    private road is leading out of a property. I think there is a sign and barrier to discourage pple from illegal parking or turning into the private road. Since its private road, it should belong to that compound ba

    I think illegal signpost then. If it's private road and belong to that compound.. they would have just erected an auto-gate in front of the road.

Don't mean to start another long-winded "landed vs condo discussion". For landed , its rarely about the view.The play is on location, exclusivity and most important of all, scarcity since new supply is virtually non-existent.

    For this development, you can gamble on all the factors that you mentioned but wouldn't be it be a better bet placing your money on cheaper options like the whole stretch of condos lining Meyer road. That's where it differs. Scarcity and exclusivity doesn't really come into play. You have cheaper options ranging from belvedere to seafront at meyer to older options like Atria and Sovereign. Lots of alternative supply. All these have sea/flyer/IR view, possibility of MRT and proximity to disneyland plot. In terms of supply, many of the older apts along Meyer (Hawaii/Peach) could en-bloc which may result in a whole lot more supply of competing developments coming on-stream.

    As I mentioned, its just my personal preference. For a investment of >$4m, would rather place it on a landed in view of its scarcity.
    Landed is no value for money if its a terrace or semi detached. Unless its bungalow house. I had bad experience staying in landed, in my case a terrace house as I had a bad neighbor. And once u have this problem, the problem wont go away as you be facing your immediate neighbor day in day out. And u sharing the same walls (intermediate terrace/semi d).

    Condos are still better choice in addition to the wide range of facilities offered like swimming pool, gym etc...Not everyone like to stay in landed where u have to constantly face the challenge of maintaining your gardens, pest control, and on top of that a bad neighbor, roofing problem etc etc the list goes on and on.

    And on top of that, foreigners are barred from buying landed making this investment not a good investment as the foreigners are the ones that have lots of cash to spare.

    Bad neighbours are bad for any type of property. It depends on your luck.

    I would think the higher the housing density, the probability of a bad neighbour is higher. In addtion the problem is worse as higher density also translates to reduced proximity to the bad neighbour/s

    Surprise! No?
    http://sbr.com.sg/residential-proper...bbed-launching

    70% of Meyerise’s 120 units grabbed at launching

    Of the units sold, nearly half consisted of 3-bedroom units.

    The Meyerise, a high-end freehold development by Hong Leong Holdings, saw strong interest in its preview weekend with some 70 per cent of 120 units released snapped up.

    Of the units sold, nearly half consisted of 3-bedroom units. Unit prices ranged from $1,400 to $2,540 psf. Singaporeans and Permanent Residents made up over 90 per cent of buyers in the preview weekend.

    “Location proved to be a strong deciding factor for buyers of The Meyerise, particularly since about 50 per cent of buyers already live in District 15,” noted Ms Betsy Chng, Head of Sales and Marketing for Hong Leong Holdings. “Coupled with the fact that new freehold projects are becoming a rarity, many buyers felt that this was a good deal.”

    The 239-unit Meyerise is located minutes away Parkway Parade, Katong Shopping Centre and 112 Katong, as well as well-known heritage neighbourhoods Joo Chiat and Katong. Amenities such as grocery and retail shopping, banks, eateries are also within easy reach of the development. The central business district is easily accessible via East Coast Expressway and Nicoll Highway which are just a mere 5-minute drive away. For family entertainment, Playground @ Big Splash and East Coast Park are choice options. Premier schools include Chung Cheng High School, Tanjong Katong Primary School, Tao Nan Primary School, Dunman High School, Victoria School and Victoria Junior College.

    3/4bdr quite decent size and high end fittings.

    High flr seaview 4bdrs r selling fast....

    Cant really draw any conclusion bcoz i noticed buyers go for either premium sea facing units or low flr cheapest units....

    Low flr 3bdr from 14xxpsf and high flr sea facing 4bdr going for abt 2400psf

    Per flr difference quite huge abt 20-70k diff

    Doesnt look like we r having a economic turmoil....lol

    I drove to MeyeRise and wanted to go in and kaypor. But so many ERA agents and not a customer in sight. A tip to all agents at show flats: do not stand in front of the main entrance. This will intimidate everyone. By the way, I was not the only one who drove away without entering the show flat. What a pity.
