I understand why. That’s the difference between EC and private. EC majority buy for homestay. The carpark lots are actually 1 is to 1. There are about 80+ on waiting list for 2nd carpark lot. Hahaha.

But if you only have 1 car, shouldn’t have issue parking at all. All units entitled to 1 parking lot.

I have colleague staying at blossom. he told me the parking problem is horrendous. seems like EC families tend to be multi generations and have few cars. rainforest had parking problem too I heard

There are quite a number of HDB upgraders. People who like staying in BP and want to upgrade to private don’t have too many choices. Chestervale, blossom or hillion. Between chestervale and blossom, blossom is more attractive as it’s newer. Hillion is mixed development and a lot more expensive.

Bt panjang huat ah..which part u staying bro?

In practice, there’s sufficient lots. Although first owners register their cars, some don’t park there. There’s usually balance of lots left. But now going to propose charges for 2nd carpark in the coming AGM. Currently second car owners get lots through ballot. If you have more than 2 cars, then yeah go park elsewhere 😅

Haha!!
Jurong transformation completed. Changi transformation delayed already T5 KIV for at least 2 years. Woodlands transformation delayed already the HSR completion is still in limbo. PLAB transformation after 2030 then say. PLB transformation still waiting. GSW transformation aft 2030-2035 then say, wait for the ports to move out first. Yishun and Mandai got what transformation???

My point is everywhere has a transformation.

Jurong is still ongoing

Mandai has a new zoo, confirm if someone builds a condo nearby it will become a new selling point 😂

Alot of buyers like to do double counting in their mind. When some transformations are announced, the prices are already increased by developers or resellers to take this into account.

Then the buyers come along and buy, expecting ANOTHER round of increase due to the same transformation to give them the profits.

It simply doesn't work that way. You buy when nothing is announced, not after.

Hello, don’t really agree with your point. Developers price based on breakeven price + margin (which may partially consider upside from initial transformation blueprint announcement) but buyers expect price capital appreciation based on further firming up of the blueprint and also the transformations being fully realised and people can visibly see and tangibly experience the transformation, plus any future transformations to be announced potentially. So no real double counting imo.

Hehe looks like the oversupply situation not only seen in D21, but also seen in Homeseeker forum. Suddenly with 4 active threads on forett, verdale, the linq and V@K. :s13:

You can always make your own conclusion. But what I have said is nothing controversial; for maximum profit, you have to be in before, and not after an announcement, that much is clear. I don't admit to knowing in details of the D21 transformation, but I believe some announcement was made in 2018-2019? The whole batch of new launches came after, in 2019-2020.

The whole premise of your argument is that the developers are benevolent entities who will leave behind some meat for their buyers to make some money. I choose to believe the opposite. I guess that is why you seem like you would consider Forett and I wouldn't which is perfectly fine.

Perhaps, this reflects the underlying sentiment that you don’t agree? Hahaha. Don’t need to agree. Just watch. Not only east people are rich :)

Yea I quite agree to drkcynic... similar to Affinity and Gardens, both of which have already priced in the cost of the upcoming cross island line.
