[coolhead]

Now cannot already as price increase! Things move very fast sia.

Even a laoyah hdb also can price increase with that amount of lease available.

Really power.

Waiting for complaints that 2rm is too small. Must be cheap, good location and BIG

How is it too small ? Look at flats in HK, now that's small...

either to take inspiration or being thankful i can afford 2rm bto.

You’re lucky. Because a 2rm BTO in SG is big enough that you still can have a separate kitchen with a yard to do your laundry and a storeroom.

in fact some floor plans can allow you to build a small study

That's why. Locals should be appreciative of public housing and stop complaining ! No one is pointing gun at their head to buy million dollar flats, it's willing seller and willing buyer. Simple logic so difficult to understand?

Except me. I rent a lease from hdb and am happy if the price overall drop 50%.

Isn’t it you “rent” at 500k, price drop to 200k, but you still need to pay 500k because you rented when price was 500k?

Or your renting plan is different?

Yes I'm willing to take a hit for the future generations to afford a home at a cheaper price. It sounds stupid but do it once, do it right.

This is why PAP should be voted out.

Don't need to argue about fake reserve.

Don't need PAP to rob your reserve.

Even simpler logic.

Even easier to understand.

At the same time, moderator should ban you too.

Is there any statistics how many keep fail to ballot then ended up have to buy expensive resale flat?

What happen to "Affordable homes for everyone" if there is not enough supply to demand.

can always buy 3 rooms flat at non mature areas. parents one room, 3 kids squeeze is one room.

Anything more is extra.

HDB priced BTO flat higher.
Reseller sell HDB flat at higher price.

Then govt comment sinkies are "robbing" the reserves if asked for lower BTO/HDB flat prices. Which then leads to govt have to declare more "grants" to buyer.

Since more grant is given then need to fill/top up reserves by raising taxes.

60% Kym?

So many flats launched. Singaporeans got so many chewren getting married? So wo are the buyers?

 

[Hyruga]

Resale flats got more grants hor...

Don't forget your bto also becomes resale after you get your key.

Future generations have ways generate income to ensure they have a roof on their head. No need to worry for them. There is no need to act noble.

 

[Hyruga]

Ya lo. Cannot compare.

Last time median income only 3k.

Now median income is 5k.

Epass is 5.5k or something.

Not noble. It's about righting the wrong. The root of the problem is in using cpf to pay for housing.

The root of the problem is negative mindset.

 

[coolhead]

The root of the problem is negative mindset.

How do you consider negative mindset being the root cause versus the introduction of CPF as the policy increasing liquidity to the housing market?

 

[Whimsica]

For the good of WP, Jamus Lim should talk less.

Layman like me know that if gahman sells each BTO $100K cheaper, each year it will collect 10,000 BTOs x $100K i.e. $1 billion less.

Divided by, say 2 million sinkie taxpapers, it means gahmen will have to find the $1 billion shortfall by taxing 2 million sinkie $500 more.

Meanwhile the 10,000 BTO owners will not thank you for helping them huat another $100K more when they flip their BTO after MOP.

And next year another 10,000 BTO owners. And another. And another.

All happily spending that extra $100K that they otherwise won't have and push up inflation year after year, pawning the 2 million sinkie taxpayers and their families.

 

[AcquiT]

Just be appreciative and be contented. Don't complain.

 

[Lifeisgoodagain]
