continued from the resale flat featured here: The floor plan: - Look at where the rubbish chutes & wall dividing the Dining area. - See also the red lines which I drawn & see how it 'cut' the owners sleeping on the bed in the Master Bedroom. - See also how many missing and sharp corners in the house. Now you have 'learnt' from what I mentioned here, Will you buy this house?

Staircase near units is very common...but there is still a way to work around it. For the narrow passage way for residents to pass by to throw their junks, it is really bad! While I was there 2nd time (last Saturday) to take the outside pictures, my sister and I saw personally how a resident carry the thrash to that house! I decided to post this audit for the benefits of prospective home owners...moreover, my sister $1K will be confiscated...for a lesson learnt here!

CSI Solving the Mystery..... 1st Victim ~~~~ the staircase! How to tap the Qi?? (I took this picture standing at the lift lobby - virtual Qi pool). 2nd Victim ~~~~~ the rubbish chute! You see, neighbours carry rubbish to your house every day!!! Can die or Not?? Sure Mati if met with bad annual influence star no matter how good the stars are at door steps. Stay tuned...I will upload the floor plan later.

My sis current place is like what you mentioned, with rubbish chutes beside lift. But the rubbish chute & lifts are at the centre of block. But the featured resale flat, you will faint when you see the photo later.

Good guess, but rubbish chute is in a even worse place! If blocked by wall, you won't get to see Neighbours dumping the debris!! This house is really "Alamak", suay!! My house also have rubbish chute, but it is at the back near toilet.

Rubbish chute has something to do with the main entrance. Look at where the main door is from the picture. I will post the picture tomorrow & it says it all. My sister committed to buy on impulse looking only the nice renovation....totally bowed over by the A1 decor, and it is a good buy if she didn't experience the tingy sensation on her palms.

Lift lobby, playground, open space can consider Virtual pool where Qi gathers. Owner is not fs believer ....I plot the flying stars chart of the house to analyse & found the reason but to protect their privacy, cannot disclose here. They may have found the parquet floor not suitable & house is very hot during the day.

Hi, Drexter Thank you for your update & I sincerely hope that Donny is able to meet your budget. At what stage are you now? Key collected?

Extreme Makeover @ Pandan Gardens
another Pass for your fs guessing.... A sector with vibrant Qi is missing in addition to several missing corners in the house due to Odd layout. The front door with bad flying stars. Kitchen is also located in the wrong sector.

Bro, you guess both almost right wo!! A rubbish chute but not really facing it....but as bad!! You can start guessing where the rubbish chute? Canal with water is very close too....but is virtual water flow.

We Bought A Flat, And Made It Our Home
No doubt I am a 'bad' & fussy customer, but I am a very nice house owner! I buy the workers lunch everyday! Even I can't make it back on time, I will ask one tiler to pay for the lunch & claim from me. Then, on Xmas eve, I ordered Pizza delivery for the workers as I had lunch treat with my colleagues. I even buy boxes of chocolates for all workers including the tiler Boss. So, until now, you visit my blog & understand why the tilers are willing to redo the groutings so many round, and the boss even came personally last Saturday!

Hihi, When I saw this thread with the caption and a familiar name, I recalled your house audit & the "GUI men guan". Hope you have found a solution to it. Wishing you a smooth reno journey.

I let this mystery alive for now....see any one from Bt Panjang can guess it right? 2 for External forms, and one internal forms: External forms means structure formation outside the house, and interior forms relate to sectors of the house. Stay tuned ok....maybe I disclose tomorrow if nobody guess it right....

I have seen many well renovated house & this resale unit is really awesome & good quality finishes. By the way, their kitchen used the same thickness laminate as yours. Good!

Lift? Lift opening at door nearby is still considered Auspicious if you know how to tap the Qi flow & traffic. This unit is not so lucky wo...

Why my sister approached me for help: When she spent 2 hours viewing the flat on a late Thursday evening, she came home and felt that her hands starting to feel like something is burning, very warm. So, the next morning, sensing that could be something wrong with the house, she texted me on Friday night. Initially, like most others, she is not so enthu on feng shui thingy and doesn't believe in such....but, seeing her both hands become 'reddish' and warm sensation on Friday, she became frighten and asked me for help. Why her hands become so 'hot' after barely 2 hours in the 'new' house? Reasons being: 1. For all her life, she has been staying in her flat with marble floorings. So, this is her current living room (sold at $58K COV) 2. everything is cool cool...even Marble dining table Then, the 'new' house is facing afternoon sun, and worst still, the whole house is parquet flooring and wood absorbs heat! When I walk over the floor, I could also feel the warmth.... So, this is the problem with the house flooring at first instance. But, when I visited the house, I find more reasons to reject for feng shui reasons...this is one of the major flaws NOT NOT to buy!! Not sure if I should disclose here...as most people will come across such feature from the moment I exit from the lift to the interior of the house layout...and so far only in Bukit Panjang!

continued from above (post-reno) Living room.. Until the tiler BOSS also came in the afternoon to see because he can't believe his 2 men need to take so much time at my place! The groutings of this grey wall tiles had many different tones after chemical wash - grey, black & white. So, I asked the tiler to redo the whole wall. The tiler Ah Lim has to scrap off the old groutings before filling them. ...including the pillar which white groutings were not filled to the fullest! Then, the tiler brought the wrong color powder for the beige colour flooring...I cannot accept and the beige flooring is still left undone. Supposed to come back today to complete it, but I text the tiler to return tomorrow because the Wall paper for my eldest son has arrived and they will come to install tomorrow. So, I might as well take half day leave tomorrow to supervise both. So....I am fussy fussy fussy?? I know you will say that to Me.

Back to my post-reno discussion okay? The photographs of WIP last Saturday. Cutting the piece of rejected tile which warped outward: The mess.... For the first time, grant access to the 'Restricted room' of youngest son to touch up the groutings! ....and they touch up groutings of whole house again!! to be continued...

To be fair to owner and other potential home buyer & agent, I won't disclose the reasons for now. Here again more pictures..... The Impressive Main Entrance with Digital Lock c/w finger print recognition features. The panaromic scenic view...unblocked!! Such a beautiful house which is designed personally by the male owner who is a Principal of a renowned Design House, whose clientele are retailers including the international furniture store and established international mobile giant!! He travels frequently to these customers to provide design consultancy for their flag ship overseas stores. He spent over $60K on the renovation alone, and this amount is COST only, no mark up! So, my sister offered $60K COV, which is as good as $0 COV. I accompanied my sister and BIL to view 5 houses yesterday in Bukit Panjang, and most of them are asking min $30K to $45K, and needs major renovations!! So, the house featured here is really really a very good buy! When my sister arranged with the agent & owner for my visit, I was stunned to see the designer house...and still Loving it! But WHY I say Nah??
