heyhey!! congrats!!! no worries abt the second appt date. u'll be so busy with looking for contractors and ids that time will fly in no time~

blue diamond, is our place that near balestier? sorry ar...my sense of direction is cannot make it de..

Yup actually there's only 5 weeks to go, somemore I will be overseas for a week before that so not much time.

So where is your place? I am familiar with the area so I can tell you if it's near or not

Here's my floor plan:

....

I like it because it's a point block so got privacy, and the rooms are all rectangular in shape so its easier to plan in both fengshui and practical sense.

Wah, your floor plan looks big, and it is definitely easy for planning.

I didn't know that there is point block for 4-room flat, now I know. Haha...

It's not that big, only 85sqm, so we need to make use of the place well. Yup I think there are not many point blocks previously, but think HDB is starting to build more nowadays. Anyway I heard that my block and the adjacent block was built as point blocks because they were originally for the en-bloc people staying at Whampoa's old point blocks, but in the end the deal did not go through so put back in the market.

I was previously looking at farrer park flats but one drawback was the odd shape rooms. Trying to upload some pis from the valuation report

Marcussy, I've also recently bought a flat in Jalan Tenteram .... So which block are u ?? Mayb we r neighbours hehehe ...

But my 1st appt will only be on 29th July. I've been looking around for contractors as well for the renov. Mayb if we happen to find the same ID or contractor can get a better discount hehe ...

Yeah! Hi there future neighbour! I am at Blk 19, how about you? Do you need to reno the whole hse or juz touch up only? I will be trying to get quotes from some contractors. Won't be getting an ID cos not doing the whole place but juz the toilets & kitchen floor so don't think necessary to pay the extra for design as we have some designs in mind ourselves. So hopefully the contractor can put our plans into reality.

Pics pics!

Yup that's right, so we are the m & m family....haha

hello...nice to know another couple call M&M....

do update us ya pic. soon

I am at Blk 16. The condition is ok but i guess we'll be revamping the whole hse though. As we wanted to do something we like instead. I'll be looking for contractor as well.... So do keep me posted if u've got good deals.... then perhaps can get better discount if we happen to use the same ....

guess we can gather a Jln Tenteram clan now... I'm in blk 17

Marcussy, congrats on your buy! Too bad where was no larger unit in that area when we were scouting. We saw our neighbour's and the living room was big and squarish.

More pics more pics!!

hello Marcussy and chipydale,

please count me in. but i'm far from being your neighbour. My future nest is in Sengkang.

I will be getting my keys in July. So far we only went to IMM and "steal" ideas from those IDs.

Ideas "stolen" are only layout. No one will draw the 3D for us to see wiithout having us to commit.

But read that IDs are so expensive. Contractors will be within our budget as we're revamping the whole house too.

Sure sure, I am scouting around. Tom will be going down expo for the home & decor exhibition just to have a feel of things. When you gonna start your reno?
