Id Work Mainly On Hdb Vs Id Work For Private Housing

[cookcpu 1]

Do you think that ID works mainly on HDB project will be able to work on private housing project.

Or should I be better off to find those ID that are specialise on private housing project.

I have experienced such an issue before.

Is better to find an ID who does mainly private properties.

ID who specialised in HDB not suitable for private as HDB got many restrictions on what can be done. The risk is that a HDB specialised ID will keep on saying this and that cannot be done, when in private property no such restriction.

Also, private property dimensions for things like doors, etc, are all bigger, thicker. As such, is also a seperate group of suppliers and pricing. Due to small private property market, cost is higher due to no economies of scale, unless owner dun mind HDB sized dimension for everything.

Thanks for the advise. Yah, the ID design fees already in the 20k. I guess anything in private property will not be cheap.

That's not true. Good contractors can do everything.
