    That is what we call pressure buying due to herd mentality.

    A lawyer told me that some people didn't realize they do not have sufficient financial means to go ahead with the purchase and only discovered this reality when they go to the lawyers office to sign the S&P agreement! Apparently they were caught off guard either by the stamp duty quantum or the amount of cash they have to pay upfront before dipping into their CPF and bank loan.

    I think the last thing on the mind of these buyers is the lawyer fees. 1.25% forfeit is no joke.

    the concept of freehold or ccr is a marketing gimmicks, the only thing impt to an investor is rental yield and ROI.
