Those who have collected keys and see the units ...
What do you think of the funny looking water tabs for the bathroom sink and kitchen sink? Are they practical/easy to use?
Cheers.

i would prefer the good old simple classic looks thats forever a favorite ..

'cheap' doesnt mean gd
Agree with DevilPlate.
Cheap doesnt mean good.
Sometimes people should stop saying condo A is so much cheaper than condo B next door --> Buy Condo A !
Only agent talk like that ... As buyers, the question u shld ask is WHY? is condo A so much cheaper ?
There is no free lunch!
that whole area ....the first condo i went to view was Lincoln Modern .. i loved it and almost bought it .. but didnt ..cos i didnt like climbingOriginally Posted by DKSG
during that time .. it was the only new condo there .. then so many sprang up .. blocking each otehr ...
Iridium was the last i saw .. i gave it a miss .. cos its was too small ... didnt really like the layout ..
all i can say is I liked that area .. when Lincoln Modern was the only condo there .. now ..its like a NO VIEW condo area .. anyhow try ice cube from your unit ..sure hit another condo ... too cramp for me
If cheap is good, buying those HDB flats beside private condos must be the best deal! (many in suburbs and heartland districts have such "good" deals! Even part of River Valley also have. HDB flats on 1 side not too far away and then you have a condo nearby transacted at S$1800-2000 psf!).
However, sometimes cheap is good if we compare everything and both are similar and yet 1 costs much more than the other because may be they are built by some developers with clever branding. (so many people pay much more for these properties but do not mean they are really worth it, just like buying Lexus which at the end of the day is still a "Toyota" ).
Sometimes cheap is bad if they are poorly maintained, too small estate size, poor interior layout and too much wastage of space, lack facilities, too cramp (because too many units even if have big swimming pool and 2 tennis courts but actually still not enough to cater for 400+ units!), overlooking the expressways (throw a stone out of the window can hit the vehicles on the expressways).

Buying properties at Marina Bay area if no bay view don't know buy for what? Not that the location is superbly good to live in or super convenient to travel around. Everyday jammed like hell!

btw, MBR got seaview facing
I agreed with u!We have similar investment foresight!Including those investors who bought and flipped the Sail non bay unit or are currently owning units there!Cheers!Originally Posted by devilplate
Because I don't flip mah. It is up to buyers whether they want to be left holding the babies that nobody want if they didn't manage to flip successfully.

Highlighted in RED not true for prime CCR areas like D9-D11 (but getting more so for the city fringe like D3, D12 and also D1 & D2 etc). There are more & more rich people around in the prime CCR areas instead (regardless of nationalities, but more and more rich foreigners).
