APOLOGIES ON THE LENGTHY INPUT

 

We really have no luck on applying for BTO. We tried 4 x but all our queue number are over the units available. We are a young couples but luck is really not on our side. Its a blessing in disguise i guess!

Therefore, we've decided to get a resale in the east, for one big reason - SPACE!!!!!

We will be collecting our key somewhere in April 17. 

We have decided not to hack the whole flooring, kitchen cabinet and toilet (Will need to change the toilet bowl for hygiene purposes)

I will update my renovation progress once its started!

Here is my floor plan and the works we have ask for quotation.

The quotation that we got is quite reasonable.

We have decided to go with this ID as we felt confidence and the chemistry we had since day 1 was fantastic and we have seen his work in his FB.

Thank you! @Mery

Space planning and some new ideas by our ID

Hi, congratulations to you for owning a very big and squarish apartment. Just wondering if you are going to install an air-con for the new guest room since it does not have any window.

Your walk-in wardrobe in the master bedroom looks interesting. But can you still have a king bed?

Hello!!

For the guest room, i wont be installing air con. Thought of a standing fan. Its more of a prayer room for my family. I am installing a bi fold door so that it wont feel stuffy when no one is using that room. 

Yes! Very interesting indeed! The walk in wardrobe idea was given by my ID. The toilet entrance is concealed by the walk in wardrobe. We were worried about the "SMELL" initially but my iD assured us that there wont be any smell as there will be a toilet door. Its like an alley where your clothes will be on the left & right before you enter the toilet 

Unfortunately, can only fit Queen. But hey, Queen is good enough for us!

 

Will keep you posted once the 3D is out after CNY. Cross finger!  

Congratulation poliwhack. Looks promising.

Hello @doctor123 

I engage an agent to source an EA in pasir ris. As im currently residing in Tamp, i hate the idea of moving out of east side.

hi Poliwhack, the space planning looks impressive. Was it your own idea?

Can u write a review of your ID on www.hometrust.sg?

 

Hello @albertchan659

The only idea that my id gave was the walk in wardrobe in the master bedroom that we love. The rest was planned by us. 

 

I will write a review of my id once the reno completed. There could be hiccups along the way which is unavoidable. 

 

Will update everyone with the 3d soon! Roughly Mid feb onwards!
