compARE 1 shenton vs clift....which one better hah ?
HAHAH good one, u do know u on CLift thread right.Originally Posted by Lovelle
haha,,,will sure invite some 1 shenton ppl in here for a good WWE....
Location wise, I think no doubt is 1 shenton. I mean, Marina bay, you can't really compare. But if I were to rent at the same price, I would get Clift. Quieter + yummy food. LPS food sucks. Also, 1 shenton cannot rent too low right? They bought quite high. Anything below 4k, they will be sweating. Anyway, both in the same location so I assume rental would be similar.

Wait till Robinson suites TOP. That is a killer for rental.

Just came back from another round of viewing, the facilities are really good, massage palour, afresco dinning, glass sauna, club house etc of cos can't compare to large mass market condo but heard it's at least better den icon n sail (less tennis court).
No offends to OS owners, in fact I really like the classy gold facade. Looks damn cool.
I was torn between these two for a long long time.

heard few 1bedders rented at 4k...work out to be 7.6-8psf
2bedder cud possibly hit 6.5-7psf...
so average cud hit 7-7.5psf! overtake Vida/Icon!
One of the unit goes for 4.2k..
din noe tat....hmm....4.2k p/f?Originally Posted by shauntanzs

ok clearedOriginally Posted by devilplate
ok cleared liao...Originally Posted by devilplate
after looking @ the 1 bedders bedroom with glass wall or concrete wall layout,i must say the concrete wall bedroom layout is much better imo..though it seems bigger with glass wall effect,u will need to build blinds or curtains to cover up the bedroom..concrete wall will be much more practical n will save u lots of hassle. just my
so u window shop shop recently? lolOriginally Posted by fiat500
spotted some potential window shoppers lately....hehe
ya,went couple of times already. have seen all the layouts but all low floor units.,wonder what the view will be like for those above #20? personally,i find the view on the swimming pool side is nicer but agents said those facing conservation side more costly due to east facing.Originally Posted by devilplate
wow....couple of times? u got a unit there?Originally Posted by fiat500
swimming pool side got chance their view will be blocked in future....whereas the other side is zero....tats how i value it.....furthermore, depends u wana see pinnacle(high end HDB) or raffles place office buildings.....
but luckily, FEO super smart....place the pool facing the west.....the pool is sunny and looks yummy! lumiere pool sucky and dark dark.....
how to buy? so expensive.Originally Posted by devilplate
clift all above 1mil for 1 bedder.
looking forward to view 1 shenton now but just look look see see for fun only.
my target is to get kembangan suites,still affordable there.
talking about sun,FEO also placed the pool in the icon on the west side,they are very good when it comes to all these details
Kembangan Suites - quite a few units already selling. What you waiting for? TOP?Originally Posted by fiat500
i wanted to view the units 1st in KS but was told by agent the t.o.p delayed.. not sure how long would be the waiting period? any idea?Originally Posted by mcmlxxvi
Not sure. From the look of things should be few weeks ba. You sure wanna wait till Top? Price will rise another 15 to 20% then. Have you seen any other projects nearby? What do you like about KS?Originally Posted by fiat500
DO 1 bedder much better den ks
doubt KS will go up much once it t.op,at most 5%..clift also didnt move much upwards when it t.o.p recently,some units are still selling at same price as b4.Originally Posted by mcmlxxvi
there is no need to rush into buying now,plenty to choose out there.its better to see the unit physically than looking at floorplans.
i like KS location, the mrt is almost at its doorsteps n yet shielded away fom the noise by kembangan plaza.
KS not many units... So asking px higher chance to go up once urgent sellers offloaded.... Clift got more units
Vy soon clift will start from 1.1mil ... Not many units below 1.1mil left
got other aspects to consider..eg: D'Oasia abit far from the mrt compared to KS n for me personally i dont fancy projects beside religious properties.Originally Posted by devilplate
Talk about religious - some of the units are staring right at the masjid along changi road, plus you get free 'music' when they do the prayers... They use loudspeakers. Guess either you get chinese temple dong dong qiang or chanting from mosque... Hard to choose between both.Originally Posted by fiat500

if its staring directly,its a no-go for me also..Originally Posted by mcmlxxvi
so which do u recommend? D'OASIA or KS? n why?
do not give your views if u are vested in either DO or KS..
if both same psf...my heart goes to DO.....better layout, better facilities, no retail shops below, no big longkang, KS will hf lots of pedestrian walking past the devt....however, KS strong point is literally next to MRT.....not vested in bothOriginally Posted by fiat500
having said tat, i prefer devt along lor G TK near to longkang even though further from mrt...hehe
ok so much so for kembangan.....lets go bck to CBD...particularly the clift
OS asking px from 1.2mil for their smallest unit.....unless OS drop their asking px....clift got gd chance to start from 1.1mil soon
