[mystique_j 0]

Don't think our plc got such lines. I mean there are some vertical lines but not afew in a str8 row like dat and no horizontal lines...

Went to submit our defects list today and activated our PUB. Oh ya.. check yr doors as well. Mine, the bottom part of the doors, abit peeling and the lock is fixed in terribly, like they just shove it in, got cracks n not aligned with the door..

we are also waiting endlessly for our key collection too. But maybe this month end, we could hear from HDB (i hope)

Anyone had an idea on when we can get keys? Mine is 359B. Thanks.

hi all and to angelwrath,

you can view 468+ blks at this thread

http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?sh...2257&st=160

its the round blk with blue window.

to update all, we went for the HDB sale earlier this year. We went to look at the showflat, decided whether we like it or not and went to register our application online.

den we were given a letter to go to HDB to choose the unit that we want. before we do that, we went there a few times to look at which blk and units that we aim for.

we chose our unit during june. we got a letter to go HDB for down payment in mid july and we gotten the keys on that day.

we went there to check out the unit, write down the defects that we microscoped as we only have 7 days grace to submit our defect list.

den town council contacted us and made an appt to meet at our unit with the contractor to rectify the defect (which the officer at town council delayed abit).

now have to wait for contractor to come back and rectify next week.

now still in the process of shortlisting renovators lor

hope next time when i shifted in, we can get together more often

duno leh... maybe that time too many empty units available when i apply that time, there are at least 500++ units in sembawang areas, esp the blk 468+ areas

spoil for choice and location. so we juz ham tam lor

but i think there are criteria to meet, esp if you are 1st timer or not. we are vy lucky coz our unit's tilings color co-ordination is well match, no major defects, no tiles crack, even wall plastering was good, seating toilet bowls are in good condition, no leakage, not much dirt or rubbish in the toilet or anywhere else, windows and doors are closed, no hairline crack even. juz that the lock of the main gate is no good.

i simply like the full wall tile at kitchen and toilet, where there are flower border patterns in blue and the background is white. the toilets floor tiles are in a darker shade of blue, about the same color as the banner in this forum (refer to the banner where it state 'Any Sembawang Homers?'). the kitchen floor tiles are in a lighter shade of blue than the toilet, and its about the same color as the surrounding background when you are replying in the forum. the kitchen and toilet wall tiles are in white with blue flower border patterns type. and the rest of the floor tiles, living and bed rms, are in white.

gates are painted in ivory, could be white initially and after so long of vacancy, it become ivory

as for the door, its a dull shade of blue, which looks exactly like this emoticon which i dun like, will repaint it.

i will try to upload some pics later

my current projects that i have completed currently, but not yet decided:

- i have checked out abt 28 renovators ... i know, i know, even my hubby also can't believe it and complain also

- went to joo chiat, bedok, jurong to check out curtain prices

- went to hoe kee, genova, sim chang choon, song cho, poh joo, and all along jalan berseh areas to check out kitchen and sanitary wares prices

- also went to along jalan berseh + kelantan areas to check out lighting prices

still need to go and shop shop look look

erm... i think that its consider 2nd appt. 1st appt is go there to chose the unit and pay the downpayment. den letter cum vy fast which is out of our expectation. den when go HDB 2nd time, they give the keys after signing tons of papers lor but this 2nd appt cum vy fast

the reason on why we were shock is that currently we have a house and we need to sell the house after renovation, and we din expect that it will cum so fast lor

juz like wat i say, maybe that time those blk 468+ too many leftovers and many are aiming for those blk 300+ as they are nearer to MRT

and also mine is a corner unit, maybe some ppl also dun want lor

and also may i ask if you are 1st timer

1st timer can get faster i think

think corner unit alot of ppl snatch lor. and yup we are 1st timers, not sure abt the speed though

izt? why ppl want corner unit? easy to escape?

anyway, as the blk is round, it is hard to get alot of wind and sun from the main gate. but ours is juz nice facing the roof, meaning its half round type, and as for the sun, it shine in from the balcony at a slanting angle, never directly into the hse, and its the morning sun that we are getting. so by afternoon it will start to cool down and by night time, it will be cooler. i guess nowadays the new hses all like that one. hard to get gd ventilation unlike those older flats, esp those point blks.

i have many friends who live in sengkang and pungol areas and the flat are so near with the flat interior being very squarish, most of their flats are quite warm with little wind / ventilation. but maybe for those higher flr units, they may get more ventilation as in one of my friend's case.

i duno, there are pros and cons, the sengkang and pungol flats are much newer and may appeal to many young couples. but i like sembawang esp the blk 468+ area as it is D&B, the interior is much bigger due to its design, and the environment is more quiet and of coz... in days to come, friendly neighbours like you guz here made everything even lagi wonderful !!

but of coz, another reason maybe ppl may have no choice coz HDB want to develop other newer areas !!

[candyprincess 0]

sounds so nice leh ur plc... do share pics when u can leen... hee... ya indeed it wld be great to have such great neighbours all ard... hee!

i did tink abt getting a plc ard ur area but other half feels a tad far frm mrt... my dad also asked us to get there... more airy... heh but its stil our choice la... anyway as long as near mrt n amenities we're satisfied

hopefully by end of this wk or nxt week, we wld knw when we wil get our keys...
