I wonder how close will the actual development as compared to the model in the showroom? Such as wall, path access etc.

Depending on the reputation of the dev. Most are 99%.Originally Posted by pinkpolkadot
But for internal furnishing......really depends.
Usually it will be very close. Trust it more than brochure for sure.
Actually brochure more trust worthy. Because you keep it and can compare with with the final product.Originally Posted by carbuncle
Model gets thrown away as soon as project is sold out to "destory evidence"... After that you lan lan...
On the brochure usually there is a fine print that says.... artist's impression.Originally Posted by sh
Floor plan should be zhun... the rest i am not sure.
Sorry. Pls enlighten how you present 3D information in 2D print brochures?Originally Posted by sh
Huh? 3d model in showroom, not in brochures.Originally Posted by carbuncle
Unless you're talking about computer generated perspectives that are most misleading.
Pop-up brochures... ?Originally Posted by carbuncle
yes. did came across a project - on brochures the artist's impression of the swimming pool area has foldable beach chairs on one side of the pool.Originally Posted by howgozit
when TOP, it became a walk way......no space at all to put simi chair.....
The brochure is really funny. Reminds me of Watertown where the waterway looks like a reservoir. Also, be careful about floorplan as they do not tell you the floor size of bedrooms. You could end up with study rooms insteadOriginally Posted by howgozit
I just collected a newly completed and found that the model is different from the actual one, and disputed. reply from developer
" This model of the development, .......is based on
Artist’s impressions and intended only as a guide. The Developer
reserves the right to alter or amend the design. This model shall not
form part of an offer or contract or be construed as any
representation by the Developer or its agent. All areas and
measurements are approximate and subject to adjustment on final
survey."
What stated in S&P is enforceable (but note, a lot of items are on equivalent of certain brands) and not the model or even the show units
I pressed very hard on the developer that they did not use an approved plan to build the model, but they just said they are well covered by the disclaimer clause, and if need, take up legal action with them.
I think, last Sunday, the Chinese paper mentioned that CASE stays clear with this sort of arguement.
How about those brochures with ang mos strolling in the condo's compound or sun tanning in bikinis by the pool
Angmos sold separately.Originally Posted by howgozit
You might get them if you buy condos from District 9.Originally Posted by howgozit

Likewise, i bought during 09 & the showflat already dismantled. The brochure shows an extended breakfast countertop but when i collected the keys there was no extension. I tell myself nv to buy from this developer again.Originally Posted by Laguna
Can share the developer name here? So that we can all boycottOriginally Posted by maisonjai
many small time developers like dat lor.....u cant boycott everybody cos some day bound to have some good deals....LL also buy.Originally Posted by Allthepies
so what does the water really look like...Originally Posted by insigina
bro if i bought during 09 especially early 09...i be kissing the developer...Originally Posted by maisonjai
All the water in brochures look blue blue..... Reality? Brown brown!Originally Posted by radha08
Bluewater don't exist in Singapore
The water all look good in the brochure but when you visit the site, it is only a streamOriginally Posted by radha08
No need so serious bah, it's usual practise that there's an escape clause subject to architect's "broad stroke" to alter or even change fittings/appliances.Originally Posted by Allthepies
heee ...u r right, subsale prices up 45% when I took keys. Rectify defects, do up the place & tenant shifted in. I remember 1 forummer said don't get emotional over investment, so didn't bother to pursue & spend my time hunting for next buy.Originally Posted by radha08
Do u intend to take up a case with the developer?Originally Posted by Laguna
Even the S&P is not helpful plus CASE is shunning such cases. Don't think got much grounds to make noise...Originally Posted by pinkpolkadot
I am still recovering from my recent operation. I will check with my lawyer friend first when I fully recover. This is going to be costly to have legal action against a listed developer.Originally Posted by pinkpolkadot
I will also write to BCA / URA and perhaps newspaper.
Afterall, I hv the foto to proof.
Anyway, I hv rented out the unit alr, I got it very very cheap.
Can share what went wrong?Originally Posted by Laguna
This is a ground floor unit and it supposed to have ledge from the front, side to the backyard.Originally Posted by pinkpolkadot
But what given was only ledge for the front patio.
The plan given to the model builder was an unapproved and have clear non-compliance to the fire regulations.
Take care of ur health, speedy recoveryOriginally Posted by Laguna
