Unless no choice.
Those can afford condo should.

YOLO. You only get to benefit aka loan from bank 1 or 2 times nia to change your fate with world's safest and steady investment - Singapore Property.

Obviously the riches foreigners don't all come to invest in Singapore property market for no reason.

There's no other investment that you get to invest and use at the same time.


Unless u retiring soon, 30+ still young on career got few cycles to flip.

U can leverage your job and youth. Families also entitled to utilise national resources, bbfa should too.

However once you BTO 2room it's that's it.
No chance to flip, even can who want buy from your old and expensive 2room when newer ones cheaper smell better?

By then also 45yo liao, no banks want loan u also.

U eternity stuck inside that 2room, safe but also missing out on much privileges and opportunities many other Singaporeans have.

The best way is after you 55yo, you then downgrade to 2room after getting to sell your condo to any PR or FT with that profit adding on to your retirement funds.

That is the only way bbfa get to game better.

Just sharing this perspective from various laojiao sharing.

Of course every thing got pros and cons.
Just analyse and think properly for your own better life. Tbh there is no easier life, just better strategised life. YOLO.

I don’t think these are same group of poeple? If still eligible for bto 2 room at 35, they won’t be able to afford condo.

hoot condo never regret! Recently I feel a bit down at work, then think of my 30 yr mortgage and motivation went back up again. I think if no condo I would have felt stuck in life liao, at least now I can look forward to paying off my mortgage. New motto in life.

Condo definitely better than 5 room resale. Thankfully didn't buy 5 room resale then, if not I will have to buy more furniture and do more cleaning now. In addition, 1 person come home to so much wasted space in 5 rm resale sure emo, fancy landscaping and swimming pool in condo is better for me. YOLO lol

Govt also don't give me any handout and keep asking me to pay tax, meanwhile keep treating me like second class citizen. At least now I can take some comfort with my involvement in the Singapore property market.
If not my entire life is just pay and pay till I drop!

So please all go hoot condo and push my condo price up. Thank you.

About to say that... Smarter one would get 4 rm resale and above then rent out. Using others to partially pay for their house.

If you can barely afford... The intersts will negate the gain.

Should buy early if can... today's price is half of 20 years later
Maybe not? Maybe 20 yrs later more and more old ppl uplorry than end up housing demand drop?

Caz china is going like this liao. The young ones cant afford but realised wait to inherit can alr. While the old ones eventually gone. End up no one need buy house liao. This is assuming no import.

To me a cheap or free house is good enough... Rather retire early... Or at least I have the option.
Cannot imagine dragging my loan till 65.
That's why 2nd bto at early to mid 40s means fully paid by then. Steady bom pipi. But I don't intend to retire early

Do not assume sinkieland will have the same income growth trajectory as in the past.

1960s-2000s: incomes rose by many times as sinkieland change from developing country to developed country. Fresh grad starting salary rose from about $300-400 in 1965 to around $2k in 2000. Went up by about 5-6x.

Post-2000s: among developed countries, sinkieland rose to be among the top few countries in terms of GDP per capita. Fresh grad pay only doubled from 2k to 4k.

Hard for salaries to continue rising at such rate. To do that, it would means sinkieland GDP needs to be even higher.

Can you imagine earning a few times more than all the amdk countries?

It is possible. That's why the 10m target is to fulfil replacement of workers and maintain demand.
