Official November 2018 BTO

[muzakkir]

No. You can only choose on. If you going for bto and then apply for sbf, they will take sbf.

For Nov - I can only choose BTO or SBF?
Can I send in application for both?

 

[Heesheer]

Interested in Tengah BTO! anyone else?

Interested in Tengah BTO! anyone else?

Me! But looking for Garden or Park district..

 

[Sainté]

yishun like every bto also have

Yes, I noticed that too. Not say the demand there is great to justify so many flats. Shudders to think about the transport there when it is all occupied.

But well, Yishun Ave 8 is coming up. Not sure if it makes any diff.

 

[Sainté]

5 projects launching! Will be interesting to see the response to Tengah and if I didn't remember wrongly, Sengkang and Yishun are the pioneer batch with shorter waiting times?

Finally HDB release the Sembawang project. FYI it’s already building. I was wondering what’s the project all about since there is no name or info. Another HDB project then.

I suppose it’s one of the BTO HDB promised with the “shorter waiting time”

The Sembawang BTO is also at a good location, there is landed housing, v quiet neighborhood. I always go nearby Sembawang CC there to play badminton. Short bus ride to Sembawang Shopping Centre as well as Sun Plaza and Sembawang MRT. Got the new Canberra MRT under construction too !

To be enveloped by two schools, most likely primary and secondary just next to the site...

Canberra estate is getting crowded, and it is not even 50% occupied yet with EastDelta and EastCreek still under construction.

3-4 bus stops to SBW or the future Canberra Mrt, with only one overwhelmed bus service in the area.

But it’s cheap, in fact the cheapest, so there’s a plus there.

Guys what if I'm undecided between the current Aug BTO of Yishun Glen and the Nov sembawang one? Can I apply for Yisbun first, then see get what ballot number, if not so good, try sembawang in Nov? Will still be categorized as first time buyer right? Thanks.

Same here, aiming for plantation as I can't wait any longer. In addition to str8 road to CCK and BP where me & my gf stays. Some more near MRT.

But one qns is, why that small area has so many proposed church n petrol stations?

 

[footi3]

Both Garden and Park would be much closer to town centre.. also worry that plantation being the first development for the area, you will definitely experience lack of amenities for quite so time.. but i may end up considering plantation since no idea when the other phases will launch

Yes there will be a straight road and future bus services so it’s pretty good location wise. The proposed churchs, temples and petrol stations are stated there so that people can’t complain in the future when they build those there. Most people don’t like to live near places of worship, columbarium and petro kiosks. End of the day only 1 or 2 will be built when they decide which is the most suitable

Usually for SBF the units offered is how many years ago BTO?
I saw the thread for SBF in May, seems like still have people not called up for selection..

 

[mantou27]

No. You can only choose on. If you going for bto and then apply for sbf, they will take sbf.

tough choice to make...

I am wondering if the sembawang is walking to canberra mrt anot. haha

 

[Sainté]

I am wondering if the sembawang is walking to canberra mrt anot. haha

Still possible to walk, I would say around 20 mins?

It’s 3 bus stops away from the future Canberra MRT if you are taking 883.

I read somewhere 883 bus frequency is bad.
