Just went to Parc Life showflat during lunch.
Layout not bad. The kitchen, though is 2 rows facing type, but at least can accommodate 2 persons staying side by side. Bathroom size consider big too.

Agent says tomorrow the discount will be cut 1% to 4% (not sure if i hear it correctly). Then now it comes with Smart home concept too.

Smart home concept is just top up 8k ( i think, cant rmb) for some smart appliances... and their selling point is no smart home fees as the app to control is free. I took a photo of the board outside the showroom which advertises the smart home thingy.

I am completely shocked at FCL's hypocritical turnaround to offer the smart home concept. I seem to remember this article only last month:

FCL launches new executive condo in Sembawang

DESPITE upcoming supply, Frasers Centrepoint Limited (FCL) is not concerned about the executive condominium (EC) market, proceeding with the launch of its latest project, Parc Life, at an average price of S$770 to S$800 per square foot (psf).

"We believe there is healthy demand from HDB homeowners who have achieved the minimum occupation period (MOP) and are looking to re-invest or upgrade," said Cheang Kok Kheong, chief executive officer of development and property at FCL.

Mr Cheang added ECs are also appealing to the first-time buyers, especially young couples who are setting up their first home, because of their potential for capital appreciation after the five-year MOP ...

... FCL's Chinese competitor Qingjian Realty also recently launched its EC, The Visionaire, in the Sembawang area. It received an enthusiastic response on the first weekend e-applications opened, with more than 400 applications being made for the 632-unit project.

The Visionaire's selling point is that its units feature smart devices that residents can remotely access via a mobile app.

However, Mr Cheang explained that the current hard-wired smart home systems do not provide flexibility and that the wireless alternative is still in a developing stage. "In a survey we conducted, we do not see a significant demand for smart homes. Therefore, we are focusing on providing homeowners with quality finishes and unique unit layouts while leaving them the flexibility to customise and install their own smart home system to match their lifestyles," said Mr Cheang. E-applications for Parc Life will start on April 16 and end on April 24. Bookings will take place on April 30. The project's expected date of Temporary Occupation Permit is in the first quarter of 2018.

If Parc life are considering to include smart home device, personally i think its pretty useless. Like visionaire, only first year free. What are the the charges like? what do they cover? 24/7? Please do not forget that its the 1st of its kind in the market which means the are conducting exp.

Unless u stay near sembawang, its not worth considering a project over there.

Gifts usually affect the loan quantum. Later have to top up in cash.

price increase or reducing discount is just the form of things working behind. what's really true is, the marketers play the potential buyer's minds, and give their agents certain instructions to tell the price changes to potential buyers.

don't dig too much into these price fluctuations to find reasons. their profits are big enough to absorb 1% or 2% price changes. it's sales techniques.

Anyone know what SMART features and additional cost (including maintenance fee) that PARC life recently implement ?

Only the Yale biometric lock is given. Anything else at own cost and need to contact vendor on your own. Nothing to do with developer

donjoo24 · Jun 4, 2016

Just visited parclife showflat this morning, currently buyers are given 2 choices

1) $2300 worth of farser centerpoint vouchers or
2) $2300 worth of the assa abloy interlligent home package.

the agent that serve me showed me how the intelligent home work. can control the lights, aircon, etc.. and the best thing is there is no subscription fee needed. everything is control from the hp. seems cool to me.

My kids like the park that is link to the development side gate. anyone bought already?
