Just did a search on PropertyGuru. Realised that you cant find anything below 600k that is above 2yrs old! And even if so, its a few old grandmothers of MM...nothing larger than 700sf. What does this say? With limited budget, you almost certainly need to settle for MM regardless. Not only today but going forward...

That would be interesting to see. My gut feel... Assume 10 projects x 50 units average in D8, 30x50 in D9/10/11, 10x50 in D12, 5x50 in D13, 15x50 in D14, 30x50 in D15, 10x50 in D19... Perhaps about 5000 to 6000 conservatively?

agree. I remembered it was selling like hot cake even it is totally unacceptable for most and me.

she got the low floor, 2nd or 3rd level, so should be dusty-noisy-road-stadium facing. :D

it is not easy to find good-sized studios (500 - 600sqft) at good locations in good estates for even 700-800k. First of all, these are probably very limited in numbers and out of say 6, 7 blocks, perhaps only 1 or 2 blocks will have studios. In projects like Reflections at Keppel Bay, you can probably count them on one hand. Secondly, these are either lived in by yuppies who are still wealthy enough to afford the lifestyle, or rented to expats. Because they are studios, their rentals will be relatively cheaper than bigger sized ones, although the rental psf will be alot higher. Doubt these will even come down in value because they are already limited.

Valuation is based on rental, not prices.

it cites this same reason in the letter...i want to laugh everytime i see this...I heard even those location that not so attractive with minimal or no change in rental also cites this..how true is it I dont know.. But what i do know is i need to pay at begining of year, than mid or sometime near end of year where they ask for more citing the same reason that is what makes me scared when I receive letter with a IRAS logo.. :p especially it happens when price is up as far as i can recall...:o
