Don't think Korean Or Japanese will buy property in SG. in any case, Singapore's "Koreatown" is in Upper Bukit Timah area. Not Bishan.

I think FEO bad quality is a myth propagated by people who don't own FEO properties. I've seen some other local developers that are worse. At least FEO give decent ceiling height even for non-SOHO. I think FEO developments in the past 10 years are ok. Those older than that I'm not sure.

sorry hor, got to look at whole package. FEO like CMI location , put some marble n sell @ record prices. all my old generation relatives whom bought FEO properties all swear never to touch their projects. But good to buy near FEO proj. Eg, Buy EC near mi Casa, huat till cannot huat!! Aiya, no need quote too much example, i m sure u know 90% of them.Originally Posted by devilplate
u want to talk abt normal finishing/ or CMI in your opinion, go check out the sail n its psf. Location Location Location. When shit hits the fence, its all that matters.
Location Location Location is passe.
It's value relatively to the location. The best location may NOT give the best return. PROVEN.

serious? $1.2Kpsf? same time as Rivergate $1.2k time? 2008 recession time?Originally Posted by dtrax
Floridian $2K psf !!! people still buy. wonder why ? maybe for good school nearby.Originally Posted by dtrax
If location cmi and u buy cause got marble only got urself to blame ma?? Why blame FEO? Doesnt mean that location sux they gotta give lousy flooring right?Originally Posted by DaytonaSS
rivergate launch 10xx psf, recession a few units were selling at 1.2k psf per piece.. cheap until lao saiOriginally Posted by DaytonaSS
Confirm. It's value relatively to location. FEO sell at super premium at every location they are at. If u examine their strategy, buy cheap land at CMI location. Put some stabs of marble n sell record price. Better still , package air space n sell mezzaine lvl.Originally Posted by Wild Falcon
Their price is at least 10 years future pricing. My relative, FEO staff, also very proud they can sell at super premium. He even comment if FEO is selling bedok resident, wont be selling so cheap.
U r right , it's value relative to location. If u buy one unit beside FEO, that is great value. Like your fav FEO The Lanai, or even Hiller, just buy any hill view development , only ard $1k Psf avg straight away tons of value. So much value, get the best returns. Dont u agree?
Hillview is not a lousy place, to begin with.Originally Posted by DaytonaSS
+ lippo dumped its 80 rivergate units (the largest type) at 1300psf.

I didn't say hillview is lousy, WF like hill view , so I talk HV lor. I merely quote him the value of location. End of day it's still LOcation location location.
Actually I think FEO has had a major political change in recent years..
Not trying to sound inauspicious, but when the late NTF was at the helm, fEO projects was cmi.
But ever since the younger son at the helm, I feel that FEO has improved in terms of their product offerings and service. I mean just take a look at Watertown, sure price higher, sure lousy marble flooring (even though marble but each of the marble slab in te showflat guaranteed to have 1 major fault line running through), but at least the higher pricing is justified due to
Project right above MRT and comes with a good sized shopping centre.
Another good example (is none other than my favorite) The Clift. I feel that FEO has improved their build quality over Icon. Sure icon may have more facilities but the build quality did not last. After Many recent visits to the Clift, I can see that FEO has improved in their build quality and hence I really like the project a lot.
I'm not familiar with other newer far east projects right now- maybe seastrand, but even for seastrand if you see it in another way - it's location is slightly closer to MRT. Perhaps that's where te premium lies in for the project?
Actually no need study layout n floor plans lah, u got see recent reports storeroom also can rent out. As long as storeroom is at good location n cheap, can also rent out, better still no need marble stabs. So as WF says, value @ location. ProvenOriginally Posted by devilplate
Better clarify, I thinkFEO is a great company! Great if u own a share in the company! Huat till cannot huat. I don't hate FEO or their offering. Its my personal opinion that it's great value to own something near/beside it rather than in it. Oh, on that note, only thing i feel strongly is "say no to mscp"
I also don't shoot down pple who are keen in properties in OCR, just in case.....Every time I say location location location, sensitive pple think it's OCR vs CCR.
To me, it's location, convenience,population density, greenery n most impt, space.
Bro, frankly, at $2m quantum and above, it very hard to find buyers...... The % is so small. The riches pple are all staying out. Like my businessman client tell me, now it's only those whom have missed the boat trying to get on. Those make few hands already are now low balling to find good deals.....Originally Posted by bargain hunter
so between buying Sky Habitat and Thomson Grand, which is a better option?Originally Posted by DaytonaSS
Did FEO spend too much $$$ on build quality n got nothing left for more facilities? I didn't have a chance to visit the Clift , but from DP Pics some time back, the units look like not bad.Originally Posted by Ricade
