8 St Thomas condo complex is a new freehold real estate project located near the orchard shopping area, along Saint Thomas walk in district nine of Singapore. It is observed that a majority of the real estate projects in Singapore are constructed on leasehold land, with a lease duration of 99 years and there are only a few freehold projects. In the case of these leasehold projects, as the lease period ends the value of the flats in the project reduce, as the government may or may not renew the lease. On the other hand, for a freehold project like 8 Saint Thomas Great World City MRT Station, the property value will always appreciate, as only a onetime fee has to be paid.
