however, in a BULL run like what we have seen in the last 4-5 yrs, LH are almost the same price as FH , at around the same location, in most areas..
so you are not buying any cheaper ...
30 yrs down the road, developers will need to pay up alot to top up the lease, back to 99yr .. and if costs remains high, enbloc will be very difficult, compared to FH..where developers need not top up lease..
i am not saying your theory doesnt work ..but it depends on which part of the market trend we are in, to decide between LH and FH
in general, most people still prefer FH ...
