Went for lunch at Eastpoint today and thought of walking to DBR.


Start from pedestrian crossing ( near 7-11) @ Simei MRT , it was a less than 4 minutes slow walk...

Modena 0.5min
Tropica spring 2 min
DBR 4 min

[Rysk]

So during morning rush hour 7am+ take how long to reach city?
And need to pay how much at PIE or ECP gantry?

Managed to finish reading the 52 pages. Many thanks to all who have contributed to the thread with their insights. I am intending to get one unit for stay (couple) and have shortlisted Dbr or tropical spring.

I shortlisted DBR and ts because of its distance to MRT and amenities around.
However because i havent been to the showroom, i am not able to find out how the interior looks like. Would appreciate if someone can direct me to anywhere with photos taken at the showroom.

Is there also any agent or specialist to recommend for dbr or ts?

Oh yes, if use PIE & enter to CTE towards city.. how much again for CTE gantry during morning rush hour 7+??

I think everyone's now paranoid with who tanumy really is. I would like to find out too...

[proud owner]

i think Tamumy was from Parry Avenue Boys' School ...



why ?





cos the school's motto is : Perseverance Brings Success

[cashrich]

All quiet... you can comb the threads for his real life name and number...

Silly tanumy.. the more you post, the clearer it becomes and staying silent wont help.

[TS]

go with tropical spring instead.

I agree! Of course some may say I am prejudiced seeing my handle ha ha. I was comparing DB with TS too, and TS was my choice. DB is still a nice place no doubt.

[beemer75]

surely this wld not affect ur decision to buy DB?
I stay near double bay (abt 5 mins drive away).
If u leave by 710 am and use ECP to go city, u probably cld make it w/o paying erp at the fort rd gantry (which starts at 730). CBD gantries start at 8 am.

Of cos depends on road condition and how fast u drive. I drive bt 90-100 km/h on ECP where traffic condition allows.

Oh yes, if use PIE & enter to CTE towards city.. how much again for CTE gantry during morning rush hour 7+??

[tanumy]

still DBR is much undervalue. buy.................

yes we did received offers too. offer was 860-880psf.

i dun think i will sell even if it's 1000psf. you cant get a cheaper place that faces the pool and next to mrt.

definitely when the new project launch, it will hit pass 1000psf mark.

[devilplate]

wow...1kpsf i sure sell one

[novel]

Wow you very the steady... read all 52 pages!

no lah, if he bought the place he will be keen to know all about DBR even if 100 pages. So far he is not as irritating as tanumy

Really? 860-880 psf? Please pm me the agent's contact.

I will definitely sell if it is 1000 psf. Then I can go buy another new one.

[tanumy]

that is why i say it is great place to invest.
