  1. All my bathroom taps/mixers/showers are from Hansgrohe. Seriously, i dunno the diff between Grohe & Hansgrohe but i do know that the raindance is good. I like the massage jets! I think its Raindance Air or something like that,right? We bought ours back in 2006 for abt $700+? Not sure abt the price now. The mohd sultan main branch do have a wide range of choices.
  2. Hello babytan, I might not be the same 'elven_princess' in other forums. heh. Cos i noe another gal has the same nick in flowerpod. I go as 'Dior*addict' there. *Nods in agreement* that sometimes if the flat is in a terrible state, we wont even consider buying it. I think i was lucky that my ex-owners kept their home very neat & clean. We still tore most stuff apart & did a full reno. Quite a pity because the existing marble flooring was actually still in a pretty good cond. My colleague today told me a hdb unit at queenstown area went for $890,000. And the owner bought their unit originally at $300+k. So many cash-rich singaporeans out there, man.
  3. Hi Pheonix, Both my friends got their units late last year. One of them in Dec (she hasnt went for her HDS appt yet), & the other one just got her keys, now renovating. Both units were in very original condition, according to them. I agree in the current market, everyone is asking for sky high prices. But one point to consider: both friends got their units from malay & indian owners. And both friends got their units end of the month. I do think the ethinic quota part plays a high chance in the selling price. Prob the ex-owners were worried that if they do not sell their flats asap, the ethnic quota will be changed the following month IF in the event that someone eles sell their flat (in the same block) before them. I bought my 5-rm Toa Payoh flat (6 yeras old flat) in late 2006, high flr at a valuation of BELOW 5K. Amazing isnt it. Guess what, i bought it from a nice elderly indian couple. Did a overhaul & the money that i was suppose to spend on cov went into my renovation. Good luck guys!
  4. Woah, 35k COV at YISHUN does seem like alot of $$. I have 2 close friends who bought 3 room resale flats at Ang Mo Kio, they paid $8k & $5k COV respectively. (5th & 11th floors) I do think despite the current surge in flat prices, resonable flat prices are still around if you do look around & wait. Both my friends bought their flats in Dec. If i were u, since im doing a full reno overhaul, i'll go for the lowest cash OV. Good luck! =)
