1. the developer shall do away of home shulter within the unit.
2. there is quite some wastage in most of the master bedrooms.
3. the worst is the double balcony. What u need is a good size balcony outside the living room with some outdoor sofa. In SM, u have a small balcony outside living room and a huge balcony for the master bedroom, and u cannot use the one at the master bedroom to entertain friends. Some stacks have odd shape balcony. Some balcony is very long and narrow, not meaningful at all.
4. I don't have the exact measurement, but AC ledge looks big.
5. Most of the living room is too narrow in width. U cannot have a good sofa set for a family of 4. Also, a narrow living room makes the place not so grand.
From the investment aspect, my view :
1. all properties bought from this year onward, the upside potential is getting smaller and limited, unless u really can find a superb buy, but very difficult.
2. investment giving 3-5% yield is considered as so so. There are forummers here getting 6-12%.
