Frankly, twice is very little.

Frankly speaking, you might not get a number for sobf also, it all depends on the area of choice..

For those 2 times u failed, i'm guessing it's more of those "in" locations..

I applied for Nov 15 Hougang and Feb 16 Sengkang. Both 4rm. Am hoping to get these areas bcos near to both my and fiance's parents.

Lol I'm hoping on luck ah. My bro applied 2nd time only and he got queue number 4 at hougang sobf. Bt he applied 3 rm, so the demand is different.

Higher usually if compared to those BTO initial launch..

By how much, only HDB knows how it's priced at..

i do agree with you, it is really base on that number, if the number is good then you get within your list of selection of your unit, if the number is bad then really erm (out the range, ethnic quota, lowest floor etc..).. this really a number game which involve luck also..

heartbreak also have to try and try again till you get and sign for a unit right?
i also trying, my last bto on the feb is no que number leh.. hoping and wait for nov sobf as that i got a que number but the number of supply was exceed +12.

I didn't any queue number for both application bcos far exceed the supply.
True. Try and try again. However, if by the time I'm getting married (Dec 2017) and we can't settle on any BTO/SOBF, we'll probably go for resale flat. Both me and fiance sharing bedroom with siblings. So got to find a place no matter how many failed applications.

Resale is not a bad idea esp now the market is going down. Where are you aiming? If mature estate, of course going to be expensive lo
