Resale Flat Inspection Before 2nd Appointment
basically any illegal modifications to the house have to be rectified. other things like cracks or broken tiles, if its there when u sign the otp, they dun have to rectify. general rule is, as long as the crack is at a visible location (ie. not covered) they dun have to mention it during viewing.

Granite Or Solid Surface?
If your SS and granite top are of different colour, it may be harder to find a neutral colour in between for your cabinets. but i'm not a designer.. so i may be wrong. otherwise, i dun see any problem with having both. If your washing area cabinet is just for storage purposes (I'm assuming service yard area) u can even consider laminate top which is very much cheaper

Granite Or Solid Surface?
depending on the ID u go to. some IDs quoted me same price for granite and LG solid top. unless u go for other brands of solid top, makes more sense to go granite if its the same price as LG

How Many Years U Take To Pay Mortgage Loan?
imo, its better to take max term (ie: 30 years) and if you have spare cash/cpf, do a partial repayment to reduce the installment amount or term. At least there is more flexibility

Pricing In Tiles
from what i was told my multiple IDs. using 30x60 in the kitchen/bathroom increases the chance of having uneven flooring due to the larger size of the tiles. thus creating water pockets. better to use 30x30 for kitchen/bathroom flooring. cheaper too

i recently viewed a showflat by and ID in which the owner requested to shift the toilet bowl. they did it and built a box to cover up the piping. as a result, u get to use a wall mounted bowl in HDB. very nice effect. altho its very illegal by hdb standards. i dunno about the flushing problem tho

Induction Hob (30a)
13amp plug is the normal 3 pin plug we are using for our electrical appliances. The apartment having 60amp is the total value and not indicative of the plug. Singapore only has 2 types of sockets 13amp and 15amp (used for aircon with 3 round pins). If the hob requires a 13amp plug, then u can just plug it into any 3 pin plug in the kitchen for the hob to function.
