JURONG GATEWAY CONDO LAUNCHING!!

[Regulators]

This is the dumbest thing one can say coz it is needless to say. I can also say Singapore linked to Thailand via the causeway n a series of roads heading north...geezzz

JLD is linked to all other part of Singapore via road and MRT tracks.

[amk]

Is it normal till now still no sales update ? The last weekend is only cheque collection not selling is it ? .... Otherwise HK Land should at least announce something to SGX... Any agent has info ?

[august]

Didnt you say that you have vested interest in JLD because you own a property in Bukit Batok?

Anyway, please stop making silly remarks about JLD for not being up to orchard standards because JLD was never meant to be one.

but we have some in the forum, perhaps they are agents, alluding that JLB will be right up there with prime CCR and orchard leh. I read already cannot help but laugh

There is no sales. Sales will start next Fri with balloting. What is going on now is viewing by appointment and submission of cheques for those interested to ballot.

[amk]

Thanks. Hey if truly HK style it will announce through press "xxxx cheques collected" to further boost the "buying momentum"

I went to have a look today. The agents say many cheques are collected. Of cos i don't expect them to say otherwise. Also the place quite packed with viewers considering it is a Monday lol. They are definitely generating considerable buzz.

Just because you own a unit RH, that doesnt mean the bukit batok is special and that it is the only township that is qualify to linked to JLD.

I am glad now you know how stupid your argument sound.

Look who is bringing up regent ht n bukit batok again , what a stupid clown

JLD blueprint was never about replacing Orchard nor does it try to pretend to be one. The only thing that is close is that psf price does over lap with prices in CCR. Then again, J Gateway is not the only OCR project that is selling as such high psf price.

when making comparison its better to compare apple to apple. E.. for similar property like J gateway (500sqft next to mrt in CCR orchard) it will already be in the region of >2000psf.

[Regulators]

Wow, associating with jld makes it special? Why hasn't anyone thought of that lol. ... what a clown again. ..

Any idea which facing is good? Southwest facing can see the lake but face mrt track and future bus interchange, northeast facing hospital(not direct facing the building) and boonlay way. Hard to decide

i think your comparison can be misleading and simplistic.

Bcos if you really want to compare you shld also take into account unit sizes. This is bcos the only reason why OCR is selling at psf that may overlap with some prices in CCR is bcos these OCR unit sizes have shrunk tremendously hence allowing developer to sell at very high psf.

so u are not actually comparing apple to apple lah.

[Regulators]

My advice , if u not comfortable with any facing , don't buy

I did mention that is we compare similar size unit with attribute like being near MRT, CCR price are all above $2000psf.

[mygeemeel]

Agree. If can choose please avoid mrt facing or blocks that will get echo or stereo of mrt noise.

In the past when flipping was possible (no ssd), it doesn't matter which unit you buy so long as lowest psf. The flipping was fast and buyers only look at map, not physical unit. However construction is 3~4 years, you are still under the ssd period. So by the time you are out of ssd, buyers get to see your top unit. They may be bothered by the noise. I am not saying everyone will avoid noise facing units. It is just troubling when you have buyers commenting 'yeee... so noise. Kids cannot study, must always close windows, and all sorts of reasons'.

If prices do fall drastically, i hope to buy lakeside area. But many bought with ssd, i don't think they can stomach the lost if need to sell.

I think the one making simplistic comparison is not ringo33 but is regulator...

If regulator or anyone can share with me a private condo unit of size 500sqft within 200m from mrt within CBD area selling at 1600psf with at least 95 years lease remaining, please tell me, going to buy buy buy...

Don't meant to start a fight as its very tiring.
But this statement has been repeated and asked so many times and is a typical example of associating and comparing CBD and JLD again.
Thus, JLD supporter cannot blame those who tends to compare prime area with JLD.

I don't get what you are driving at.
forget about the lease or distance to MRT, if you can find a CCR selling at 1600psf you are not going to get shoebox size like J Gateway. Right?

[oops]

They should sell the 3 bedroom at min $1500 psf and the 1 bedroom min $1800 psf.This pricing is much, much cheaper than Marina Bay condos which are selling at $4000 - 5000 psf.

He is basically implying JLD is as good as CBD and if u can get a CBD unit around 500sqft and is within 200m near mrt at 1600psf, he will buy. Else non JLD supporters can just shut up and don't keep complaining JLD is expensive.

I hope I interpret correctly

Just trying to say CBD already pricing >2200psf for new launch 500sqft 1 bedder, and 3000psf for Bay Area and orchard. I'm never comparing JLD with city.

Regulator say at 1600psf, he rather buy city. But to get 1600psf city, the unit will be dammed big.... How to find city 500sqft at 1600psf? Not saying JLD is city standard but more on his statement that 1600psf, 800K can buy CBD condo within 200m mrt...

Paisei my England not very powerful...

Also very tired to explain all these again and again

If this is the case, maybe your comparison should be RCR e.g Sennett which is a better fit. Else very misleading.

Apologies if I misinterpret your statement.
