Anyone here staying in 2 room BTO?

[3G SAINT]

That 3x SBF Yishun estates are nearer to Khatib MRT than Yishun MRT. However location is not that good. Have to take feeder bus or cycle to take the train.

If not in a hurry and not fussy Yishun has the best chance for singles as many units available in this sales exercise. Lock in at present attractive price. Usually by 2028 can collect key already.

After you are able to ballot successfully for your first BTO flat. Work very hard to save up and buy a resale property at an ideal location of your choice after MOP. That is if you are unsatisfied with your neighbourhood.

Who knows maybe by that time another watershed GE happens. Then PAPaya may allow singles two chances to purchase BTO flats up to 3-Room. Hahaha.

I ask my sibling apply woodland but I stayed yishun location not bad liao,the sbf even worse than mine

The location for Yishun SBF really cui.

The Woodlands BTO near causeway although not near Marsiling MRT station but easy to offload to jiuhu kia PRs once MOP.

In 2014 I gave tips for Canberra before Canberra MRT station is officially announced some people laughed at me. LOL!

Those who missed the Canberra boat better act fast for Keat Hong BTOs or resale flats. I gave tips for Bricklands MRT station very long ago. Just a few stops away to Jurong East for all the major amenities.

If stay western part it is best to be as close to Jurong East (western hub) as possible. If the HSR deal is revived it will be a big plus. Jiuhu kias with EPs will congregate there.

from my understanding, 2rm bto, singles can only buy once

i.e. buy 2rm bto, after 5 years, let's say u sell the flat, u are not eligible to buy another new 2rm bto

Thought 2r BTO can only ballot for once?

 

[1982-1994]

In 2013 lagi cheap. LOL!

My mum bought her 4r BTO in 2003 at $162k and the history goes on.....

In which thread ah?

 

[flowerpalms]

Nvm lah 10$ take it as donation. If cannot wait, just be decisive buy resale. U buy something u dun like, next 5 yrs chiu miserable while waiting for it to build.

Which is why I feel bto for me makes no sense to take. Why ballot for something that not my preferred location, then still wait for years to build?

I understand that there is Jurong east in the next June 2024 launch , then there's more waiting

@1982-1994
Do you have any comment for me?

 

[flowerpalms]

I tried more than 10 times...the more you want get,the less chance will be imo

Now if you dun get ballot, there are more chances alrdy

Hmm if I were you, I'd have tried sbf too, if cannot then try for June BTO

If kena, just wait lor, then rent it out upon MOP and start to 躺平 liao

Otherwise just spend $200k more (means bank loan) on a 2r resale flat nearest to my parents, rent it out to pay for the loan ,the rest of the rental after deducting loan repayment is passive income already

A gentle reminder that your 5 years patience of BTO wait saves you $200k of savings
$200,000/($2k*12mths)=8 years of expenses

@flowerpalms

So you would rather spend $200k more on a resale? That's like paying $40k to save a year of wait

But if you can wait, say you can shift in by 2028, then you can rent it out by 2033 ,say at $3k
$150k/$36k = 4++ years for your tenant to help you pay off the flat

Ok lah I know you value privacy ,but $200k woh
