Finally, the day has come ! After waiting for 120 days since we signed the OTP, tomorrow will be the completion date for our purchase Reno will start immediately on the next day with hacking. Hopefully everything 'soon soon' so I can move in by 24 Oct. Got to vacant my existing place on the same day, as the completion of my selling is on 25 Oct.

Hi Mae, Thanks ! Unfortunately my hubby is RAT I got no choice have to shift by either 23 or 24 Oct, cause my completion of selling is on 25 Oct. any advice what to do in order to "protect" my hubby if we are going to shift on 24 Oct ? Thanks again !

Yes you can combine a few properties to get loan, but have to make sure these properties are not mortgaged. Meaning the bank must have first charge of the mortgage of properties. Beside equity loan (term loan). You may consider Overdraft facilities. Interest rate is higher compared to equity / term loan, no lock in period. Can always check with your banker for the best option that suit you.

Thanks for the info, chewbb !

Hi chewbb, Nice 3D drawings ! End result sure turn out very nice and cosy ! Btw, how much did you pay for Panasonic Inverter System 3 ?

Though it's not a must but it is advisable to insure your lovely home. Sum assured will depend on how much is your renovation and total household items, ie. electrical appliances and / or collectible items. Try to pm you but seems your inbox is full.

Common Toilet - wall / feature wall / floor Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Tiles selection Living / Bedrooms / Kitchen wall Uploaded with ImageShack.us Kitchen - top for wall and bottom for floor Uploaded with ImageShack.us Foyer - marble chips from Malaysia. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Master Toilet - top for wall and bottom for floor. No feature wall for master toilet. ID told me to do something different - the highlight for the toilet will be the vanity top. No drawing as to keep me suspended. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Also will be using river stones (also from Malaysia) at the shower area at Master Toilet ID said can do foot massaging at the same time while having shower Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Passage way to the bedrooms. Marble chip flooring and full height mirror at the end of the walk way. Again, due to budget, have to forgo the box columns at the walk way ceiling.

No drwaing for WIW Will get some nice wall decals to decorate the plain divider. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Living Area. Decided not to have the raised storage platform and natural stone feature wall due to very very tight budget. Hope end result turns out well without the feature wall.

Thumbnails sent by my ID via email immediately the next day after our first meeting in early June, though we have not confirm to engage her at that time. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Some conceptual drawings, not the usual 3D drawings provided by Singapore ID. Really like her overall design and ideas. Due to very very tight budget, we have to forgo some of the ideas Foyer Uploaded with ImageShack.us Marble chip flooring at Foyer will look like this Uploaded with ImageShack.us View from Living to foyer Uploaded with ImageShack.us Shoe Cabinet

Nice and sexy ! Where did you get the bed and how much is it ?

Refer to the link below, look at post #227 for contact http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=2460&pid=735881&st=200entry735881 The price is reasonable, but end up I never instal the shower screen due to safety reason. Hubby heard lots of scary story about shower screen that just shredded into pieces suddenly. This make him worry about our 2 kids, so scrap the shower screen, replaced by shower curtain instead. This gives us more space for shower as movement not restricted by the fix panel.

Wow, your quote from Chew is scary ! Why the shower screen for MBR & Common toilet so expensive ? Is it sliding type or 1 fix 1 swing type? I was quoteed for 1 fix 1 swing for my MBR toilet for $380 only, including installation ! Did they specify the brand of the hood, hob, sink and aircon ? System 2 inverter aircon for $2500 to me is very expensive ! If go for Panasonic Sys 2 Inverter, you can get at ard $2k if I am not wrong.

Master Toilet - really cannot "tahan" the pipes, so dirty ! Uploaded with ImageShack.us Common Toilet Uploaded with ImageShack.us Service Balcony Uploaded with ImageShack.us Household Shelter - near the kitchen entrance Uploaded with ImageShack.us Balcony Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Thanks Casa ! Sure will post pics to update the reno journey !

Oh yes, though it was tenanted out, this is considered very clean le. Just the kitchen is very oily due to Indian cooking style
