Toilet designed by Kelvin, Febricated by Tau Coffee table fm Dahlia Gallery at Amoy St

some pics of my place TV Console **** Room TV Console cum Bookcase at Study Rm My dining area outside Bi-fold Toilet door Toilet before & after Kitchen before & after In general, i'm pleased with the results & their svcs. Kelvin is accomodating & easy going..some of the 'xtras' i 'bully' him into doing: - installing venetian blinds/cabinets tat i purchased fm ikea/spotlight - changing broken panel of glass window w/o charge - replacing laminate chipped by my mover - additional glass panel for kitchen cabinet at no charge - exchanging wrong lightings tat i self purchased - changes to plumbing works w/o charge As wif all renovation works, thr r hiccups/mistakes but he's always reachable & will arrange for touch up & rectification my only gripes r probably the plastering works & general cleaning. I'm in a hurry to move in so not much time given for touch up.. but i can live wif tat la so yes.. add me to the list of Tau supporter

$35k COV for marsiling? forget it

It's either pretty new flats... boon tiong rd, jln membina, which r ex... or very old flats..Beo cres, havelock rd, jln klinik, jln bt ho swee...which r cheaper, but still ex, look for 3 rm corner that offers more privacy the location is really pretty good, great world city & tiong bahru plaza within walking distance and travelling to orchard/town is a breeze if u drive, then can consider henderson, bt purmei, jln bt merah, redhill close... which r further fm the mrt

hope for enbloc

i'm sure the age of the flat affects valuation, other things being equal but ppl r still willing to pay...look at some of the charming 3-rm walk up flats at tiong bahru Lim Siak St going for $300k on another note... banks may not extend the full loan duration for old flats i got an OLD flat recently, close to 40 years recently, & m surprised tat the bank is only willing to grant a 14 year loan thou i'm eligible for a full 30 yr loan based on my age

serious bo? i always tot the final inspection b4 handover is a formality as home owners buy the house in the 'as-in' condition

lucky i sell my flat at senja Grand, opp senja green.. noisy & dusty whn construction starts & our view will be blocked

can elaborate & show us the *****?

IMO, 1. If the agent 'specialises' in a certain area, he should know or you can easily find out fm HDB resale txn but tat would be 1-2 months outdated 2. Almost neglible but good decor & clean environment appeals to prospective buyers & u may get a higher COV 3. Sure, juz pay $180 for the valuation report wif a few photos

yeap yeap

my flat die die must complete by end of next week wet works done, kitchen skeleton & laminate up, pending painted glass doors & solid surface top. Other carpetry mostly fabricated & delivered, pending installation.. i thk should be able to la... kelvin jiayou!
