I rather they don't rush the opening but guarantee no breakdowns or hiccups.

that means have to sell SB liao....
Just attended the smart investor panel discussion. Seems that investor now should be looking at rental yield potential rather than capital gain in the next few years. Shld keep yvr SB If uare geting good yield of at least 5%.Originally Posted by sh
How to look at 5%? Rental yield? Coz u buy now... even is rental yield is 5% but capital deperciate if price drop 5-10% all r yield also go down the drain.Originally Posted by DC33_2008
If you got good holding power and don't sell, why would the yield go down the drain?Originally Posted by minority
Properties are bought to be kept especially good ones like this one with 99LH next to mrt with underground malls & one stop to marina bay financial centre & walking distance to raffles place (D1).Originally Posted by minority
I have been saying this for a long time. Buy for yield and long term appreciation, not to flip.Originally Posted by DC33_2008
5% yield is hard to achieve if based on current price. If based on original price, it's well above 5%.
The issue i'm struggling with is whether to sell the LH to replace with a FH property. Think long term.... Very long term....
It is all about location. LH good FH better. It is still boils down to location.Originally Posted by sh
Yesterday's article in Sunday's Times has awoken some agents. Got a few calls if wiling to sell EG. No good reason to sell. Price and rental will move up again when telok ayer mrt stn operational next year.
Nice tryOriginally Posted by DC33_2008
Emerald Garden will have the Telok Ayer Station less than 100m when DTL 1 opens next year.
Thomson Line to fully open by 2021
Updated 03:07 PM Aug 29, 2012
The Thomson Line's alignment was announced this morning by Minister for Transport Lui Tuck Yew after he visited the Telok Ayer Station, which is one of six stations of the Downtown Line Stage 1.
"I am happy to announce that DTL Stage 1 is on track for opening by the end of next year," said Mr Lui. The six stations - Chinatown, Telok Ayer, Downtown, Bayfront, Promenade and Bugis - are currently in the final phase of completion.
condo is pretty rundown. rental yield also not very fantastic despite the location. Best is to wait for some developers to en bloc it and resell it as 99 LH development. The road leading to this condo is pretty tight, I think it will be a nightmare for the shops along the streets if this project go for enbloc.Originally Posted by DC33_2008
Another station (Thomson Line) next to Emerald Garden!
which mean the drilling construction is going to continue till 2021...Originally Posted by DC33_2008
Not as bad as the construction of Telok Ayer mrt stn. Understand that there is a shopping belt (like Marina Link) that links between Telok Ayer mrt station and Chinatown mrt stn. Fortunately, it is closer to Maxwell Road.Originally Posted by Poloclub
Road closure for pedestrian at Ann Siang road and part of club street to create a more attractive environment to complement the use and character of the area starting trial from April - Jun on Fridays and saturdays 7pm - 1am.
If they are going to start construction on your thomson line,
i bet the rentals are going to suffer much much more due to traffic congestion and noise hazards
a few or couple of hundred difference honestly won't be much of a diff if you've been a landlord long enough. most important is the tenant look after your place.

This station is not like Telok Ayer station which has affected the rental some of the blocks. Now, telok ayer station is less than 50m away from the rear gate.Originally Posted by smartboy2
I am not sure how this can be good news. If there are lesser highrise, that mean the place is already over crowded and there will be little chance of government increasing the plot ratio.
So how is this a good news for a 999LH project that is hoping to get en bloc in future?
