Trevista (D12, 99 years leasehold, NTUC Choice Homes)

Yes, may be I am outdated. I am the kind that drive a new car until almost 10 years old type (or when COE is so cheap at $2 that replacing the old car is more cost-savings).

The same kind of thinking manifests itself in the car market. Just that the developers cottoned onto this in the last few years.

Similar symptons but very different fundamentals behind it. Car value depreciates over time whereas most owners expect their properties to appreciate in value as time goes on..... Hence property owners will only sell if they are offered a price higher than what they had paid previously. Not sure if ever see the day if owners are flogging 2nd hand units at a lower price (like selling our 2nd hand laptops cheaper).

With inflation ragging on and massive money printing, doubt you will see 2nd hand property selling at cheaper price. There was a time that even 2nd hand cars are selling at much higher price than when the owners bought them new (because the COE increases from $20+k to $50+k).

Those people buy new house pay so much higher than old ones still become old after a few years and still get crap NEW finishing, what for?

looks crowded to each other...

Was quite keen on this project as TPY is quite central.

The expected launch price is a dampener. Plus, the feedback that this is a project surrounded by HDB is a real fact to consider. Just stand at the nearby esso station and the sense towering blocks are quite stunning.

Am quite puzzled by the silence in this thread. Perhaps, the buyers have quietly made up their minds and will throng the showroom on vip preview day.....and make it a sellout in 3 days...or less.

[sleek]

Will go and check-out the ID works & finishing since the 3BR layout is similar to 8@W.

[azeoprop]

In hiding and waiting to chiong and buy!

[tanumy]

This project is too expensive than why not consider buying double bay 3 bedder at $6xx psf only. Gr8 investment potential near simei due to upcoming singapore 4th uvi.

If its being target at HDB upgraders, mainly those who are staying around TPY, then its very difficult to convince them of better priced units out of TPY.

Also, as most may be for self-stay, then the proximity to whatever Uni will not outweigh the conveniences of TPY.

[tanumy]

still not worth to buy such expensive project. Upside limited and look at double bay in simei. Town area not that far too. Changi business park is upcoming.

Let's see whether TPY HDB upgraders can swallow 1000psf, double that of The Peak. Already, The Peak has a hard time selling the 110sqm 5-room HDB costing 600k.

Very hot questions as to why people are buying at such prices.

Think what probably irks you more will be the fact that Optima sold-out in 3 days while DBR still clearing units.

What to do? Optima has 天时地利人和 ...but the real test will be in subsale market Casa Merah 2bedrooms subsales transacted only at 790psf, DBR at 770psf ... how to flip Optima at 950-1000psf? Those who buy subsale is not as foolish as the showflat crowd.

[cndomay]

i wouldn't bother with this project.

why?

btw, ERA likely to peg Trevista to Centro ( $1100 to $1200 psf average). They call it compettive pricing!

Believe this subsales were done before Optima was launched, so we need to look at the more recent subsales to see the effect.

So when is the vvip preview of this trevista?

Logically since the market is recovering the prices will go up progreesively, but if every new project launch it go up by $100 or $200 psf then when it going to end?

If $1,200 psf for Toa Payoh area for 3 rms size of 1,100 sq ft, the quantum will be 1.3 million. How many can afford? Who would be the next one to buy the next high?

NO end to it...Poor thing...keep chasing...

[sleek]

So when is the vvip preview of this trevista?

There are agent promoting and getting prospective buyer to sign up for the VVIP Preview at the Link Bridge between the MSCP & Junction 8 this afternoon.

So you looking for another investment?

[azeoprop]
