2 years later you will look back and ask yourself: "why didn't I buy more when Telok Kurau price was at 1K psf???"Originally Posted by silver023

100% agree with you!Originally Posted by Wolverine23
Hi guys,
Please correct me if I am wrong but I think 1k psf has already been breached in TK ? In another thread, I mentioned this specific project that I was eyeing, one@pulasan and I think a few studios there have hit above 1.1 k psf. Its on the other side of still road so is this still considered TK? The soon to launch Cubik is asking 1400 psf for studios?
I think the challenge is to go above 1k psf for the bigger units in TK.
Ever try driving into the TK Lorongs at the 6-730pm time frame? Its crazy. I wont do it. Orginaly considering there to live. but after experiencing the traffic.. not for me.
I drive that way every evening, no issues, where you coming from and going?Originally Posted by minority
yes, you are right. Value will eventually be unlocked.Originally Posted by bullman

Thats why there is this term called "Sour Grapes". There are two intentions of these people:Originally Posted by Jazzer
1) They are vested elsewhere and see that TK is getting popular, so try to cast exagerrated negative remarks to downplay it.
2) They themselves are trying to buy a unit in TK, and bec of the high prices now, they are native enough to think their comments will eventually drive prices down abit to make it more affordable for them.
Take their words as a pinch of salt. Maybe picked up from the East Coast Beach sea water nearby.
Property prices in Singapore is on an upward trend on a long term basis. Just 2 years ago, TK's psf was about 700 to 8000 psf, today, it is closed to 1k psf... sooner or later, the 1k would be breached. It is a matter of time, and not whether it would happen....Originally Posted by bullman
Maybe they don't know all the short cuts and bypass routes Still Road (the most obvious route) is a .Originally Posted by Jazzer
Most TK residents would (should) use TK Road to traverse the various Lorongs, simple as ABC, or should I say, GHJ.
Of course TK is not perfect, but tell me which location is perfect? I would have liked to buy The Seaview too, if I did not miss the boat, but if I did, I would have to compromise accessibility to the MRT, and much HIGHER price, also that area is not exactly low density area too, with so many high rise developments packed so close, so something has to give.Originally Posted by Blue
agree with you bro. much talk over here is based on hindsight. to give an example, when the sea view, OA or esta was first launched at $700-800psf, most naysayers were saying price is simply out of the world. with the same quantum, one could have easily bought a landed property in TK then. now it's considered relatively cheap as all the new launches are priced at least $1200psf or more.Originally Posted by xebay11
no location's 'perfect' simply because different market segments have varying needs. one man's meat is another's poison to put it plainly. having said so, thankfully the sea view is not located within amber road where it's utterly cluttered. it will only be flanked by the sound in a couple of years time, unlike in amber road where a development is likely to be surrounded with high rise towers.
I of course concur.Originally Posted by xebay11
But my point is that TK's imperfectness is the point of much ridicule by many people where they placed much emphasis on and wherein these same people choose to overlook the imperfectness of other estates.
went to check out the verte, they are building 2nd floor now! Yippie
maybe end of the year it could TOP?
I walk past verte almost every day on my way to work, as I take mrt from kembangan. They are building every day even on Sundays. Ambrosia even faster, can see them installed window panels oredi.Originally Posted by kellogs
u walk to kembangan mrt everyday from TK? isnt it really tiring?Originally Posted by donchew76
I am planning to take MRT to work once I have moved into the verte ... it is so convenient as MRT is just 7/8mins away ... just leave the car at homeOriginally Posted by donchew76
verte nice project...probably the best project in TK...PREMIUM...but i rem the launch price was vy high...ard 1kpsf rite...tat time i can see but dare not touch
okok, i think for you is ok. if lor m or n will be hard to walk to kembangan...Originally Posted by kellogs
Actually TK is a long stretch. Those at Lorong G, H along the park connector side, its quite near to the mrt station. Only about 400+ metres.
And those at Lor M & N will have to walk to the ERL station...also 400mOriginally Posted by Autonomy
but dont know where this ERL station will be built. if the station is at Marine Terrace areas, then a bit far from TK leh. I hope that wont be the new TK station.
main station at marine terrace with opening at NAFAOriginally Posted by calvintan
wah, ah lim told u his plans where the stations will be located?Originally Posted by Wolverine23
Yeah it was launched around that price ... the last transaction was on the townhouse and it was done around 613psf and i think that is a steal.Originally Posted by devilplate
What i like about it because it is fairly near to MRT station, next to Park connector (I jog 5 times/week) and it has only 3 and 4 bedrooms unit so not really a MM project like most perceived on TK boutique apartment.
I hope TK will be a good growing up environment for my kids (4 and 2 years old)
The other day passed by Telok Kurau and saw a very nice landed house (not sure if it's considered Semi-D or Corner Terrace), but the land is pretty big. Heard it belongs to the boss of King's safety boots dealer or something..
Inside the house, they have a really huge TV like those selling for $100K in electrical stores and they have 4 cars! 1 BMW 7 series, 1 BMW 3 series and 2 Lambos!!!
