zeegi 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) It's a 4A, 20yr old resale flat at Serangoon Central. Bought it at $381k with $13k COV. Here's the floor plan: Currently sourcing for IDs: Have tried 2 U-home IDs- the first guy was terrible! 45min late for appointment, delayed our 2nd meeting for 1 week because designer was busy (yes.. he's not the ID but an Asst Manager), hard sell the package, not flexible to change the items in the package and hence die die wants the total amount which is way off our budget! The 2nd guy was so much better- introduced by BigAngel & LittleDevil. He was more realistic and planned how to utilise the space without doing much hacking. We just wanted something simple and we had a good discussion for almost 2 hrs!! What a relief =) We approached another uncle contractor. Recommended by Mr D's friend who is a building facilities consultant so this contractor's workmanship is top top tops. But labour abit expensive and very uncle cos he wanna downsize and retire soon. Needs abit of spoon feeding but very flexible. You can pick tiles and material from anyway. He'll order and charge you back-to-back on material cost only.

Cherry 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2008 nice layout! the valuation of your unit is quite high huh? is it near the mrt station? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zeegi 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2008 nice layout! the valuation of your unit is quite high huh? is it near the mrt station? the owner's valuation report in April was 345k and we bouught it at 381k. My property agent then said that the value is abit low so we re-valued and it went up to 365k! So we only need to pay 13k COV happy like siao man... heee =^_^= We're 1 block away from the MRT station that is facing the expressway. So at least we're filtered from the noise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
