we are really lucky. Guess the Owner knew the difficulty in selling off the unit bcoz of the floor area and the fact that they knock down a wall.

Hey! Firstly congrats to ya.. Wow, I must say $15k Cov to $15k below Val is a big difference.. Lucky u didnt find any unit during the weeks between ur 1st viewing and the 2nd viewing.. Hmm, 75sqm seems very small.. Would like to see a original floorplan if you have one.. Hahaha.. Never seen one dat small before, maybe I'm sua ku like ashes02.. Hahaha..

wow you sure got a good buy. below valuation! so when 1st appt with HDB? where's Jln Tenteram btw?

Metalsubzero: yea, we were glad too! Actually i aimed for another in amk but my HB wasnt too keen coz of the parapet. In the end we went back to our first love :) Nah, you're not suaku... I am just as surprised. Lets hope HDB will 'upgrade' the area in near future!

Pinklady: Still waiting for the agent to advise on the 1st appointment. The owner is posted overseas so need time to arrange to return Sin. Jln Tenteram is in balestier area :)

It's at the Whampoa area. Flats are near the PIE, across one big canal.

big congrats for getting your love at first sight with good price!!!

can't wait to see the pics!

ashes02: there is no COV, hence no cash to owner :) Only the agent fee of 1% plus other HDB thingy (was it call Option To Purchase?), the valuation report, etc.

err...i mean wat's e valuation?

thanks for the clarification, tower ;)

ashes02: oooh, the valuation is at $355k

Congrats on your new home, a very convenient location and somemore 15k below value!

Looks like move-in condition too, so you still going to do some minor renovation?

thanks apples! Nah, we aren't gonna do any reno, getting a well-renovated house was in the plan so we do not need to fork out money to pay for it. Now is planning to fill up the house.. keke....

Okay, i have a list in mind of what we need to get: -

- Refrigerator

- Washing machine

- Dining table (4-seater)

- L-shaped sofa

- Ceiling fan

- TV console

- Fish tank

.... and these are what we shall get when our finance permits: -

- coffee table

- change the swing kitchen door to sliding type

- sofa bed

- doggie!

Yes, right on the spot! I should have thought of posting the url here... haha!

hehe.. after hearing your description, I thought this must be the one.

I was looking at it drooling but me and hubby decided against it as we prefer a bigger unit.

We were initially looking at Whampoa area cos it was near my mum's place but in the end, we got a unit near macpherson. ;)

congrats on your GREAT buy!! Can save alot of reno money and just spend on furnitures etc.

And you dun even have to pay COV.... so good....
