[ecarg1310]

check this out, Park Centralians!

My hubby got this flyer from his letter box. To think all of us with big queue no. thought we would not stand a chance! Haha...

 

[lilacbliss07]

haha u all 5 rm one ok le... 4rm ones taken up quite early.. keke... heng i still can get to select 1 unit...

 

[rambutan888]

y not we suggest e developer to build one swimming pool beside it... then it look more like a condo

 

[simba]

i too thot i did not stand a chance with my 19xx queue number, hahaha

 

[jacsmile]

I think not many pp want to buy 5-room now. Seems like 4-room more popular with younger couples. Wondering if they are able to sell all the 5-room units.

 

[leongnling]

J & J >> cos the 5 rooms too ex for newly weds i guess?

Hi anyone receieved HDB letter of offer for housing loan? We received today and got 7 days to sign and return to HDB. HDB calculated based on 30yr loan. No option whatsoever for 20yr or 10yr etc. Can we change after we sign this document? Coz want to reduce on interest if possible. Anyone familiar with this? We are 1st time buyer so not too sure.

grace> think i read it somewhere that someone received te flyer on the day PC open to public i think. but i never see before till now. haha

Ed&Et> someone here said she received already I rememeber but can't remember who exactly. I still waiting. Prob better for you to call them up and ask. maybe ask the hdb credit dept?

 

[edet]

Thanks suena, will try calling tomorrow.

Anyway, regarding my earlier question on lighting points, there are 13 for 4 rooms from the brochure (no detailed location). Trying to figure out where they could be located. Minimum 1 in each room is confirmed. Wondering if balconies & yard will have a light point. Think 2 light points in living room will be given plus one along the corridor leading from living room to MBR.

 

[jacsmile]

Ern and Suena> Thanks for your welcome.

Already sent Grace a PM.

Leong&Ling> Ya. Even if I can afford, also personally prefer a small place. Don't have to clean so much.

Ed&Et> Think better call and ask. I'm getting bank loan so it's either 15 years or 30 years.

 

[elspeth]

i like 5-rm... =(

 

[adidas81]

elspeth> mai hiam la. got more $ next time buy condo or landed lor

 

[lilacbliss07]

Ed&Et.. wat is ur queue no?? so fast received the letter le ar?? then hw they noe ur loan amt?? they gt deduct the cpf and grant??

 

[elspeth]

suena> i don't understand what ya mean...i bought a 5-rm...

 

[sters]

wah its hot here again with all the discussion!

 

[elspeth]

yeah..in a way, thanks to rambutan888 for bringing back the hot discussion. =)

 

[sters]

hahah yeah elspeth~

 

[adidas81]

elspeth> oh rm for you. then why u sad/unhappy?

 

[elspeth]

I dunno. I guess I just feel that I wasted money just for more space? 5-rooms don't seem to be very popular here?

 

[sters]

hahaa

 

[sters]

no leh elspeth i also like 5 room!!!

 

[elspeth]

=P

anyone planning to put tv in the bedrooms? (since the bedrooms are so cramped?)

 

[sters]

i think i will hahah i cannot do without TV! most prob wall-mounted it. ehhe

 

[adidas81]

many like 5rm la. just cos of $ contraint i believe

 

[adidas81]

i also want tv but gf not supportive of the idea

 

[inzalid]

yup yup, i also would have selected 5rm if not for the price.

 

[inzalid]

i think mine, i would put the tv on the bay window in front of the bed in the mbr

 

[elspeth]

my bf doesn't want tv in the bedrooms too; said very anti-social.
so i told him...let's save money..don't buy tv. =P

 

[inzalid]

elspeth, you staying with your in-laws? that's y your bf feel anti-social right?

 

[adidas81]

nil> will be very bright leh. unless draw blind/curtain when watching la

elspeth> but install in bedroom doesnt mean hide inside ma.

 

[elspeth]

hm...nope
i'm not engaged yet!

my bf's family don't have televisions in their rooms but mine does. i guess it's just diff family beliefs or habits. =)

 

[inzalid]

sorry sorry, didn't ask properly. i meant, in future, you will be staying with your in-laws in PC?

 

[jacsmile]

elspeth> You've got more space since yours 5-room. I'm thinking of how to move all my things cos I have too many things currently. So got to maximise the space.

Won't have TV in the bedroom too. Just 1 good one in the living room. Tv on the bay window is a good idea. The agent at PC suggested that to me.

 

[elspeth]

nil> nope, just my bf and me. =)

i think tv on the bay window looks gd..but if u wanna watch tv in the daytime, u'll definitely need to draw the curtains/blinds cos the sun will be too bright..tons of reflections.

j & j> flea market! sell unused stuff!

 

[inzalid]

elspeth>> ooh, that's a surprise. i thought most ppl who bought 5rm are going to be staying with in-laws. wrong impression liao

 

[elspeth]

nil> hee...i want my private space!

 

[inzalid]

ideally, we will get 2 tvs, 1 in mbr, 1 in living rm.

most prob we'll only use the tv (in the mbr) at night before bed, for relaxing. otherwise should watch at living rm.

 

[inzalid]

envious woh elspeth...

 

[elspeth]

nil> nothing to be envious abt! i am envious of your high ceilings! hee. u'll have an amazing bookshelf lah!

i wonder if we can get the exact flat measurements once they start building.

 

[adidas81]

reminded me of the loft that we wanted.................

 

[happyern]

nil> only 2 of you stay there? Are you going to hire a weekend maid? I think your bookshelf will have a lot of dust wor... hard to clean..

 

[happyern]

I think my bf also want to mount the tv on the wall in mbr...

5 room > I also not going to stay with my in-law.

stersang > When you receive the letter, let me know.. coz my bf and me going for holiday for 7 days.. pls.. Thks!!!

 

[wcwtay]

to help pay for my hdb installment, i can help you clean the bookshelf every weekend,

cheap cheap 1 hr $50

past experiences - NS clean cupboard before.

 

[elspeth]

CJ> haha...hourly rate not good..you can take your own sweet time to do the chores to earn more money! daily rate better!

 

[sters]

sorry ern, wat letter u refering?

 

[sters]

suena, someone snatching ur rice bowl hahaa

 

[jazzing]

I have also selected a 5 room flat and not going to stay with my in laws or parents.

It is perferred to mount the TV on the wall to save space.

The lighting at the showflats looks good. Anybody knows how much is it to do it?

Thanks!

 

[happyern]
