Dear gurus, i am new to district 21. The cascadia caught my eye and i read about its ups and downs in its thread already. I am looking at its 2+1 units there and was hoping if anyone can shed abit of light on whether D21 prices for cascadia is reasonable now to buy or not. anything else i should look out for? Buying for own stay/one child. Thanks!

2+1... Are you going to stop at 1 child?

I think 2 is the target. But while they are young, the +1 may do the trick?

The only people whom I know to be interested in Cascadia, are those who have daughters and aiming to gain proximity advantage in the P1 registration exercise for MGS. If you belong to one of those, then just get whatever that is within your affordability. The end goal is the school registration. :)

One of such friends stay in a 2+1 with two kids, and a helper. Hence, technically possible even with two kids.

Then rent is even a better choice.

Agree. But there is a MOE requirement for the family to stay in the address used for P1 registration for a minimum period of 30 months from registration date. Most parents fear that the landlord will exercise the right to sell clause during this period, and the family gets booted out.

I think there is no issue if you plan to move to bigger place 10 years later. Otherwise the place will feel too small for family of 4 or 5 (w/helper).
