Hi Big Orange,

woww.. thanks for the info.. i thot supposed to be starting on the 15? anyway it doesn't matter =p... btw everyday the selection starts at 8am huh.. coz my at 9, so wonder how many units to shortlist first before my turns.. hehe..
Mine also early in the morning so i also dunno how much units to shortlist b4 my turn.. thats why i ask HDB this question loh.. tink 5 shd be more than enf right? Presume that there are applicants at 8am, 8.30am and 9.30am?
-
yeap. kitchen wall and floor tiles can be hack. buy why hack when you can overlay them? mine was done overlay and just need to ask the contractor to calculate accurately so you don't have to cut the gate when you overlay.HTH
oh ya hor..stupid me.. thanks!

Hi all Queenstowners selection pple this week ,
I called up HDB and highlight to them that the website listing is not the same as what we had in hard copy listing (eg Blk 91 Tanglin Halt not in the website etc). HDB say will look into this.
Btw, the first day of selection is on 14 May, with the first applicant at 8am and last applicant at 4.30pm daily.
-
hey guys...
thank you for the information... wow..i seriously din noe that got such rules..
so u guys did an overlay for all toilets and kitchen?
so which means the restriction is bound to toilets (both) tiles and flooring? The kitchen floors and tiles can hack izzit?
-
any tips for gd dates? heeehuh...i dunno l eh cos my date was picked one...
-
Hi all future neighbors ,
I like to find out something from you guys....
HDB has done up both the toilets with tiles and flooring when you guys purchase izzit? I like to know can we actually hack (remove the tiles and flooring)? Cos I went to Tanglin Halt today and one of the future neighbor at blk 89 told me tat cannot hack must wait for 3 years then can overhaul the toilets.. its that true??? HDB got such rule meh??
-

Not very nice hor...
Can also loh.. but hor gd dates might be taken up.....

my girl prefer to do it in a hotel environment. Maybe there lo.Hi big orange,
u may wanna go to this webby.. singaporebrides to get more information abt wedding preps... at the meanwhile, u can start email those hotels which you are interested in and get their solmization package pricing. So this can actually give u a kick start of how much is needed..
-
Pongy is right!U hv to show 'proof' that both applicants getting marry...
I heard from my HTB tt his colleague defer 1yr coz of one of the parent passed away so reli bobian...
I think they show them 'death' cert or watever la..
Hope it helps...
Hi, what i'm afraid is that HDB wont allow us to defer to > 1yr.. we have already book our hotel (end next yr) and if HDB die die dun allow that long deferment then how?? Get married early??
I got a lot of hurdles. One by one at the time.. i planning next year. But i booked my unit already. So at the mecy of them lo. They release earlier, i marry earlier?? that depend.. cos i want to get marry in 2009.. 2009/09/09 huat lah.Hey big orange,
If i;m not wrong 20 Sept 2009 is still in the lunar 7th mth. You may wan to double check in the calenders. Btw, alot of pple (including myself) have already book for next year's hotels. So if you wanna get married next year better hurry..if not all hotels will be fully booked (especially the hot dates)
-
Hi pongy,Can you keep me update on the defer matter? Cos i have the same enquiry as u.
Thanks.
Hi Big Orange,
Okie.. i will ask them when i go for selection next week and let you know of the out come. What i noe can defer lah.. in writting and have to support the deferment with hotel contract (to show the day you getting married). But can defer for how long i also dunno.
When is ur big day?
-
oh so u looking at level 30 and above huh... so ur dream block is 90..for me i still haven really look into the units i wanted.. betta not to aim coz scare of disappointment.. so i shall wait till the night before then starts to decided =p.. heehee...BTW i already married.. I know can defer but don't know for how long... for a few months should not a problem..
Hope only lah... tink with my Q no, definately cannot get level 30 and cannot get blk 90 lah... just hope only loh.. If have best lah, if dun have also no choice, choose the next best one loh
Mayb the defer part i ask HDB later.. thanks ya

Our journey to Tanglin Halt started one evening in 2006 when I “chin chai” asked my girlfriend whether want to spend $10 and apply for the flat (yes, typical of most Singaporean man but that was not my proposal, I did proposed to her when we got our flat ). Come to think of it, that evening also happened to be the last day for the balloting application, and lo and behold, we were not only successful with our application but also got quite a good queue number .This neighbourhood is not new to me. I spent my childhood days growing up here (at Tanglin Halt 16th storey), studied at New Town Primary School and mixed around with “the gangsters”, who btw were pretty notorious and plenty during those days. So, moving back here again was kind of nostalgic. Just the other day, I brought my wife-to-be to the 16th storey neighbourhood, showed her where I used to hang out.
We have completed our reno and moved in since Jan this year. Some pictures to share of our humble abode.

Hi can share your ID with me?

pongy.. you Q no so front sure can get a dream unit of urs.. no worry lah... you must bear in mind there are still other location for selection. Pple might take up holland since it's so hot as well. Not only that, there might be some pple in front u of who give up their chances due to steep prices etc... For mi, tho my no is 30 more than yours, I still very confident that i can get at least level 9.. so no worry =)BTW are you looking at level 30 and above izzit?
hi anise,
ya loh... HTB wants as high as possible... to him, level 15th and below considered low already! (Buay tarhan him) tink by our turn we cant get level 30 and above lah.. so try to aim as high as possible. Actually, we like Blk 90 better, but tink by our turn, all good units in that blk will be gone...since that is considered one of the hottest blk among the 3 blks Will see how it goes ... cant wait for the selection day!
Btw, u ROM already? Dunno if HDB can defer until end of next yr for ROM cert a not.. hmm...
-

Hi sg007,
Thanks thanks!
-
hi all,we have gotten the package from HDB liao. our date is on the 15th... yah they do have a few more units added.
Hi sq007,
Mind sharing with me which are the 'new' units at tanglin halt and Stratmore? Izzit alot to be listed here?
pongy..yalo.. so strange.. mine is 16 may, 3.30pm.. urs?
maybe u are the 1st applicant on 17th?
I dunno if i'm the first a not leh... what time is the first applicant 8.30am? 9am??? funny...hmm.. \aiyah, why HDB website din list all the units??
-
Hey pongy,yah.. I realised that they release more unit, initially 5rm Queenstown is 89units available but now is 97
units! but I can't identify which one is the extra one.. anyone aware?
I tik some SERS ppl gv up their unit suddenly... hmmm...
Shall we inform each other once we got the package??
Hi funfun,
Sure sure will let u noe when my HTB got the package...
ya so i'm anxious to know which are the additional units.. i managed to find 4 'new' units (in Tanglin Halt) and last sat i kpo..went down to take a look at these 4 'new' units, and pleasingly, they are juz like other new units... So really dunno y pple gave up their chances. But dun care lah, as long as the condition is gd.. the more pple give up the better right?? cos it means we have more units to choose from!!
I din bio 5rm ones so cant tell u which are the new units. Btw, i tink there are some additional new units from Blk 91..
U got the same Q no as me right?? How come ur appt is 16th?? Tot HDB serve the same no of applicants every day?? That is funny..hmm
-
Hi seraphinee,
Thanks for your information! Woah din know that HDB can make such error!
Hi funfun,
Mine is on 17th. Hey like what seraphine said, we better make sure the package gets send to us..if not have to bug them! Btw, i tink there are more units than what is shown on the web (this info i learn from sgbride forum). So i'm anxious to know what are the "xtra" units that are available. You may wan to take note of this too!
-
Hi, has anyone received the package from HDB (Queenstown)? I heard that there are some units from Blk 91, is that true? But the website doesn't indicate any leh.. can someone enlighten me?? Thanks
-
i too tink that the high cost will actually turn some pple off. in fact, the price is real steep.. if really take one of the unit there, I will be the slave of the house for life..lolBTW the appointment date is out already. my appointment is on the 21st.. tink will start on the 19th May..go check and update here=)
hey i got my appt date also. mine is 17th..so i dun tink it start on the 19th.. mayb its gg to start on 12th or 14th. Nevertheless, dun care which date they start lah..as long as there are still flats available for us will do!
