Better than One Canberra Residences (OCR) or Royal Canberra Residences (RCR)Originally Posted by zzz1
Yah, last time got Heights, got Gardens etc (i know you talking about toyoto though)
Then came 90's and got Regency, got Towers, View etc
then came the latest trend of Residences, Thes, Suites, Lofts, etc
or canberra clown residences.Originally Posted by zzz1
U know MCC is a chinese developer.
northwood tuck away from main road, is it really that good? I dont like the entrance, very narrow and crowded. I have yet to visit the project.Originally Posted by mantrix
sensoria's air quality should be better as the surrounding is not cluttered - no shophouses around doing all kinds of businesses.
small projects and few facilities is fine for me cos more exclusive + less users. But the problem is the price upside is restricted and some owner tends to sell low if they are in any urgency to off load. so the price of small apartment is somehow below market value.
tats why u see that small project's psf price movement cannot move faster than those 200 to 300 units type of projects.
100 plus units projects also have this problem but not as bad so its a trade off between exclusivity and price rise.
yap yap...watch out of the quality...in general sense.Originally Posted by rattydrama
Canberra China Residences also canOriginally Posted by zzz1
Tis will be a real test if Chinese developer can deliver good quality.Originally Posted by rattydrama

Anyway back to topic
Interest seems up nowadays - many investors in the region looking (be them from China or otherwise)
I think we really have a lot of cash-rich people wanting to invest and Far North prices are the most attractive for them
as in cheapest?Originally Posted by mantrix

Saw A'Posh BizHub few days ago in Yishun. Commercial flatted space, 60years, low quantum with projected 6 to 6.5% rental yield, claims support Seletar Hub.
Anyone knows if all the recent measures apply to commercial space or not? What about hdb shopspace? Sorry for OT. Thanks.

Better to buy Tagore - freehold with captial appreciationOriginally Posted by zzz1
Tagore freehold too pricey for most pax lah.....prices at least $1m and above. I prefer Northlink even tho its abt 10 yrs old. more affordable lah the demand for the units there are still pretty hot with good rental yields. even on a Sun, business is still bustling there which is a good sign for the businesses there....Originally Posted by mantrix
what do you think of A'Posh? quantum is < 0.5 mil. brandnew, very nice looking, top 2nd half next year.

didn't do research on A'Posh so I'm sorry I can't comment much on A'Posh although I heard quite a number of units sold.
I think it's 60-yr leasehold? as long as not 30-yr leasehold then not too bad lah. and I think they are developing that entire area with flatted factories like around it. the leases for the Kaki Bukit factories are running out in 1-2 years' time so the tenants may be looking towards Yishun for alternative venues. I kind of think they will prefer to remain in the same general vicinity if possible but nearer locations like Ubi are already quite old and the traffic there is terrible. downside is that with so many new factories in the area, competition for tenancy will be keen lah....
Thanks Karen. Not going in cos this is totally new for me.

If sales as dismal as Centro, then prices will remain where they are...
sorry, my brain finally wake up a bit bit. I'm referring to Defu factories where the leases are running out, not Kaki BukitOriginally Posted by KarenK
.......Kaki Bukit is ok place but like Ubi, the traffic is terrible......
KTM will be in operation in woodlands 1st Jul. dunno will it help to push north price?
