Thats what i thought so...
But when i look at Criterion Official Website..
It mention "get direct deveolper price and no need to pay any commission"
Does this means that the offered price will be cheaper from the list price minus off the commission price playable to the agents if we engage the developer sales directly???
Or it will be more expensive if we engage non official agent? But shld not b the case since in the past commission is transparent to buyer....

btw juz to clarify.....purchasers dun need to pay any commission if u are getting a new launch EC or pte condo. developers will be paying agents the comm. ;)

As of today, 67 out of 505 units sold. So about 13% sold. Quite slow hor, maybe this is how EC sales work.

From URA website, in Dec 2015 a small discount of $200+ was given for some units sold. Maybe Xmas promotion since not all units sold in Dec 15 got this discount?

xmas promo? haha good idea

criterion top soon but still got ~39 units left.

Can. The 5 + 15 % is $36000. The rest can be loan from bank provided you are young. If got existing HDB best, can sell and top up. But if loan $450000 max, the balance must be paid cash... So that's why got existing HDB best, sell and top up.

If current lowest priced unit is 720k

5% cash = 36,000
15% CPF / Cash = 108,000
3% Stamp duty = 21,600

80% Bank loan = 576,000
(If you are unable to get this loan figure, you need to top up with cash / cpf)

Miscellaneous charges = lawyer fees (around 2,500), Bank fees (100+ ?)

Repayment amount is based on current housing interest rate charged by bank. They will advise you. But i think should be around +/- 1,500 range per month
