so...what should be the price psf in foresque now?Originally Posted by devilplate
I think it is. Say if u can sell ur paid up HDB for 500k min, then a loan of 800k is what, 3k plus monthly installment ?Originally Posted by devilplate
Note I said within reach, i didn't say worth buying. The point is it is still affordable. It's up to the ppl to decide if they want to afford it. The ppl living around this area may find something they like.
From 800-1kpsfOriginally Posted by mastrix
So how many units they sell huh? i think now everyone scared of cooling measures and waiting for new cabinet to form. See if MBT still in charge of housing
Most likely 800 to 850psf for penthouse, which works out to be 1.7 mil onwards if it's of size 2200sqft. The price and size logical for u or not?Originally Posted by devilplate
My friend when today & check one of the Cabana unit size 1528sf, agent quoted after discount is $1.8m
That is $1178psf lor!!!
And he told me lot of wastage which the size included lots of outside area, so the actual build-in inside maybe ard 1100sf
Think the main purpose of cabana unit is for you to enjoy outdoor resort lifestyle. That's y when I look at the floor plan, the bedrooms are smaller than pes area. Hehe...which means u better stay outdoor most of the time than indoor.Originally Posted by Rysk
Siao Liao. Can buy d10 at tis pxOriginally Posted by Rysk
2200 sqft ... 4 bedrooms ?Originally Posted by Xan

yes it is ..compared to 2005
didnt we read so much in this site about hike in salary and bonus etc etc
so why still find a 2 mio ..3 bedder condo of at least 1300 sqft as expensive ?
i am comparing Pent houses ...Originally Posted by DC33_2008
a FH PH in D5 costs below 1000 psf ...
so why pay 1000 psf for D23 ... 99 yrs LH ... next to highway ?
they may be plans for D23 in the future.. but right now ..theres still ntg but traffic jam in the morning ....
Might as well pay a bit more for cluster housing. Dallavale, or cabana or even spring hill etc.Originally Posted by Rysk
Can got FH landed for that kind of price also.
Hehe...smart! Size matters.Originally Posted by kingkong1984
Esp when Units are getting smaller and smaller.
500sqft can now squeeze in 2 bedroom. Must really salute those developers.
.......people finding it expensive becos not everyone get the same hike in salary and the same bonuses as you....we are mostly average income earner not high flyers like some.....if everyone is like you...thre is definitely room for more increase.........Originally Posted by proud owner

Not everyone has as much salary hike nor bonuses like you hear....we are the average income earner unlike you.....
i think bankers still getting good $$
Can try asking any agt....see whether they say easier to sell a 1mil or 2mil condo now
U can advertise a 2mil n above ppty on st, hardly any calls
So whr the richie rich goes to?
Ultimately it's the quantum that matters - hence 800 sq ft 3 bedders still selling...
rich dun buy 2m lah. they buy 5m and above. LOL.
2m get caught by the LTV as u said. Sellers hard to find buyers and buyers cautious nor want to fork out so much cash upfront.
1m seems the norm for agents to sell like hotcakes (is it still?) these days.
april home sales numbers out today, should be a big number.

Unless one is still looking for a first primary residence for own stay, I don't see the need in investing a single $2 million property now.

Hard to accumulate 1mil spare cash....majority butt itchy when they got 300-500k cash on hand.....how many can resist of not investing in ppty until they accumulate 1mil?
now i am even more worried ...[/QUOTE]

Better to buy smaller units first when the tide started rising mah rite....Originally Posted by proud owner
