    sometimes having a small unit has its advantage ...

    small space means less space ,
    less space will force one to BUY less of unneccessary stuff..

    so pay high psf for tiny unit indirectly = savings on useless stuff in the long run

    congrats to small unit owners ..you gonna save a lot of money in the long run ...

    he is optimising his space and i don't see anything wrong with that. if he can convert a 4xxsf unit into a 3 bedder and still have a living room, kitchen and a toilet, I don't see why not. Why do people need a huge living room or kitchen for? Jump around in it or play hopscotch? How many of us who live in big units actually utilise all the space in the house? My wife spends more time cleaning up most of the space in my apartment rather than enjoying it which i sometimes think it is a waste.

    Wait till u guys see the actual unit. Its already very clastrophobic and setting dividers simply makes its even smaller. How do u like to live within 4 old chang kee stores and knock against the wall when u walk every few steps. Its crazy

    You are so right. Your mindset changes. You start to throw away unnecessary stuff and buy only the necessary and become an expert at storing and organising things, as well as space optimisation. Live clean and simple.

    Haha. I assume _YOU_ have seen the actual unit, to speak so certainly? Creating those partition rooms are definitely for higher rental yield. Nobody said anything about own self staying in them given a choice.

    Pics of gym:




    I think rather than having 2 treadmills like most boutique developments, it is better to have one of it as multi-weight station.

    it is not illegal if rented to a single family of tenants under a 1-2 year tenancy agreement. It is illegal if the unit is treated as a dormitary, hostel or boarding house.

    Also the tenure of lease matters. Long term (minimum 1 year) or more is fine but not anything less.

    to create one extra room is good enough, if you overdo with maximising space, the entire place will looking more like a provision shop.

    Finally just got my keys on Thursday. However, there were a few problems. Most notable is that the cooker hood seems to be rusty.

    Does anyone of you have this same problem?

    You are right. FG used WD40 and manage to get the stains off. Currently starting the renovations of my place. I must say FG/Frangrace has been quite responsive to repair the defects that I pointed out. Kudos to FG - Kumar for being extremely responsive.

    Btw, met the agent of the 15th floor 3 room penthouse. He allowed me to view the penthouse (I guess he wanted to view my apartment as well to compare).

    I must say the views are fantastic. Able to see almost 270 degrees - the flyer to CTE behind.... pity I cannot afford it, owner is trying to sell for $1.3mil

    If they don't give you what was initially promised, this is serious man, not just a refund of maintenance. This is a breach of contractual terms.
