Go for it.... good thing about getting a new homes means lesser capital outlay for the short term... & if you look at the TOP at Dec 2015, by the time it would be more than 4 years.... not forgetting PSA port will start to move out for the Future Tanjong Pagar Waterfront City, the next Marina Bay.Quote:

after looking at the flrplan for the 2nd time...:tsk-tsk:
i wished it was >500sqft at 1600psf...3xxsqft really wasting precious FH land!!!:doh:
I can see that you are keen on the project, but it's just the price issue. I'm sure you will have better opportunities the next time.Quote:

I visited the location and even went up to the highest floor of the HDB block just beside the plot. I'm not willing to pay such a high psf for low floors so that I can see the trees or for high floors to see the container terminal and listen to the constant noise from AYE.
fyi, there's a huge greenery just right in front of SPOTTISWOODE 18 facing the future Tanjong Pagar Waterfront City, with a Heritage Tree in the middle.
I google everywhere but the waterfront concept is only at the proposal stage and is likely not confirmed yet. If it is feasible, usually the government just accepts the proposal and announces the plan. Scholars in civil service likes to score points one. It is almost a year already since the news came out. I still think it is too difficult for the container terminal to shift due to coastal space constraint in the west. Probably making some way for waterfront living nearer to the Marina Bay is possible but not wholesale shift until the waterfront reaches the Tanjong Pagar stretch

Try the Mee Rebus at the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station before it's closed for redevelopment. Recommended... Nice Mee Rebus...... at the coffee shop just beside the train track.......
Noted, it will be closed soon after the owner buys.
Waste of land. You are building crap on a good piece of land.

Previously, the estimated prices for 1 bedroom was from $7xxk. Now the new revise prices will start from $6xxk. This would mean that all unit type prices will be revise as well, making it really affordable to own this outstanding location development. This is definitely a good news for everyone. Preview Date of Spottiswoode 18 will still be on 18 Jan.
Just got an email from propertylaunch website:

6xxk a good buy? :beats-me-man:
It could mean the higher end of 6xx K? Not sure how the sentiment would be.
Are there anyone who has booked but is not contemplating to withdraw?
I prefer 5xxsqft at 8xxk leh.... I can see tge potential in this area but shoebox ruin the precious land...
Next door 600sqft layout cmi n now undercut by spott18.... Must b shivering now
my opinion is avoid mickey mouse units... when vacancy is high during a downturn, will be hard pressed to get tenants.
all depends on rental price i suppose...so long bigger den a condo masterbedroom size...hahaha....rental 1.2k during downturn sure can find tenants....:pQuote:

i realise only HDB whole unit rental quite stable during previous short downturn
btw i glanced thru alexis thread...u and gfoo was laughing about alexis tiny shoebox...but well, 1st time buyers still make decent profits....i was there too and i say crazy for ppl to clap clap for successful balloting....as if strike lottery...lolQuote:

this weekend is interesting but i m busy. anyone visiting any new launches today? Vibes @ Kovan or Poets Villas? can update us on how hot it is? then we can watch this project on next tues. :)
