L'CRAPPY NAME! So pretentious!

But I like the location.

Waiting for L'CRASH to buy 2 units in L'VIV.

Below 1800psf can buy.

If you want to buy that area, might as well get beacon heights (tallest project in that area with 28 floors) at less than 1k psf and it is in an exclusive neighbourhood of boon keng. no doubt newton is more upmkt, but look at the price difference and beacon heights is only 5 min drive to town ( i tried it in slightly less than 10 min with traffic conditions).

In fact, you should also avoid Orchard and D9, and buy more St Micheal.

Is there anything that is cheaper than Beacon Heights? If there is, let me know. I will avoid Beacon Heights and buy more of the cheaper one. The objective here is to buy the cheapest condo or apartment.

Who cares about D9, D10 or D11? So what if the St Michael or the cheaper one is a sh¡t? We are sh¡ts anyway. Why bother to stay in D9, D10 or D11? People will still view us as sh¡ts. Might as well get more value out of our purchase.

Correct. Believe not much upside from here. On top of that major portion are small units.

still, what makes it interesting is if they still offer DPS though......

agree. in most countries, staying outside city is definitely not for the serenity or country living. if you pull anone from the streets in cosmopolitan cities, all wish to stay within cities, in general. prices kill their wishes. cmon denial will continue to deprive one's of opportunities. diff betwn how the rich and the poor thinks

agree with sour grapes' reply to unregistered's comments. in most countries, staying outside city is definitely not for the serenity or country living. if you pull anone from the streets in cosmopolitan cities, all wish to stay within cities, in general. prices kill their wishes. cmon denial will continue to deprive one's of opportunities. diff betwn how the rich and the poor thinks

Newton Meadows
No. of Units: 28
Year of Completion: 1983
Unit sizes:
2 bedrooms: 115 sq m
4 bedrooms: 290 - 338 sq m

Only enbloc for around $600psf/ppr. Now asking $1800psf....

L'Viv comprises a total of 147 units - 72 units have one bedroom and a study and these come in two sizes, both 600-sq ft plus; another 72 units have two bedrooms and a study (all about 1,000 sq ft);

Used to be 28 families (average 4 persons)= 112 sharing the site. Now we have 147x2= 294 persons sharing the 40,000 sq ft site about 3 times.

However, I'm just not sure so many 600sqft units will be rentable for that location.

seems sales have started, anybody know how its going ... prices are around 2000 psf +/- 50 from what I saw.....

L'Viv - 147 units on about 43k sqft land.
Heard that some mid-floors sold at about $2200 psf!
Lowest floor going for >$1850 psf!

---

Any agent kind enough to give us an update? Thanks.

I think L'viv is more than 25% sold already.
Not bad, considering limited units were released ...

it still seems rather $$$, and the smallest units just 600 and 650 sqf .... I am not in Singapore now otherwise would take a look .... the only thing that makes this a "gamble" maybe worthwhile is the DPS

Just came back from Lviv showflat.

1. Nice and rectangular layout
2. Don't like the planters and bay windows
3. Good finishing
4. $2100 for 17th floor for 1000sqft

Not much upside. What does everybody else think?

I been to the showflat too.

Agree not much upside and the plot of land looks smallish. Small pool!

I was there during the preview and at tat point of time, if u r looking at 2 bedder or bigger...personally, trilight is better. If u have tight budget, Lviv is the only choice. I believe certain stacks of Lviv commands a gd view.

Agree. Cannot see upside. Unless the development is so unique that you have to stay there, not too worthwhile as an investment. And frankly, nowadays every new development look the same, so well, not much for aesthetics.

those older projects just across the road are selling at 500psf lower, so if buying for location, no point paying that extra 500psf more for a new project

If you have tight budget, the older resale condo nearby is much much better choice because of lower price and much more efficient space layout (you don't pay extra for the space you can't use)! Take the money saved and do a really nice reno!
Some people will say buy new better wah! Buy new so what? 5 years later it is already old anyway? Better buy for the value than buy for the "new". ;)

i agree. buy old with good layout and reasonable facilities at same location is best. spend some money doing reno and unit will look as good as new. condo buildings are made to last for more than 100 years so age of condo not a big issue imo. again if everyone concentrate of buying old like us, developers of new projects go bankrupt liao
