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.

Heard from some agent also, either 4Q of this yr or 1Q of next yrOriginally Posted by Happy 1st home
do u hv any email? can discuss over it. Also v excited also!
huh? are you sure 4Q of this year? the place is less than half built. how to get ready by 4Q? but of course, the earlier the better. I can imagine TQ now: NICE!Originally Posted by Unregistered
4Q will be most prob end dec08. This is wat i heard from my agent n few when i went to the showroom. The progress is fast. they have already started with the internal wiring quite sometime whenever i passby. Cant wait to shift in soon.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Me too..looking forward..I really hope it will be ready by Q408..so that we can spend our cny in 2009
Hi there,Originally Posted by Happy 1st home
Really? Looking forward to get our keys by Dec08. I think I will do something simple. I had spend about 80K to renovate my current HDB executives 10 years ago as It was my first home. But I don't think I will not spend much this round. I will likely convert one room into a study/relax room. Put in a massage chair, a cross trainer and etc. Really look forward to shift you ASAP.
O ya, mention about CNY09... ya i wish to have my CNY @ TQ too~
hehe its a good time to get house warming.
i think next yr cny is in jan..... provided the contractors are acting real fast. Seems like my neighbours are great people..
so happy i'm staying here.
u guys got kids already? or newly wed? or haven ROM?
for myself, i haven ROM yet. =p
Yes. I have two boys. Both in the primary school. They are also very excited about it. I bought them to the show flat last sunday. But unable to take a peek on the surrounding as the windows were all blocked. Have a good honeymoon in TQ on dec08. Cheers.Originally Posted by Happy 1st Home
Hi Happy,Originally Posted by Happy 1st Home
So you still have not ROM yet? I'm just one step above you. have ROM but have not gone thru customary yet. What do you think of hacking 2 room into one? but wardrobe already done up. Not sure whether to have it tear down since my first house is also a walk in wardrobe. In a dilemma.

why dun you get your key already. then go seesee and feel it 1st before u make up ur decision?
i trust u got floor plan right? u can make many copies and start drawing on them.
i think seeing and feeling it before u make a decision is more safer. compare to drawing on paper.
any other owners plan to do the same?? as in tear down 1 room? maybe can discuss with us here.
any good contractor to recommend?
buying a property changed my lifestyle so much.
now dare not anyhow spent $$$... can feel the pressure.
suddenly i feel my parents are so cool cuz they actually work hard and paid off the house so that we have a roof over our head.
solute to papa n mama~
btw, Lacasa n The Quintet are selling at 605k ~ 680k.
that make me feels that the quartz is so much better as its private.
~ Mummy with 2 lovely boys, ur unit is facing where?
~ LA how about urself?
i'm facing the tennis court.
b4 i bought this unit, my husband n i come into a conclusion on a walkin wardrobe. But when i went to view the mockup showroom again. It seems v wasted to have it torn down. so just seeking for friendly advises here. Always better to hear n know more. my theme is fix to b B&W.Originally Posted by Happy 1st Home
what is B & W?Originally Posted by Unregistered
Mmm... until now i'm only tinking of how i want to put my bed. >< the rest of the house i haven come to think of it. lolz
Mine is blk 63. I've got a gd contractor. He has been renovating my shops, customer houses n shops n everybody gives a thumbs up for him. What i like about him is he do not brag like most contractors n is v honest. But he is defintely not a yes man. We tell him wat we want n he shares his views with us. No prob for after service. He will make sure he sits thru the whole project. he has been my contractor for around 4 yrs.Originally Posted by Happy 1st Home
But renovating a house & buying funiture are all v costly. Do more homework b4 investing ur $$ in. Don't buy furnitures or electronic stuff b'cos of sales talk. All sales person will always make their product sound best
b&w = black & whiteOriginally Posted by Happy 1st Home
I personally go for lifestyle. so always feel that a house shld hv a theme. my first home is a white contempto theme. from the living hall/bedroom/kitchen, all the colours & furniture blend in as a them.
This is personal preference. So just sharing how I feel.
Happy: take your time to think of a theme since still quite some time to go.
OMG! we're same block! =pOriginally Posted by Unregistered
my floor plan is A1a. 1066sqft.
i like the style 1 of the previous post. my fiance n i wish to have 1 of the room converted into a gaming and relax room.
then the storeroom maybe turn into a mini study/storage. i wonder if it'll turn out okie.
got any good place to recommend to see and check out our furnitures?
ur contractor seems very reliable.
Hi Happy,Originally Posted by Happy 1st Home
My unit is facing tennis court too. Yes. Buying a property is a long term investment. All unnecessary expenses, shopping, movies must be reduced. (Less outing, save $$$$, and stay inside to enjoy the facilities) Looking forward to see you all.
Sorry 4got to put in username..Originally Posted by Happy 1st Home
really!! Mine is the higher level. Yearly, there will b 2 furniture show in Singapore Expo. check out in the newspapers. Normally mid year furniture will b slightly cheaper incomparison to year end. Depending whether aiming for high or low end furniture, places & prices varies. Watever it is, its how you put all the furniture 2gt n make it into your v own home sweet home!!
True! My husband n I decide cut down on one vacation trip for our future house.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Let's welcome all our friendly neighbours and look forward to see everybody! Cheers!
