Money and Me: ECs are looking more attractive for first-time buyers. A Mega En bloc Wish and does leasehold change the investment case for industrial and residential properties?

Money and Me: ECs are looking more attractive for first-time buyers. A Mega En bloc Wish and does leasehold change the investment case for industrial and residential properties?

Hosted by Michelle Martin, we unpack sweeping new Executive Condominium cooling measures meant to restore affordability for first-time buyers.

Are EC's more attractive to buyers?

Would you likely sell your EC for more or less if you must stay in it for at least 10 years before selling?

Then we examine the $880 million Loyang Valley en bloc deal - the largest collective sale of 2026 - is the en bloc dream still alive or are these deals likely to be rare?

Finally, we wrap with a lesson from Automobile MegaMart, where owners raced against the clock to pay $68 million to extend a lease that was running down.

What happens when a leasehold asset approaches zero?

And what is the takeaway today - what should you as an investor understand before buying leasehold property?

Guest: Ivan Cai, Chairman, Crestbrick
