Hope I stand a chance.

It's as good as zero especially if it's oversubscribed by many times for the ST.

That's y I give up after knowing only 5% chance for 2nd timer.

ST just go for non mature.

how many times alrdy?

2nd time only.

1st time was kallng MRT project.

could have applied Bidadari for both Nov and May BTO to enjoy MCPS, as my mom is staying at Potong Pasir.

But somehow I prefer old estate area.

 

[henrylbh]

sibei Sayang.

2nd timer apply for non mature estate to stand a better chance.

only 5% of mature estate bto is reserved for 2nd timer.

I remember Ah Khaw changed 5% to 15% and I was sore with it. Sore because I tried new BTO 5 times as 2nd timer before giving up and went for EC balance flats with no queue. Within a few months of booking EC, 2nd timer chance was raised to 15%.

was almost the same as u. until i spoke to my brother. subsidises are given by the govt like freebies. never waste your chance, irregardless of locations and types.

Yes I asked hdb and as Long as one applicant is 2nd timer, it will be considered 2nd timer bye bye Dakota

Hmmm, any clarification from HDB?

 

[windwaver]

The application will be considered 2nd timer as long as either one party is 2nd timer status.

It used to be so but recently HDB has changed rule stating that as long as one of the applicants is 1st timer, they will be considered as 1st timer? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes I asked hdb and as Long as one applicant is 2nd timer, it will be considered 2nd timer bye bye Dakota

Hmmm, it seems that the old rule is still enforced.

Don't feel dishearten, did you apply for 3rm or 4rm? You may still stand a chance at 3rm.

Not taken any form of housing subsidy (e.g. benefitted under the Selective En bloc Redevelopment Scheme (SERS) or HUDC estate privatisation)

If you are a second-timer and your spouse/ spouse-to-be is a first-timer, you will be glad to know that you and your spouse/ spouse-to-be will enjoy first-timer privileges and priority as a couple.

Ya, that was what I read and gathered that there is a change of rule. So is it consider as 1st timer or 2nd timer? Confusing..

Do you know that IRregardless is not a word?

Does anyone have the link to the Clementi NorthArc and Peaks sales brochure? My queue number was 18xx out of 766 and I didn't receive it. But just want to take a look nevertheless.

Many thanks!

Well, at least there's no need to wait plus you get to select what you really want. BTO will mean give and take for most people out of the top 20% range during selection.
