For Those Who Don’t Want to Wait Years for a New Launch to TOP

Skip the Wait and Secure a Brand New Condo That's Move-In Ready in Months

Discover the Third Path where you get the keys to a new launch without the 4-year wait or the massive renovation costs of an older resale

Here’s How Mark & Sandy Skipped the Wait

🏠 Spent 1.5 years hunting for a resale unit, got rejected on every offer they made

🏠 Lease was ending soon, no time for major renovations

🏠 Found a developer balance unit at The Myst instead, TOP'ing in 2027

🏠 Got the huge living room Mark wanted, close to their offices and kids' school bus route

🏠 Paid the developer directly and  they're the first owners

I have more case studies like this. Some may be closer to your situation than you'd think.

Why Wait for “Someday”… When Your Family Could Be Home Sooner

Most owners dream about moving into their new place "one day."

But with launches, "one day" often means waiting 3 to 4 years. By then, your kids will be older, your needs may have changed, and you may look back wishing you had acted sooner.

That's where balance units come in.

A balance unit isn't a resale, and it's DEFINITELY not someone else's leftover.

It's an unsold unit still held directly by the developer, in a project that's already launched. Some are already completed (TOP'd), so you can walk in and see the actual unit, not just a showflat.

Others are just months from TOP.

Instead of waiting years, you could be stepping into your home much sooner, with zero renovation dust, no construction noise, and no delays.

And no ex-owner to pay a premium to.

Imagine:

  • Decorating your child’s room this year, not when they’re already in primary school

  • Hosting CNY in your own condo next year, instead of saying “we’re still waiting for TOP”

  • Coming home every day to a space that feels fresh, modern, and yours — without reno dust, noise, or delays

The only trade-off?

Balance unit prices are usually a little higher than the original launch price, and buyers know this.

But for many, it's a small premium compared to renting for 3–4 years, paying a resale premium to an ex-owner, or delaying their lifestyle.

What they're really buying is time, peace of mind, and the certainty of being the first owner.

Why Balance Units Are So Limited

Here's the catch: balance units don't get re-released like a new launch.

Once a project sells out, that's it. There's no next batch.

The best-facing stacks, the functional layouts, the ones with unblocked views, they're usually the first to go. Most are snapped up during or right after the launch weekend.

And the numbers don’t lie. 

👉 As of Q1 2026, Singapore has around 16,200 unsold private homes. Only 124 of them are in completed, TOP'd projects.

Almost every other unsold home is still years from being move-in ready.

That means if you want a brand new home you can walk into and see today, the pool of options is razor-thin, and shrinking with every launch weekend.

If you wait, you don't just risk paying more later. You risk missing the project entirely.

About Me

Hi, I'm Elle from Holistic Home Hunter.

I know how frustrating it feels to wait years for a new launch to TOP, or to settle for an older resale that needs another six-figure renovation.

Many owners I meet are caught in that same dilemma. 👉 Do you wait, or do you compromise? 👈

That's why I specialise in balance units.

They give you a third path most people overlook: a brand new condo, sold directly by the developer, that's move-in ready much sooner, without the endless wait and without paying a premium to an ex-owner.

Over the years, I've guided Singaporeans through this exact process using my F.I.R.S.T. Framework. This helps me pinpoint the right units in the best stacks and layouts, so you don't just buy a home, you buy confidence that you made the right move.

I believe every homeowner deserves to upgrade without regret, without stress, and without being pressured into the wrong choice.

My role is to make the journey clear, calm, and safe for you.

Ready to See Which Balance Units Fit You?

Balance units are limited and unpredictable. The best stacks and layouts go first, and once a project sells out, they don't come back.

✅ Shortlist balance units that fit your budget and timing
✅ See which units have already TOP'd so you can view the actual space

If you're planning to move in 2026, this is your chance to do it right, with a home that's brand new, ready much sooner, and yours as the first owner.
