Any news if there is any commercial development beside the Tanah Merah Mrt station? According to URA master plan, there should be a plot for commercial just outside the mrt station.
OMG, there goes the neighbourhood if Sheng Shiong sets up shop there

Hi guys. Do you think it is a good investment to pay between 560k and 600k for a MM unit of 409sqft?
I am considering to buy and as the TOP is June 2014, I am hoping to be able to rent it out soon.
Btw, launch is on 17th March.
Appreciate your expert opinions.
My opinion is if you are buying for investment, then buy MM unit that TOP this year. Don't wait until 2014. Unless you like this ptoject.Originally Posted by Spunk
I think the launch price will be higher than thisOriginally Posted by Spunk
Optima should TOP soon.
Nearer to MRT but LH.
Should be this range...as assured to me by the marketing agents. I should get the definite price the day before the launch. However, will prospective tenants like the mixed development? As mentioned in the earlier postings, mrt is around 10 mins walk.Originally Posted by price
Thanks for the advice. I am neutral. It's just that for a FH apartment, I believe the price is comparable to other 99LH studios.. maybe just a bit more ex..Originally Posted by Stoney Stone Stone
One word. NO.Originally Posted by Spunk
10 mins walk is just 1 concern. 10 mins walk to tanah merah is the other. if its 10 mins walk to paya lebar mrt / tanjong pagar thats different.Originally Posted by Spunk
should not be marketed as being near mrt cos its too far away...Originally Posted by Spunk
whether u walk through the landed properties or u call it shortcut doesnt make any difference at all..my colleague lives in palmwoods opposite eastvillage n he doesnt take d mrt cos he said its too far..
definitely not worth it at this psf price range..
I think this place is unique in D16.
Not that bad la.
Freehold & acess to shops at ground floor so no need to climb like the 'bedok shopping centre' (This is impt if u ask me cos people like visibility & attracted to aircon premises)
Public parking just outside, so will attract alot of afternn lunch crowd for the shops (that is if u r investing) Lunch time cp is pretty free.
Night time the place turns into a dinning inferno crowd, packed but its good as that is the character of this place.
Residents will enjoy the attention once the developer (world class land) cherry picks the anchor F&B tenants as well as supermarket 'brand'
All in all, the place shd b for someone who wants some exclusive touch in a private estate away from the buZz of bedok town.
Got a buddy doing this project. Anyone wans to know more PM me.
*My relative stay nearby so I know the place pretty well.
Ya, I find the place there quite nice too.
There is also a concept eatery place along upper changi rd. 'picardy gardens'? Got nice chicken rice, thai food, chinese seafood etc etc.Originally Posted by GSLJ
Pretty lifestyle & nice.
I am going to book my agent friend to bring me for property launch. hehe.. kaypoh abit... (he say developer got give discount for vip launch wo)

I only know how to eat nia...
The commercial units and shop are for sale? If yes, AVIOD the resi above.Originally Posted by pod
Once the shops are sold, there no control of the tenant mix anymore. Think city plaza and lucky plaza.
Yes shops for sale, and plenty of very small units. ; )Originally Posted by sh
There also have a famous Jalan Tua Kong Ah Lim fishball Noodles very nice. But quite EX.Originally Posted by pod
wa lao.. stop it!!!!!!!!!!!!!Originally Posted by Stoney Stone Stone
i hungry liao.. keep thinking of their chilli sauce... slurpppp
Just had it for lunch yesterday.Originally Posted by Stoney Stone Stone
Find it too salty leh. Both the noodles and the soup
Quality can be inconsistent when the assistant cook, instead of the boss... That place has lost theor personal touch now and running like a commercial entity.Originally Posted by Jonathan0503
The concept is not new. Look at Siglap side few projects there. Siglap v, crescendo , Siglap center etc. I donno i feel the project with malls n restaurants below appear rundown. Went to see a unit before with a Indian Resturant below. Feel like I m in India smelling the spices n curry. M sure if air dry the cloths going to be spicy

The original Lau Lim's stall is called 132 Kway Teow Mee. They have sinced moved to Blk 59 Marine Terrace, the old Lau Lim's wife does do the cooking now. Their chilli is super hot and may not suit the younger generation's taste. Also the queue is still super long, partly bcoz they are slow and also unlike Simpang Bedok, they are less organised.
I still like it bcoz there is a lot of originality in their taste, very old school and less refined. This is unlike those monotonous flavours that you taste in all the food courts mainly cooked by the Ah Tiongs.
