  1. You are right ... to revamp an EM entirely, you hack everything out from the floor and walls. How much have you decided to spend so far?

    we are hoping to budget to no more than 100k including furnitures....most likely, we are engaging an architect interior designer to do up our place...which he charges $8k flat for designing fee....


  2. I also did not added a roof over the balcony. I just installed grill for children's safety. I want to plant some

    vegetables or plant on balcony, but too lazy to do till now. Just hung those washed staff in the balcony. I may install bamboo chit(DIY) to cover part of balcony because the sun light at noon time can partially into then living room from May to Aug.

    If you install a roof then your livingly room will be expended about 10sqm.

    Some ppl let balcony become a small garden, rest area to see newspaper with coffee or tea.

    but wat happens when it is raining heavily?


  3. My neighbor started renovation early mine about one month, and when I saw his renovation flat about had done 80% and upper floor re-design to make room seem bigger with walk in wardrobe. It quite nice but owner do not have kids. I also wanted to expanded common bath room but too late my contractor hav done the tile laying.

    It can be done, but may need HPD approval.

    Good Luck

    jackbotak,

    Thanks for your confirmation.....cos i only have a 12 year old son; therefore, it would be great to let him have the master room and we take over the 2 bedrooms.......


  4. oh that area...i used to consider there before but then, at that time, there werent any units for sale. I was looking at those ground floor EMs at blk 334 and 335. Hee.

    how is the condition of the place? original or renovated? 12th floor and next to corner is not bad imo.

    Finally I bought this EM at 336 jurong east.........the valuation is at $360k and I bought it at $420k.....hooray!


  5. in fact....the unit is in a move in condition but because we are very particular and intend to stay there for long, therefore, we would want to re-do the kitchen cabinets, kitchen and the 3 toilets....

    in fact, the rooms laminate flooring are still in very good condition but because the second owner lay over the tiles and if we want to built new wardrobes (from the 1st owner, then we will need to redo the whole place....


  6. Hi,

    Do you think it is too expensive to pay $420k for a EM in Jurong East? It is on the 12th foor, next to the corner unit and balcony facing afternoon sun but the main door is facing the PIE but there is a 4 storey flat before this block. Therefore, the noise is not very loud and can see the greenery.....

    No valuation done but agent says it is about $350 - 360k...
