Double Bay Residences, Simei St4 (D18, 99LH, 646units, UOL/Kheng Leong)

[devilplate]

Its definitely less than that... 2.5K max...

I agree..shd be around 2-2.5k for 2bedder tropical springs. However the new plot of land shd be launching close to 1kpsf...sounds high...well, waterfront gold maybe trying to break the 1kpsf soon...we shall see.

Condo near to simei mrt only fetch 2.5-2.8k presently for 2bedders.

[devilplate]

Propertyguru is not reliable and the price is no way to be a reference... there are too much dummy advs and repost from the same repeated sellers...

I doubt it fetches 1K pfs now... nearby old condo is only $750... giving another $150 on top would be the max to go... and not to forget the price during launch is bout $700+ pfs...

He is toking about studio units asking prices. studio units was launched at 8XXpsf...1kpsf is the price to go.

I got mixed up...I am referring to The tropical 2bedder rental 2-2.5k

Tropical spring shd be able to fetch 2.5-2.8k

You are right about propertyguru.

Those are just asking price.
I look at how much prices for rent & sale for my condo vs what transactions and rental actually are. Big discrepancy.

In the current bull market...nobody is in the right mind to sell/rent at transacted prices.

Same goes to during a bear market, no buyers r in the right mind to buy/rent at transacted prices.

[peterng8]

Studio is new to Simei/Tanah Merah so not sure how much can fetch. Rental for 2br @ Tropical Spring next door completed in 2002 should be about 2.8k per month.


Hi, thanks for the info...

rgds,

[peterng8]

My take is around 1.5-1.8k for a studio(its not a proper 1bedder)

If ur budget allows, personally feels tat u may wan to consider 2/3bedder afterall it is a mass market condo and it is easier to sell to homebuyers when it TOP if u nid to.
:2cents:

Actual rental price is below asking by a margin and beginning to fall, not rise.
Asking price for purchase is of course above latest transactions, but transactions are thin. Seems more sellers than buyers in secondary market.

There will always be a period of consolidation in every bull run once a certain price resistance is hit. Life will be so simple if everything goes up/down in a straight linear line

Based on my calculation, the breakeven cost for the winning developer would be between $875 psf to $925 psf. I may be wrong. Can someone correct me please? Thanks.

[Wild Falcon]

Looks like developers more keen on government land sales than enbloc. Looking at the map - this is the farthest away from city center anyone can be already and 99LH and still will sell at 1000psf on a smallish plot :) If you're holding on to freehold development near future MRT, I think "huat" already.

[pengful]

So the land parcel at Simei St 3 claims $523 psf on average. Is there a formula or track record how much developers add to the land cost when they sell?

What was the cost of land psf for DBR?

[amk]

DBR owners, let's celebrate :cheers1:
yes indeed. congrats.
btw how come the famous DBR promoter is not here ? ;)

Is there a formula or track record how much developers add to the land cost when they sell?

construction cost varies quite significantly, depending on who's the maincon, the the timing (raw materials cost).
CES himself is a contractor/builder, so it will build it himself I think. cost should be low. <$250 I think.



What was the cost of land psf for DBR?

abt $300.

surely this wld not affect ur decision to buy DB?
I stay near double bay (abt 5 mins drive away).
If u leave by 710 am and use ECP to go city, u probably cld make it w/o paying erp at the fort rd gantry (which starts at 730). CBD gantries start at 8 am.

Of cos depends on road condition and how fast u drive. I drive bt 90-100 km/h on ECP where traffic condition allows.

In all the discussion about the potential of DB Residences, I would think another area worth looking at is Kembangan area. There are a few developments very near the MRT and freehold. The area is also a quiet area though there are a couple of mosques around. Most properties there are freehold.
Anyone has any views on the Kembangan area?

very mly kampong similar to eunos...dun have much chinese eateries around.

but gd thing is: FH and near MRT and decent rental yield...however mostly boutique apts

[propertychap]

Kembangan one stop away from Bedok. And with the land beside Bedok interchange earmarked for a condominium development, perhaps this place may see some life and interest. Perhaps some with enbloc potential as well. Usually developers like FH and near MRT and old buildings:)

[propertychap]

In terms of rental yield, Geylang area much better. Of course choose those higher number Lorongs like 26 and above to avoid the messy area and those parts closer to the Guillemard end.

But Kembangan is a more classy area I guess compared to Geylang

There is a big project of 473 units at Kembangan area. Keep a lookout for that. I have a feeling that will be a boost to the prices in the area. Heard it is from a reputable developer.

[propertychap]

Yes this is the one. I am quite keen to explore further to get a unit but something that bugs me is that it is not exactly that near to the MRT. How long would one need to walk to the MRT station?

Personally I like Kembangan area as it is a relatively quiet place with most properties there being freehold.

Any comments?

[propertychap]

Anyone has indicative pricing?

[kane]

10mins walk is probably 800m in distance.

[devilplate]

dun be fooled when they say near to MRT....go down and test urself...super tiring as it is hilly....but very good exercise....:D

i was once so naive and got cheated into buying a ppty tat supposedly walkable to novena MRT...physical distance on the map around 800m...took me around 15mins and very very sweaty.

You seem very anti-DBR, why? Isn't it a property like any other property and as buyers/ investors we are driven to potentials for profits. Is it not?

There will always be people who will buy. What about Tropical Spring, Modena and the future Simei St 3 development?

[pengful]

No need to suspect. It IS the multistorey carpark that is supposed to shield the track noise from the residential blocks. Of course, some will challenge the effectiveness of that concept.

[shespawn]

thanks for the photo. I always view it on the 12th floor at one of those HDB blocks. seems like the tree will not be visible to public soon. strangely, they havent' start to lay any foundation for the shops. Only JitKiat will know, since his place is above the shops. (i think)

Well, the 4th University is built at the same place. The partener is changed from Austrilia to America. So for property investment, it doesn't matter. Singapore goverment will just get some other University to fill that place.

Well, everyone thinks if you are near University, u can rent to either students or lecturers. But funny enough a lot of Professionals want to stay near Universities. Maybe they miss the good days in campus. There are bank operations in EXPO area, and a lot of international logistic companies there. Mid managers need to rent, so renting is not a problem in that area.

Thanks,
Richard

It definitely makes a difference for the lower floor units....

May help a little. But noise travels in a radial manner. In this case as the trains move, it will be a line or cylindrical noise source. Not sure about the layout of DBR with respect to MRT line, tall buildings can also help to bounce the noise around other than absorbing them. Good luck guys and pray for the best. Otherwise, may have to complain to LTA like the guy in Tampines.

How about the noise from multi carpark? Bearable? Especially blocks right beside?

Noise from carpark should be relatively better than noise from trains. It is not frequent and loud.

are these 3000 staffs singaporeans/malaysians? who already have a place to live ?

Do singaporeans move house just becos their work place moved ?

or are all 3000 expats ?

[DC33_2008]

People buy house because of school. These are people who have been working in DBS unless there is a hiring spree for the backend staf, IT, etc. They have already outsourced to IBM.

end 2012 completion i think looking at the progress...

Hi Sky, my fiance and I got a high floor facing Tropical Spring. Only 936 square feet though.

Your unit sounds really good, near the waterfall. I'm sure your daughter will love the variety of pools in the development.

hi jeanette, it's good to see owners of dbr posting here. i got a 2+1 facing the lap pool. did you get yours subsale?

the progress seems pretty slow, we haven't made the 5th payment yet. I've spoken to a lady officer working at the site, and she say it's May 2012 completion date. i think probably end 2012 then we get to move in.:beats-me-man:

DBR for those 3/3+1 high flr facing landed ppty towards EXPO will be goodie....may even catch a glimpse of sea view if it matters...certain stack facing main pool also quite well spaced apart

[kingkong1984]

Cheaper. MSP is associated with Mass Market projects.

[terence]

based on current pricing of 900psf+ for its 3bdrm, i think price still quite decent compared to the newer launches..too bet my pocket's not deep enough to get a unit here

[hovivi]

$1m budget only and looking for 3bedders.. Wonder if can get a good unit

[kingkong1984]

Just try, hurry, buy before price go up.

[terence]

$1m budget only and looking for 3bedders.. Wonder if can get a good unit

When i was looking at dbr previously, there are several sizes for their 3 bdrms..1259, 1270, 1313 and etc...
Depend on stack and facing. But think unlikely at 1mil for a 3 bdrm...1.1mil i think you got good chance. :)

[terence]

however, some agents were telling me then that most 3 bdrms were going for 900psf+...Prob u can call some of them to find out.

They have removed everything on block 21D....tat's my block...
Quite dissappointing for now cause it looks quite similar with the latest DBSS at Simei..:doh: hope it will be different upon completion...

For now, we are just praying that we can live with the MRT sound zooming by every mins..:o

[kingkong1984]

you got to go there, face your unit, then walk out the equivalent of 50 to 100 meters in the opposite direction to experience it.

If u find the noise unbearable. Better sell off quickly and take profit.

[evilllll]

Bought it from subsale...not much profit left ..
Die die must stay there, cause staying with in-laws now...
My in-laws place is near to MRT too, and guess we're already inmuned to the noise from the trains..in fact, most of the time i didn't hear it...

Since this project come with pneumatic refuse system, are they the same as those found on new HDB projects?:confused: You have to leave your house to throw rubbish down the chute??

If buying for adults then fine..but If buying to stay with family think of the babies too...
For adults is ok.. but you want your newborn to suffer mrt noise?.. who knows the ill effects it might have on their health...may get hearing problems..

[rockinsg]

BTW interesting article on the noise effects..
http://aappolicy.aappublications.org/cgi/content/full/pediatrics;100/4/724

[evilllll]

i think the noise is still within an acceptable level and i like the convenience of staying near MRT station.

If it's not good for babies, i guess many families will be affected in Singapore. I lived near main road before and the noise there is even worse than the MRT. And worse, it's 24 hours noise pollution from modified/spoilt exhaust system..At least MRT will stop between midnight and 6am everyday...

As for pneumatic refuse system, believe me, u would rather bring your rubbish out and throw it like HDB system because I've lived in a new development with in-house chute before. Within months of staying, my neighbour from 2-5th floors start to complain abt pest infestation in their premises... cockroaches, ants and funny insects... And a few months later, i can see small cockroaches and ants in my kitchen too. And BTW, I'm at 16th floor... So we have to spray insecticide every night at the chute to prevent unwanted members in our family...

Just my 2 cents worth...

[iwantgizmos]

The frequency of trains can be extremely high in the mornings. -i.e. every couple of minutes.
It will be like having an alarm clock that can't be snoozed.
Train starts operation as early as 5:00 AM++

Depends on ur unit facing....jus make sure ur unit is not facing the mrt track n got any blocks shield u anot

And den pls dun use main road as an comparison....those facing xpressway definitely worse den facing mrt track etc....

I always say it doesnt make u less fat by comparing wif sm1 fatter den u

[evilllll]

i'm comparing main road/mrt based on my own experience with both and my own preference...It doesn't have to be main road also, even single lane road are prone to noise pollution. Units facing the pool may also face noise pollution from the people playing by the pool, so it really depends on your tolerance level and your pocket....My pocket is not so BIG to choose what i want...

So in the end, I choose a unit facing MRT track.. i will share my experience here when i receive my key..:) :) :)

One main's meat is another man's poison....

So closed. The inner units really suffer from zero day light ..Must switch on light even in day time ... Ripple effect of. contwisted noise and smell.. Wonder how these people ever dry their clothes (if ever) naturally. :scared-4: Simei Green a much much better choice.

With all the scaffolding still on, it do looks abit cramp and dark but once they are removed, it should be alright I hope.

Unfortunately, the mrt viaduct can be removed.

Just heard from some agents that one 3+1 unit sold for $1000psf...?
I thought prices are heading south :(

With BTOs new launch lower price, this may affect HDB resales price, but depends on demand n most importantly supply. Pte pry prices south at this time is highly unlikely. Just look at new launches, smaller n higher $ psf.

Looking at the caveats, there's a huge price diff between unit 05-13 and 06-13....maybe selling to relatives? 600++psf and 900++psf..WOW!

Noticed the scaffolding for a few stack like 21C, 21D, 19C and 19D has been removed. For some stack, we can also see Mistubishi aircon being installed. Wonder whether can we expect TOP by 2nd Q 2012 ?

[nochoice]

completion date stated may 2012...Top should add another few months more, most likely 3rd quarter.

Units facing outside and towards the mrt viaduct will get the train noise.

[beemer75]

the windows are the push out type, not sliding. Wld it be possible to change to sliding windows( on own acct) after key collection? or only after 1 yr AND with MC's approval?
