None of the above. Buy a normal 3 bed room or 4 bed room resale flat which is between $300-$500k. Why do we need to stress ourselves

True ... However for me maybe i am inbuilt. If no stress, no fighting spirit ...

For me only...

For me, the HDBs units / blocks / areas which I was interested in were around $7xx for 4rm, $8xx-$9xx for 5rm. (Example Bedok central). So in the end after flip flopping for a few months I ended up buying 2br+Study in Punggol for $9xx

You can aim for cheaper HDB and another condo subsequently This will give you a lot of fighting spirit

Wow, as a single you can afford such a big private property (3 bedrooms 12xxsqft) and car. You must be earning quite a lot to pay off such much liabilities.

You are single, you also don't need so many bedrooms. Why not invest in 2 properties, one for homestay and the other for investment purpose.

Which location did you buy? 3 bedder for that size in CCR would be $1.7-$2m. Power la you.

I'm more trapped. Wife to be earns 5x more than me and owns a small private apt. Her salary alone enough to hit the ceiling. So bto or maybe resales is out of question. And her current private also too small for a family.

So with my miser low salary, I'm forced to look at 3 br private or should I wait for when I'm 35 to buy a resale before marriage. Dilemma

If you buy resale before marriage, don't need to sell off after married meh?

Apparently no need, but eventually changes to the rules will happen.

So now I'm forced to looking for private myself. My salary also not enough for banks to lend me remaining 80% lol.
