Buying Recess Area
pinkpetter replied to pinkpetter's topic in Housing Rules, Policies and Procedures
When HDB has informed you of the costs through that letter.. they HAVE NOT approved yet. You have to move your electrical and water meters and let them inspect before they approve anything. Thus after receiving the letter, you can choose to keep quiet and not buy the place. Application (enquiry for price) is free and to be done online through your MyHDB page. -
mmm this per point thing is still cheap ah.. if have to yank out from across the ceiling and change that's the MOST ex! Yes.. let the next guy do it man. ya I think condo should be "safer" in a way ba
-

no... so sad... lol -
For your house it's not so bad cos you have the false ceiling and all. mine doesn't have so cannot put this light...
-
The dining lights are uber nice lor. When we were buying I kept staring at them. The A LIghting shop guy was so nice he kept turning it on and off for me to see... but I cannot buy... My mom insisted no crystals in the house. And it was too dim. You lucky girl! hahahah I cannot sit on the sofa! I want to explore the house!!
-
YAY congrats on getting keys!!
-
ya... i think budget more impt. and put there no one will know if it's new or old model also. unless I say la... lalala I also love how it is comfortable. My parents now actually resort to NOT sitting on the sofa cos they don't want to fall asleep during their favourite show. hahahahaha Yuppers... hehe chairs were very cheap though. $25. Oh yes the Utby legs come in normal heigh also... cheaper at $20+ each.
-
seasoned? hehe wah... no la. mm Mine was 20 years and i didn't rewire also leh. A complete rewire (taking out ALL the wires in the ceiling) will probably set you back $3-6k? From what I've seen quoted around. I've been told by a number of contractors that as long as you don't disturb the wires in the ceiling there isn't a problem. Electricians can check if there's leakage anywhere... ask them to do it. If there isn't any problems and the wires are in good condition then SAVE MONEY! Anyway how long do you intend to stay?
-
hahah aiyah I just kidding la.. she dun have time to entertain a big baby like me LOL. Maybe I can pretend to offer to clean her house. hahahah
-
hehe ya mine was older model... also 3 seater + L PU soft at 900+ but old model so cheaper.
-
heheh pai seh pai seh.. but think ashes answered for me? From IKEA! mmm legs were $39 each I think and top was $25. Mmmm I have a warning though... The Utby legs have four holes for the screws. They are adjustable from 80-120 cm. But the table top I use.. it's the Vikka one which is meant for legs with 5 screw holes. My contractor helped me drill the legs down. The Utby legs actually has a matching table top. But that table top is meant to be (one side) mounted onto the wall... with one side straight and the other end curved. So we didn't get that one.
-
haha ya seems like i really can. Think Uncle's Saturdays are better. try tomorrow?
-
ye... if don't need to change then save it first ba... I also think of changing my mattress next time. Live with it first. BUDGET!
-
WHOA the kitchen... WHOA... I would find it hard to contain my surprise if I viewed the flat... mm one of the more contrasting kitchens I've ever seen. **edit** on hindsight... it reminds me of Ikea..
-
Sharp eyes meh??? Your many lights all blingbling off the shiny floor! how not to see! hhehe mrspiglet.. we can go drool together. I want a sleepover. hahahahha
-
yaaaa but one person brighten up my day.... would never expect him to call.. UNCLE SOON! hahha he called to tell me that he received news that the water and electricals are done and he can submit the renovation plans already! Which he will be doing soon. Uber happiness.
-
If you propose to him yourself of cos cannot la. you call your technical officer to find out more. She also will help you if need to sign agreement or what. And the seller MUST give you the money by second appt. FYI, if you took a loan (any loan) for your flat you cannot delay completion. There is a penalty for it... unless you take HDB one and HDB is lenient with you, waiving it off for you. Banks will not be so kind though. Time to be tough. otherwise the one who suffer is you wor... follow born_again's instructions ba.

Your house is looking so good! but that window problem is such a spoiler. mm honestly I'm very chin chai so I will accept that lock but if you really cannot, now's the time to say. So nice and shiny now your tiles!

-
mmm but ikea is prolly not the only place that sells these... risis why don't you show the wardrobe people this and ask them if they can get it for you?
-
haiz and they got some efficient award recently.... haiz.. She suddenly and quietly appeared outside... and didn't tell us she was there.. our door was open. Luckily my mom went out to water her plant a little and she saw a woman outside looking at our meters. Then we knew she came. I guess the least she could have done was to tell us she was here. well at least that part's done.
