Think this lot is better compare to the winding Siglap Road - Flamingo Valley.

Consider the location, FH and good size for rental. Besides, this is a boutique apt.

Xia xia ne, I initially thought it is France...now Italy + German + gamma ray. Actual site still not vacant, still got ppls stay there. I "interviewed" 2 residents there, confirmed they are asked to vacant by Oct 2010. Also confirmed Koon Seng rd traffic quite conjected (to still rd) cos of the girls school.

No monet to buy those in D9, D10, D11, so bopian, compromised a bit and take D15. On lah, will receive lawyer letter soon.

Now VVIP price hor, when public launch expect 5%-7% increase.

in italian, Grande can mean: big, large, great, old (as in mature). that might be more consistent with Tivoli

receive lawyer letter means what? you booked a unit/s already? what's pricing like, no. of units, etc? thanks

huh, TOP June 2010? what is gsy? each unit gets at least one carpark lot (not including guests lots)?

eh, this seems like a much smaller unit than the one you'd been eyeing in siglap. what're your plans for this unit? don't mind me asking hor, i am curious and i thought i should learn from all the more experienced zhang bei here

Typo error, is ~June 2014. Possibilities

1. Flip, need to pay selling stamp duty & brokerage. Haig162 oversubscribed, balloting, within 2 hrs all sold. All mickeymouse units, many "flipping" here & there. Siao liao.

2. >1y sell away before completion of fundation work, 20% "stuck" there for >1 yr, quite "costly", make sure include interest incurred when sell.

3. Rental-Siao ah, might as well get existing resale, get rental yields immediately.

4. Own stay a while then sell, or rent out existing hdb 5rm, must appeal property tax swop, quite sian.

for 1 and/or 2 to be viable, you might also need to consider the opportunity cost of not putting that amount into other investment types for the same duration. what do you reckon your return would be for 1 or 2?

D9. Had. Need to look carefully.

Last June, we brought one @ Mirage Tower - Studio unit @ $700K. High floor > 30 floor; come with tenant. FH.

1 wk after the completion, the agent found a buyer.

We sold. Within 3 mth. profit 10% + 3mth rental (after the administration fee (stamp fee and etc))

sorry, i no understand, so the overall return (rental included inside) was 10% over 3 months even after taking into account all costs and fees? impressive.

Ya lor, my present "standard" with ~ $200K, can make ~$36,000 within a year in stk mkt. Against my principles to rent out "new" unit. 850sqf not that easy to flip, mickeymouse much more easy.

Use this ratio as base, duty+5%+20% =$225,290. After 1 year, must get at least $36k++ as profit may be + a few more$k for my own consultation fee ("fisherman" fee).

The Hutton agency's director kept talking to me abt flipping, even showed me otp doc for those units he flip clients. "encouraged" me to get mickeymouse unit to flip. Asked him to fly kite, don't keep talking abt flipping. I just wanted to know among 82, how many has been sold! Info not transparent!. Bopiah, I just fall in love with that plot of land.

Lorong Chuan(Scala) will be another hot cake, similar to Optima.
