Condo beware.

Some maintenance fees go up alot due to maintenance of water features like swimming pool or rooftop or over the carpark. Leaking cost alot of $$.

Some condo after 10yrs the mthly maintenance is $500+

If i c listing alot sell, meaning smthng wrong.

Buy with care.

This example doesn’t sound very realistic. Given same area same size, usually condo is much more expensive than HDB…..:eek:

probably comparing $700k HDB vs $1.2m condo…..:eek:

Obviously choose the HDB, the condo sure have issue else the price difference will not be so little given all other variables are the same

A person sell you a rolex with the price $100 more than a casio, u dare to buy?

Hdb can get vouchers
Condo has to pay expensive monthly fee

But you can make use of the gym, swimming and other facilities in the Condo n it also come with free parking if you're driving.
