CompanyIntroduction
Space market analysis refers to a consultative and cooperative approach to provide the best accommodation for redeveloping or relocating a place. In context with Apartment Service, it has led the way to openly promote awareness of a sector (Haila, 2015). It works as an agent who realises the needs of customers for smart data, dynamic pricing and cost control. The present report is going to reveal a space market analysis of service apartments. It is based on a case study on integrated development at 88 Market Street in Singapore.
Case Study
As per the present scenario, in Singapore, three main companies have formed a joint venture for redeveloping Golden Shoe Park (GSCP) into a landmark integrated development in Raffles Place. It includes CapitaLand Limited, CapitaLand Commercial Trust (CCT) and Mitsubishi Estate Co. Ltd (MEC). In order to form a joint venture, these companies have made an agreement where CapitaLand and CCT both will hold a 45% interest, whereas MEC will get 10% only. For this purpose, they have also set up their office and service residence components, named Glory Office Trust and Glory SR Trust respectively (Hin David Ho, Rengarajan and Glascock, 2014). It is estimated that for total development, near about S$1.82 billion is required, under which each business partner will make investments as per proportion of their respective interests. Further, for obtaining approval from governmental authorities to redevelop GSCP into a mix-use development, CCT has also submitted plans. After receiving approvals from regulatory bodies and notifications from authorities of Singapore Land Authorities, CCT has assessed the financial feasibility of redevelopment and decided to carry out the project through a joint venture.
As per this project, after redevelopment, this 51-storey GSCP will rise to a height of 280m. This will raise to 29 features of premium Grade A where approx. 635,000 square feet an office space is available on the top floor. Further, an 8-storey i.e. 299 unit serviced residence is managed by The Ascott Ltd. where, five floors of the car park have 350 lots, 165 bicycle parking lots, 10 motorcycle lots and 12000 square feet for ancillary retail space. This development will boast of a Green Oasis with a height of near about 30 m, it connects four contiguous and connected floors of landscaped, open-air and technology-enabled areas. Here tenants can enjoy the environment of shared space for meetings, conversation, wellness programmes and other activities. While, on other levels of the podium of development, there will be a food centre which is owned by the Ministry of Environment and Water Resources. From 1 August 2017 to 2021, it is estimated that the first half of the project related to integrated development will be completed.

According to this figure, it has examined that deposited property as of 31 Dec 2017, which includes the valuation of investment properties is S$10,761.0 million. After the issue of a temporary occupation permit (TOP), within five years, the purchasing rate may be higher than the base price. In this regard, from the estimated total development cost i.e. near about S$1.82 billion, approx. 52% of it is required for DP (Differential Premium) and land-related costs which are to be funded by joint venture partners. Along with this, they will also acquire S$161.1 million from CCT which is assumed as 10% above from average valuation of this product with a redevelopment potential of S$146.5 million. Further, at market valuation, acquiring CapitalLand's and MEC's interest in Glory Office Trust is subjected to a minimum price (Khoo-Lattimore and Prayag, 2015). This is based on total development cost excluding financial cost to the office. With this assistance, ancillary retail components less net property income attributable to Glory Office Trust is compounded at 6% per annum. Over a period of five years, after obtaining the temporary occupation permit for redevelopment, CCT may exercise the call option. In addition to this, there is a drag-along right granted to CCT and CapitaLand over units of MEC in Glory SR Trust, in the same period of five years.
Conclusion
This assignment has summarised that the redevelopment of Golden Shoe Car Park will raise its height on par with the tallest building in Raffles Place. It will provide extremely beneficial accommodation for offices and tenants who can share spaces for business meetings, conversations and other activities. With the support of governmental authorities and ministries, joint venture partners can gain success in implementing their projects more successfully.
