Italian Job! Must be con by agent and force you to commit fast!
Agents normally will tell buyer that the unit is selling fast; stack almost sold out; if you don't take it now, others will take, etc. Lots of bull-shits from them!

I remember someone mentioning here that there is a huge signboard outside the construction stating that waterfront waves will TOP around September 2011. Why now dragged to 2nd quarter of 2012. All this will affect my PLANS!!! Grr...
Newbie
Units still available. thanks

We also need take note that from 2008, the vol is dropping dramatically, mainly due to investors leave the market, then push the % of HDB upgrading increasing, but the real vol for those HDB Upgrading may not increase, most likely decrease for the past 1 year plus.....Another piece of good news.

As a conclusion, although the % looks increasing a lot, the fact may be different --- the actual number of HDB upgrading cases for the past 1 year plus is much less than in the year of 2006 & 2007. Numbers mislead people in many cases
If you believe that the property market will not be up for quite long time, why rush? I continue
Newbie
Actually from the past experience, the so called % hit the peak in 2002, but many best deals come at 2004 ~ 2005, so for this time, I believe the % will hit the peak in 2009, so likely the best deals will be around 2011...

I have to offer my two cents here to agree. If you show that you are interested, you can be sure they will call you about 1-2 hours after you leave the showflat. They will tell you that it is selling fast for other floors, etc. I noticed the same tactic used for different developments.Italian Job! Must be con by agent and force you to commit fast!

I some how agree with your comment... From investment perspective, now is still not the good time to buy. Statistically, the property market will only bottom out 6-9 months after the real economy hit rock bottom. Singapore economy is just half way through the dark tunnel.Actually from the past experience, the so called % hit the peak in 2002, but many best deals come at 2004 ~ 2005, so for this time, I believe the % will hit the peak in 2009, so likely the best deals will be around 2011...

As for own stay, now may not be the bad time to buy as long as the purchase is within own comfort zone... Most importantly is to find an ideal unit or one of the best within the project with reasonable pricing. There is really no reason to purchase a unit with poor facing, inferior layout or non-strategic location, just because of the price is low.

keke.....2011? The thing is for this kind of deep recession, you may not even see the normal stock market recovery ahead of the economy. Past trend thingy not really applicable.Actually from the past experience, the so called % hit the peak in 2002, but many best deals come at 2004 ~ 2005, so for this time, I believe the % will hit the peak in 2009, so likely the best deals will be around 2011...

The initial TOP in 2010 has been pushed further to 2012 due to poor sales.

Waterfront Waves enjoys brisk sales
DEFYING wide consensus of a more subdued private property market here amid US sub-prime woes, house hunters bought half the 120 units launched over the weekend at Waterfront Waves.
The project, near Bedok Reservoir, is a 405-unit condominium jointly developed by Far East Organization and Frasers Centrepoint (FCL).
The average price achieved for the 60 units sold was $750-800 per square foot (psf), with one unit fetching the highest price of $874 psf.
"Waterfront Waves has this exclusive product differentiation - it is one of the last developments with direct view of the Bedok Reservoir," said Cheang Kok Kheong, chief operating officer of Frasers Centrepoint Homes.
The private preview of the Waterfront Waves over the weekend drew a good turn-up of close to 1,000 people.
Giving the breakdown on the profile of the buyers, Mr Cheang noted that 30 per cent of them have HDB addresses and 70 per cent have private addresses. Most of them indicated that they were looking to stay in the new units.
Located near the Bedok Reservoir and less than two minutes from the Pan Island Expressway, the condominium is slated for completion in 2010 with construction work likely to start by the third quarter of this year.
Mr Cheang said he does not see a softening of property market sentiment as the sub-prime problem will likely blow over in another six months to one year.
"There is still strong demand for the entry-level private property market in selected areas with quality living standards," said Mr Cheang.
With three of the nine blocks at Waterfront Waves already launched, FCL is now looking to launch a few more blocks this weekend.

Why dun you head over to the showflat and sit down with the agent and strike off those already been sold?Roger, we appreciate if you can provide info on the unsold 3brm & 4brm unit as well (unit no. & star buy price). Cheers!
Better than you ask and get the figures 2 days later.
Newbie
Agreed with you... you may be able to get the ideal unit you want once the market bottom out. It maybe sold by then or asking for higher psf.I some how agree with your comment... From investment perspective, now is still not the good time to buy. Statistically, the property market will only bottom out 6-9 months after the real economy hit rock bottom. Singapore economy is just half way through the dark tunnel.

Not worth so much lah. Below $600/psf is more like it. Too many crazy ppl paying too much. Stick to less than $600 sure get.
Just see how much the surrounding selling.
Newbie

Newbie
