FLAMINGO VALLEY, FH

[yowetan]

I am going down to see it again ...
Also going to SH and some others.
Must be open minded to good deals eventhough my chequebook is closed.

Please do update the status when you are there? Thanks.

Yes, the bull run is back now. For how long? I think it won't last very long if you look at the basis for the surge. I will confirm again when I visit the showrooms in the next few months and look at other indicators.

Bull is back? I think Bull has come and almost gone. Bull is tired and running out of steam.

Buying for own stay is one thing. Buying for renting out is a different matter. Perhaps better to wait till 2015 when all the new launches have TOP'd, and we can get a clearer picture of the rental demand/supply in Singapore.

FV is more a development that people buy for own stay, so maybe that explains the sudden 'chionging' here?

[Sleepyhead]

I understand the units at #xx-81 is pretty good. But you must know that it is situated near the drain and tennis court. Smell and noise? Anyway, have you looked at the units at #xx-61. What do you think of them?

Covered drain surrounds almost the entire development.

Covered drain can be smelly meh? I actually haven't seen any smelly drains in Singapore!

Agree that tennis court can be noisy.

It is a small bull run. Confirm have bcoz even resales n subsales have picked up. The monthly sales from Jan to Mar, plus my visits to showrooms led me to e conclusion. Pp chiong FV bcoz recent 99LH exceeds its psf easily, n this is FH with v large land. Fear factor is at work.

Approx 135 units left. Showrooms seems quiet, but maybe because I went on a weekday.

Agent tells me that the developer will be removing the stamp duty rebate soon. Not sure if that's another sales tactic?

Among 135 units, how many belongs to the exclusive units that face the mature garden?

[radha08]

funny... FV has been selling for so long... why suddenly everyone start to chiong for it.

SENTIMENT..thats what its all about u chiong to buy i see i chiong...somebody see me they also chiong..so thats what its all about...

[radha08]

#81 is further than #37 from tennis courts but #37 is on upper stack so starts at level 5 above tennis courts whereas #81 is same level as the court.

#61 & #67 are not bad.

#28 & #39 also not bad.

i was offered 01-81 after 01-61 sold and i found 01-67 a bit X...BUT NO way i going to get a unit facing pool/tennis court/playground/bbq pit ANYTHING where people gather...from my PERSONAL experience after living in a PC on the ground floor that kind of FACING SUCKZ BIG TIME>..

anyway i always believe if its yours its yours...so i will just move on who knows maybe the buyer of 01-61 might sell his unit in 4 years time...

[radha08]

A LOT i bet...actually if u go into the showroom there is A BIG board with all the units and those that are SOLD got a marking any bro going can u snap a PHOTO of that board and upload...

Why face pool ground floor sucks? People passing by keep playing with your doggy and feed it rubbish when you not looking is it?

Surprisingly not that many. Maybe 10-15 units left in block 468. Even then, not all of them face the garden.... all the dual-key units face block 470. The remaining stacks there are all the small-3 bedders. If you are looking for mid-size, they are not in this block.

[radha08]

Oh by the way for the record i been to so many show flat but FV is the only one that i never throw away the BIG GREEN brochure BOOK that shows all the layout and info......the other condos one all in DUSTBIN...

no such thing as cheap and good la. if good then the price also very good. i guess since you like the area, there isn't much choice for freehold.

1. FV
2. park east
3. Fernwood
4. Ocean Park? a little further.
5. Finland Gdns
6. Eastern Lagoon? a little further also.
7. crescendo
8.hacienda
8. elliot

thats it.. with the exception of elliot, the rest all more than 15years old. and ocean park, hacienda and eastern lagoon lagi older.

How abt East Coast Residence? Actually there are a lot of freehold projects better than this project. Why buy one next to cemetry and no MRT? Walk up the slope from main east coast road oso tiring...

Not too late.. neighbours are waking up
