This unit must have very good feng sui, view or whatever for the buyer to pay over $100 psf more than the average selling priceOriginally Posted by solsys
Would love to know why it is so special
Just received mailers from agents, looks like more 3+1 units are transacting at $9xxk......
$980k for a 3+1 ground floor unit transcated based on agent mailer.Originally Posted by solsys
$1 million barrier to be broken soon?
Steady poon pi pi
Bro, I see there are 1600sqft and 1430sqft..Originally Posted by solsys
if with 980K,
1600sqft = abt 612.5 PSF
1430sqft = 685 PSF
Do you think it is worth to buy?
Ground floor units psf usually lower than the rest because of the patio/PES area.Originally Posted by Naruto
Although ground floor unit with patio/PES is not everyone's cup of tea but there are some people who like and pay $$$ for it at the psf price of a unit without PES.
And that will be jackpot to the seller...... Worthy or not to invest depends whether you can find a "good" buyer for it eventually when u sell it.

The project is very nice! Worth buying for own stay or investment.
The pool shiok..I missed the Carpark man....so convenience.
Yes, super-sized pool.Originally Posted by crystech
Carpark is directly beneath every condo unit, no need to walk to MSCP or any other surface carpark.
This also explains why I bought a unit at 8CY with the carpark directly beneath me, hehehehe..... no need to walk.....
Very nice to hear good comments from someone with no vested interest.
doesn't 8CY only have multi storey carpark?Originally Posted by solsys
basement carpark at certain blocks and multistorey carpark is below 2 blocks as well.Originally Posted by Komo
the agent didn't tell me about blocks with basement carpark #%@#$Originally Posted by solsys
in any case if cannot park near lift lobby and go straight up to your unit then no diff between basement or multistorey
1 million hdb means 1 million northoaks 3+1 is around the corner.
Hi solsys, what is your view on the north-south expressway thatOriginally Posted by solsys
will affect Northoaks? I like this project.. dont misunderstand.
just want to know more before i zero in.
Tks.
If you are worried about the construction of NSE with noise and dust, you can pick the blocks away from Gambas Avenue.Originally Posted by Naruto
Anything midpoint of Northoaks towards Woodsvale should be minimally affected.
If you are worried about driving on the road due to road diversion.... the usual route from Northoaks to city, eastern or western part of Singapore has always been via Woodlands Ave 7 then Ave 6 then Ave 12 up to SLE....
We won't pass the NSE building area unless you are travelling through Gambas, then Sembawang Rd and southwards via city.
NSE construction would only commence in Year 2013 i think and completed by 2018, followed by Thomson Line........
All in all, not much of an issue.....
Thank you for your advice..very much appreicated.Originally Posted by solsys
Ground floor unit there, can consider?
You moving out or you got 8CY as your second property?
Still keeping my options open.Originally Posted by Naruto
Propertyguru sellers asking for $900k and above for the usual 3+1 units....
I'm expecting a rise to $750psf in the next 6 mths by Mar, Apr 2013 from the higher end of $6xxpsf now.
That would be around 7-8% increase in psf in 6 months. Got so kiah lan boh? So good to f..., no need to "chuah boar liao" (hokkein) But I certainly would not mind if it does happensOriginally Posted by solsys
S$750psf will the the record high, but average should easily be in the early $7xxpsf range for next 6 mths.Originally Posted by wesing
If the newspaper which says Woodlands will increase by 30% with the regional hub and MRT hub, that means..... S$822psf x 1238sf = S$1million ++.....
which is highly plausible in the years ahead to Yr 2018.

A 1227 sq ft unit at Woodsvale transacted at $716 psf in October!
This is higher than Northoaks' record of $715 psf for a 1216 sq ft unit in August
Oops. $715 psf not Northoaks' record. The highest attained was $806 psf for a 1216 sq ft unit in AprilOriginally Posted by wesing
What I understand from resident agent mailer is a 1248sqft unit transacted at $728psf.
If you look at propertyguru, asking is above $700psf already.
$750psf being the norm will come sooner than expected.
One unit transacted at $958,000 for 1292sqft unit, i.e. $741psf
Looking at $800psf 3-6 mths down the road.
By 2014, should be at least S$850psf.
This place is lively and surprisingly well maintained. Also have many facilities. Visited a friends BBQ party over the weekend and I heard it is due for painting next year.... Despite price rise...at $7xx psf its still the most affordable and decent sized 3 bedder in whole of sg right now. Easily worth $800psf.
Only problem is the impending road noise from highway being built...heard its just beside condo. Units not facing that should be fine though.
I'm going to view 2 units in Northoaks this weekend. How is this condo recently ? Anyone have any comments? Thanks a lot

Units are spacious, pick those with rectangulish layouts.

Thanks for your reply solsys. Have been busy recently so didn't have chance to check this forum. I visited the place twice. Very nice place with huge pools. Still thinking to get my unit there.
Will price still same in 2014 & 2015 ? probably down 20%
