More like due to optima is really close to a mrt station. Plus I think that tanah merah mrt. And I think tanah merah mrt is rather valuable as it is an interchange station. Can go to right to pasir ris and also changing airport.[/quote]
could be....
other possible factors
1. more development coming up soon next to Optima (I know commercial site has been mentioned n years liao)
2. nearby Casa Merah has been doing really well. So there is even more catch up once Optima nearing TOP.

Anyone looking forward to completion of Optima ? I went to bedok point last sun and was amazed by 4 floors of eateries and there will be a new mall "changi mall" opp expo. Optimaians have no problem of makan or shopping
Newbie
Somehow I dont get this mrt concept selling..
If have to go to CBP/4th Univ then buy Car or take Cab..both cheap
If have to go to city then already tanah merah is too far east.
Either buy near city or buy a car, why buy M$ condo and then go smell stinky people in mrt?
Am kinda not used to smelling people's armpit..
Can some one explain why people wanna buy Optima?
I prefer taking cab to CBP as no ERP, kinda cheap.. unlike city.

Renters will take mrt to work wat...with or without cars, their wife, kids will take mrt.
Maintaining a car in sg is vy vy ex unlike other countries. And its gona be ex if ur whole family rely only on cabs
Newbie
Yeah.. Take cab everyday..Never go more than 10$ . No ERP
Yeah.. never think abt family cause am single
If can afford M$ condo can sure afford 150K car.Better than mrt smell..
Have tried few times during peak hour, Jam packed mrt , kinda feel like vomiting from the smell.
Unless MRT becomes less crowded. I would say money spent on car is worth it.
Don't know why people can't shower, use deo.. SMRT should place free deodrant for people
Junior
he.. he.. hee... dude, are you sure you are not the one producing the smell?Better than mrt smell..

No Lah...... if stink my boss will fire me..once she didnt hired guy cause dint like his handshake
I know smelly people..can tell by just looking..and to be true, lot of singaporeans are stinky..Cannot avoid them.. no choice..MRT so jam packed..

Wow! What a special talent, you can know smelly people just by looking. It must be so hard on you to endure all of us stinky Singaporeans.
What coincidence, I have a special talent too, I know smelly people just by reading. Haha...
Newbie
Am not racist..parapoondeks smell like kambing all the time, when they sweat lagi jialat.
I was talking more abt the appearaces..The one who loose T-Shirt or shirt and fat are the most stinky to me..
Anyway.. as long as can avoid..All I mean was why someone will pay premium to suffer on MRT..
Even if I have family.. I will prefer to avoid MRT..
MTR during weekdays too crowded and stinky..
During weekend..if u want family time why would you take MRT..
And with more people coming into Singapore its just gonna get worse.
I can understand that you can get tenants..but eventually they would also wouldn't like to suffer in MRT.. if can afford 4-5K rent can sure afford a cab.
Newbie
I didn't say singaporean are stinky..I said there are some.. like there are some in every country..every place in the world..
Am sure you are the one who has to endure sweaty and stinky people in MRT..
Must say u love MRT right? Nice u can smell all the sweat and armpits.. yuck...u take MRT...
Junior
Dude, you are changing your words, you didn't say some, you said a lot.
Junior
Wow.. why are you so sure you know what my mode of transport is? ? I have not even mentioned the MRT once on this thread.
My issue is not with the MRT. My issue is with the rodents and parasites that feed on the kindness and generousity of the Singapore system but bites back with unreasonable criticisms of its people. So are Singaporeans more stinky than the country you come from?
Newbie
My wife and I have a car each but I prefer to take MRT to work most of the time. My car is only used when I get home or during weekends. Fast becoming a luxury I should not be indulging in.
There are times when it is a tight squeeze on the train and yes, there are times (albeit very rare) that one is standing next to someone that has BO.
I find the MRT convenient, quick and fairly comfortable at most times.
I assume you are a woman since you are so particular about smell. If not, geez, then try to man up.

If u r working in the cbd, actually mrt is faster during mng peak rush hr n the timing is more predictable
Car park crunch in cbd too

Optima @ Tanah Merah hits $1,373 psf.
Looking at the construction progress, this project should TOP 2012 early next year.
Do not know what is the subsale market transacting currently. According to many agents, this project should touch $1400psf before year end......

At 1.4k psf, isn't it better to get mymanhattan at 1.1-1.2k psf (i think prices dropped to this level), both next to MRT, mymanhattan with Eastpoint next to it as well? Location is also equally close to CBP and 4th uni etc.
If only the Tanah Merah condos are all on the other side of the road instead. Much more convenient after you exit ECP to get home.
Newbie
Maybe the 1.4K psf unit is MM unit?
Music of the night
It is MM, My Manhattan MM also same psf.
Ride at your own risk !!!
Newbie
Key difference is TOP schedule lah
And perhaps different surrounding environment as well, to certain extent
Newbie
Optima will for sure TOP before Jun 2012
In fact most likely to be even earlier ie Q1 2012
Eagle Hunter
My manhattan is also conveniently close to HDB estates, MRT tracks and a hospital.........
Newbie
progress updates??
Can anyone share the earliest possible TOP date for Optima ?
Any updates on the construction progress ?
thks
Junior
June'12 TOP is highly possible, depending on the situation over the next 7 months or so, those early buyer (without SSD I think) will be doing the sell off - of course using the BR@Central price level as the new benchmark...
Newbie
They have started to plant trees, wonder how long more to TOP....

confirm complete before 31 March 2012 based on my sources, they need to hand over for inspection by end March 2012.
