People buy coz its MCL. They forgot that interior finishings are important factors when buying a home! They thought MCL is their stamp of guarantee!!!Originally Posted by 5577
I can understand if people are buying because of a reputable developer. But why can't they see the shortcomings of the layout design and materials at the showroom?Originally Posted by ysyap
The buyers are simply KIASU..Originally Posted by 5577

Material wise I think still seems quite ok. Eg the homogeneous tiles looks like higher grades (I'm not an expert though, just based on impression.) I visited 8CY then this project on same day. Can notice the contrast in quality.Originally Posted by 5577
Homogeneous tiles easier to take care and last better than marble. Marble is porous and easily stained by all sorts of liquids if one doesn't clean in time.
Unless, one is super rich and got maid to polish now and then, seriously don't see the need for marble. I rather developer spend more on the landscaping and carpark lots.
U certainly sounds like an agtOriginally Posted by solsys
I really cant tahan agts giving lame excuses like homogeneous tiles easy to maintain n laminated flooring non scratchable
Just so lame...cut cost just say so lah...hehe

Were you told by the agent that they use homogeneous tiles? The agent who served us told us porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.....
But I agree that homogeneous tiles require lesser care... Just that for the location and price one is paying for....... It is not worth the $$$$$

There are ways to get round the dirty accumulation.....
I had dark brown homogenous tiles that resemble very rough stone tiles in my kitchen for a resort feel. We just use a very dark color grout to blend in with the tile color.... No issue at all.
Yes tat provided u use dark colored homo tiles....but developermusually give light colored tiles....oh ya, 8wood i tink using brownish groutOriginally Posted by 5577
Then not much problem for u then!Originally Posted by devilplate

I am not agent. If I have tonnes of money, I will hire maid and people to polish my tiles weekly, but I am not since I am looking at suburbia properties.
So may I ask how often you shine your marble tiles? Marble needs regular polishing to maintain its shine.
No point having an Aston Martin and only polish it once a year, same goes for those who pride their marble tiles and leave it to fade and stain.
There are reasons why certain materials are gaining popularity due to our hectic lifestyle.
Maybe you are a housewife that spends time polishing marble? Or maybe I should assume u run a marble polishing company that polishes marble, that's why we can safely assume you support marble for your business.
Don't assume and point fingers at people. Ask politely in future.
To save you your pride, here's my answer again, " No, I am not an agent."
U r buying a 1kpsf project n definitely deserve better...
8cy initial launch 7xxpsf...den tiles not so bad la
Cut cost is the obvious reason for developer...
If developer give u an option between marble n tiles....will u choose tiles?
Btw, i renovated a whole hse n i use tiles....haha bcoz its cheap n cost less den half compared to marble ....somemore i m renting it out...haha
Btw, someone mentioned it's porcelain tiles for terrasse. Let's not confuse the readers. How does porcelain tiles work? Will crack like porcelain vase or not?

Yes...but this project is overpriced n yet give tiles...Originally Posted by solsys
That's exactly what I ask the agent when she said porcelain tiles!Originally Posted by solsys
But who cares? I'm definitely not interested in it.
Sis, looks like u r window shopping last wkend..heheOriginally Posted by 5577
Which project is next?
Welcome to waterfront isle, luxurious marble awaits you.
you can choose your marble theme and your bathroom style.
marble definitely has the classier look but u have to look after it well with regular mopping of the floor with good detergent for marble flooring.no need to polish your marble tiles.
homo tiles or procelain tiles still acceptable.
the worse is laminated flooring for the bedrooms.this is complete cheapskate n it drags down the whole image of the project imo..
Nowadays, where got so good to find Ai Pi Ai Qi Gou Ai Dua Liap Ni...
Ahahaha....sort of... actually, I was out with another couple who was looking for a second property to be their residence.Originally Posted by devilplate
We were looking out for a development that gives them the best feel and deal at today's pricing. A tough thing to do! I suppose the hunt will go on for a while!
Ahahahaa, Azeo!Originally Posted by azeoprop
Very tempting but you know what, I hate cleaning! Especially the bathroom!!!!!
