Yes blk 79 first, follow by 77.

Btw weekend during exercise, I went to the oppt hill to kei po - the average is $1100 psf, and hardly no view!

if 4th floor can have waterview, that's good news for wv owners. in fact, the view from the showflat which is 1st floor, also not bad. WV is really a goooooood buy! congrates to all FEC members!

Happy New Year!

Yes, opposite hill got no view. I went there a few wks ago and the agents there did tell us that there will not be any reservoir view. Only the top floor of the block that is on the highest point of the hill has a bit of "in between tree trunks" reservoir view.

I believe the view of the reservoir at WV is the best ! :cool:

Happy New Year to all FEC members !

Just got a pamphlet on SL latest baby to be delivered sometime in January at the ever popular Tampines Central Hub!! We have two sisters now in Tampibes alone. I believe the layout and materials used will be no different from WV and Centrale 8.

Let's wait in excitement!!!:p

Yes SL EC@Central 7 is launching after CNY.
Total 670 units from 3bedrooms(compact) to Penthouse.

SL better price this EC carefully and sensibly, or it might trigger off another wave of flames that result in a uncertain slow death like DBSS.

The pricing for Centrale 8 is infamous. Rather close to WV and definitely higher than Arc. Does this mean it has to come in between WV and Centrale 8? Especially when the latest CM is flowing into the pocket of the buyers. Being an EC makes it special. Should it be lower than WV, it will be a real steal!!!

Our step-sister in Punggol over at ATT already asking much higher than WV or parallel. Not forgetting that we're without the convenience of a train track-Thomas train not included. Waterway@Punggol heard will somewhat be around
$1100-$1400.

So where will it stand? $800psf!!!:scared-1:

Arc@tampines median price $744 psf, so will it price higher than arc?

was this the land SL bided 15% higher then the second in line, its about $350 to $400 psf/ppr if not wrong - there was newspaper on biz times at that time. Therefore breakeven on avg shld be at least $600 min... pricing easily $750 to $800 /psf... lets see.

It will be a record sell-out at $800psf!!! I reckon it will be the fastest selling EC ever at that price. :D

Selecting a Good Property - Harnessing Water at the Right Time and Place


[/URL]The article in this series serves as an example to assist home buyers to qualify for a good investment property or properties that could enjoy good Feng Shui and good Return on Investment or ROI with a mean to hedge against inflation. It also acts as an illustration to share the knowledge of Classical Feng Shui principles that could be used to assess a good property. This is based on the recent Waterview at Tampines. (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SXujcOMUA0Y/TfAy1dHsCAI/AAAAAAAAA8c/28z0anTFJDY/s1600/8Courtyards.png)

Generally, it is always favourable to have your property near natural and real water bodies. Water bodies can be water pond, waterway, etc, and it is should be clear and slow moving for water flow. If there is no natural water to be seen near the vicinity of your property, then have one or made one in your courtyard, like a swimming pool, pond or an aquarium in your living space.


In the current times, many commercial developments, such as the hotels, mega shopping malls, as well as many residential housing sites have water bodies near or within them, like the water fountains, swimming pools, etc, They are usually located either outside the properties facade or within the building site. There are numerous Chinese sayings, like “穴前明堂正中处,喜得丽水聚天心” and “水聚天心,富贵万金”, etc. These verses literally mean that it is always good to have water in the property’s facade or within the development site, ushering Wealth luck to the residents.

Waterview @ Tampines

Although it is good for a property to near “water”, at some situation, it is unfavourable to face one as it may influence the Wealth and People luck of the residents based on Feng Shui perspective. We have now in Period 8, which starts from 2004 to 2023. Units facing Southwest water are always superior to others. Besides Southwest, units facing water in the North, East and Southeast are also suitable choices in this period of time.

In additional, try to avoid selecting units facing too close to the building edges of your neighbouring blocks, especially if the edges are pointing directly to your unit, as it may affect the well-being of the residents.

Till then, happy home hunting….

The good Lord has been very kind to me. Had a heart attack on 29 Nov night at around 10.30pm after dinner with friends and two beers and 2 red wine. Was alone at Orchard Rd at that time, Broke into cold sweat and almost collapse. Three kind filipinos came to my aid and got ambulance for me. Reached SGH in time for emergency angioplasty on right coronary artery 90% blockage). One more Left Anterior Descending artery with three blockages to be done in early Jan 2012. This one happen to have collateral arteries. Am recovering well and already on cardio rehab programme. Eating healthily and exercising daily. so, bros and sis, enjoy life, take things easy, once in a while, re-examine our priorities and look after our faimily's health.

Yes, thanks, lesson for me is, annual checkups if you are 50 and above, a priority. also found out I have diabetes. Anyway got it under control now, abstaining from sugar and red meat, going low GI food now w 100% natural cocoa, walnuts, almonds, flaxseed oil, extra virgin olive oil, salmon, atlantic mackeral and sardines and lots of green vegys, brocolli, avocado, etc
Able to do 1.5 hrs brisk walk daily and light strength exercises. Exercises help to increase the good cholesterol. lower the triglycerides and improve insulin sensitivity. Do watch out for our kids, go easy on soft drinks and fruit juices (too much sugar) and the fast foods as well.

Life is short..enjoy hard!
That is the mantra I have adopted since things start to make sense to me when I was a teenager. I live like there's no tomorrow. We live only once, we make use of the time with consideration of the people around us. So if we have to go, we don't let them carry our burden thereafter.
Having a thrillion at hand and a couple of Ferraris in the carpark doesn't make life any better apart from the excitement, pride and the feeling of being on top of the world.
Enough will never be enough. We play in our playground hard and once our time is up, we go and never coming back. Be it the swing, rope, slide or the see-saw. You could probably have taken your last ride.
A ride that's never coming back. We are so very lucky yo even be here discussing in excitement our new home when there are people without a roof and sleeping under bridges for shelter.
Appreciate why we have, love the people around us and keep our feet to the ground. Enjoy the New Year guys!!:p

Btw I heard SL will be fixing gas water heater, most likely the Feroli heater used at Clover, hope SL use the one with reheat feature for all units and not dependent upon the hot water pipe length, understand the price difference is not great, otherwise, we may have to switch to electric storage heater ourselves.

Am recovering well, spouse is taking very good care of me and my youngest who just finished his O Level has grown more responsible and matured over the last few weeks. All in all, a Christmas blessing, we were supposed to travel on 3 Dec, imagine is this happened when we were overseas! Btw, I think SGH got one of the best coronary unit in the region. The ER team was superb. I didnt mention earlier that at the time I felt very heavy in the chest, I also started to get a stomach ache and was looking for a toilet at Wheelock Place. Imagine if I had found one, I could have collapse in there without anyone knowing. Also, before I could find the toilet, the bowels just give way i.e. lose control. The ER team cleaned me up, shaved me, did ECG, phone my wife and got me into ops within 15 mins. And the ops was over within half hour.
Am going this morning for my send cardio workout at National Heart Centre. Its all light exercises with your ECG and heart rate being monitored continously while exercising, so that eventually after completing the programme, you will have a better feel of what exercises should be safe.
One again many thanks to everyone. Cheers.

Hey jbtay,

Been away for months and only now I manage check this forum. Read the painful news that had happened to you, and glad that you're recovering. Take good care of yourself, and wishing you to have a healthier year ahead in 2012.


- Huddy

Hi Hopeful & Huddy, thanks, I was having an industry association committee meeting cum dinner at Tung Lok, Orc Pde hotel, just one table. Usually my friends would send me either home or to a MRT station as I don't drive, but that nite, they had something else on after dinner. Actually I noticed the heaviness already then which was more than the usual feeling, but thought I would be ok once I get back home and sleep it off. As I didn't manage to get a cab, thought I could just walk over to Orch MRT, but felt the heaviness unbearable as I was also carrying a note book and some books in the backpack. So I sat down opposite Starbucks at the bench, and did the heart mudra to try to dilate the blood vessels. That's when I started to feel the urge to release and so walk down to Wheelock Pl to look for a toilet, and then lost control and ended up standing next to a shop to rest. That's when the kind folks (a couple plus another gentlemen) saw me and asked if I was having chest pains. They got me a chair from the shop and called the ambulance.
No, I have no problems with FTs. Who else is going to build WV for us. The FTs are also like us, trying to build a better life for themselves, in a foreign country. Btw, my wife's father is a Singapore born Filipino and her mother is Hokkien. There are many Filipinos at SGH, nurses, radiographers, etc and some are very talented. After my ops, one of the lady doctor was doing the ultrasound imaging and she just couldn't get a clear picture of a certain section of the heart and the lady Filipino radiographer was teaching her how to do it and she asked how come you make it look so easy, and she replied that she had been doing this for 5 years in Singapore and before that 2 years in the Phillipines using much less sophisticated equipment.
I'm a Roman Catholic and I believe, this is the 2nd time in my life I have experienced a dramatic divine intervention.

Midges back at Bedok Reservoir

By Kezia Toh
MIDGES are once again proving a nuisance at Bedok Reservoir - a year after they first 'bugged' residents there.
Since last week, residents and shopkeepers have once again had to swat away swarms of these tiny green and blue flies.
The insects, known scientifically as Chironomidae, do not bite or carry diseases but that is hardly a consolation for residents.
They told The Straits Times that the midges typically plague the vicinity in January and February, making daily activities inconvenient.
Mr Rahmat Ahmad, 59, an administrative executive who lives in a Housing Board block facing the reservoir, said: 'I have to run to my car, open the door and dash in very fast so the bugs don't get in.'
The problem usually lasts up to a month, but last year's infestation was more intense, said Mr George Yeo, then MP for the Bedok Reservoir-Punggol ward of Aljunied GRC.
The town council brought in pest-control contractors and the authorities traced the source of the infestation to the rocks and shrubs at the banks of the water catchment area.
The midges were breeding in the mud underneath the rocks, so the exterminators used a group of bacteria which produce toxins to kill the larvae.
Last February, it was reported that separate tests run by national water agency PUB and the National Environment Agency (NEA) revealed that the population of midge eggs and larvae in the area had fallen by 95 per cent.
But in the middle of last month, there were signs of midges making a comeback and fogging at Bedok Reservoir has been stepped up, a PUB spokesman said.
The agency has been monitoring the situation since last January's outbreak.
The water agency carried out a joint fogging operation with the Aljunied-Hougang Town Council last Thursday and Friday evenings, and will be doing so again today.
Meanwhile, businesses have come up with ways to fend off the insects. Coffee shops are giving diners saucers to cover their drinks, for example.
Still, business has dipped by about 20 per cent, said Ms Jennifer Tan, 47, an assistant at a coffee shop.
'People think that it is dirty with all the flies and don't dare to sit and eat... Hopefully, this will pass by Chinese New Year because there is usually more business then,' she said.
A clothing store has placed an incense burner at its door. The strong smell wafts into the shop and the store hopes this will keep the bugs out.
As store assistant Tan Chong Yoi, 49, said: 'The smell of incense is better than having customers see insects on clothes - would they still buy them?'
NEA said it will continue to work with PUB and the town council to control the midges at Bedok Reservoir.

My take is always December 2014. I was made to be more positive by all our friends here. Anyway when we purchase it was estimated to be 2015 so I guess December 2014 for a 696-unit development is more practical.

The progress seriously is slow and steady. Many others I can see towering in a very short time. I seriously don't know which is better just as long as the build-up is proper and strong. I rather be a little patient then go through problems after that. Hehe.

Not only NV, if you look around, the rest are moving at lightning pace!! I'm surprised myself. Time is $ ain't it??:p

Just a year ago, a barren empty plot. A few mnths aft CNY 2011, work started and it's all up and moving now. One more new year and we'll be almost there.

Thank you East Lover. Progress looking good. Looks likes Christmas 2013 looking good now. Working backwards, say 1 mth for own renovation, 2 mths for defects rectification, 3 mths for key collection, 3 mths for TOP after physical completion, that brings us to Mar 2013. 9 mths from Jun 12 to Mar 13 for windows, internal works, plumbing, utilities, aircon plus clubhouse, pools, landscaping etc. Hmmn still a little tight but not impossible. Ha ha.

My progress has been good too thankfully. Had my 2nd procedure on 11 Jan 12 and discharged the next day. Now I got total of 3 stainless steel springs in 2 coronary arteries, 2nd procedure was pretty painful, blockage was a long stretch, had to put 1 long and 1 normal length overlapping springs. Plaque was pretty tough, balloon had to go thru around 15 times of inflation and deflation at up to 20 atm pressure to stretch the artery. When balloon is inflated, that cuts of blood to heart for that split second before deflation and the angina pain is telling. Previous stent on 29 Nov 11 also looks clean. A few other minor blockages at extremities cant be stented and hopefully with diet, exercise and medication, dissolve naturally or at least dont become worse. Btw my boy had unexpectedly good results. Managed only A2 however for his E maths (tutor - me, a little disappointed), but he managed A1 for Literature and Humanities (Geography & Social Studies - no tutor) and A1 for Combined Science (Physics & C hemistry - good external tutor) and Principles of Accounts (also good external tutor - an SMU business student) and B3 for English. Hoping to get a place in Temasek Poly to do Dip in Business.

Not really. Hmmm. Many would prefer envisioning the hacked down walls and rooms being spaced out and converted to another TV/study room with pretty wallpapers. More like being able to forsee how the end product 'could' look like. I prefer otherwise. Maybe I'm just a plain and simple person. Hehe.

SL often gets stick from buyers and investors for saving do much $ on their showrooms. FEO on the other hand will splash out a decent sum for their ID work. I can't tell for sure which is the preferred one. Hehe. :p

not only on the ID work, but also huge $$$ on advertisement on TV, newspaper and even radio! That's why their price is always higher than the rest.

SL doesn't bother to spend these kind of $$$ and effort on this, so their price is almost 'cheapest', they believe 酒香不怕巷子深。买家也乐得实惠。。。:rolleyes:

I was at the WV showflat earlier in the morning to recheck some measurements for the fridge area.

Chatted with the lone agent there, and noted that the showflat will be closed in Feb and a new one will be rebuilt at the future tennis court site.

Viewing at the future showflat will be on appointment basis, likely because the visitors have to be ferried in through the construction site.

Thanks Kengar. The furnitures must hv a new home in the Trilliant over athe other side. Hehe. :p

Not too bad looking for an empty unit. That's what we will expect to see in two years time. :)

Btw what's the width of the fridge that can be fitted into the tiny slot? Maximum of 650cm? I'm referring to the measurement from left to right, the horizontal way. The height and depth shouldn't be a problem right? Really wishing for a 2-dr fridge but no way it will work. Thanks bro!:(

just did a quick check on propertyguru, waterview 2 bedder, price range about $750K+. is this price acceptable?

would you still consider waterview which the selling point is bedok reservoir view after the recent cases of dead bodies (ie: pantang/bad fengshui especially pay high price for reservoir facing) and midges :scared-4:

scared buy liao, if not feeling good after staying awhile ... cannot offload and kena lowball

It really depends. In the view of the recent cases, I guess many would avoid developments around the reservoir. Now people are flocking at those closer to MRT and shopping centres.

People like me rather have a quiet life and hme stay. Here, it's pretty convenient as everywhere is within reach and most of us do have a transport on our own.

Personally I bought this as I think its a sweet developement in a good matured estate where they are not many private condos. EC's are definitely coming up and I think WV pricing is reasonable. It's the simplicity, layout and location that got me here. Might not be suitable for others though. Anyway, there're just so many out there for people to choose from. We are spoilt for choice right now. Hehe. Yeah, looking forward to end 2013 too like the rest here!:D

Tampines MRT and Interchange is definitely crowded in the mornings.

MRT East West line is usually vy crowded at all times unless its very early in the morning. I don't drive. Ever since office shifted fm Orchard to Mapletree Biz city, takes me about 75 mins to get there. I usually take Bus 28 to Paya Lebar and then onto circle line. Circle line at PL around 7am, should be able to get a seat and I go the long way to Labrador Park.
When we shift to WV, guess I will have to take 69 to Tampines Interchg and mabe take train bk to Pasir Ris to get seat and then go all the way to Buona Vista to switch to circle line.

Thanks East Lover and Desquire. Many blessings from the good Lord. He was keen on the poly route even though he can get into most any JC. Supported him even though two elder sons went thru the JC route and thru the local Unis. That's quite some years ago. Things have changed a lot as the Poly route to Unis is wide open nowadays and I think the Poly environment provides better real life exposure.
Housing market looks pretty resilient. Stocks moving up against all odds!. Forecast is 2600 to 3200!! What kind of forecast is that!!!. Euro will continue for the next 2 years with intermittent crisis moments. Take profits on rallies, nibble on dips.

Does any of you heard from Shirley recently. The only thing I have confirmed with her months ago was to seal up the door between the backyard and the MBR as well as the removal of toilet bowl in the maid's WC. There are other things that I have yet to have her confirmation and wonder if any of you have. These includes:

1. non installation of the gate in the backyard
2. installation of blinds or windows in the backyard or other suggestions to the backyard dry.
3. Installation of backlight and storage for the mirrors in both MBR and common toilet

Might have plans on the kitchen as well, create an extension for an island but seem like it a waste to remove the newly installed cupboards.
Wonder if we can get a rebate for not installing the kitchen built in's

heard there is something can block the heat from ceiling. so we can apply on the wall of MBR also. once this main issue is resolved, we will have no more worry. All the rooms are surely bright and cool (with 3M film);)

Exactly, need the best heat rejection 3M films. The best and nothing but the best cause the view is alredy the best!!! Hehehe. Only 3M and nothing else. I believe it wilsuit you jus fine and the hat will be minimal.

The work is going pretty fast. The workersare seen concentrating on th blocks near the entrance these days. Yellow helmets everywhere!!!:tongue3:

I am in the tortoise group. Look at it this way, project will get TOP only when all are completed, so doesn't matter who wins the rest, and for the tortoise group, we may get to make progress payments later than the rabbits, but still lets hope they feed the tortoise well so that we can run faster and we all get to the top faster i.e. TOP faster. ha ha

From dining to kitchen already hv glass right? Just that you don't want people from dining to see the kitchen through the transparent glass right? I think it should be "one way mirror glass".

You can use 3M version. Cheaper right? Did I get what you mean right sis?:D

any change request will be on condition that owner forgo entitlement including refund for any shortfall in actual floor area after survey right?

My changes did not include floor tiles but I don't think we forgo any rights already embodied in the original agreement. Further the changes are clearly itemised in the Letter of Indemnity which we need to sign. Purpose is to indemnify the developer for any liabilities arising out of our request for the changes. We need to commit that we inform any sub-purchaser of the changes to avoid any potential dispute between any sub-purchaser with the developer.
Also the request for change is a request and still subject to final architect's determination and of course also the Commissioner of Control if BP approval is required. The costs or set-off will be stated clearly in the LOI.
Looks a pretty fair and reasonable LOI to me. LOI is a separate agreement and does not affect all rights of both parties in the original agreement. Pl take advice if you need to. Also will have a sketch also to show the changes besides the itemised description in the LOI.
Just email to Shirley the changes you require and she will send you the LOI hopefully if its still not too late. Did my in end Sep 2011. Cheers

Hi
If I am not mistaken, the number of air-con isolators refer to the electrical power isolators to the compressors. For 2+1 will have 3 based on the specs booklet. But all Living, Dining, Study and Bedrooms and Family area will have air-con fan coils, so for 2+1 will be 5 fan-coils i.e. air-con outlets.

Went back to showflat also on Tues for last look with the Mrs. Looks like fridge in the Dining area on plan looks ok, but looking at the actual space, will make the Dining/Living area very congested. Ha ha, back to putting the fridge in the bomb shelter. Can't use the yard toilet even though we are not fixing the toilet bowl as Mrs need a washing area for large items. Check bomb shelter doorway to be about 75.5 cm. My present kitchen door width was also 75.5cm and I remember the delivery people open the fridge doors fully open to both sides and move it through sideways. Depth of fridge is about 67cm. Keeping my fingers crossed. Worst come to worst, get a Mitsubishi folio.

Also would need to retrofit the dishrack in the kitchen cabinet with glass doors and seal the bottom. That way, cockcroaches and lizards cant get in and we don't need to wash the plates and cups again after washing and wiping dry. :)

From the pictures, the quarry view is actually very beautiful too isn't it? I think a good choose nevertheless.

Nothing is impossible. Firstly, they should include a train station over at Quarry Park and promote Healthy Lifestyle for the residents of Tampines. Built up the area where families can spent time daily and especially over the weekends.

The location is perfect. The opportunity is there. They just need to plan and get it started. This is the best thing that can ever happen to the plot if land there. :D

Very possible.:D Never set any limit when you brainstorm.

It will happen someday, say, 50 years later, when sea level rises. The inner 'highland' of Singapore becomes the only place for people to live. You will see the two lakes is merged and we may have 'sea view' everywhere. Definitely all the road will be tubes under water.

Don't worry la. You are in high floor...

Haha. By then I guess the whole world would have been submerged underwater. The world could have ended but there's a need to delay the Mayans Calendar just a little longer. Hold back, Waterviewers need to experience a true home first before things end. Hehe. :tsk-tsk:

Hi All, I came across this information from BCA and would like to share for pleasure reading.


FAQ: http://www.bca.gov.sg/CONQUAS/conquas_faqs.html#general_q1

http://www.corenet.gov.sg/homeowners/default.asp?SortBy=Q29udHJhY3Rvcg==&category=UFJJVkFURSBIT1VTSU5HIChBTEwp


What is the purpose of CONQUAS? (Excrepts)

CONQUAS was designed to measure quality of constructed works against workmanship standards and specification.

What does CONQUAS cover in a project?

CONQUAS assesses the quality of workmanship in: Structural work; Architectural works; Mechanical & Electrical (M & E) works.

What does the CONQUAS score mean?

A high CONQUAS score means a building with good quality workmanship.

A CONQUAS score of 80 means 80% of the items checked for workmanship quality met the CONQUAS standards. A building that achieves a higher CONQUAS score is better constructed, in terms of workmanship quality, than a building with a lower CONQUAS score.


Score of past Sim Lian Projects (As Contractor): Looks pretty average

Here is the latest variation list and pricing that I have discussed with Shirley (Sim Lian).

The incremental costs for installing soft closing hinge to the bathroom cabinet mirrors is quite shocking. :scared-4:

Assuming I don't take up Sim Lian's soft close hinge option, is it still possible for me to ask my own contractors to replace them? Does it mean there will be more holes left behind from the original installation?

* Price schedule in subsequent post (WIP)

2 parcels of land facing quarry up for tender.

Getting very crowded hahaa.. I had the wildest thought that Govt would use these 2 parcel of lands for an MRT.. looks like my dream is busted.

These locations are likely deemed "ulu" as Waterview as what several forumers had previously said.

Buyers are really spoilt for choice. Every little piece of land is released for the development of condos or ec's. Buldings everywhere. Prices will only see a downward trend due to the number of homes available. :scared-3:

Good for WV indeed. No longer ulu, and soon we will have a mini centre in the edge of Tampines :)) now Tropica no more mama shop because no biz..... hopefully we will have some shops around WV, and maybe LRT station someday?? And yes, the quarry park! It will be function well soon if 2 more condo there?

Don't forget the new pc price baseline is $1100 psf :) that will make our WV a steal! And yet, the best is no one can beat our WV beautiful view except Tropica.

So let's welcome our new neighbours to our ulu ulu Tampines edge :rolleyes:

Up or down I'm staying put unless space is a serious concern. Such a great ulu location. Wasted. If I sell to the next owner,I'll probably drool each time I pass the place. Hehe. :D

saw that in AmFraser Report on Property Sector. URA only show 2 caveats lodged in Feb12, does that mean the rest are foreign buyers or not taking loans/ use CPF?
Archipelago sold 33 units. Kind of like the 3 br layout and the finishing, even though can't c the reservoir but its close to nature, future mrt and eating outlets, Sheng Siong and NTUC.
