    pple want new. but this could start to get the freeholds going as well.

    Has anyone gone to the launch ?

    i am told the mosque is still there, and that the developer 'paid' the mosque to build over its 'airspace.

    With a wall, wrapping the mosque into part of the building on the ground floor ....

    is that true ?

    the brisk sales could have triggered all this CCR buying.

    the appeal is for indonesians to buy so that they can go to paragon and the medical centres easily?

    also, i guess it will be very easy to rent out these units (nevermind if the rental yield is very low, point is, they just want to get some tenants easily).

    Oh well bro bargain hunter, you usually know better.
    Just saw our private conversation in my Inbox 4 years ago, you even manage to find out which unit i bought in 2011 which is REALLY scary. LOL
    Anyway, although my last post in the forum was in 2012, i still follow your thread all these years... You must be feeling touched now i guess. LOL

    LOL, my nick was confusing fellow forumers 4 years ago.
    Anyway i removed the signature to prevent further confusion.
    BTW since you were looking at landed 4-5years ago, did you manage to get the one you like?
    Landed prices went even more crazy after we bought it.

    ok what, now that wannabe has brought up this discussion about old guys. i am really curious, for someone who kept posting so many postings, are you sure can just read and don't post? anyway, i didn't say anything bad about him. in fact, the forum had been quite quiet for years, about time for it to come alive again lol.

    unsure of how many of 38 2-bedrooms and 63 2+guest are still available.

    Actually I notice buying activity is somewhat correlated to the activity level in this forum.

    which one is the leading indicator? buying pick up first then forum heats up or the other way round?

    Haha....I wish I know which is the lead. I only notice they are correlated. For me I did not stop reading the forum though. And I only post occasionally regardless if I'm buying or not.
