Coastal Cabana Executive Condominium at Loyang Besar

Coastal Cabana is an Executive Condominium, which is a hybrid housing type in Singapore. It is sold by a private developer but governed by HDB eligibility rules during the initial period. After meeting the Minimum Occupation Period (MOP), it gradually becomes similar to a private condominium in terms of ownership and resale eligibility.

The household income ceiling for Executive Condominiums is S$16,000 per month. This is assessed at the point of application and is explained in detail in our EC Eligibility Guide, including how bonuses and variable income are treated.

Yes, existing HDB flat owners may apply for Coastal Cabana, subject to meeting eligibility rules. If successful, the existing HDB flat must be sold within the stipulated timeline after collecting keys to the EC, in accordance with HDB regulations. The exact sale timeline and conditions depend on your specific situation and are covered in detail in our EC Eligibility Guide.

Coastal Cabana comes with a 5-year Minimum Occupation Period, starting from the date of Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP). During this period, the unit cannot be sold, rented out entirely, or transferred, except under specific HDB-approved circumstances.

After the 5-year MOP, the unit may be sold on the open market to Singapore Citizens or Singapore Permanent Residents. After 10 years from TOP, the development becomes fully privatised and may be sold to foreigners, similar to private condominiums.

Many buyers are drawn to ECs because they offer private condominium facilities at a lower entry price compared to fully private condos, while still providing strong long-term upgrade and resale potential once privatisation milestones are reached.

Rivelle Tampines EC can work well for both first-time homeowners and families looking to upgrade from an HDB or older private home.

For first-time buyers, executive condominiums offer a blend of private-conventional living and relative affordability. Rivelle’s pricing is expected to sit below nearby private condensates, and CPF Housing Grants can help reduce the upfront cost further. The development’s mature location close to transport, schools, malls and everyday amenities also makes daily life easier for new homeowners finding their footing.

For upgraders, Rivelle presents a chance to stay in a familiar part of Tampines with more space, modern finishes and condominium-style facilities. The layout options — from three-bedroom units upwards — are designed with families in mind, and being within a one-kilometre radius of primary schools adds practical convenience for those with young children. The established infrastructure of the town means you don’t have to wait years for connectivity or amenities to arrive, which is often a key consideration for upgraders.

That said, owning an EC still comes with conditions — such as eligibility requirements and a Minimum Occupation Period — so it’s important to check whether you qualify and whether the timing fits your plans. But in terms of lifestyle and long-term liveability, Rivelle offers a compelling mix of location, product and value for both first-timers and upgraders.
