Wah, this thread....too fast for me to catch up... *blur*
shybride, your reno $42k very expensive. is it becoz u choose high standard material? i thought reno around $20-$30k..do u do any hacking? enjoy your taipei trip... it's very fun to eat n shop there =) i miss that place.
Jac, $60k very high.. N do u really need EM? maybe 4-5 rm is enough? coz u must think of reno n furniture oso..i think they can easily used up $40-$50k. dun give urself pressure..coz i was like that too..adding unnecessary pressure make myself easily agitated. dun forget, u still got BE.
flora, y must by this yr buy flat if want to take hdb loan? is it the T&C hdb gave becoz u hit the income ceiling thingy? according to hdb stats, amk 4 rm cov on average abt $27k. but take note, we duno the condition of the house, the location high/low floor..so it varies.refer to below. the amk 4rm owner must be crazy. is the house made of gold?? between that 2, i would choose the 5rm instead of 4 rm. but do u really like this place? if so, maybe the cov can negotiate.. try to find out what the last offer was by other interested party? meanwhile, go n view other flats these sat so that u can have more alternative. take note, maybe it is new listing, so they will ask for more. over time, when they realise what they ask for is too high, they will have to lower anyway. know any idea the reason for them to move?

i heard the same thing as what meiling heard. seems that it slows down, esp private. maybe due to previous enbloc situation last yr, it heated the mkt.. so, for those who can wait...u still can view to have more choices. ladies, work out your budget..see how much valuation+cov you can afford. i am not sure if u have agent to act on u or by urself. if u do have agent, tell him/ her what is the range that u r looking for. that's what i did. due to low cov that i can afford, we have lesser choices..somemore we want high floor n corner.. we are really lucky to have this unit. like what nelle mentioned, mine is in orginal condition. that is y low cov coz i need to do full reno. anyone interested in sengkang? i think someone selling, 100% move in and near compassvale.
y kim, what was the cov the owner asking for?
nec, landed? u sure....wah... i wish i can have that too...bt how come with mum n not hubby??
