Hi, an agent is offering a 8th floor unit in stack 12 for 1000PSF. I am buying for stay but will dispose it if there is a quick upside.
1. Any comments on this price? Will I be able to make money if I need to sell this in the short term?
2. How much is maintenance fee at OA?
3. How much do you think I will have to pay immediately and how much when doing TOP etc. (yes, i can ask that agent, but i dont know him that well. better to ask someone first here, i thought)
Thanks
1. Any comments on this price? The offer pricing is good at current market.Originally Posted by stevej
Will I be able to make money if I need to sell this in the short term? Not likely as this is a bad stack with west sun with No view & traffic noise.
I will pay a little more to buy a better facing unit with pool view and No west sun if possible. Is hard to get best of both world with good view & good pricing.
2. How much is maintenance fee at OA? Not so sure..should be around 300+ for the 1st yr.
3. How much do you think I will have to pay immediately and how much when doing TOP etc. (yes, i can ask that agent, but i dont know him that well. better to ask someone first here, i thought)
Should be about 50% now.

Stack 12 has west sun for the common areas but most of the bedrooms will be facing south, towards the sea (though the view will be blocked by the condos on the other side of amber gardens). Good thing about this stack is that it will have unblocked views of the katong area, as well as the view of the city and possibly the sea in the distance since it is not facing any other OA blocks/other condos. Nonetheless, purchasing an unit at the eight floor is a bit too steep in my opinion, since the relatively low floor means that upside potential will be limited.
2. How much is maintenance fee at OA?
350 plus was what I heard.
3. How much do you think I will have to pay immediately and how much when doing TOP etc. (yes, i can ask that agent, but i dont know him that well. better to ask someone first here, i thought)
Heard it is approaching 75%.
Pal, you must know what you really want. Why you want stack 12?Originally Posted by justsoul
Is it cause of cheap or your budget?
If dun buy this unit do you have other choices?
Upsize, down size we never know when. What if the market turns bad? We never know, as a owner I be a bull. As a buyer I be a bear. But market we never can control.
Buying a unit is a long term investment. We sure want to make money out of it. Ask yourself, how long this unit had been in the market. Is it easy to sell? If you buy will you face the same problem when you sell?
Hello justsoul,Originally Posted by justsoul
If you ever buy property before, should know that before TOP you only pay up to max 60% before you collect you keys. Once you collect you key you need to pay 20% whcih total is 85%.
How you get 75%
Quiet thread here ???

Hi all, greetings. First, I declare I'm a newbie, pls be kind to me, ok? Thanks.
Just joined this forum few days back after chanced upon this forum directed from one of the link that I can't remember. LOL. I read this thread with great interest and was fascinated with your various valid viewpoints.
Got so many experts/gurus here, may I ask
1. Got any insider who know which month TOP is going to be? (so far gathered from newspaper, agents, internet that Q42009toQ12010) This is for better planning.
2. Saw one thread mentioning maintenance fee of 6 months to be paid in advance. True? (I think Casa Mera thread)
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I am looking at a 3-bedder type C1 at One Amber at Blk 7 stack 20 low floor. Anyone has any comment on this stack 20 in term of its facing and direction. Does it have any west sun ?
Thanks.
Heard from the developer TOP is likely to be in Mar or Apr 2010. We as owners should ask the developer for freebies for the delay from Jun 2009 !!

Yeap, I think the property price has gone too high even for investor to go in now. For those buyers who has bought or going to buy now, they will have problem selling it in future as their purchase price will be higher than the first time buyers.Originally Posted by Kenshinto80
You r wrong. If bubble burst prices of ALL AREAS will come down. Don't believe u can check transacted prices of Sail, Sentosa, Ardmore 2 for the past 2 yrs. Many speculators in D15? Do U actually have info to back or just TKSS? Some speculators yes but Not as many as Sail, MBR, the CCR areas.Originally Posted by Kenshinto80
Have u missed the boatOriginally Posted by ckt77
If u are waiting for a crash, make sure it will crash way beyond march 09 levels. Ard sti level 1400.Originally Posted by ckt77
If not it will just be a correction before setting a newer high.
Yeap u r right. I have missed the boat . This is why my personal opinion is that anyone buying property now is commiting at very high price.Originally Posted by jc
That is why people miss the boat.Originally Posted by ckt77
More than 10 years back, I can get a landed property for below a million. Now most landed properties are going for 1.5mil and up. What may sound high now may be normal in the future.
Hi all, last week I went into One Amber to view a few units which the contractors left the door open. I was very disappointed with the layout. The rooms are really small. Smaller than Seaview . Most of the units has the dining & living area separated by an air well. A 1300+ sqft unit looks cramp and small. Frankly, the layout is bad as compared to The Esta. Just sharing what I have seen with all. I will not consider One Amber due to the bad layout especially when most subsale units are asking for >$1160 psf. Not worth the $$.
Get used to the small size. More upcoming layouts will be heavily influnced by Disney's characters, especially Mickey Mouse. They will be much smaller.Originally Posted by sltc
East coast has one of the most recession defying prices. But don't forget, east coast rental sucks. For example, Esta 2+1 selling 1.1M. Rental only 3k. Pui. Can you imagine the yield? That is why East coast has a lot of home stayer and thus, the resistence. Got pros and cons.
