SB 2bedrm should be 4.5 - 5k for those high floor units let out a month ago. Heard even MBR is dropping their rental now.

mbr definitely dropping rental..their 1bedder was asking for 5.5k initially

[smallant]

WB showflat got kayah... means they oredi plan for freak flood mah... DR dun have.. so maybe tat the reason why lor...

is it true that DR is not 100% sold? while WB is. I wonder why...

probably coz the landscaping n facilities are not up to scratch? i feel they could have done better in those 2 areas.

silly, pricing lah

I suppose quality and design could be a concern? I do not have good impression of the developers.

[maisonjai]

DR consist of bigger units, if u add up the planter & bay windows it's about the size of 1 bedroom, that pushes up the quantum as well.

Those 4bed view nicer la.

[Fishsee]

The remaining units are the 4 bedders which are very big... above 1800sqft. Easily $2mil based on the psf now...

[focus]

Agreed. Daytime , the landscape looks very lousy and bare...
but nite time.. with the lighting, the place do have that resort feel.. Probably because it's dark everywhere and you will focus on the landscape.

Can you reveal how much you bought yr 1023 sq ft unit for?

Congrats on your profits, I am sure you were not expecting to pocket this amount of gain when you first purchased it.

Wonder how much WB will fetch once TOP in 2014??

Don't think so. I got the highest floor they could give during April unless someone returned. Only know it's below 10th floor that were left after that.

So yours is on the 19th flr ?

[focus]

So yours is on the 19th flr ?

haha.. nope.. I believe 19th floor all sold out when I went. Anyway, at that time, it's all pricing at $1100psf for the high floors ..so 19th floor is too big to swallow for a 99yrs lh at that location... Can buy 3000sqft landed at D15/16 leh.

Just heard from agents that rental at DR is a competitive. Tenants prefers Meyer and Tanjong if they are working near the east. Prospective tenants felt that DR is too far from CBD as there are other developments that are much closer. Hence, rental has to be lowered over there. Is it true?

I saw in ad listing people asking for around $3.8psf to $4.5psf.
But so far, only see 3 angmoh singles moved in .. donno how they live.. no sofa, no stuff.. just sit on the floor at the balcony and a paperbox as a desk for his laptop. Damn low-budget..keke..

Think Dakota more for HDB upgraders(like me). I see a lot of singaporeans(own-stay type) over the weekends. But if it's any consolation on the property price over Dakota, as reported in Edge, a Hongkie bought 8 units of 4 bedders at bulk discount price of $1080psf. 8 units of 1830sqft in one development means he's damn confident of its potential rental?

Just read the Edge again..
it was reported that he bought during April this year when Waterbank was launched. So 8 units at average $1050psf for $15.4mil brokered by Savills. I deduced it's 4 bedders as only 4 bedders were left in April.

imo the dakota location is one of the better ones for upgraders ~
