling, subject to the project age and citizenship restrictions. A resale buyer also does not receive a new-EC CPF Housing Grant simply because the building originally operated as an EC.
This matters when a household is priced out of a new launch or has a family arrangement that does not qualify for new EC. An older resale EC might be legally available even when the new EC is not, though the financing and cost may differ substantially.
The right comparison must use real individual property prices and the full legal conditions. An eligible resale transaction and a subsidised new-EC booking should not be treated as identical routes because they share the term Executive Condominium.
15. HDB upgrader considerations at Coastal Cabana
An HDB homeowner considering Coastal Cabana needs to understand the upgrade sequence. It may have to satisfy the current flat’s MOP before applying for a new EC and account for prior housing subsidies, any resale levy and property ownership limits. After collecting EC keys, the household generally must dispose of its existing HDB flat interest within six months.
The current HDB sale proceeds may need to repay the mortgage and refund CPF principal used plus accrued interest. These amounts affect cash available for the EC purchase. A buyer who assumes the whole HDB sale price is immediately available can underestimate its funding gap.
Progressive or deferred payment arrangements, where legitimately offered under this older cohort, change when money is due. They require clear assessment of the family’s bank financing, interim living expenses and emergency savings.
The right plan coordinates the EC purchase, construction and later HDB sale without leaving a household unable to meet its obligations. A popular launch should not create pressure to skip a basic cash-flow check.
16. The planned facilities and maintenance budget
Coastal Cabana markets condominium-style facilities and residential layouts, but the decisive source for what a buyer receives is the authorised project plan and contract. A swimming pool, garden, fitness space or security system may support quality of life, yet all require maintenance and recurring management costs.
A household should ask how often it will use particular facilities. A family with small children may value play space and pools, while older residents may prioritise lift reliability, shade and accessible pathways. Someone who travels frequently may not receive much value from an extensive clubhouse if that contributes heavily to monthly fees.
Actual management contributions should be included in the mortgage budget along with property tax, insurance, utilities and reserves. A lower headline purchase price does not guarantee lower cost of ownership if recurring expenses are high.
The best buyer decision combines internal apartment functionality, genuine shared rights and total long-term financial obligations. Decorative renderings are useful for orientation but should not replace the project’s prescribed legal disclosures.
17. School proximity is not guaranteed admission
Families may investigate schools and childcare around Jalan Loyang Besar and Pasir Ris. Proximity can reduce daily travel, but school registration and childcare availability follow separate criteria. MOE’s Primary 1 rules, address requirements and available places are independent of an EC purchase.
A child might reach school age before the projected 2028 TOP. Parents cannot assume the future apartment address already satisfies school-registration requirements when the building is not occupied. The current home and the family’s actual caregiving arrangements remain important.
The developer’s facilities also do not automatically include guaranteed childcare places. A preschool elsewhere in the neighbourhood has its own operator, enrolment and hours. Families need a realistic routine for the years before and after moving.
A good EC choice supports education over time without promising admissions outcomes. Parents should measure actual transport, cost and life stage instead of using a marketing map as if it were a school placement decision.
18. How to understand monthly sale-price medians
A developer-sales report showing a median price per square foot is evidence of what sold during a period, not a quote for every unit currently available. September 2026’s reported median of around S$1,811 psf reflects the mix of transactions recorded that month. It does not mean a larger, higher-floor apartment has exactly the same asking rate.
Unit prices vary by size, layout, floor, orientation and timing. A median could rise because different types of homes sold rather than because every unit increased in price. Comparisons across months therefore need care and should not be treated as a perfectly controlled price index.
For a buyer, the actual final contract price and total purchase funding matter more. A family’s affordability calculation should include downpayment, bank loan, stamp duty, grant if eligible and future maintenance. A historical median can supply context but not solve the mortgage.
If someone claims the project is guaranteed to rise at the monthly median growth rate, that would be a speculative extrapolation. A responsible guide makes uncertainty clear and directs the buyer to verified unit-level terms.
19. Why an EC launch percentage is not a resale-profit forecast
Strong sales at Coastal Cabana show buyer interest in the initial developer offer. They do not establish what the homes will be worth after construction and the five-year MOP. Market conditions in 2033 or later will depend on interest rates, competing supply, income and changes in the surrounding town.
The resale eligibility calendar also matters. Owners must satisfy the original EC occupation requirements before making an ordinary open-market sale, and the buyer pool remains restricted until full privatisation. Future appreciation cannot be treated as an entitlement gained through a popular new launch.
A household taking a large bank loan should test whether it can make payments even if resale prices stay flat or fall. It should also consider the cost of any family relocation it might want before the MOP ends.
The most defensible purchase rationale is that the property will meet real housing needs and remain financially manageable throughout occupation. A high sell-through rate is useful news, not permission to ignore risk.
20. How Coastal Cabana differs from Rivelle Tampines
Rivelle Tampines is another actual EC launch in 2026, but it sits at Tampines Street 95 and has its own developer, unit mix, prices and reported sales results. Coastal Cabana is along Jalan Loyang Besar with a seaside Pasir Ris setting. Both are older-policy EC cohorts based on their land tender dates, yet their transport and family-life trade-offs differ.
A buyer who sees a report that Rivelle sold out should not conclude Coastal Cabana has no stock, or vice versa. Each project requires current developer-level availability verification. Similarly, another EC’s launch-average price per square foot is not the actual price of a chosen Coastal Cabana apartment.
Compare the complete work, school and caregiving journeys, not simply whether both are in eastern Singapore. A Pasir Ris address may be attractive to a household with relatives nearby while another family values the Tampines business and transport environment.
The right shortlist records actual available units, payment, MOP, maintenance and suitable living space. A coastal view is one factor, not a substitute for the practical requirements of a family home.
21. A dated 2027/2028 Coastal Cabana tracker
Begin with the original land tender: 1 August 2024 close, S$557 million award, estimated 710 units. Then record the authorised final project: 748 units, developer identity and January 2026 retail sales opening. These figures belong to different stages and should not be added together as though they are two separate housing estates.
Use dated sales snapshots: January launch weekend 498, January full-month 504, September cumulative 626, and later monthly URA updates when published. Keep caveat records in a separate column to avoid double counting and avoid calling a recorded total live inventory.
Add the buyer-policy cohort: five-year MOP from actual TOP, full privatisation after ten years, S$16,000 new-EC income ceiling and any grant eligibility. Keep the projected 2028 TOP explicitly marked expected until a later authorised confirmation.
Finally, attach household needs: size, total purchase cost, work travel, school timing, care network and accommodation until keys. A tracker should turn market news into a clear decision process instead of simply repeating a successful launch headline.
22. Conclusion: real sales, real restrictions and a real home decision
Coastal Cabana is a substantial launched EC in Pasir Ris, with 748 apartments and documented 2026 take-up. The official land history explains why its buyers follow the older five-year EC MOP and S$16,000 income ceiling. The seaside setting near Pasir Ris Park provides genuine lifestyle appeal for some households.
But a dated sales total is not today’s guaranteed availability, and a historical monthly median is not a unit price offered to every buyer. The projected 2028 TOP requires further project-specific verification and does not bring immediate resale eligibility.
Families should evaluate actual authorised units and full financing, check qualifying household rules and plan for the time until occupation. Those who need housing sooner may find a resale or other currently available option more practical.
Useful 2027/2028 release coverage connects present market information with the long-term responsibilities of living in the home. It helps readers choose a suitable residence without turning sales percentages into speculative promises about wealth or timing.
Practical purchase and family situations
An eligible couple asking whether 122 units are still available
URA’s September 2026 developer-sales snapshot recorded 626 of 748 sold, leaving 122 not recorded as sold at that date. That is not a live availability guarantee; bookings and cancellations can change. The couple should request the authorised developer’s current list of suitable layouts and prices before planning funds or accommodation around a particular unit.
A household earning S$17,000 that wants new Coastal Cabana
The project’s land tender closed in August 2024, so the older S$16,000 new-EC household-income ceiling applies, not the revised S$18,000 for sites closing from August 2026. The household should assess eligibility accurately and consider suitable private or resale alternatives if it does not meet new-EC criteria.
A family expecting a resale in January 2031
The five-year EC MOP begins when the building receives TOP, not when sales started in January 2026. With TOP currently projected for 2028, ordinary resale would be expected much later, subject to actual completion and rules. A household should not assume it can sell five years after booking.
A buyer confused by average S$1,734 and median S$1,790
The reported launch-weekend average and the January full-month median refer to different samples and statistical measures. Neither is a guaranteed asking price today. The actual unit’s size, floor and layout determine its authorised contract price, while the household should budget for all duties and ongoing costs.
Parents who want to live beside Pasir Ris Park
The park is an attractive public facility, but not every apartment will face the sea or have a direct private beach entrance. The family should inspect the chosen unit and safe routes to the park, along with childcare, groceries and commuting needs. Nature is valuable when daily life remains practical and affordable.
An HDB upgrader considering the developer payment plan
The buyer needs to review the actual payment options, bank loan, CPF refunds on the existing flat and any resale levy. The older EC cohort may permit a Deferred Payment Scheme if the developer actually offers it, but it must not be assumed. A cash-flow plan should remain feasible during construction and after key collection.
A first-time buyer applying for a S$120,000 EHG
That maximum belongs to the separate HDB Enhanced CPF Housing Grant route. New ECs use an EC-specific CPF Housing Grant that may be up to S$30,000 for eligible families. A budget based on the wrong grant could be substantially understated and should be corrected before booking.
A couple needing accommodation within twelve months
Coastal Cabana is a project under development, not a completed rental home. A household with an urgent move should explore legitimate ready resale or rental properties while monitoring Coastal Cabana’s actual completion. An expected 2028 TOP is not an immediate key date.
A family with an older person who needs rail access
Pasir Ris MRT is not directly at the Coastal Cabana gate. Assess bus and walking routes, shelter, crossings and realistic travel to medical appointments. A scenic location may be unsuitable if daily care journeys are difficult, even when the apartment itself is well designed.
A buyer assessing the EC’s maintenance and facilities
Private common facilities create recurring costs, and the final actual unit and management rules control what is included. The buyer should understand service charges, parking, lifts and accessible common space as part of the total budget. A weekend-use pool may be less important than reliable daily transport for some families.
A single buyer who does not meet the new EC family nucleus
New EC purchase eligibility is different from private condo or later resale EC eligibility. An individual single adult cannot automatically book new Coastal Cabana alone. A resale EC after MOP may have different permitted buyer arrangements, but any actual transaction must satisfy the applicable age and citizenship rules.
An investor projecting guaranteed price appreciation
The January–September sell-through data demonstrates sales activity, not a certain future resale value. The MOP, full-privatisation schedule, interest rates and market supply all matter. A homeowner should be able to afford and use the EC without relying on capital gains after the restriction period ends.
A household comparing Coastal Cabana with Bayshore Plus
Bayshore Plus flats are public HDB housing with their own income, grant, resale and subsidy-recovery rules. Coastal Cabana is an EC, with different eligibility, bank financing and full-privatisation milestones. Both may appeal to families in the east but should not share a combined fictitious after-grant price.
A buyer concerned about storm exposure beside the coast
The seaside setting makes orientation, shade and weather comfort worth examining, but an online photo cannot establish technical performance or a permanent view. Inspect approved plans, actual unit location and the developer’s construction and maintenance information. Treat any promise of zero heat or flood risk with caution.
Someone seeing an October caveat count higher than September’s sold count
Caveat registrations and URA monthly developer-sales totals use different reporting processes and time cutoffs. They should not be added together as though they represent separate purchases or treated as live stock. Record each source and date independently and ask the developer about currently selectable units.
A family planning a school change in 2028
An expected TOP year is not necessarily the date an address can be used for all MOE registration purposes. School admissions have separate eligibility and address rules. The family should maintain a workable current education and housing arrangement until actual possession and registration conditions are confirmed.

504 sold, with a monthly median near S$1,790 psf.
How many were reported sold by September 2026?
626 of 748, about 84%, in the URA developer-sales survey.
Does that guarantee 122 units are still available now?
No. Current stock and prices must be checked with the authorised developer.
Where is the project?
Jalan Loyang Besar in Pasir Ris, near Pasir Ris Park and Downtown East.
Who developed it?
A Qingjian-led consortium with Forsea, ZACD and related participating parties.
When was the site awarded?
HDB announced the August 2024 land award at S$557 million.
What is the site’s tenure?
99 years.
Which MOP applies?
The older five-year MOP from the actual TOP date.
When does it become fully private?
Generally ten years after TOP under the older EC cohort.
What income ceiling applies to new units?
S$16,000 because the land tender closed before the August 2026 higher-ceiling cutoff.
Is the expected TOP 2028?
That is the current project-pipeline estimate, not a confirmed universal key-collection day.
Can new EC purchasers apply for EHG?
No. A separate EC CPF Housing Grant may apply depending on eligibility.
Is Pasir Ris MRT directly beneath the project?
No. Buyers should verify actual bus and walking routes.
Can owners sell after five years from booking?
No. MOP is calculated from TOP, not from the retail sale date.
Are aggregate monthly PSF figures official unit asking prices?
No. They summarise past transactions rather than today’s individual unit offer.
What is the best next step for an interested family?
Check genuine current stock, personal EC eligibility, total financing and the authorised project’s completion terms.
