my general feel again is that bargains are being bought. those for sale for 3 months or so have recently found buyers. the buyers started to nibble from april. transactions are still low but its also a sign that there are fewer good units for sale.
27 MAY 2014 9 PATERSON LODGE 20 PATERSON ROAD #04-04 APARTMENT FREEHOLD 850 STRATA 1,976 1,680,000
asked for 1.8m, sold for 1.68m. interesting that while the project's new name is paterson linc, perhaps becoz this project was special ( http://www.condosingapore.com/forums...postcount=2155 ), the caveat retained its old name, paterson lodge.
Hi bargain
Thanks for the update.
Went to see the unit last year Sept/Oct. It was asking for about S$2m. I didn't know about the unit number until I arrive there..I think the unit number is a major contributor to the low price. Also, it's very very noisy as it fronts the very busy Paterson Road. I didn't consider it further due to the noise and the unit number. So, it looks like the transacted price is 16% lower than the asking of S$2m Sept/Oct.
Sounds like gong Xi gong Xi and add up to 8.
Thanks everyone for the support! Find A Home Loan is Standard Chartered #1 broker in 2013.

I didnt buy it , wasnt big enough for the wife ! and slightly negative on the location , but it was a very good deal and the owners had spent a lot on decent renovation so the loss for the seller even bigger, there are many other good deals out there and we are still looking !
A unit in the tomlinson also just traded , very good value too , I looked at this unit , second floor nice but possibly a bit noisy for my liking . Sold at 4.45 million 1896 psf on the URA , the agent told me the owner had paid over 6 for it so a very big loss , he was a European moved back home and desperate to sell apparently .. this was a very good deal , very big loss I am sure !!
For those units paid In full n cravat not lodged with ura . .how to track the price? Just wondering. .
1st of all, even when unit is not paid in full, it may still not have any caveat. A "caveat" is nothing more than a claim. you dun HAVE to lodge a caveat.
when a caveat is not lodged, or title not registered (less likely), the only way to get a record is through property agency's own record (that is, if the deal involves agent). Before SRX, you have to check individual agency. Now with SRX, it has most of the agencies in it so you can check through it. They have an app, very convenient.
it's just a simple app, you can download it from app store. the interface is in fact quite nice, much better than the "official" URA one. the app itself is free. the data access is of course not. It basically merges URA records with agency data. Not only it has some data that URA does not have, its records are also more updated, as every deal closed by agent is in the db, before it is lodged in URA.
"do we need to pay" ... what do you think ?
