Tanglin Shopping Centre collective sale gets nod
(Singapore) OWNERS controlling at least 80 per cent of the share values and strata area of the freehold Tanglin Shopping Centre have given consent for its collective sale. The tender for the sale is slated to be launched around the end of this month by marketing agent ERA Realty Network. With a reserve price of $1.25 billion, it will be the biggest collective sale launched for a commercial building in the Orchard/Tanglin area. The reserve price works out to about $4,021 per sq ft of potential gross floor area - a record price if it is achieved. The assumption in the unit land price calculation is that no development charge is payable and the new owner will be able to build up to the property's existing gross floor area of 310,800 sq ft (pending verification by Urban Redevelopment Authority) - even though this slightly exceeds the maximum 287,750 sq ft allowed for the site under Master Plan 2008. Millennium & Copthorne Hotels (M&C), the London-listed hotel arm of City Developments Ltd (CDL), disclosed in June that it had signed the collective sale agreement for Tanglin Shopping Centre. M&C holds its stake in the shopping and office complex through its wholly owned subsidiary King's Tanglin Shopping Pte Ltd. The company owns 85 freehold strata retail/office units and 325 car parking lots that have been held as a long-term investment since 1981. This works out to about 34 per cent interest in the total strata area. Tanglin Shopping Centre has a freehold land area of 68,512 sq ft. Under Master Plan 2008, the site is zoned for commercial use with a 4.2 + plot ratio - the ratio of maximum potential gross floor area to land area - and a maximum height of 20 storeys. 'This will be a very attractive site for redevelopment into a super luxury residential project with a commercial or hotel tower, or residential units with a retail podium,' ERA said. 'Some developers are already eyeing the property in view of its prime location.' While market watchers agree the site is prime, they say it remains to be seen whether developers will be willing to pay the steep reserve price. The 12-storey centre comprises retail space from basement two to level six, including about two levels of medical suites; offices from levels seven to 12; and parking lots in the basement and a rear multi-storey block. |

Inactive counters but last few days saw vol up alot. Share with u an OLD article from BT (Dec 2007). Sad to say, HongFok mgt not pro-active & has done nothing on it. I m stuck with this 1 @ 71c. Business Times: Hong Fok’s Orchard site plans December 9, 2007Hong Fok’s Orchard site plans It plans to develop International Bldg site with $62m state plot it is buying By KALPANA RASHIWALA HONG FOK Corporation yesterday gave a glimpse of its plans for a commercial development on the combined site of its International Building property at Orchard Road and an adjoining 9,023 square feet plot along Claymore Hill that it plans to buy from the state for $62.35 million. Based on earlier reports, International Building, inclusive of a surface carpark at the rear, has a total land area of 45,467 sq ft. In its statement to the Singapore Exchange, Hong Fok said that unless prior written permission of the government is given, the land it plans to purchase from the state will be used together with its International Building site for the purpose of commercial development with a gross plot ratio not exceeding 6.16. Market watchers said that based on this plot ratio, the combined 54,490 sq ft site – comprising International Building, including its surface carpark, and the state plot Hong Fok plans to buy – can be developed into a commercial project with 335,660 sq ft maximum gross floor area (GFA). Assuming an 80 per cent efficiency, the net lettable area would work out to about 268,530 sq ft. Hong Fok did not elaborate on its plans for International Building, but market watchers said that it has a few options. One would be to do a full redevelopment on the enlarged site (including the state plot being purchased), involving tearing down the present 12-storey retail and office block. Another option would be to spruce up the old block and connect it to a new extension that could be developed on the new site alone, or on the new site as well as the carpark. Market watchers said that based on a full redevelopment scheme and assuming a 335,660 sq ft maximum GFA, the construction costs, fees and interest would easily amount to about $170 million. They also reckoned that Hong Fok may have to pay a development charge to the state for building a bigger project. In its release yesterday, Hong Fok said that it has accepted an offer by the Singapore Land Authority to alienate the state land on a freehold basis for $62.35 million. The offer was made following an application by Hong Fok to buy the land, and the proposed alienation is subject to several terms and conditions. Hong Fok will fund the purchase by bank borrowings. Hong Fok also owns The Concourse at Beach Road, where it is expected to develop apartments for sale. On the stock market yesterday, Hong Fok ended six cents higher at $1.33 |

Hong Fok is poised to push higher in the coming days after it broke above the 50‐ and 100‐days moving average. Stock climbed 8% to S$0.74/share. The ADX with +DMI is well above the ‐DMI suggesting uptrend is gaining momentum. Recommend buy with a short‐term target of $0.82 and stoploss below $0.69 | ||
