Over 12000 Apply 2601 Prime Flats July Bto Exercise Nearly Half Eyeing 741 Unit Toa Payoh Ascent

The latest Build-To-Order (BTO) sales exercise in July 2025 ended last night with an overwhelming response of more than 12,000 applications for 2,601 Prime flats, resulting in an application rate of 4.7 times. These four Prime flats, consisting of Toa Payoh Ascent with 741 units, Alexandra Vista with 609 units, Alexandra Peaks with 498 units, and Clementi Emerald with 753 units, were highly sought after by home seekers.

Toa Payoh Ascent, strategically located at the junction of Toa Payoh Rise and Braddell Rise, received almost half of the Prime flat applications. With its twin 40-storey towers comprising of 195 two-room flexi, 78 three-room, and 468 four-room flats, this project is highly attractive to potential homeowners.

Apart from the Prime flats, another 22,000 applications were submitted for the 5,547 BTO flats offered in eight different projects by the Housing and Development Board (HDB). This translates to an overall application rate of almost four times the number of available flats. Additionally, the 4,662 Sale of Balance (SBF) flats attracted more than 17,500 applicants.

According to Kelvin Fong, CEO of PropNex, the latest BTO exercise had a higher response rate compared to the February 2025 exercise, which had an overall application rate of 2.6 times. He attributes this to the record-high proportion of Prime flats in attractive locations and the introduction of priority access for singles who want to live near their parents.
