Cairnhill area property prices so expensive (definitely more expensive than Mount Sophia area)! May be nearer to the Hospitals got premimum?
Next to Mt Eliz the prices of Richmond Park despite being a much older condo and ah peh look is more expensive than Cairnhill Crest (further from Mt Eliz).

toking about residential feel leh....y prices comes into picture?

SG still a asian country afterall....many families still pantang about facing or live next to hospital....near to hospital can be a plus point but not next to it lor....

btw, there is also a status diff between TTS and mount E

[teddybear]

Every time a tenant left, have to clean up and touch up the property for next tenant. Extra costs incurred because many of these can be attributed to wear-and-tear which can't be charged to tenant.
Extra effort handling the agents for such short lease. What for? Premium properties should not be leased out like for chicken coop

wat effort u r toking about?

6mth lease==>1/4mth agt's comm(make sure u receive 1mth deposit....if not reject it)

after 6mths....majority of the units rented out oredi....tenants lesser choice===>higher rent.....supply vs demand

[teddybear]

I thought you are saying near hospitals are always bad?
All the Cairnhill area so near hospitals yet so expensive! Ritz Carlton, the 2nd or 3rd most expensive property price set in Singapore, is near the hospital!

u wana accept 6mths first or leave it vacant for 3-6mths?? the choice is clear....if u got holding power....tinking rental is peanut...den different story

Near hospital means:-

1) Add more people who like staying near/beside hospital
2) Minus people who dislike/bantang near or facing hospital

If 2 > 1, then you have lesser pool of buyers. Of course, more potential buyers = higher price

[thomastansb]

You are rich

When did you buy? Anyway, prices have gained so much during the last 2 years so I guess you will be fine. Yield like 7-8% at least?

I bot subsale.... Seller lelong for more den a mth.... Cant find better firesale so i take tis.... Not my first choice definitely....hehe

As for px appreciation, still lag far behind clift

[thomastansb]

Rental strong for the next 2-3 years so just collect rental first lor. With such low interest rate, I think easily 70-80k nett rental gain in 3 years.

I heard Clift highest rental in Singapore. >$8 psf.

Not so high....7-7.5psf more likely

[DC33_2008]

We should not view $psf rental in isolation. It should correspond with the condo purhase price (pp) in $psf or actual pp. Subsale unit may not be so lucrative given higher entry level.

[fragglerock]

Guys, I am buyer keen on a 2 bedder unit that is not directly facing TTS or getting any direct east/west sun. Serious sellers pls contact me thru sms at 91056110 and indicate your asking. Low/Mid floor acceptable.

BTW, anyone can advise on the brands of the equipment that is included in this project?


Cheers`

Just sharing with potential buyers.

For those interested in 2bedder, my take is in order to scale above Velocity office block and Hotel Oasis, min 30flr and above, and will have a unblock view all the way to bt timah hill from a far distance

Studio unit mainly the view is much inferior with pocket view between buildings.

My and do bear with the low quality pic

[devilplate]

low flr pool facing will be the most sought after....

Well said. Totally agreed as the high floor units though have unblock view, but the quantum is very much higher

So potential buyers, your choice, your preference and your $$ cheers!

[fragglerock]

Thanx flxcat and devilp for sharing. To the few who SMS me,I will revert sn.

May I know on which level did you take this picture?

Because building height you`ve seen in front can be different by the height you are and actually there is a bit of distance between Soleil and Velocity office or Hotel Oasia.

So if I am not wrong, cannot say only 30flr above can have unblock view.
Exact blocking may be able to confirm after TOP.

Hi trump7
The pic was taken at 30flr of HDB flat near to farrer park mrt.
Indeed you correctly pointed out, I am aware of the distortion due to the level the pic is taken hence try to take at similar level ht at building where is accessible.

Will be great if any bro or Sis can share better pic taken from their unit in nearby apt or offices and will be better gauge. Cheers!

Either its facing TTSH with not much unblocked view or not facing TTSH but lots of blocked view.

Hi ginseng1,

I believe you mean level 6A of velocity rite, where there is an extension of the carpark

Just an observation, the open air fitness area next to the tennis court, in my opinion FCH did not really do a good job. Do you forsee you would like to exercise and breath in warm air from carpark and the many aircon compressor from both Oasis hotel and velocity. Might be better leaving it as grass patch, or better still build a shelter (if not exceeding the GFA) and have a drink/snatch vending machine for refreshment after a good tennis game.

[ginseng1]

Oh, didn't take note of that as I was only keen on the tennis court and looking out for the placement of the side gate that leads to the shopping centre.

I am surprised that the sidegate was facing TTSH of all places.

Not sure of the car park level but it was the extension as correctly mentioned.

[ginseng1]

To my neighbours living near the tennis courts, please be forgiving as I play like Djokovic but not monica seles

[bargain hunter]
