Well, they better build faster as the land lease started in 2007. Which is similar to waterfront waves and key.

The current price level after the discounts is still slightly higher than the initial launch price. Do note that during the vvip preview on the first 2 days, extra 2% discount was given off the list price.Originally Posted by Ilikeu
Yup, my folks cannot wait to move in!!! After they saw Minton, moving them anywhere else is unthinkable... Sigh...Originally Posted by azeoprop

With a much higher price tagOriginally Posted by august
I checked out Interlace before. Not cheap leh. At least $1250psf for the smaller units 807sqft ones during Q1 2010.Originally Posted by august
And not all interlace units have good layouts. Quite a number have odd shaped dining and/or kitchen or bedroom that are triangular shaped.
But i must say it looks amazing!Originally Posted by new2mondrian
Haha yeah! Agree.Originally Posted by price
To ask my spouse to co-share in a 1mil unit for my parents to live out their days at Interlace as opposed to a $500k plus unit at the Minton is a world of difference. Cannot bring myself to do it, though yes, interlace would have been much more ideal.there's a price to everything in life.

ahaha yes! if there're still units available here for 500k i'll grab 1!Originally Posted by new2mondrian
anyone know how many units are left? are they increasing their price?
What I understand is that they already break-even when they sold 50% of the units..
When Kheng Leong won the tender for Minton Rise condo's enbloc, analysts projected that they will make a decent profit by selling 1000 units at $750psf. The developers launched 1145 units at average of $850psf. So what do you think??? They have made a pile...Originally Posted by mc_007
Dunno how many units left though. Didn't bother to track.
Where is king kong????Originally Posted by kingkong1984
The 1300+psf for the 3 bedders and the 4 bedders are of good sizes. Very liveable.
Unfortunately all 4 bedders are sold out... subsale market is the only option.Originally Posted by kane

Take kovan residences and clover for example a 4 bedder sells for about $2m. New projects 4 bedder also sell at about $1.3-$1.4m. Then comparing the 3 bedder. Its comparables selling for about $1.4m, new one smaller 3 bedders selling 1.1m to $1.2m so the price isn't that far off.Originally Posted by graveyard
Is it reasonable to assume bay windows take up about 10% of the floor area? hmm.... maybe we should then should apply a 110% to the psf to covert the psf to an "equivalent" psf to one that does not have any bay window.Originally Posted by ysyap
Minton is ideal for self stay but not so much for investment purposes. I believe, it's one of the few new development that have space and privacy like the older ones.
I dont agree on the privacy. Surrounded by public housing plus so so so so so many units in the development. Maybe privacy in the sense that ah long will also have trouble finding your block provided can get in in the first place...Originally Posted by Worsty
Not suitable for singles and couples without kids.....the pool area and gym etc will be a madhouse!Originally Posted by mcmlxxvi
Very goodie for family man....their kids and maid enjoys more....wakakaka
Minton not so high leh. Unless u referring to Interlace. Minton 4 bedders 1,755 sq ft only about $860 psf wat. Quantum ard $1.5M for high floor units. 3 bedder ard $950 psf quantum ard $1.3 M.Originally Posted by kane
Pai seh i meant sqft rather than psf. Ha.Originally Posted by fclim
Since all 4 bedders are sold out, subsale market has full monopoly of similar sales. Sky's the limit then... Only question remains, which buyer will bite. Hmmm...Originally Posted by fclim

Update 24th Feb 2012.![]()
10% is an overstatement. Probably about 5%.Originally Posted by Ilikeu

Even if convert the psf to an "equivalent" psf of 110%, the psf is still relatively cheaper than most of the new developments.![]()
