Waterfront Waves (D16, 99 year LH, Frasers Centrepoint / Far East Organization)

[noblebaby]

how to justify the value of the unit??

If the entire area sellig at the same high price, and the surrounding HDBs r also selling at high price + high COV.

unless private condo got those figures like P/E, P/B, etc etc

anyway, a lot of thing money cant buy also.

Sorry I don't talk much in this forum. But I do share the same sentiments with Wild Falcon. He is not trying to down play the MRT stn that you guys sees. But the no of station does matters and the availability of transfers and convenience of Interchanges does matters. NOt forgetting more station need higher MRT fares since everything now goes by distance-based.

Sometime straight-bus journey is more pleasant. Juz my thoughts.[/quote]

Hi
To begin with if you have followed this thread from the start.

Most if not all WFW buyers bought it w/o knowing that there
will be a station right beside. Even developer did not know.
Some speculated near tropica. I guess most are buying more
for self stay as they like the environment, particularly the reservoir. Of course is a bonus if there is capital gain in the future.

Thanks to Noblebaby & Ken who did alot of legwork, photos & research to predict where's the exact location of the Stations. The WFW party mood just build up till....

So you can imagine the joyous mood when the DTL 3 is announced right beside us.
Not all are buying purely for investment in mind and we did not claim that this is the best investment property in sgp.

The shout of "huat", gold coast, etc is the crazy party being estatic and rejoicing & celebration I guess. No time to analyse the line yet.

It is not so much of deffensive but rather I guess knee-jerk response to a somewhat different frequency & agitated guess who did not understand what's this estatic mood all about.

I believe there are even big time buyers who bought just to enjoy & serve their guest over weekend watching water ski & dragon boat race.

Hope everyone has cooled down & get back with life..

The crazy party mayb predicting when the TOP now....

Consider one if u are in the same frequency.....

Why people don't see obvious benefits of DLT3 for WFW/WFK/Baywater:

1. 25 mins during peak hours to Suntec Tower 3/4 excluding walking time to MRT, I can bet on it. It is that accurate at peak hours. If want to go city hall just walk from Esplanade station underground, aircon With future marina bay extension, another 5-8mins to MBS

2. 15 mins - 20 mins to Changi Airport

3. 2 stops to watch movie at Tampines

4. MRT stations near good schools e.g. St Hilda, Maha Bodhi

5. 30 mins to Bishan/AMK/Botanic garden via circle line

any bro has pics of the possible views (of the reservoir) from the 4th/5th flr ?
or a 'distant' view of the blocks with the trees?

I think the lowest floor to have a decent view is 6 or 7.

[noblebaby]

maybe u can walk to the opposite side of the reservoir to hav a look

[acewee]

The lowest balcony you see in the picture is the 6th floor. And even that barely clear trees. You may have higher chance of reservoir view on 1st or 2nd floor by view through tree trunks. And I'm not being sarcastic.

[Komo]

The whole block looks low despite of the "elevated height". I think even the height of 6th floor is about the same as HDB 6th floor, which has high void deck.

[acewee]

The elevation is only 1 floor up so the effect will not be very obvious on the whole. Nonetheless, if you stand along the road, you will notice the raised level quite easily. But the intent is to ensure more privacy for the 1st level units, not to allow more residents to get reservoir view.

Construction started late... No point fast is quality is poor....

[noblebaby]

Livia is using pre-cast stacking, this method is 30% faster n the cost is also much lower.

Ya lor, livia also catching up or overtaken even tho launched much later. Doesn't developer lose more money by slowing down the construction deliberately

[noblebaby]

Still undervalued n its cheaper than key n gold... Should wait abit longer...
