I though a project facing school and expressway is bad fengshui!Moreover the selling price is on the high side for this kind of facing..Originally Posted by NoodyGirl

- small quantum value so PSF highest
- Buyer 99% for investment / rental so who cares about facing
Just wondering if this's development is just beside CTE, isn't is just the mirror of mera springs which is on the other opposite of CTE.
And that development TOP at 700-800 psf in april 09 and only now hit max of 1000 psf now. But of course mera springs is D8 tho they are 100 - 200m apart.
its a silly sillypore stigma. CTE divides D8 vs D11 thus prices significantly higher. Singapore river divides D9 vs D3, thus prices significantly higher. PIE divides D21 on "real bukit timah road" vs D21 on upper bukit timah road, thus, prices significantly higher and the list goes on.

It all depends on how the property faces, how far apart, how high is the property vs the expressway and their orientations etc. If Fengshui is so simple then everybody can also be Fengshui Masters liao!

I can't really judge if these kinds of development would attract more buyers or increase the supply ahead of demand such that the prices will rise or moderate these coming years.
One thing is for sure, the retail and F&B outlets in or around Novena will benefit from these massive development.
Even if it is close to CTE, having FEO developing Adria is a good thing since FEO tends to develop good projects and they have much holding power even if very few units sell.
I have not seen the plans but I suspect the CTE facing will be walled-off since it also faces the Istana. Under the ISD the designer may as well put up a wall.
newton flyover divides D11 vs D9 of which D9 price is not just significantly higher, but almost DOUBLE.Originally Posted by bargain hunter
No lah, not double but much more expensive;-)Originally Posted by ahlahdin
So which is side of the Newton flyover is a better buy?
on the surface, i think if gloucester mansion (D11 FH and CDL, more than 5 years old) is $1,100 psf to $1,200 psf compared to Vida (D9 FH and Far East, brand new) which is above $2,000 psf, of course gloucester mansion appears to have more upside. They are how many metres apart only?Originally Posted by andy
of course, i am only talking about on the surface, i haven't analyzed them fully, for example traffic conditions, accessibility, etc and there may be many things that we don't know about nor are aware of.
Don't think there is much room to grow for Gloucester mansion unless Newton 18, Newton Euro Asia and Amaryllis Ville also increase to $1600psfOriginally Posted by ahlahdin
A much fairer comparison is Newton 1 @ around $1600psf vs Vida @$2Kpsf since they are both around the same age. Hence I don't think it is 2 times the value but there is certainly a jump.
can't really compare also, VIDA consists of small 1 and 2 bedders while the smallest unit is a 2 bedder at Newton One is 1216 sq ft and there are many big 3 and 4 bedders. Interesting thing to note is the 2 bedders at VIDA while significantly higher in psf is actually lower in absolute quantum vs Newton One's 2 bedders.
Year to date,
Most expensive caveat for VIDA: #16-08 2275psf 861 sq ft $1.958m.
Most expensive caveat for Newton One (2 bedder): #10-04 1676psf 1216sq ft $2.038m.
So can't really compare between these 2 either.

Disclaimer: This is not a recommendation on this project.
FEO has started to offer 1% discount.
and why are they doing so after selling a lone single unit (probably a studio) at a nëw hïgh of $2,020psfin june?
not sure if this is an error since previous months' peak prices even for studio was only 1768psf for #18.

FEO nvr ganchiong...1% discount more like a gimmick to con the weak.
i dun remember they ever slash prices during recession...perhaps some room for nego for the leftover units at Icon in 2009
more like up 5% and give 1% discount. hahaha
u will be SHOCKED if u noe how much FH land FEO own and havent launch!
that's true. since mar, they only sold 4 units in april, scored a big fat zero in may so maybe june do one kelong 2,020psf and then give 1% discount to attract attention?

the last plot of land beside WFG is solely owned by FEO! tats y i am not letting go WFW yet if u noe wat i mean
This place will be really hot not just the prices but traffic when every projects TOP given the narrow roads. It is already quite bad with the existing development.
hehe HOT HOT....so buy woodlands or pasir ris...less congested!Originally Posted by DC33_2008
i wud love to see pasir ris prices to be on par with bedok reservoir
yeah, narrow one way street to serve all the developments. headache.

That one FH right? maybe sold as LH at record prices also... but why they want to maintain current price, hold back remaining units to sell at a higher price. Bigger profit to look forward to or that there are no buyers now...?Originally Posted by devilplate
