Hey! Fellow neighbour to be most prob haha! Prob same appt date too! Mine is 41. Maybe we'll see each other at HDB! So far you're the only 40ish queue no for AMK that I see on this thread. Just logged on using his SingPass acct but no details so prob they send in batches of 30?

V informative thread here, thanks to all for sharing. First time buyer so every bit of info shared is very helpful. Requested to join the Teck Ghee Vista fb grp but have to wait for admin to accept. -_-" yikes.

Currently feeling v worried abt all the costs, seeing how ex the AMK units are. Plus we were aiming for high floors (of coz right everyone is) but with the price...scary crap! :s Wondering if we should have gone for a 4rm instead. Sigh.

Anw, I read somewhere abt pple debating whether to opt for the fittings provided by HDB and saw this acronym, OCS or OSC, can't rmb. Can anyone explain what it stands for? Many thanks!

i thought the BTO at ave 10 is teck ghee parkview ....teck ghee vista are all sers relocated from ave 1

Not true, 40%-50% are relocated resident from ave 1. The the others are people like us who ballot from HDB. TGV was release during sales of balance flats.....

Haha, you're right!! OMG feel like a toot!! Ok, thanks to misspotato I joined the right fb grp yay. Thank you!

suzuka, any units in mind alr? You're going for a 3rm right?

 

[suzuka88]

my ideal blk is 591a , 33 facing south ...now is to see the price to make decision which floor to go..

 

[Snap11]

Max is 344000, per level down should be 1k different. Those July bto, per level also 1k different.

Looks like appointment dates are not out for Woodlands applicants?

 

[supremeD]

I am queue 24X for woodlands 5rm... not sure whether i got invitation date bo...

 

[mike_sp]

For amk, cheng san would be more popular choice compare to teck ghee?
In the queue for amk 3rm.

 

[greenpok]

Max is 344000, per level down should be 1k different. Those July bto, per level also 1k different.

Sigh, the 5rm prices are depressing.

Also, any idea which blk is closest to the temple? That's at the TGPV site right, not CSC?

Queue 19 neighbour here, haha

Q number 69, 4 room, neighbour here!

 

[greenpok]

If we opt for OCS, since the price is factor in with flat price, means for hdb loan we also paying interest for OCS right?

FOUND IT! Haha. Can any kind soul explain what this means? Thanks!

 

[supremeD]

FOUND IT! Haha. Can any kind soul explain what this means? Thanks!

I think should be the case. since it is factor into the total costing...

Edited:
Seems to be created by a person with dubious intentions (he created many groups for other btos), however there are no other groups and I am not active on facebook else can create one for us neighbours to discuss

Hmm, but he does have many photos of the surrounding areas tho. Wonder if they're accurate.

Then again, there really isn't a way to verify who really will be queuing to get a flat in these estates right? So there will definitely be some clowns trying to be funny and just joining for fun?

So far the TGPV one is rather quiet tho, less than 20 members currently only I think.

Hmm ok, but what does OCS stand for in the first place? Is it the doors and bathroom fittings?

 

[greyspots]

for tenteram peak, do you all think its possible to walk to boon keng mrt station? seemed like its about 1km away, walk 15-20 mins?
