Yeap i understand and have told her if she cancel i will be suing her for attempt to fraud. but it wont stop her from doing it... =( sighz.......

I am caught in a bad situation. Seller called and said she wanna cancel the first appt cos of the new ruling! My first appt is on 29th September. She is in aussie and said she cant buy a new place if she sells hers here. I suspect she wants to invest in the aussie place even when she is back in Singapore. How can i "threathen" her or i am caught in a deep **** situation? Can i sue her for damages beyond 5K? Also, if she now has 2 properties 1 in sg , 1 in aussie, she dun need to sell one of them?

ooh no la, i think is the right timeframe. he said he exercised on 30th july do paperwork 3 days later, so also spent about 1 mth waiting for the first appt. I was under the impression he just signed and just submitted form to hdb as he has earlier mentioned he could be the last person before the change of hdb rulings. So i guess, the last person would be the one that signed and paid $5K on 30th Aug

I dunno about bank, as mine is HDB. Just to update, the second valuation, done approx 3-4weeks apart, was up 8K.

how come u so fast can have ur first appt? =( Mine OTP in 8 August, but only first appt in 29 Sept =(

My agent says, get from HDB. Who gets? Me or her? or seller pass to me?

Do i need to be present for the inspection? As in, what if the twon council mentioned A to Z, and the seller only done A? ALso, for buyers, do u all check the pipings etc from the upstairs, downstairs neighbour or you engage a Certified Engineer etc to check? What to look out for beyond just the big chucks of walls?

Think how much u earned by selling ur 5i and in addition 40K, u shld be already smiling to the bank, and not thinking how much MORE u could have earned. *haiz* Already profitted still want more...

I feel is quite high cos i seen one at bukit batok ard 10K COV for 3rd floor with toilet and kitchen at so-so condition

Bukit Batok, Aug 10, COV35K, EA, $480K For Jurong West market rate, u can go to HDB website to get the recent transacted price.

Thanks! In that case ... probably we will raise it nearer to the first appt date, that is ard1.5 mths later? We are so cash tight that 5K really would love us!

not really. I used to stay there when i was a kid. True there is no NTUC nearby, bt u have macD oppoisite, KFC at the side, with community center within raech. there are lotssss of hawker centre around and an Econ Minimart below. MRT is just below the block without needing any brolly when it rains! =) I agree the railings, becos my mom used to warn me about that when i was playing ard the corridor.

Like the simplicity of the reno so far =) very clean cut! How much was the reno quoted by Yeak?

Hmm looks like there are low low cov around. I haven paid, but soon @ 35K for a 30yrs old EA @ bukit batok. cost is 500K. kinda ex? Oh ya, for those who paid,w hen did u all pay the cov?

But i am going thru HDB loan. How would it differ?

Thanks much! Do u all see any differences in valuation done 2 weeks apart?

Thanks Everyone for the information. By the time first appt, i would have 2 valid reports, since the new will supercede, there might be a chance the new val report is lower, then another risk to take. hmm... =( I am using HDB, so to exercise OTP, i can just show the old one, then in first appt show the new one (if it is better than the old one)?

To add on, seller is a very reasonable lady. She just want to cash out anyway since she is migrating to elsewhere. So COV or not, doesnt really matter to her. She just want to sell at 500K.

Here goes the story... The seller wants a fixed price to sell, regardless of valuation, ie 500K. Her val report was expired and require a COV of 55K. We paid for a new val and was done up this week that requires us to top up to COV of 35K. Now, can we OTP based on this final amount, since she wants 500K, and then, we go ahead to try for another valuation? Her neighbours are getting 500K with a super nice hotel deco style, and we were hopping to get around 480K. If the new report is higher than the older one, can we use this val report? I reckon that 14days of OTP period, we will get the val by the new accessor. If the new report is lower, can we adopt the older one? does the new report supercedes the old one or we can basically use any report that is more favourable to us?

I think is ok. becos in Bukit Batok from 3, 4, room to EA EM, they range from 40K to 80K! =X
