I would thought savvy investors will look for gems in the resale market rather than following the herd to the swanky showflats?Originally Posted by fclim
Can share what are the possible gems in the resale? I am eyeing another one....Originally Posted by Rosy
Maybe this guy is Xan. whahaha...sorry Xan.Originally Posted by Rosy
i am not looking for one. But a quick glance at property websites will show you older FH in D9,10 selling for 1500psf.Originally Posted by Ilikeu
marginal investors have no choice but to go for 5xxk shoebox new launches
WT is a gem according to many people but some others have their reservations... no one will know for sure lah... what is gem to a person may not be gem to another...
very well said.Originally Posted by gfoo
No budget to stomach the gems is also a consideration.Originally Posted by ysyap
For genuine long term investors, I am shaken by the latest measures and will not buy now.
I think Xan got a better deal (in psf) than this Sky Tan...Originally Posted by fclim
I would think (in general) <$1100psf in WT is not a bad deal in current market, considering other launches near (repeat really near) to MRT and shopping mall will be higher.
I am not really bothered by the latest measures, the market has more or less factor that in.... it is whether there will be NEW CMs...Originally Posted by Rosy
if you have few millions to spare, you can seriously taking a look at bigger units in prime districts now. There are good gems currently.Originally Posted by Ilikeu
as the name define itself, CMs are meant to cool the market, not to cause prices to fall dramaticallyOriginally Posted by Ilikeu
With the current budget. Looks like inflation is here to stay. Wats the worry is the global impact. I guess the biggest push factor is if there will be interest rate hike. Tat will determine the Man from the Boys playing in the sand box. In this real estate game who can hold and survive a slow down will be the winners.
errm. prices were falling between 1999 to 2003. u bot at the bottom ok! some of the darkest days of sg ppty market between 1999 and 2003.

well said...the tactics of marking up the price and then giving discount is one of the oldest tricks in the book, the buyers must be smart to filter out all these "lights and smoke"....common to see 20% off everywhere but it is really a discount, ask yourself....but it is amazing how often it works!Originally Posted by gfoo
perhaps Basic believe it and thought prices are dropping fast?Originally Posted by testtest
Maybe should sell it at $1.99 per pop .Originally Posted by Rosy

FEO Ticker: "Watertown - Overwhelming response - over 900 units sold!"
900 out of 992 units = 90.7% sold
Where are the good gems if I may ask? Any specific developments?Originally Posted by Rosy
I already made my point.Originally Posted by ulrich76
shall not recommend any projects here. People in this forum like to make unneccessary accusations.
Kudos to FEO, build anything also can sell, maybe the Developer of the Year..Originally Posted by Tripp
