I sold my metropolitan because of the track noise. High floor somemore > 30. And don't tell me noise travel up. It is crap. I have tried going floor to floor. At 10 floor, you can go crazy. The noise get softer as you go higher but at 30+, it is still driving me nuts. I didn't know that when I bought it from developer. So immediately, I sold it after TOP because it is impossible to stay one. Anyway, at a hefty profit
But I dump into a Tiong Bahru Condo because the tracks are underground. From that TOP day onwards, I know it is impossible to stay near the MRT track. If facing MRT, then I must say you have good tolerance. It is just my experience of buying a condo beside the track. If you think you can take it, go ahead. But I can tell you, my feeling at that point of time is like "I buy condo to enjoy but yet it is noisy like shit". Especially in sat/sun afternoon, the weather is hot and you will feel super pek cek one. Luckily I got 40% gain. Then you can say got air-con but you can on how many hours a day? I rather spend my money on something that I can enjoy. At least some fresh air. Got facilities also no point if noisy until siao. Then again, you might have your own liking but IMO, DBR is crap.
