Jonas: u no need to bring anything when u go collect ur keys... i just proceed to level 2 buy ur house insurance and open a account for ur electicity....
Ya... my house is bare one.. didnt take the tiles and doors from HDB.. so i wld need EVERYTHING.. the quote for 16K and above are for everything including carpetry, tiles, painting, electrical works and plumbing works... but i've not confirm anything yet.. still 'shopping' around...
Finally, I've just gotten my HLE letter today and the deadline is 10th June.. wondering how long before I will be able to collect the keys..
Anybody knows if only 1 of the party is able to collect the key from HDB and apply for the house insurance, as the other party is not able to make it?

Hi Nichiyobi
Cannot judge if it's expensive or not.
Maybe your friend is proposing quality solid wood for the worktop? Then $250 is consider OK... 100 per feet for the cabinet and 150 for the woodtop. But the top drawers doesn't need worktop... so you might wanna find out more from your friend's qoute.

i saw them having reno loan at 3% interest which is very low than usual 8%. Anyway u already sign the loan? Did they do a valuation of the new flat? Cuz hdb couldnt answer me a Q. In event those who loan from bank unable to pay instalment, will the bank take possess of the flat and sell it? Cuz if the bank sell it to open market, that is worth 280k to 300k, but we brought it at only 180k avg. If the bank loan, they taking the 180k as 100percent or 180/280percent? That will affect the loan interest rate. Have u tot abt it?
Hi Nichiyobi
1) I had apply the loan but the bank still in processing stage;
2) For the valuation of new flat, I told the bank, I won't know the value as this is a totally new flat, they say they will check it by themselves then.
3) Yes, if unable to pay the loan to the Bank, the bank will take over the flat & sell it off. So, it is advisable to loan from HDB than Bank if you can.
4) Maybank did not restricted the loan figure, unlike other bank, which must be minimum $100K. In fact, Maybank now got promotion, 3yrs fixed rate which apply to all loan figure, regardless you loan less or huge.
You may check with Maybank, they can give you a much clearer picture than me

cherylkjh,
oh... so you only doing fridge/washing machine base and the kitchen cabinets?
Have you tried checking out other contractors?
maybe you can try getting quotation from tau interior and compare from there.
I've received tau's quotation and find their price reasonable. The uncle is very nice, helped me check my house's defects and gave alot of advices for aircons etc. not pushy at all.
Am considering between him and another contractor.
