Of cos, also crammed like sardines same as ATTers

I believe you are paying for what you get. ATT definitely has a better site specification than watertown which is even more cramped. On the whole, Watertown seems like a pretty small town centre like you say with mall mrt and waterview whereas Bedok Residences has a higher site specification than watertown and a bigger town center with more malls. Hopefully punggolers are wise enough to visualize the end product of Punggol 21 and not buy into the hype. It is good to travel there to shop but not stay there and shop there all the time.

Hi, sorry if you disappointed you never buy that time, but don't think we want to "kidding" who

tks jwong71 showing the data.

that the reason why impress by 2 of my friends who purchase the unit at JP, and now enjoying at close to $680K pure profit within 3yrs ... then we start to take notice of Mall + Residence + MRT type of property.

of course repeat of 1997 to 2002 or 2007 to 2009 type of crises,drop between 15% to 45%, it will only motivate people to buy more such project.

Just came back. The price list and brochure were left on the side table free for all to take... Only the SOHO show flat is open for viewing. Design and finishing similar to Hillier which is quite good compared to ATT.

Discount for today is 15% + 2% loyalty + 2% HDB address = 19% Plus normal stamp duty rebate (3% of nett - 5400) + 2% of nett in terms of furniture vouchers upon top.

Most of the released units facing the waterway are sold.

Sample list price, calculate the 19%+3+2 discount yourself.

any updates on tower 5?

**fiat500** · 20-01-12, 19:48

Overall only the new launches are doing well..the rest of the resale mkt is very quiet,not much transaction.
Theres nothing to cheer about actually as mkt is not buoyant.

**mcmlxxvi** · 20-01-12, 20:59

Now i know why so many projects recently launched are named with 'water'... This year is Water Dragon year.... Wet and auspicious...

After 20% discount, still more than $1k psf for Punggol... wow!

**fiat500** · 21-01-12, 05:39

Watertown will b the hub of punggol once its completed.
For the layouts,i didnt quite like it cos of no stowage area otherwise everything else is
good.

**ysyap** · 21-01-12, 05:48

If you are not used to staying up in the NE, and your work area is far away, then staying in Punggol requires some getting use to... anyway, this is one of the few towns in Singapore where more development can be expected and its a young place to stay... good for young kids to grow up in... should be increasingly vibrant in years to come!

**azeoprop** · 21-01-12, 06:36

I don't really like the idea of staying on top of a busy shopping mall, does not feel exclusive and every day will be a nightmare of crowd. Imagine if they have some events at the mall blasting loud music ...

**azeoprop** · 21-01-12, 07:18

btw, for those interested, you can join the official watertown facebook page with live updates.... haa haa.

884k for 915sqft? that is less than 1kpsf. So that should be considered cheap?

The price is net of all discounts.

Usually 2BR condo in mixed development is above 1000psf, whatsmore this is transport integrated too.

That why I took the step forward

Think u got a pretty good deal.
I was quoted 650k for a 1 bedder 560sqft suite and 730k for a 603sqft SOHO.
This works out to be ard 1158psf.
Was condering the 1 bedder suite but kinda turn off by the SOHO as my head almost hit the ceiling.
