In 2023 i was looking at resale markets for a flat (2rm flexi) because i had no luck in BTO. The lowest price i came across was 320xxxk.

Now 2024 just ended, i got a chance at the recent BTO. Out of curiousity i go look at the prices of resale property now i realized the prices has gone up so much to the tune of close to 100k.

The resale market def gone crazy la.

 

[Evil_Boss]

my flat is old flat, 3r..left 50 years old.. buy 1 year liao, i see other people selling 10% more than what i bought for.

Know of someone who bought a 3r resale. Old flat left 60 years. 440k
420k + 20k top up for COV

 

[flowerpalms]

i suggst, if your mum and you confirm move in. i suggest rent out your mum flat for passive income and stay in your new home

Renting out presents another set of problem

agree with advice above, gov regulations/procedures change all the time

safest is follow the instructions in the email/letter u received

can ask a 2nd person to read the email/letter, if u worried about missing something
