This is Pokey, my wifey favourite teddy bear.

When we return from a holiday trip from HK on Oct 2011, we actually plan an additional day to rest but we decided to look at some houses on our dream location out of spontaneous mood. Texting a few property agents and there we goes, really never intend to buy any house just merely wana see see look look. What happen next? This is only the third houses we've seen within the same location on the same day and "WHAM"...we decided it in our mind! Yes.. in our mind cos we never intend to purchase anything right from the beginning. The next few days onwards, we were busy discussing the details and negotiating the COV. Anyway thanks to the garment, without them we wouldn't have purchase a resale and pay high COV for it. Ok cut it short, I'm here to share and contribute back to the forum since we have learn quite a fair bit from the forumners here. Thanks to all!

ON the 16th of April 2012, we finally got our keys!!

Welcome welcome..the previous owner did a decent reno before..looks quite well maintained. How old is this unit?

Hihi thank you :-) the block is 11 years old, the previous owner stayed there for 8 yrs.

So the pokey88 is the wife, and pokey is bought from denimart? Hehe... Just joking. Nice house condition. The ex owner must have requested a lot of COV for the condition of the house?

Welcome aboard! Is the floor cement screed apart from the kitchen and toilets? If so, can save money on hacking. Previous owner's layout idea quite unique, being 8 yrs ago. The house looks spacious.

Hi denimart and pokey88,

Our valuation was among the highest in that neighborhood, therefore we told Ron so long the selling price hit the amount we want, we will let it go. We have settled in our new place, if both of you wish to visit us to see our renovation, just SMS me.

Welcome to RT and Congrats!!!

The layout are quite special for an 11 years old flat. hhhmmmm.... and already have built in WIW and big big MBR. Your reno can save a lot leh....
