actually they took away 1 bathroom, ie only 1 bedroom comes with attached bathroom instead of the usual 2 bedroom with attached bathrooms each that's why the size become smaller so as to be affordableOriginally Posted by kane
otherwise room size wise, still pretty similar to recent new launches
luxurie and caspian's 1300+sqft for a 4 bed is already pretty miserable. now they creating a 1152sqft to accomodate all that? i would much rather go for luxurie. no meaning if the units are too small.
How about 829 sqft for 3 bedder compact here?Originally Posted by kane
Is it acceptable?
Can always buy the 5 bedroom one if u find the 4 bedroom too small. Just open up the small bedroom 5 and you will get a very spacious living and dining area.Originally Posted by kane

Which are the best stacks for 3br and 3br compact?

There will be such a huge supply of housing in Sengkang, Punggol. The CTE jams (already bad) will be massive. And the ERP rates.....will go through the roof. Better hope many will be working locally (Aerospace Hub and the big industrial development to West of Jalan Kayu mentioned in the Seletar Residences thead.
It costs around $5 to go through all the ERP gantries between Sengkang and the City and sometimes no matter how early you get in the CTE, you have no choice but to pay because it's jammed all the way and you can't even get out.
Please go experience the CTE on a rainy day when school is in session and you will know how it is.
My girl's sec sch was in Sengkang and my husband drove that route every day for some years.

Price after discounts etc Liao...
Best for me compact 3 will be stack 18 or 48. If can get #08 even better haha
3 bed will be stack 16 or 37, 37 more since its right in the middle of the main pool
There is the KPE alternative for those going to CBD. But it will also get more jammed in future given the number of housing developments in Punggol / Sengkang plus Hougang.Originally Posted by chiaberry
Plus some of the residents from Bedok will also use the KPE to get to the City.Originally Posted by rymccondo77
By the time Punggol is up and away, the KPE will be as badly jammed as the CTE. Have you driven up to Punggol and have you seen how many HDBs are already being constructed, not to mention those not yet started and the huge Watertown and other condo devts there? That place is like a sea of HDBs. HDBs everywhere you look in whatever direction......it is quite scary.
Eh.. Don't mind me asking then... Where will u suggest to buy if a person is looking for a place to stay? Every expressways are jammed during peak hours and especially during rainy days so I doubt there's any escape...Originally Posted by chiaberry
FYI I'm currently staying in sengkang for the past 10years and I don't feel it's that bad
I also thought sengkang was not a bad place to stay when I was driving my daughter back and forth from sch. But it is changing very fast and getting more crowded as each batch of new HDB comes up.Originally Posted by ZeeWee
Compasspoint is quite a small-ish shopping mall and with Fiesta, Luxurie so near by, it will be super crowded at the weekends (already is crowded currently).
I agree everywhere will be crowded on rainy sch day. But CTE is especially crowded and you may have to pay $5 for the privilege of being in that jam in the morning (and could be more by now).
The solution is not to work in the City, work in the North/North-East.
Temasek return so low, 3% only for last 5y ... for sure every drop they must squeeze to milk SC cows
the brand is called HL milk:
- high COE
- high land price (indirectly benefits them)
- high rental (CAPL)
- high PUB/property tax
- low CPF rate
- low bonus/payout
- low service standard
- low pay for bus drivers

Last time people say jurong no good, woodlands no good, pasir ris no good, bishan cementry area no good, punggol no good... Etc in the end price big jump.

Working class are meant to work. You can dream of financial independent, but u will always be dependent on your jobs. Property dream is just a way to make u work harder. The gov will make sure that property dream will motivate u for a long long time.Originally Posted by phantom_opera
So isn't it good that this condo is near mrt so don't need to drive? Or are the trains just as bad?
Just wondering what's the 'story' for vesting here, other than aerospace hub? Sell to HDB upgraders after 4 years?

Most likely he picked it up on public transport as I have not heard that there is any outbreak on his school. The TB clinic is like a market place. So many people there. The tracing of TB contacts also seems to be rather ad-hoc. A letter is given to the affected patient and he shows it to his family. It is up to the family whether they will go in for screening and treatment or not. If they don't, nobody chases them. So I have this anxiety that there are people who have TB and don't know it walking around in Singapore. And since the public transport is constantly packed, they could be spreading it around. So.....don't ask me to endure the long MRT journey from Sengkang to the City. I could be coughed on by numerous people along the way.Originally Posted by Trigger
Are u a hypochondriac sis chiaberry?
Not in the past but I didn't expect TB to be quite so prevalent in clean and green Singapore.Originally Posted by mcmlxxvi
It's only when I have first hand experience of the TB contact clinic that I got scared.
in Singapore is simple, if you are prepared to pay half a million for your whole life for driving, paying ERP, insurance, road tax, paying tax on petrol, carpark blah, thank you for contributing to GIC / Temasek
for a family earning 200-300kpa ... it is not a problem
SG income tax very low, this is how they get back at you
