Condos: Buy Now Or Wait?

Recommended Posts

Hi Jgal,

Definite safer, but not guarantee cheaper :)

Wife wanted "safer", I wanted "cheaper", so compromised get "fixed rate" at 2.48%.

The Scala over at Lorong Chuan MRT station had a sneak preview, so I headed over to take a peek since I live nearby. They haven't released the pricing yet, but they say, its about 1200 psf. *faint*

Was quite tempted to put in a cheque, but I think it's a wee bit out of my comfort zone.

This early morning drove to Rambutan Road, somewhere nears Chiku road, to see "Straits Residences" u/c site. Toadya VVIP launching , FH, 30 units, at psf$4xxx. Wow, nowonder at psf4xxx, so cramped. Why all this "boutique" houses built so near to each other?

Oh that area. Back in 07, I almost bought a unit at Fruition. Didn't really like the layout. Then, almost bought a unit at Vitra over at Tembeling Road. But, think too much ended up didn't buy.

So this Straits Residences, 400+ psf I guess, not 4000+ right?

Nobody want to rent there, if stay there would have strong felt "caught in between". Nerves will breakdown one day, sooner, or later.

My brother-in-law wanna sell Chiltern Park in Loring Chuan for 1.2 mil for 1600 sq ft ($750/sq ft)

Current on rental lease at $3000, will increase rent to $4000, when agreement expires.

Yup Q2 rental data just released,

Rentals have gone up, $4000 for Chiltern Park 3-bed is about right.

Haha I actually live in Chiltern Park too. But in a 2br unit. Now, finding it a bit small, and if I wanna have a family in future, it will definitely be too small. But, 3BR unit too expensive for me. Shold have bought a 3br unit instead last time when the prices were low. Guess have to shift out to another area.
