Among the condos and apartments that hit a new high in terms of psf-price between April 12 and 19, Daintree Residence achieved the highest psf-price transacted with the sale of a three-bedroom unit. The 1,055 sq ft apartment on the fifth floor was sold for $2.32 million on April 12, which works out to $2,199 psf.

This inches past the condo’s former record of $2,166 psf, which was set in February when a similar three-bedroom unit spanning 1,055 sq ft was sold for $2.29 million.

The unit sold on April 12 was purchased by the seller from the developer in December 2019 for $1.9 million, or $1,801 psf. Thus, the seller made a profit of about $420,000, making it the third-most profitable resale transaction logged to date at the condo. The most profitable deal to date at Daintree Residences occurred in March 2024 when the resale of a 1,055 sq ft, three-bedroom unit resulted in a profit of about $529,000.
