    Sizes definitely wrong. Nowadays is all about small size, small quantum and big balcony. Who cares about liveability

    Under new regulations, average size must be 70 sqm?

    Maybe aiming for a new niche. Too many small units also risky.

    99 years began in 1991.

    Now is 2013, the project is already 22yrs and assume it takes 5 yrs to build.

    By then the project balance tenor is 72yrs.

    Even if average is 70 sqm, they can always add more rooms, eg 50 sqm 2 bedder, 70 sqm 3 bedder and 90 sqm 4 bedder.

    Personally, I don't think will be so expensive. At most S$1200psf for a 72yrs LH.

    Coz Nuang Residence a 999 FH is selling around S1400+++ psf from Sept 12- Feb 13. Last transaction was 1488psf.

    Just my guess.

    This picture looks like more than 90 units. So how many units are there actually? Confusing..

    If the developer top up the leased to 99 years then its possible to be selling this project at around 1350-1450 psf.

    How about kovan regency as a benchmark for upper bound? That project went for about 1200-1450 psf.

    Bro, different area lah...if you look at naung residence a 999 LH condo, it's less than 5 mins walk to hougang plaza, they are only selling at 1450 averagely.

    5mins walk to hougang plaza 999LH selling 1450 vs midpoint residence.

    Midtown is very near hougang mrt.
    The promenade is further away from kovan mrt.

    I think we will all be grossly disappointed with the price. One Huttons agent just told me $15xx psf to $16xx psf..

    3 bedders really small at 689 or 700 sq ft. Stack 14 looks good. Even at $1600psf quantum only $1.1m

    This kinda of psf is ridiculous. People can buy city fringe properties with this range.
