LIV @ MB D15

[CaptainSGP]

1. no nearby shopping or markets
2. Walkway to MRT not covered
3. No primary schools within 1km. 2km - SC must ballot for Kong Hwa in 2B. TKPS not easy for SPR to get in.

this is more of an expat / western foreigner place for lease, or for empty nesters / older families in sec and up

I don’t think these are concerns of the buyer profile looking at Liv@MB.

Im sure someone who can buy a unit here can easily afford to buy a car to travel to malls/markets, or take Grab/Taxi if raining.

I think people are under-estimating the power of TEL which can transform the landscape and lifestyle of residents in Katong/East Coast area. Imagine 4/5 stops to Maxwell market, 1/2 stops to Parkway/Joo Chiat and all these schools (VJC,VS,TaoNan,SJI,SCGS,RGS,AiTong,EJC,StNick) within 30 minutes direct train ride !

Transformation no doubt. It will limit some younger families though as they first have to get into P1. Got eton house around the corner, no need for government childcare

Put it this way, I am motivated to stay in a one bedder in Liv during retirement than a one bedder elsewhere.

Liv also lesser of evils? Or can consider it good buy if in line with indicative price?

If in line with indicative price I will prefer this than PG for self stay. I’m a fan of D15 so definitely there’s some bias-ness in my preference. Like another bro, I like the TEL line and see potential in it. I almost bought seaside residence 4 bedder back then. But eventually decided not to but went for a cheaper 4 bedder and 2 bedder which roughly also adds up the same quantum if I commit to seaside R.
My take is if a single property cost more than 3mil quantum, it’s usually harder to exit. So it really depends what quantum and size u r looking at in liv.

TEL passes through estates where the residents dont need to use it (i.e. they have car) so the passenger load is lighter than other lines. In addition, it passes through CBD and ends near the airport (a place i love going).

Above said, i am still not sure about Liv@MB. Maybe i should go to the showflat one day

Also consider that jalan tembusu with 602 units is launching soon as well. Amber Park residents have also not moved in yet. Is the area able to accept so many new residents? Will there be over saturation with so many new units and choices?
The price to enter here is also not so cheap.

Yes, I did share the same concerns when Amber park/coastline/nyon r all launched at the same time pertaining to my concern on saturation in that area. That’s y I also clearly stated it’s more for buyers looking for self stay and also, provided the launch price is inline with the indicative price what the bros had shared here.

This one size big, quantum big, if still attract alot hdb upgraders to leverage for the 3br ones, it'll be quite amazing

 

[runforyourlife]

most recent 3b resale level17 is transacted at 1797psf, 1.78m.

This is still reasonable...

Haha to frank, I’m not sure if Liv is a make money project because after all it’s a small size project. Maybe the Jalan tembusu one can really take a look

I was walking at East Coast this morning. Again reminded me that I did not put the trigger for Seaside sea facing at $17xx psf. That stack should be at least $23xx now.

I wonder if the old rich that populate this area will prefer Thiam Siew FH

Liv’s layout and spaciousness in the development is really its biggest selling point. Jalan Tembusu probably will be CDL’s typical functional layout.

Dunman GLS opposite the mrt is one I’m excited for. Been seeing ads for years already. But maybe priced out sigh

Dunman GLS will not be cheap, likely launch at 24xx psf & above

Yes possible, if these old rich are deciding for their kids. But if their adult child makes the call, highly likely they will buy Liv.

Thiam Siew Ave is going to be 2 independent condos which will be hard to differentiate from those current Butterworth condos. I still hope developer will change their mind and build one large iconic project instead.

[evilduxy]

[fearhimwhofearsnothing]

Looking at the Pg demand, won't be surprised if this sells 60% to 80%
