    No so sure about war. But from next few years readings, there shouldnt be a significant war except for one.

    Tomorrow, you will hear more significant news coming out from commercial properties.

    Surprisingly, the market react to the "haven made public" population policy more than the CMX.

    That sounds like a bubble. For that location. You probably would get about $20psf on a sustainable basis? Thay's about 3.4% gross. And you have a higher interest rate to deal with.

    Wait until you see the population white paper then make this comments.

    If you noticed, with the thousands and thousands of resi units built, there are no corresponding commercial units. One v good example is Novena/Newton area. After building Lincoln Suites, Viva, Lucida, Soleil, Trilight, etc etc, we get the same United Sq, Novena Sq, Sq 2. If u noticed, the malls are getting more crowded nowadays.

    This will be the case for increasing demand for commercial properties.

    Our government is one of the best in the world but not perfect la. Take care of this, miss out that. Thats is how people like us make a bit of pocket money here and there to pay for the $3 Wanton mee that used to be $2.

    the malls are getting very crowded that I agree. but the shops at a few malls are turning over to new tenants. quite surprising actually.

    Xie Xie!

    You have to make the agents work for you.
    Treat them like your employees, take care of their welfare, give them some money to earn from you, but make them work hard for you too !

    My team of agents never dare to treat me like that though I am just an Office Boy.
