D'Leedon (D10, 99 years leasehold, Capitaland)

[DC33_2008]

With the reduction of quota next year, COE will go higher when the economy is improving. Long-term properties near mrt with good transportation network will tend to gain with either capital appreciation or even rental. Expatriate may think twice owning a car that depreciates (can be easily 10k/year) than to take taxi, mrt or even buses.

possible to revisit all time high of 100k COE!?!

looks like die die cannot change car liao

This morning after my morning run at a stadium, on my way home, saw nag mo expat at bus-stop waitg for bus. Bus stop is next to hdb block.

200k corolla has become a distinct possibility.

Will not buy a car until a new corolla sells for 50k again.

Expecting 'garmen' to announce big budget surplus early next year, record coe collections, casinos tax collections, civil servants n ministers pay to go up, wonder wat's in it for citizens

Any updates on D' leedon sales? Can just walk in? M thinking of going down this wkend

[DC33_2008]

Do not worry. They will welcome you even if it is a private viewing.

[DC33_2008]

It will only be a dream. A 5 year old second-hand car in a few years time will be this price.

Next time on the road ..there will only be Mercs , BMW, Audi and those above $200k cars...

Then.. owning a car will really be the status item it used to be 20yrs back.

now cannot afford to change new ride every 2-3yrs

[hyenergix]

The batch of new car owners in 2008-2009 will likely to scrap their cars in 2013-2014 (5 years). This will create more COEs at lower price, and it will be the time to change cars.

As long as you have an existing car, it should be ok. It is the FIRST TIME buyers who will be hit. I bought my car in 2009. I can sell it today at a higher price - in short, the price of the car has appreciated after close to 2 years of use.

wah so good price u can fetch....mine barely breakeven after 1.5yrs

[Wild Falcon]

Need to get something more "rare" - then with little competition in the resale market, prices usually can hold very firm.

what do you pple think is a acceptable price psf for a 1270sf unit say 12-17th floor unit in d'Leedon. unblock view, north facing.

Take into consideration this development will be ready in 5 year. Factoring in your prediction of value of housing in 5 years time. Eg. pinnacles@Duxton 5 years ago selling 400K+++ consider expensive as $400k+++ can easily get u a condo at OCR region.

Feel free to comment on why u feel it should be priced at that region. I hope everyone can share their opinion and do not comment on why others might feel that way.

i like to heard everyone's views

that means this is a 3 bedder of 1270sf with unblocked views of bukit timah greenery costing just under $2m? i haven't been doing detailed research recently but at the back of my mind, nearby, going to TOP Duchess Residences 3 bedder 1464sf would cost more than 2.5m, 999 year leasehold though but likely no view (maybe even face to face with hwa chong hostel ). i think u need to compare with what else u can get for under $2m to decide.

Updates. 235 units sold, left 15 units for first launch. Not bad for 2 wks effort Showrrom going to close for holidays. Looks like mkt is still HOT !Next year official launch in Jan. thanks to update from my property friend.

Someone mention the traffic leading out of d'leedon to farrer will be disastrous and I did some research. There are 2 main exits from condo and can split out to 4 road leading to farrer road, holland road and bukit timah road, depends on where u r heading.
