Sky Habitat - Bishan

[price]

And I actually prefer the vibe at Potong Pasir than Bishan. Bishan no matter what, people will know its an area without any freehold land - at best a 99LH HDB or low-end 99LH condo. The area near Bishan MRT doesn't have any character. Its not countryside or laidback, neither is it very heartland like Ang Mo Kio. Just nothing other than MRT station with Junction 8. And RI is a secondary school that admit students by PSLE results. No need to be within 1km. But then the Bishan HDB dwellers while don't earn the most (btw, the richest HDB dwellers based on income tax filings are apparently in Punggol and Jurong West), are the most willing to pay an arm and leg for property.

Because the youngest Gen Y couples are all moved into Punggol due to the recent years of BTO launches ma.

CapitaCommercial Trust (CCT) is Singapore's first listed commercial REIT.

You been paying income tax for nothing!

Reading the papers today. Their strategy is basically to present a sky high price for their sky habitat create some hype and talking point. during launch, they will drop it to 1500 psf or so and people would somehow think it's a more reasonable deal and start snapping it up.

Simple yet effective marketing strategy.

There are subsidiaries of Capitaland that are listed as REITS but not Capitaland per se.

Just hope that Potong Pasir will be done up. The entire estate looked v old, other than the new condos in that area... sigh!

where did you get that information from ?? Or are you just simply preparing yourself for the (seemingly unlikely) scenario this one actually sells ?

My is that Sitoh will have to announce something within these few years before the next GE. Don't think he wants another marginal win

The eastern side seem to have its own dynamics. Maybe all the massive land sales lately is to address the "imbalance'?

Eastern side? i don't get it. I think if they wanna merge it into a GRC they cant merge with Hougang, or Aljunied so theres only TPY or Marine Parade
(part of serangoon belongs to MP)?

Last GE, the MIW share of votes from the east side fared worse than other regions. PP will not merge with Hougang or Aljunied but maybe AMK? Serangoon now is mostly Aljunied.

Read the news and stats not too long ago. HDB estates by household income.

#1 Punggol
#2 Pasir Ris
#3 Jurong West
#4 Clementi (this one not sure - but one of the top)

not about the income, but about this statement about "Bishan HDB people" :

But then the Bishan HDB dwellers while ... are the most willing to pay an arm and leg for property

when u say something like this it seems to me u already concluded "Bishan HDB ppl" will still buy this. is this not the case ?

A lot of young working couples in these estates. It might be more difficult but more accurate to measure household wealth instead.

TPY may be a one-term MP. or maybe MIW will give her two terms so that she gets her pension, and then she's out.
