zirhk3355 1 Report post Posted September 15, 2008 Thinking aloud: Most of us earns a household income of between $4001 - $6000 with less than $40K in CPF, but most of our monthly instalments are more than $1200/mth. Somehow this just does not sound right... ;( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sam Lee Poh Huat 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2008 Everytime i look at the resale/new prices these days makes me comparing with those i've seen during SAR's period. Wonder what makes such a big differences . High monthly PUBLIC housing installment + high inflation gonna eat to those who commit during this peak period. "Luckily" enough i was hold back due to this 30 mth financial restriction owing to transfer of flat ownership to my name this year.. I'll wait n c next year.. but **** i know my increment next year is already gonna offset by this high inflations~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaile2002 0 Report post Posted September 18, 2008 The prices have gone crazy for DBSS flats.. I was shocked they were asking $500K - to over $700K! I bought my 5A in 2000 and monthly paying slighly below $1200, but still wipe out all our CPF... Then early this year plan to move. Like Cityview location but not eligible to buy. But when look at their price, decided to buy private in suburban instead... at least at $700K, I have the facilities to enjoy during weekend. Came to realised that I may not have great open view of the City or the National Day fireworks, or near to city (no thanks to the traffic jam at Boon Keng every morning,and you still got to pay ERP anyway!) But I've got pool view and breezy wind, and yet close to HDB amenities (in fact closer than that of Cityview's) What upside will Cityview have? $1 mil in 5 years time? Privatised in 10 years time and add condo facilities? Actually i worry for my kids... by the time they get married, don't know how man... I guess his old folks got to leave $$ for them. Hopefully they make it in life and do better than their old man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I heard they are releasing those leftover units for this yr at end of the mth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
