YES - Not enough CPF Minimum Sum...sigh.
YES - Need to get higher loan for Condo. Not worth it.
NO - I can get good rental yield. Shiok man.
NO - Other reason.

IR is a money making machine, developer is more than happy to pay double or triple to contracters to work 24h everyday until 2009 to get it ready. The money will be flowing in by the min. In the case of Macau, in just one year, three casinos in Macau were able to make more than 100 casinos in Las Vegas combined.Originally Posted by Unregistered
anyone went to sales office or showflat recent?
Why didnt Quartz featured on recent Sunday Times as "Good Buy Condo"? I was hoping that our condo was reported in some ways as it will give some publicity and jack up the prices like our neighbouring condo (also near MRT) which has more media coverage. Also prices of our condo hasnt gone up alot ever since its launch. Just some thinking...
"Good Buy Condo" featured are for completed projects I think. That's why Kovan Melody was featured.
Anybody here can advise how much TQ has increased since 1st launched?
I think 20K at least bah...anyone bought a unit recently?
20k increment is considered quite little as compared to other condos these days.wonder why prices at TQ didnt pick up as much........
Since prices didn't go up much it is good news, ie. still can buy!!! Also found out another plus point, ie. "To ensure that the site was well-contested, SLA took the initiative to reduce developers’ uncertainties in bidding for the site. For example, SLA obtained an in-principle approval from the Land Transport Authority (LTA) for the construction of a covered walkway to connect the future condominium (The Quartz)to the Buangkok MRT Station. (see Pg 35 at this SLA website 2004/05 Annual Report -
www.sla.gov.sg/doc/new/SLA_AR0405.pdf ). The latest is that it obtain the Green Mark Award from BCA (see Friday 11 May 07's Life Section of Straits Times - Page 18 for detail's, eg. energy savings strategies like tinted glass to min heat from sun, well ventilated apartments with ample openning for natural lights,etc. Good for you if you choose to live in The Quartz.
Yes, agree. The BCA award is definitely a great boost to this project. Great work Guocoland!
Just drive past TQ site at about 10.30 pm tonight and noted many construction activities. The block I bought is already 10 storey. 2 weeks ago it was only 8 storey. That's great speed indeed, ie. 1 storey per week. Wonder what's the sudden rush? Is it to avoid higher future construction cost or competing speed with building IR ?
Hmm how come this article was not in the press room in GuocoLand website?Originally Posted by Unregistered
Either the Marketing Dept is sleeping or becomes complacent in view of recent good business and profit. Quite stupid not to capitalise on it.Originally Posted by Unregistered

what is the av psf now?
am looking for a value condo to stay.
Thanks.
Huh? thought showroom always there? got close meh?? u can go to the website to look at virtual showflat thoughOriginally Posted by Unregistered
hi, i have purchase a unit there and my agent recenty told me that the showroom might b close for a few days b'cos they are goin' to have a mock unit soon. Perhaps who wants to go down to their showroom can give them a call. Heard this condo is selling fast and well....
do you mind sharing what is the av psf now?Originally Posted by LA
thanks
i'v checked price with agent b4 purchase and different block and level psf varies. facing swimming pool normally more expensive. mine is not facing the pool and i got it at ard $560psf in mar this yr. but heard the price has increased. but if u r looking for a condo unit, think the price increase for TQ is still reasonable as compared to other condo.
Bro, which unit no. u buy in Mar? $560psf seems expensive leh....
opps!! type wrongly. my apologise. got it ard $546psf. actually can get a lower price at lower floor. but paid more for higher level since TQ is in neighbourhood environ.
hey which blk & unit u got? is urs pool view?Originally Posted by LA
which blk and floor? how much u paid?Originally Posted by LA
Since purchasing a home is BIG TICKET items, suggest you go to the showroom yourself to get first hand info on prices and also to see for yourself if the condo is suitable (meet your criteria) for you. Plus point is near MRT. Minus point is within HDB but also can enjoy HDB amenities. In todays market, I think comparatively its value condo to stay.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Agreed...most importantly its near to MRTOriginally Posted by Unregistered
Hope that opposite will build a big shopping mall and that will be perfect!
Thanks for the reply.
will drop by this weekend for a peek.
BTW, is TQ EC? not that it matters much, as I dun I am gonna flip it.
Not EC can sell anytime..no restrictionsOriginally Posted by ht
Hey HT, I'm interested also but currently on oversea assignment. Can you advise us the average selling price now after you go recce? I remember the last time was around $530 which was 4 months ago. Hope the price did not varies much. Thanks in advance
With regards to MRT, it is the best line (NE). Firstly, most of the stations are underground, trains are newest and most importantly comparatively less crowded. If yiou have taken MRT to Jurong Point, then you'll know what I mean by crowded and it is the same reason why NE line is losing money, ie. inadequate ridership, which is good for us commuters. NE line conveniently connects direct to key stations such as Douby Gaut, ChinaTown, Harbour Front (connect to Sentosa IR), etc. where the action is. Also got KPE connection soon. Future plans for Punggol seafront housing and activities is also something to look forward to. Hence future for NE is bright with its potential for many brand new things to come..Originally Posted by Unregistered
