why do you say it is more promising?
Anyone thinking of getting a unit in SW 18?
gave up on new launches. better value in resale.
Developer is selling you a dream waterfront living that MAY only arrive around 2030. Meanwhile you have to put up with traffic noise and ugly view. You can try walking '10min' to Somerset MRT in the afternoon - remember the walk is without shelter for most stretch. At around $2000+ psf, there are much better projects out there.Originally Posted by propertychap
outram mrt, not somerset. If somerset, happily pay $2000+ psfOriginally Posted by hyenergix
Hai.. I keep getting confused with these two MRTs. Seeing circles after a hard day of work. Time to zzz soon.Originally Posted by sh

I agree there is better value in resale but if I am looking at potential capital appreciation, is there a better chance that new projs first hand will have better price appreciation?
yes if u enter at the right price.....Originally Posted by propertychap
somemore all buy at same price....if market crash....all die tgt! hehe.....i bio some project like zedge....during downturn...nobody willing to sell at a loss leh....
if u buy subsale caspian now at 900psf for eg....if market crash b4 project TOP, get prepared to see some firesales at 700psf and u lose 200psf on paper
tats why i nvr consider caspian in the first place for subsale in Nov last year. price way too high liao. Good point.. this is wat i view as well. are u speaking from experience of several projects or just one project above?Originally Posted by devilplate
actually what i meant was better value in completed projects up for resale. may be a little older, but much better value. Can get rental income immediately too.Originally Posted by propertychap
The launch is confirmed going ahead on 18 Jan. Let's see the price & response
Heard from agent that most people still go ahead with the purchase quoting that they will hold till TOP to sell. So no impact?
The agent is putting up a brave front. If this project still sells well despite these measures, the buyers will be sure that there will be round #5 measures.Originally Posted by propertychap
Only for buyers buying on preview day! S$6XXk up. Last week to register preview. SMS <D2S18> to +65-92993342 to enjoy the one time incentive from developer.
wow, still advertising as though the cooling measures were never there.
It was 7XX K before. Now 6XX K ???
Yes, only for registered buyers on the 1st day of preview only. Registration closing on Sunday, 16 January 2011. Call me at +65-92993342 for more information.Originally Posted by propertychap
The cooling measure is good for genuine buyers with the financial means to sustain. It also weeds out speculators who wanted a quick buck. I guess we have to look at the basics if we are just looking at a place to stay.Originally Posted by bargain hunter
But somehow or rather, the funds that's around needed to park somewhere, either in Stock Market, Property Market, Bank Savings, Commodities, Gambling, Buy Toto or 4D, Horse Racing, Acquisitions & en blocs, & many many more.
It's either you gain nothing or you gain more.
maybe 701k become 699k?

Whats the smallest unit I can get and what is the psf?
Haha... Possible....Originally Posted by bargain hunter
Yes. It is.....spent, but investment opportunity in the hope for higher returnsOriginally Posted by proud owner
FROM $6XXk for the cheapest lousy unit. The rest of the premium units remain the same price. Just joking, don't what the developer has in its sleeveOriginally Posted by bargain hunter
Spottiswoode 18 only consists of 1/1+Study/2 bedroom Plus RT/DP/PH units.Originally Posted by propertychap
Smallest size is 1 bedroom for 387sqft (w/o bay window). psf ranges between S$2000psf and S$2500psf.
Is your maths ok? 2000 x 387 = $774k. Are you selling at $6xxk or $7xxk?Originally Posted by richardsng_era
Actually, you should visit the actual location to appreciate. Even at the lowest floor in the development, you will see more unblocked or greenery view.Originally Posted by hyenergix
fyi, there's a huge greenery just right in front of SPOTTISWOODE 18 facing the future Tanjong Pagar Waterfront City, with a Heritage Tree in the middle.
Try the Mee Rebus at the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station before it's closed for redevelopment. Recommended... Nice Mee Rebus...... at the coffee shop just beside the train track.......
The psf I quote is based on S$7xxk up.Originally Posted by hyenergix
skysuites at anson will be a better bet since it so near Tanjong Pagar MRT
