As above, let's discuss if EC is really worth to go for given the fact that HDB is already at skyhigh price and private properties are scaling further up.

Oldest ec eastvale. Hehe

if hsehold income jus above 10k, can appeal to get a new EC? worthy to get a new EC nowadays?
Newbie
Yes, my personal view is it is worth it if near MRT. Especially the one launching soon at Buangkok MRT called Esparina. Furthermore, Govt did away the levy for EC for upgraders during bad times and never install back so now even more worth it.

This maybe the most expensive EC ever launched.

EC is worth the while if it's near the MRT.

EC usually not at a very ideal location. I would say bishan loft is the best amongst all, in terms of location. Very convenient in a matured estate and pretty near MRT (very "walkable"). Somemore it's circle + NS line. Imagine just 10 min to Orchard road. Easily link to all major highways.
For other ECs I think value will depreciate fast, especially when they get older. Bishan loft will have better price support level.

If price is too high and too near private condo pricing (which I think probably will), then it's not worth it.This maybe the most expensive EC ever launched.

Too expensive.This maybe the most expensive EC ever launched.
Surely wont make money if buy ECs from govt.
Normally when ECs come out, it signals the closing end of the bull property market.
Junior

I noticed that EC land/project release is always when market is bullish. One reason is land location is not as ideal as private condo.govt dun time at all...got demand, they sell land
Shortening the completion requirement will also help govt to plan/time better. Everything under control...

i dun see it tat way...they shd reduce the number of GLS sites if they wana push up the bids...Got la, they timed for GLS at peak ma?
Global recession is coming....
Recent GLS sites mostly in 'like shit' locations! Still, they can be sold at such high prices! This means property prices is now in start of another golden age?

Even the Lehman Brothers collapse, world financial market meltdown and Eurozone crisis could not stop the uptrend.Recent GLS sites mostly in 'like shit' locations! Still, they can be sold at such high prices! This means property prices is now in start of another golden age?
Although I believe in PROPERTISM - that property prices always go up in the long term - I don't really understand what is causing mass market condos to go above $1,100 / $1,200 psf.
Many reasons have been proposed, e.g. liquidity, low interest rates, high growth, immigration etc. but the market has an intelligence of its own which is greater than the intelligence of each individual.
Usually, we'll be able to know the reason only after the event, maybe 10 years from now the picture will be clearer.
