Just got confirmation of 1st Appt for a 4room, 4I, 83 SQM, Tanjong Pagar Plaza, on 21st May 2012, starting to do my research on the renovation, hope to learn from all the people here, their experience and wisdom and also share my journey into making this place my home.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us just got the exact layout from hdb but not so much details, is this layout good ? intend for single person or just couple with occasion friends or parents coming to sleep over so no need 3 bedrooms,

thinking of tearing down the wall between the top 2 bedroom and make it into a big masterbed room but friend advise me against it so that in future easier to sell or rent out as rooms to collect rent then any one can advise where to install a storeroom ? anyone have the same layout ?

Uploaded with ImageShack.us this is the layout,

Firstly, Thank you for taking time to reply or share your knowledge, But to what I know, we can change the date of 2nd appt, can sort of keep changing until seller found new place then change to nearer date

will be going for 2nd viewing and quite like the place, but agent told me owner like to request for 2 months more to look for place, i am fine with the delay but i hope that can allow for nego for reduction of COV, also can request for this official black and white so that only after owner move out then i take over ? where to put this down ? OTP or bring up during 1st appt ? or just to book late 2nd appt ?

can you pm me the contact of the contractor, thanks !

Please PM me the contact as well, thanks !!!

Hi, will be getting a resale 4I flat soon and would like to ask for some advice or help, the house i am intending to get, has only 1 WC and 1 shower room outside of the bedrooms and not in the kitchen, is it possible to install 1 more toilet bowl in the shower room ? or it cannot be done ?

Please pm me Mr Chew's contact no. Thank you!

hi, anyone seen this or know where i can find contract to build this for my house ? My link

sorry, which 2 areas, are you suggesting that i go and take a look at evening ? so finally which place did you buy and how was it ?

I also agree Jellicoe is the best as the view is great and mrt is just downstairs and recently, there is kou fu food court and wendys, and maybe some more shops are tjhe building just beside the block but today i called the agent and ask, there is no valuation, buyer must get his own valuation and prepare 200k cash for COV, that is so ridiculous, 200k cash as COV, might as well buy condo or other places, other locations just turned 3 years old only asking like 60 to 85k COV, based on the previous transacted prices in hdb, it never went above 650k, seriously, we are all victims here, people asking ridiculous COV where no one in power is stopping such whatever you call it, well, i guess i will settle for cantonment close, as there is news that PSA will move out and make way for new high class residential area or maybe a 3rd casino, furthermore, jellicoe is near to muslim cemetry, so might be bad fengshui for those who are not strong might be jinxed by the bad magnetic field,

hi, thinking of buying a resale flat in the following locations : 1 ) cantonment close, ideally 4rm but if not available, buy 5 rm close to mrt, not so crowded and not so noisy there are only few blocks there, but in future, PSA might be building some new things there so might have construction for a few years, noise and dust, 2 ) toa payoh, near to central, new 4rm, convenience to amenities but crowded 3 ) redhill mrt, oppposite, blk 70 series, newly available 4rms seems like rooms are not perfectly square as 2 corners are cut, also crowded but amenities not as good as toa payoh 4 ) commonwealth MRT, blk 90 series, newly available but amenities are no so good compared to cantonment close or toa payoh 5 ) lavender mrt, jellicoe, 4rm best view, not so much amenities working in shenton area, can anyone share any bad experience in the above locations or good ones which i might have overlooked,
