    I will leave it to Solsys to update on Northoaks' figures
    7 units sold for Northoaks in Jul 2012.

    Highest psf logged was $802psf for 1216sqft unit or $980k in Apr 2012.

    Average PSF is hovering around $630psf to $690psf for the usual 3 bedder.

    This unit must have very good feng sui, view or whatever for the buyer to pay over $100 psf more than the average selling price

    Would love to know why it is so special

    $980k for a 3+1 ground floor unit transcated based on agent mailer.

    $1 million barrier to be broken soon?

    Bro, I see there are 1600sqft and 1430sqft..
    if with 980K,
    1600sqft = abt 612.5 PSF
    1430sqft = 685 PSF

    Do you think it is worth to buy?

    Ground floor units psf usually lower than the rest because of the patio/PES area.

    Although ground floor unit with patio/PES is not everyone's cup of tea but there are some people who like and pay $$$ for it at the psf price of a unit without PES.

    And that will be jackpot to the seller...... Worthy or not to invest depends whether you can find a "good" buyer for it eventually when u sell it.

    Yes, super-sized pool.

    Carpark is directly beneath every condo unit, no need to walk to MSCP or any other surface carpark.

    This also explains why I bought a unit at 8CY with the carpark directly beneath me, hehehehe..... no need to walk.....

    Very nice to hear good comments from someone with no vested interest.

    the agent didn't tell me about blocks with basement carpark #%@#$

    If you are worried about the construction of NSE with noise and dust, you can pick the blocks away from Gambas Avenue.

    Anything midpoint of Northoaks towards Woodsvale should be minimally affected.

    If you are worried about driving on the road due to road diversion.... the usual route from Northoaks to city, eastern or western part of Singapore has always been via Woodlands Ave 7 then Ave 6 then Ave 12 up to SLE....

    We won't pass the NSE building area unless you are travelling through Gambas, then Sembawang Rd and southwards via city.

    NSE construction would only commence in Year 2013 i think and completed by 2018, followed by Thomson Line........

    All in all, not much of an issue.....

    Propertyguru sellers asking for $900k and above for the usual 3+1 units....

    I'm expecting a rise to $750psf in the next 6 mths by Mar, Apr 2013 from the higher end of $6xxpsf now.

    That would be around 7-8% increase in psf in 6 months. Got so kiah lan boh? So good to f..., no need to "chuah boar liao" (hokkein) But I certainly would not mind if it does happens

    S$750psf will the the record high, but average should easily be in the early $7xxpsf range for next 6 mths.

    If the newspaper which says Woodlands will increase by 30% with the regional hub and MRT hub, that means..... S$822psf x 1238sf = S$1million ++.....

    which is highly plausible in the years ahead to Yr 2018.

    A 1227 sq ft unit at Woodsvale transacted at $716 psf in October!

    This is higher than Northoaks' record of $715 psf for a 1216 sq ft unit in August

    Oops. $715 psf not Northoaks' record. The highest attained was $806 psf for a 1216 sq ft unit in April

    What I understand from resident agent mailer is a 1248sqft unit transacted at $728psf.

    If you look at propertyguru, asking is above $700psf already.

    $750psf being the norm will come sooner than expected.

    One unit transacted at $958,000 for 1292sqft unit, i.e. $741psf

    Looking at $800psf 3-6 mths down the road.

    By 2014, should be at least S$850psf.

    This place is lively and surprisingly well maintained. Also have many facilities. Visited a friends BBQ party over the weekend and I heard it is due for painting next year.... Despite price rise...at $7xx psf its still the most affordable and decent sized 3 bedder in whole of sg right now. Easily worth $800psf.

    Only problem is the impending road noise from highway being built...heard its just beside condo. Units not facing that should be fine though.

    New condo management appointed two weeks ago.

    Resident Committee Chairman is an uncle who loves the estate and keeps improving it.

    Units are spacious, pick those with rectangulish layouts.

    Thanks for your reply solsys. Have been busy recently so didn't have chance to check this forum. I visited the place twice. Very nice place with huge pools. Still thinking to get my unit there.
