If you compare this to a 3 rm 40+ yr landed at Jln Bahagia, yes, it's a good buy.

The Pinnacle@Duxton is a 50-storey public housing project that was first launched in May 2004. Some of the remaining flats were re-launched in September 2008 and 111 five-room units were put up for sale at around $545,000 to $645,800.

When it was first introduced in 2004, four-room units were worth $289,200 while most of the five-room units were offered for about $439,400.

=> so in 2004 was 4xxk, then in 2008 was 6xxk, now is close to 800k :eek:

Guess who said this:

“From the 1980s, we moved towards a market-based system. By liberalising the resale market and allowing HDB prices to move in tandem with the economy, we unlocked the value of HDB flats to allow citizens to share in the fruits of the nation's growth. Home ownership of a HDB flat is a store of value that can be monetised when need be.”

just curious what will happen when this project is around 30 to 40 years old?
If goes under SERS where do you think HDB will relocate them?

I wonder if it was an open market auction where people can pay COV above the V of $800k to be the eventual buyer, where will the final price end up...

If the units can fetch 1 million and above in the resale market, it will cause a ripple effect to all the hdb flats in Singapore. Soon, a 3rm in tampines will be asking for 500k, 4 room 650k, 5 room 800k and exec 1million?

I pity those young couples looking for the first flat.
