Since u bought the unit before 17Feb07, then the price for that unit still available after 17Feb07 meh? Unless the agent has 2 price list? One is before price increase and the other is to be used for purchase after 17Feb07?Originally Posted by Ms Ang
DO you have the price list of other units?
The design of the Quartz is 100x better than Kovan Melody! Modern and stylish, looks like some high end condo in River Valley or Newton! Kovan Melody looks like some EC in Tampines or Choa Chu Kang, totally not worth the money.

Sorry I do not remember the price for other units, just aware that is up by average 6%

I feel that Quartz really good buy...plus got potential to develop around..
Hope a big shopping mall will build at the empty land...can turn into a all-in One Hub. Better invest now than to wait till got its more developed then price will increase more!
So you compare your current purchase price with what is going to be the release price after 17Feb07 and it shows an increase of abt 6%?Originally Posted by Ms Ang
Btw, u paying stamp duty now?
I bought a 3+1 unit last year for $650K ($480 psf) and on the 10 Feb I visited the re-open showflat. The salesperson was encouraging me to buy the 3+1 type which has limited units. Then to my surprise, the price quoted for the one that is 2 floor lower than mine is $710K / $520 psf (nett after discount). He told me its good buy and to be fast, as after CNY (17 Feb), the price will move-up about 6% to $750K / $548 psf. Ms Ang, did they really increase 6% after 17 Feb or its just a marketing pressure?Originally Posted by Ms Ang
i went to the quartz last week after CNY with a friend and already they quoted us average $520 psf! there were some units selling for below $500psf but they were directly facing the premium flats which are very close by.

Our mass market condo greatly depend on HDB resale value. If the resale value pick up our property will be affected also. So, if you buy cheap & TOP2010, provided that the outlook of the economy is good, you're buying low selling high for anyone who is upgrading to a condo. Of course nobody can predict what will happen when 2010 comes but I guess the odds is very high.Originally Posted by Ms Ang
I think the price for those early release, still remains, if not up by a marginal %. For those new units, which were released after CNY, I think the price went up.
Potentially, with IR commence in 2010, Singapore economy will surge, our governemnt will in all aspect, step in to support...its a win-win to all.Originally Posted by KT
Lets all hope for the best and be positive about it!

Does anyone know what's the length of the lap pool in The Quartz? Is it 40M or 50M ? I noted that the entrance to the Units are not ideal, ie. main door is side by side the immediate neighbour. Is this bad design or common in many condos?The new HDB premium flat in The Quartz vicinity doesn't have such design flaws.
The Pool is 42m.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Main door side by side...think its common..Others I went to also same
The Quartz is considered good, as there's 2 lifts for 4unit per floor.
Many is usually 6units per floor
NOT sure of those new premium flat in The Quartz...Originally Posted by Unregistered
But I know flats in Punggol area also have such side by side design..
You cant have everything best in a condo...not easy to deisgn..
Err..What's wrong with such design?? Too near??

Not sure leh, guess its the thickness of the concrete wall...but I think its pretty ok, cos as you have said, our main door is indented. I think its about 50cm. I think we can also install our own gate if we want, but the design I'm not sure if its standardise? Some condos required that, so that we won't 'spoilt' the design, in the sense look inconsistent.Originally Posted by KT
BTW, anyone got the estimate measurement of the floor areas of the rooms?
Anyone knows what is the estimated size of living room for 3 bedrooms? the smallest unit?
Anyone got a unit in Blk 57 unit 14?
It's the same design as the show flat....very chio and clean-cut deco.
No regrets for buying this unit.
How big is the floor area 110?? When did you purchase? How much u paid?Originally Posted by Des
