Why the market react to the reccession so differently from the pass ? They are very majority of them still buying. I think the they are from very cash reach minority ENBLOCER making the different. So that mass market remain "strong" even in the reccession period and it never happen in the pass. Second group of minority buyers are foriegner. They are not willing to pay high rent inorder for landloard to cover their installment, so they buy.Originally Posted by RegĄstered

At least for now we haven't seen this happening in the job market.

For 800 to 900psf, can get a freehold or 999yr condo in the central zone (eg. citysquare, one st michael, beacon heights etc.). If outskirts condo can sell so high, it is good news for condos in the central that will fetch much higher...

Unless one is saying the $841psf buyer is stupid! I can confidently say this buyer is not stupid.
I would rathe buy a condo not so near MRT but close proximity to town than buy a condo far from town but close proximity to MRT for the same price in PSF. When people talk about location, proximity to town comes before proximity to MRT.....

I personally think staying in HDB town centre with more chinese give me more of those home, kampong feeling, rather than always try to pretent like 'ang mo' by staying in those area where alot of pretenders.
if the condo not so near MRT does not have a good network of public transport, i don't think it is a good buy either.Originally Posted by CCR or RCR
wont go wrong buying pty in central. That is the safest bet jokes aside. Can u just imagine 10yr down the road how scarce land in central zone going to be? Roads in central mostly well connectd. I would rather live in central away frm mrt but have gd roads n bus routes than the a condo in ulu sengkang near sengkang mrt. Suppose preferences vary but in pty terms, central always has a higher intrinsic value that outskirt pty.Originally Posted by near or far

I would prefer suburb with peaceful and quiet environment.
Also a lot of greneries to release your tension away after tiring day at the office.

If it cost 800 psf like what you said, I myself will certainly go for it as it is freehold.
beacon heights anytime better than Quartz as it is in central.Originally Posted by Property Hunter
Exactly, now is ard $1100+ psf. The price of $800+ is year 2006.....wake up agents!Originally Posted by Property Hunter
