    Default Flynn Park

    This condo crossed 2.4m now. I was about 1.98 a year ago. Bigger units getting more popular now?

    well the seller pulled out after recieving my cheque ... he was oversea ..and had prepared the sales agreement ...waiting for his wife to sign....
    anyway he pulled out before i got to see the agreement ...

    it was an empty and run down unit ...

    The Peak is very exclusive - High living in Low Density housing. Too exclusive for most.

    Overall either Island View or Flynn Park for general accessibility (MRT) and size.

    What's the reason for the sudden interest in Flynn Park - so many transactions since last year and none for before that?

    some people are beginning to realise the joy of living in a 2100 sqft 3 bedroom unit with no silly baywindows or planters

    Over CNY period I heard Island View was trying to garner support for a EB but I didn't hear anything for Flynn Park.

    Has anyone heard anything on Flynn?

    why the seller pulled out of the sale in 2006 when i paid him 900k was becos the mgmt sent out a survey ..re EB ...

    as for Island view my understanding is ... most owners are expats themselves .. and ang mohs aer not keen on enbloc

    they know once sold .. you cant find another like it ...
    the unit size of 2400-3600 sqft
    the vast land, greenery ...etc and very near MRT too

    What abt Flynn? Are the units there owned by ex-pats too?

    I should go and see Flynn and check out the environment ...how different from a typical condo..

    i think all 1800 -2400 sqft on a single floor .. only 1 blk E/W facing the rest N/S facing ... higher floor has 'sea' view

    u will love the size of the units ...

    facilities so so ... gorund level carpark for most ..but also have sheltered ones

    at its current price ..hard to be enbloced

    Nah, out of my league. Too big and quantum too high for a single unit there.

    But like proud, this remains my dream home.

    Lived there many years ago when growing up.

    It's a very nice place and it's really hard to find so much space in a 3 bedroom apartment nowadays.

    One word of caution though: We moved because we stayed on the top floor (4th) and we had constant leaking. At the time, we were told that the leaks could not be fixed. Not sure if it's still an issue but may be preferable to buy lower floor.

    That's the thing - it's a low density 4 storey development.
    En bloc potential and MRT are factors, but ....2.7mil really?
    Ah well - if you have it, spend it...looks like a long wait to get it at a bargain price

    Remember the 4 year SSD applies if condo goes enbloc before 4 years.

    i got interested when it was @1.9m and now @ 2.7m ~ a 700k profits with 12 months ~ unbelievable ~ better returns than any other projects even though the rental could just be 4.5 per month. wow wow....

    4YSSD not a problem if the price continue to appreciate to 3.2m with a year.. this buyer has so much confidence level?

    Hahah same here, though story a bit difference.
    Almost wanted to buy it but when I look at the URA site plan, the shape of FP like not very regular which means en bloc might not be attractive.
    at 2.7mio, who cares about enbloc...

    what i like about FP is the space + it is located on a higher ground..

    I went through the same thoughts on the the shape of the land.
    But for developers its about the Gross Floor Area and Ave Selling price, so that's we faltered. Alots of unused land space here.

    Alas must wait till the next down cycle.
