Florence Regency, a privatised HUDC estate within Hougang, received three submissions at the close of the public tender exercise for the collective sale of the property. However, the collective sale committee was unable to award the tender to the top bidder as the bid price was below that of the property’s valuation by an independent valuer, according to marketing agent JLL.
Submitted at the close of the tender, the independent valuation report conducted by Colliers International valued Florence Regency at $629 million. While the highest bid for Florence Regency in the tender exercise exceeded its reserve price of $600 million, it fell below Colliers International’s valuation.
According to JLL, the marketing agent will be re-approaching those interested in Florence Regency to see if any of the potential buyers will make an offer matching or above the valuation of $629 million.
