A brief is a short version of a case study.
In the island republic of Singapore, 90 percent of the 4 million population live in apartments. And foreigners may purchase only condominiums—they are barred from owning detached houses. Given this situation, and given the popularity of private outdoor space in multifamily buildings in this tropical nation, it is no wonder that Glentrees has been wildly successful with its offerings of two- to four-bedroom condominiums, each with the option of a small garden, even at the fifth story.
