Cia 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2008 (edited) anyone going for it? any idea whats the price range and when it be ready for balloting? I am rather interested in Simei DBSS. Not sure what's the price range but i hope it won't be as costly as The Preimere at Tampines which is also Under Sim Lian. Read that it will be launched next Feb! OMG can't waiT! By the way the payment of it should be first 5% downpayment by CASH but for the rest of 15% by CPF.. how bout CPF grant can it be used to pay for the 15%??

istarcon 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2008 (edited) So.. the price will be ard the same the Tampines DBSS? It will be launched Next Feb right? Very likely to be more expensive than The Premiere @ Tampines DBSS in terms of PSF, due to rising construction costs and the fact that SimLian bidded more per square metre of the gross plot area for Simei's piece of land. The Premiere @ Tampines = $82,222,000 / 67,200 = $1,223.54 psm Simei DBSS site = $52,000,000 / 35,333.55 = $1,471.69 psm In addition, judging from the response of CityView @ Boon Keng, which managed to sell off more than 60% of its units even after setting at record HDB high prices. (Personally, I believe that being able to sell about 60% even before completion, the developer's profit is already secured.) Hence, it's unlikely that future private developer built housing would go down much lower since there is demand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design,_Build_and_Sell_Scheme 28/10/2005 12/01/2006 18/01/2006 Tampines PH1 Tampines Avenue 6 21,000.00 103 3.2 67,200.0 Sim Lian Land Pte Ltd $82,222,000 6 The Premiere@ Tampines 16/03/2007 29/05/2007 06/06/2007 Boon Keng PH1 Boon Keng Road 18,394.00 103 4.2 67,647.00 Hoi Hup Realty Pte Ltd/ Sunway Concrete Products (S) Pte Ltd/ Oriental Worldwide Investments Inc $170,200,000 6 City View @ Boon Keng 12/09/2007 27/11/2007 05/12/2007 Ang Mo Kio PH1 Ang Mo Kio Street 52 16,789.10 103 3.5 58,761.85 Greatearth Developments Pte Ltd $134,180,000 5 Park Central @ AMK 27/12/2007 19/02/2008 28/02/2008 Bishan PH1 Bishan Street 24 15,218.50 103 3.5 53,264.75 Qingdao Construction Group Corporation (Singapore Branch) $135,888,777 3 Not available 08/04/2008 03/06/2008 06/06/2008 Simei PH1 Simei Road 16,825.50 103 2.1 35,333.55 Sim Lian Land Pte Ltd $52,000,000.00 Edited August 27, 2008 by istarcon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rdnest 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2008 that time i was enquiring for boon keng cityview, the HDB officer advised tt we just need to pay te 1st 5% in cash to book the unit and when ur cpf is cfm enuff to cover the 20%, the cash will be returned to u by cheque. but later we felt the unit really v ex lah, will be slave to the flat for a long time, so gave up just for ur info, at least if the 5% is a concern.
