hmm, the fencing dun look too bad...this type of fencing gave me the feeling of openness...but they must maintain the plant if not![]()
I think the fencing is ok for me, very friendly feeling, not enclosed like wall covering up the whole condo. Thanks LA for the invitation. Happy Lunar New Year to everyone in TQ. Hope to see you guy soon...Originally Posted by vic
Hi guys,
Anyone has any plans to start an online portal for TQ owners?
Time will tell whether TQ is worth the 250psf premium it has over Rivervale. Rivervale will be 10 years old in 3 years time and will be free from the rules, so it is a good investment in these times. If you think "private" condo command higher price, just look at the prices of Regentville, Hougang Green and Rivervale Crest...Originally Posted by New observer
I really cannot hold it for not revealing this.
The price shown in caveat is before discount. Don't be a fool to think that TQ can still be commanding 700+psf at this period.![]()
In fact, more discount is coming!
So after 12% discount is about $670psf. Anyone know whether got more discount coming? $550psf I will seriously consider. Buy already can sleep well...Originally Posted by isaaclim
Don't understand what you mean by price discounted more from caveat. Isn't a caveat the actual transacted price?Originally Posted by isaaclim
Cash back from developer in terms of renovation cost return or some form of discount gimmicks. Developers had to do this during SARS and they are starting this dirty trick again.Originally Posted by ahlahdin
This is to maintain nice looking caveats, as not to destroy the value of the remaining units.
Anyone got idea of why contractor building a tent on the tennis court?

Hi all,
When developer apply for TOP and they are complied with then the application for the TOP may be issued within 7 working days. However, we are adviced to check directly with our developer on this matter.
The building regulations are mainly to ensure structural safety with the appropriate qualified persons responsible to supervise the design and construction of these buildings.
Some developers may submit their project for the Quality Mark Scheme to ensure a high standard of quality for their building. However this is a voluntary scheme and is not mandatory.
So any news on the TOP date?![]()
Its 2nd quarter this year.
but nobody knows the date.
however the signage states 17th march completion of construction.
But i doubt China Construction can finish in time.
How????

Lights at staircase are on.. TOP should be around the corner. Workers are also working late to rush the works.
Hopefully top should be faster.
