Under certain circumstances. For example, in a very slow market, when the project has already TOP and it is left with some units which the developer wants the quickly sell.

These are likely the leftover units...

Yes, developers are doing a business. It makes no sense for them to negotiate for their choice units. They may make other buyers angry if they do so.

Sometimes, developers invite some of their loyal customers (people who bought their projects before) for their soft launch, during which the developer sells directly without going through any agent and hence gives a few % additional discount. But the units sold during these soft launch may not be good units.

Some developers use their own agents, others engage property agents.

I am quite particular about beams. I dun think I would buy uncompleted development.

Completed development may have many beams covered by false ceiling, or sewage pipe over the headboard ....

I have never bought property directly from developer. Can we negotiate the price?

Of course you can.

Some agents appointed by developers at launch site also openly say they can try help asking for more discount from developer if you are really keen like ready to write a cheque. Agents hope to close the deal get commission and developers want to move the units to reduce holding cost. It is a tight margin business these days, no more people queuing up overnite to snap up units without looking at show house.

I think it also depend in who is the developer. I heard that you can forget about nego if it is those big name one like CDL, capitaland, Keppel land, UOL etc


If it is those smaller one, there might still be a chance.
