think we gonna go put down interest for the 721sqft units.

see how the price is on booking day. if exceed budget, then bo bian.

Guessing the 721sqf units would start around 2mil? But I thought agents have priority to choose units the day before?

Im guessing it should be starting around 1.8mil. The finishing is less luxurious than midtown bay and the land price is also cheaper at 15xx psf. There are 2 bedroom leftover units at midtown bay and price of MM should be at a lower pricepoint to avoid cannabalization between these two projects

Just curious , if agents buy for themselves, do they get to pocket the commission given by the developer?

You are so confident capital appreciation profit is there?

no la. i got mention before. my personal opinion for this project is more for own stay purposes. if you are prioritizing capital appreciation, go for rcr projects. lower entry point and more potential for future growth. my thoughts la.

im guessing starting from 1.8m. based on the indicative of 1.4xm for 2br.

this is my first time going in as an agent buyer. i was not an agent yet when we bought north park residences.

what i know so far for this project is i either choose the priority queue and forgo any comm payable or opt for comm but join the public balloting queue.

so of course going for the latter. :s13:

but if per floor jump is too kua zhang, might skip also.

Went to check out the preview and while the location is nice for own stay, the 1 bedders start at 409 sqft for $1.1m.

I have serious reservations as I'm buying for own stay, not sure if I can live in a space like that for very long. But the 2 bedders if I go for mid-floor likely out of budget. So being able to sell later and recoup costs if I need to move is important.

The agents are claiming even if I buy a 1 bedder people will be fine with paying $1.4m or $1.5m for it 3 years down the road.

Wondering if there really is that kind of capital appreciation potential for this project or it's just sales talk?

ThTs rather bold TBH.

Cross reference to DUO with 343 units of studio & 1bedders:
> Quick check on prop guru,57 out of 102 sales listings are the Studios & 1 bedders. Asking price from $1.118m.

And how does these Studios/1 bedders fair in the resale market?
> So far only 19 units of 1 bedder/Studio has entered resale market since TOP.

In the locality, THE M, MIDTOWN BAY & MIDTOWN MODERN will add in to the supply of 1 bedders.

3 years from now, will future buyers really pay $1.4/1.5m for a 1 bedder with no balcony?

Is there truly a demand for 1 bedders in Bugis when it comes to resale in the first place?
Hmmmmm
Hence $1.4-1.5m is rather bold..
