    Did some other hdb flat beat pinnacle at duxton to that record first? I always felt that the duxton place will set the first record and make the tanjong pagar ward look good.

    The $1m pyschological barrier is an important level. If it is broken, then sellers would have a lot more room nego on the upside.

    HDB is super cheap @ 1mil for tat location and price. for this price u can probably can only a studio or 2 bedder max. to private investor, HDB is dammed cheap, the rental yield is extraordinary.

    i think the next hdbs which have a chance of crossing $1m would be those 5-rm flats beside the future havelock mrt, namely the point blocks:

    94 and 95 havelock road and
    blks 2C and 4A boon tiong road

    then when pinnacle completes its 5 year moratorium, all hell breaks loose.

    hmm.... when the first hdb appointment comes,... the hdb counter staff will tell the buyer & seller the hdb computer system is unable to take 7-digit number (need to wait for next year's software upgrade)... so ended the flat transacted at $999,999... giving kbw some face and some breathing space/time... he got a weak $8 heart hor...

    Wow, $1m, it is more expensive than some of the pc. Some more, HDB owners enjoys most of the rebates from the govt + free building paintings every 5 yrs + subsidize upgrading + low cons fees etc. So how can govt based on the house to give rebates etc leh. Some HDB owners are really richer than pc owners.

    1 year back, my nephew bought a 25 yrs old 4 room HDB flat at Serangoon for $500k already.

    No wonder Singapore has more and more rich people. If I'm eligible to buy HDB flat, I also want to buy, then later sell high high, hehe.

    I always think that HDB flats are supposed to be cheap and for lower income earners only but I don't think so now, it has a mixture of rich, richer & richest people also. So not fair lah, why govt only curb on private ppty and not on resale HDB leh.
