This is my 6-7th attempt, closest I got is within 150% of the available unit.

There's always next try. Ha ha. Good luck to you too!


6-7 attempt?? Is it that hard to get a good que num for first timer? I'm thinking of applying for Sept BTO and is first time applying it. My parent stay near. Will I have a good chance?

To be honest, I am quite picky when applying, so most of the time I apply for the more popular ones, maybe that's why I never get good number.
this is the record
Jul 12, BM, 9++
May 12, KW, 11++ (% wise the closest)
Mar 12, SOBF, 200% more
Sept 11, SOBF close to 300%
July 11, Punggol 5 rooms, no number
Mar 11, SOBF 200%
can not remember the last time leh, no number also

I go see MP, go pray, go Thailand once, still like that. Ha ha, what to do?
I am just glad that my parents are not chasing me out. :s13::s13::s13:

If we really want a selected bto from mature estate and 4-room, is it advisable to apply despite of high competition (lower chance of getting) or should go for 3-room instead (higher chance of getting)? Any suggestions?

I was in a same dilemma as yours.

My advice is to discuss it thoroughly with your spouse. If you miss this BTO the next one is in 2 months time. However, if you choose a 3room and it doesn't suit your needs, you will end up regretting for at least 5 years during the MOP

its all about luck actually.
New 3rooms are really small, think wisely.
You are likely to be staying for a very long period of time.
Affordability and family space is a major concern.
