Haha, cannot have too many room, wait future inlaw come n stay with us. Did think of hacking. Currently every renovation item that we going to do is the basic. If the condition is not so bad, our initial plan was just rewiring and paint whole house only. We have only view the flat twice. So at this moment and hopefully only these few items need to be done. 1) rewiring whole flat 2) refurbish kitchen and 2 toilets 3) build in wardrobe for master bedroom and kids room 4) L box in living n dining room to cover the ugly pipes 5) paint whole house 6) varnish 3 bedroom parquet Since we don't have our place now. So every furniture,electronic and even utensils have to buy new one. Nothing to bring over. Siong ah

Thanks for viewing my Blog and the encouragement. Yup times are bad. So on the following post, Whichever item we purchased. It confirm is the lowest price that I can find in Singapore or Malaysia. Haha. We did a lot of comparison and since electrical stuff are all warrant by their brand dealer so we just grab whoever offer the lowest price. regards Liang

Since I'll be the one doing the cooking. So selection of Hood and Hob will be my Call. Hood - Fujioh FX900 for its well received comments of good performance n Hob- FG 792SS for its simplicity

I'm not really good in computer or designing. This is the best I can get from Floor planner. Since we just want to keep the house simple and no fanciful design like "TV feature wall, Designer cabinet "etc.. we decided to find some contractor to do some touch up and we can move in le. But on the 2nd visit to the flat. We found that there's alot of crack line on the kitchen and toilet wall and the interior of the cabinet looks kind of bad. Bobianz. Now must stretch my budget to do up the toilets and kitchen. After meeting up with a few contractor and ID that was recommended by Renotalk. We decided to sign up with Mr Jimmy Tan of 3D innovation. Hope all the best to my renovation Journey

tampoi lighting shop at no 2, Jalan Titiwangsa 3/1, taman Tampoi indah or starworld lighting further down the street. ( I bought light from both shop but i still prefer tampoi lighting as they hav more varieties in lights, kdk fan and even hav a shop selling only Philip light)

Hi, Can try Tampoi lighting or starworld lighting. Both in the same stretch of building. If you want Philips light, Tampoi lighting is also the authorized dealer for Philips, they even have a shop just displaying Philips lights. tampoi lighting shop at no 2, Jalan Titiwangsa 3/1, taman Tampoi indah or starworld lighting further down the street.

This is the Floor plan. Its so difficult to find a house that both of us likes. The killer part was that the location must be near where our kids were studying. So the choice is limited. But thanks to the Almighty up there. We finally found one after umpteen numbers of flat searching.

Hi all, Initially thought of writing this blog only after I get my key on 22/5. But since free today, why not just start it. First off all, Thank you guys & gals. I've learned really a lot from Renotalk. You guys and gals are great. Thanks for all the sharing and guidance that I've learn over the times. To start off, Allow me to have a short intro. Both me and my wife to be were divorcees with kids. So most part of the renovation will be more on functionality rather than visual design. And of course, will be super small budget since we got others commitment to fulfill. And since my English is private limited, most of the post will be picture only. Hope you guys/gals will like it and paisei for the low budget still want renovation. Regards Liang

Hi, Just for sharing, I got 2 super single bed with mattress for my kids at S&C furniture shop. They have a lot of design to choose and so far they offer the best package for single bed. Or if you want more "branded" one. Just saw at the furniture expo. Lotus brand selling a single bed divan with mattress at $699. Regards Liang

I really like your bright. Colour

I saw this at singapore Cosway. $26. Looks nice

Erm, Sorry to confuse u, i read thru ur post again. Are you selling a "new" hdb and applying for another "new" hdb on 2nd time hdb loan. If that is so, i don't think u need to pay cash proceeds, only need to pay resale levy. Its best to check with HDB. Just go to the HDB at TPY. Request to see the sales officer( dont bother to talk with the counter, i got different answer from them) Hope this post helps

Hi, I don't think hdb will consider the amount u going to pay for your new flat. For my case, hdb base on the cash proceed i get after selling my flat. Just apply for the HLE and you will know the exact amount, it will b stated on the the HLE. Regards Liang

I also got a fridge, washer, dryer n vacumn from the expo sales. Did you get the extended warranty? Your bargain power is good. I talk till i sianz, they also don't give me free delivery😒

U mean me? Mine will start in 3 weeks time. Now waiting for the 3D plan. Will update the renovation progress then. You can also start seeing the other flats he is doing now to get idea and a feel of their workmanship.He is more than willing to bring you to the flat he is currently renovating. Regards Liang

Yup, 7% GST

Hi, Can i know what is *spam? Is it a company? I just bought a kdk vk60. Seems that only vk series suits hdb becos of low ceiling. Thanks

Yesterday just go in to JB to buy lightings n ceiling fan n toilet accessories.The price is mostly half or more than half compare to Singapore. Recommend this 2 shops in JB; 1) lightings- tampoi lighting shop at no 2, Jalan Titiwangsa 3/1, taman Tampoi indah or starworld lighting further down the street. ( I bought light from both shop but i still prefer tampoi lighting as they hav more varieties in lights, kdk fan and even hav a shop selling only philip light) 2) toilet stuff- aldeco living at sutera mall (great service) Then for the tax to b paid at singapore custom.They had increased the amount per person can bring in; Less than 48hrs in Malaysia, a person is entitle to bring back 150 dollar of merchandise. Previously is 50 dollar,if I'm not wrong Regards Liang

Update on the progress on my renovation with 3D innovation. As usual, he meet me right on time at the tiles shop. Tiles selection really kills lots of of brain juice. I spend nearly 3 hrs selecting the tiles for my toilets n kitchen. Shag!!!! I must thank Jimmy for his patience and not calculative. Some of the tiles exceeds the price range in my package, but he says ok, he can absorb the small difference. I'm still amazed by his attitude and professionalism. He told me anytime when I'm free, can just go to the flat he is doing now, to get a feel of the tiles "in whole" feels.(Some of the tiles that I've selected is the same as the flat he is doing now) Til now, Jimmy of 3D innovation really impresses me. Will write a blog when Reno starts Regards Liang

Oh yah, as for selling flat. I sold my flat few years back, at that time market rate is 2 % and to sign exclusive. I told my agent that if he manage to sell within my expectation price, i will give him 1%, 5k beyond my expectation then will be 2%. Perhaps u can use this method.
