balcony?????!!?????

My understanding, HDB officer reply is correct. Is there reno insurance? I did not know has such insurance. Can share more information about this insurance.

My suggestion. Check with HDB. Don't depend on forum reply. Not all HDB unit is the same. member "A" unit can do it , does not mean your unit can do it

ask HDB first. It is not that simple like plumbing works and stuff. The waste pimp? Sewerage System? Toilet has extra PUB charge.

why paint? how to wash the wall and floor? the paint will never fall off?

Agree This sharing suggestion is open a can of worm.

what do your husband think? who bring up this suggestion?

seller liable. Seller need to remove it. Or else, HDB will not proceed.

first, does HDB approve this double glazed glass windows?

When sale person tried to show me their sale record like this unit and that unit in the same block has take up the order. I will automatic shut down... Not interesting. when I was teenager (still in sec sch), I open door to such sale man and cause my mother place deposit. And my dad was angry b'coz they over charge my mother. from that onward I learn a lesson. Never open door to anyone, if he or she start to ask u to sign up sth. Even singtel person come out my block to promote fibre plan .. said got special package , etc.. I also don't want.. I told them.. i will sign up directly with Singtel if I want.. even don't have this and that waive or free.

http://news.asiaone.com/news/singapore/two-lose-hdb-flats-renting-them-tourists Consider this a warning for those thinking about making a quick buck from renting their homes to short-term visitors. Two home owners have lost their flats after the Housing Board found they had let out their units to tourists. Home-rental websites like Airbnb and Roomorama have become more popular here. The founder of Roomorama, Ms Teo Jia En, told The Straits Times last month that the website had some 500 listings for Singapore properties, which is an increase of 30 per cent from last year. A search on travelmob turned up more than 630 local listings, and another portal, Airbnb, has more than 1,000. But these flout HDB and Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) regulations, which state that when a home (HDB or private) is leased out, it must be for at least six months. Though there have been complaints in the past, and the housing authorities have investigated thousands of cases, this is the first time that HDB has revealed it has taken the step of booting out home owners for the infraction. While the agency would not say when it took back the executive flat in the east, and the four-room flat in the west, it did say that its investigations proved the owners had leased out the flats to multiple tourists for between $25 and $75 per night. It also issued a warning to one more flat owner in the central part of Singapore. According to its spokesman, an errant home owner can also face a financial penalty. The HDB investigated 184 cases of short-term leasing in public flats last year. It investigated 106 cases the year before. A spokesman for the URA, which has oversight over private dwellings, said that in the first four months of this year, it investigated 350 cases of "unauthorised use" of private properties. Last year, it investigated 2,100 such cases, which included instances where home owners turned their apartments into dorms for foreign workers. Private homeowners who flout the six-month minimum rule face a maximum fine of $200,000 and a jail term of up to 12 months. Said the URA spokesman: "Some home owners are turning their homes into boarding houses and leasing rooms out for a couple of days to generate quick income from spaces they can spare." But most other home owners do not want to live among transient strangers, the spokesman added. An HDB spokesman said other residents felt the frequent change of occupants would pose security concerns.

http://news.asiaone.com/news/singapore/first-company-found-guilty-defamation-third-party Samantha BohMyPaperThursday, Apr 03, 2014 Desperate to sink a competitor, a jewellery company resorted to buying accounts from users of a popular Internet forum and using them to post comments casting doubts on its competitor's products. On Feb 25, Vivo Diamonds was ordered by a court to pay rival company JannPaul $85,000 in damages and costs. It is the first reported case of a company being found liable for online defamation made through a third party. In October 2012, Vivo posted an advertisement on the online forum Gumtree titled "Make Money. Sell your hardwarezone forum userid". Up to $200 was promised for accounts over three years old. Vivo received a total of 98 e-mail messages in response to to the advertisement. Of these, Vivo picked two accounts - "feitonglong" and "sacredsoul" - which, according to court documents, were used to make "serious allegations" against JannPaul. Using the "feitonglong" handle, Vivo posted three messages on Hardwarezone under the thread "Wedding Bells, Proposal Ring Part 2" which claimed that a diamond ring purchased by the user and his fiancee was of "poor craftsmanship". He said that the $8,000 diamond ring had been worn for only five months and that JannPaul "should be responsible" as the diamond had fallen off due to shoddy handiwork. He also added that his fiancee was devastated and he did not think he would dare to patronise JannPaul again. Separately, under the name of "sacredsoul", Vivo posted six messages, this time making claims that JannPaul had engaged in deception or misrepresented its products, by removing inclusions - which are impurities in a diamond - and reshaping the heart and arrow designs of a diamond in photographs sent to him. Part of his posts read: "The amount of contrast in the photos is disturbing. It would be better to request from them a non-edited photo of the real diamond and compare the difference." Another read: "Editing the photos, removing the undesirable to create beauty and attraction, that to me is just not right." Vivo had also purchased a third Hardwarezone account - that of forum moderator "Xjedi" - to delete replies from JannPaul, as well as ban its accounts, to "skew the Hardwarezone forums to its advantage". Vivo's actions came to light after JannPaul hired a digital forensic specialist to investigate the identity of the forum users behind the defamatory comments. With the help of RP Digital Security and Gumtree, JannPaul contacted individuals who responded to the advertisement, as well as tracked down the IP address of the advertiser behind the advertisement - which was discovered to be Vivo. The court also granted an injunction to JannPaul, restraining Vivo from further writing, printing or publishing of the messages made under "feitonglong" and "sacredsoul" or similar words that would be defamatory to the former. The co-founder of JannPaul, Ms Jann Tan, called the past few months "extremely hard and stressful". "These defamatory posts undermined the trust consumers have in our brand," said Ms Tan. "We are relieved that this issue has finally come to an end and that our names have been cleared". samboh@sph.com.sg

ask yourself a question If you are the boss of the reno company, will u give reno loan to a stranger who can't get a reno loan from bank. reno company only has licence to reno, not license to operating/provide loan.

No. Seller agent only can collect commission from seller. As u didn't have any agent represent you and seller agent are there to serve the seller (seller is the one who paid seller agent commission) Do all the paper work yourself. Don't know. Go to HDB web and read up. Read already, still don't know then attend HDB session that they had for buyer who want to DIY. Has english session and chinese session. If, still don't know. Then no one can help you except u get a agent to do all the paper work for you. U can offer whatever value you want, want to take up ur offer or not. It is up to the seller. Solid line in the floor plan mean cannot whack.

ur delicacy is which part of Vietnam? Northern, central and southern Vietnam has different taste even on same disc. I tried Pho on Northern and southern Vietnam. But the taste totally different. I prefer Northern Pho more.

that's the part , some buyer don't understand. They only think of COV but never look at the whole picture (total purchase price)
