Hi,

I live close to Parc Emily and was wondering if non-residents could get access to the pool? I would appreciate if any of the owners/residents could email me details at [email protected].

Thanks

Nothing to do with the stock market lah.
It has all to do with the personal's character.

Then why didn't you sell your Visioncrest when the prices were high?

[RegĄstered]

There is a high floor unit asking for $1200psf and the best part is the lower units ask even higher at $1250-1300psf???!

It's understandable.

You don't expect them to sell at Jurong price of $1,000psf, do you?

To all condo owners in Jurong West,


Congrats to all of us. The $1000 psf price has come to town!


Saw this advert on the new development at Lakeside by Frasers Centrepoint.

economic conditions now... my frank opinion is maybe abt 6K max. I think you do have a realistic expectation if you are comparing with PE, however VisionCrest could command more. PE is a cosy development which i think is popular amongst expats. Visioncrest ... location wise, classy

i think to break even (instalments terms) with a big unit is good enough in times now
1. some ppl might factor in the tough times ahead going into 2009 so they will bargain
2. new developments coming up ... along popular sites like Robertson Quay
3. Downturn would see some expats returning
4. The depreciation of asset values will also force rent to go on the downward trend
5. Jobless rate should climb next year, more pressure on instalments, rent goes down

However, i think you still have a reasonable chance to rent it out albeit with an attractive price, ppl in S'pore not so much feeling the pinch yet in some sectors due to backlog orders, however going further down the road, ain't looking that good. IMO

Maybe the tenants have all moved to suburb condos?

Just look at the 8-year-old EC in Sengkang.
Rental at $2,500-$2,800 for a 3-bedder is so much cheaper than D9 condo.
Moreover, the rental rate is very firm.

Emm, really for every area / every development there is always it's target group of tenants.

Professional expats based in S'pore mostly have a housing budget from their companies. In 2007, anything property went up and many expats here found their budget to be out of range for a D9 condo.

What i see is that, mid tier mangers (3k-4k budget) going for a 2 bedder will consider city outskirt, D21, D19 etc, coz their housing budget would still be out of range for most D9 2 bedders. But this could change in the next few months when enconomic conditions deteriorate and D9 would become more affordable and maybe then, we would see a turnaround for some expats returning to popular districts.

Of coz... someone with a housing budget of 4k from their company will not want to consider Sengkang quite definitely

So how much rental can 1 bedroom in Parc Emily fetch now?

Would I still be able to command $3.5k - $4k?

If can, I don't mind buying for $550k.

Caveat lodged recently for a transaction done months/years ago.

i see... you mean there is no rule that a caveat has to be lodged within a certain time from a transaction?

This is one area URA seriously need to revamp the process/procedure.

[mengwee]

Extracted the following from URA website

http://www.ura.gov.sg/realEstateWeb/...isc/PMIFaq.jsp


Typically, caveats are lodged at least 2-3 weeks after a purchaser signed an option to purchase at the showflats. The press frequently reports the sales status of projects based on observations at showflats or interviews with developers. Therefore, what you read in the media will be different from the information shown here.

In addition, it is not compulsory to lodge a caveat for all property purchases. Lodging of caveats is usually done voluntarily by purchasers through their lawyers to protect their interest in the property.

This is one area URA seriously need to revamp the process/procedure.

[mengwee]

Which means whatever transaction data we see at ura site is not representative then.

The actual price could be higher, or lower.

Is my understanding correct?

Just checked the prices at URA. Prices have come down to below 1.1K psf.

1 PARC EMILY MOUNT EMILY ROAD Condominium 1 $1,100,000 1001sqft $1099psf Nov-2008
2 PARC EMILY MOUNT EMILY ROAD Condominium 1 $805,000 753sqft $1068psf Oct-2008

I saw a one bedder on 7th floor facing the workers' hut on Mt Emily Hill still trying to get $1.3kpsf with noon sun shining into the bedroom and living room. Good luck to you, man...

Have to say the area is not that good. A lot of foreign Indian workers since Little India is just 2 min away. Tried taking bus 65, 131, 57 and NE MRT line there and it's filled with Indians. But at the same time Dhoby Ghout is just 5 min away. So half empty or half full???

I guess if you can't afford Orchard Road, you can try Little India.
