Thanks 2 roomer! hasnt been reading the tblogs for awhile. finally got another 2-roomer starting a Tblog. Hope to learn from the threadstarter.

Finally! a 2-room BTO Tblog! andotang! I will be camping here and looking forward to see you realising your dream home step by step! FYI, we have got a group of 2-roomers gathering at this thread: http://www.renotalk.com/forum/topic/71070-2-room-bto/

managed to get 1 is good liao. so many pple out there still trying their luck on every bto or those single parent families not able to get a roof.

Welcome our new member! Please read page 1. LOL!

Hi Pauline, are you getting 2 room BTO or resale flat too?

even 4 room can make do with $25k... I think the standard quote from ID for our 45m2 2 room bto with flooring should be around $15k to $18k. If no feature wall, track lights, false ceilings etc should be lower. of course, depends on what type of material you choose, eg granite or marble will of cos be more ex. For vinyl, if it is Evorich HERF vinyl, I think the cost from Evorich now is about $6. So it is norm for ID to quote higher. There are other brands quoting $4+.

MsBunny, if you still have air bubbles for your door sticker, u can use needle to poke and release the air, so that sticker is flat. it will leave a small needle poke hole though. btw, i like your "new" door!

rainbow, you can find varying's floor plan on page 1 of this thread. Just checked, is 1900 x 1900 I got took picture of the HDB show room but too bad it did not states the measurement. also from amazon? brand?

MsBunny, what are you buying? do share your review once you got them ok? I was very tempted to get the Kraus sink after reading all those good reviews about their purchase from amazon in another thread.

taobao confirm lower. but amazon gives more confidence as in if the item is faulty or what they allow exchange. some items gives free international shipping. this is what i gathered from some of the buyers.

Cant help to share this video. Sorry, dunno how to embed the youtube video. https://youtu.be/Tg2lcTdloIQ

Another alternative rack: http://list.qoo10.sg/item/RESTOCK-LOCAL-FAST-SHIPPING-LAUNDRY/417853973?sid=4421#none Think I will get 1 too for my parents.

the good thing about not having top cabinets is your kitchen will look more spacious. any more pictures on the living room?

varying, any review on the shower curtain? Is it useful to keep the water within the shower curb? where did you bought the L-shape shower screen hanger? I wanted to install shower screen and alternative is shower curtain. I see no top hang cabinet in kitchen, are there enough storage space? i saw some rack selling in Qoo10 to maximise the space on top of your washing machine: http://list.qoo10.sg/item/BATHROOM-RACK-CORNER-RACK-CORNER/410746235?selectedOptions=#none

sure not enough hanging space for me...

yup, i too rather have a bigger living room or bed room or even kitchen rather than have that household shelter.

I think that is a full height cabinet. I am planning to build something like that too but may / may not be full height. This is to block the view from main door. What is the standard width of a wardrobe? I need to go back pages to see your floor plan again. Varying, please show us more photos.

88 designs on 1 bedroom + 1 living room http://www.daliulian.com/cat105/node467285?refer=33926 Ryan, you might see some ideas for your divider between living room and bedroom.

Initially I thought I can take the 1st timer grant of $15k to offset with the additional $15k payable for single. Later then know than I am not eligible for grant at all and still have to pay additional $15k... That makes my cost of the unit to $139.6k.

no leh, i didnt get any grant and still have to pay additional 15k because under the single scheme...

oic. but is my understanding of the MOP correct? 5 years will start from the date when we collect keys. Also suddenly thought of this. for those who had applied new BTO, we need to pay additional 15k because of the single scheme right?

If you are lucky to get a balance flat, then earliest would be 35. Sorry, need clarification on your last statement. MOP is calculated from the date when we collect keys right? And we can apply for another new flat after we have completed the MOP of 5 years right?

Upon application I believe. Confirm. "You must be at least 35 years old at the time of application to buy a 2-room flat in non-mature estates under the Build-To-Order System (BTO) exercise under the Single Singapore Citizen Scheme, Non-Citizen Spouse Scheme and Joint Singles Scheme."

Congrats! Guess you are spoilt by choices... lol!

MsBunny, is there glass at the opening to your kitchen? Your kitchen and bathroom looks good!
