blue_diamond 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2009 The more they do the more they earn mah. good luck in ur ID/Contractor search. The advantages abt ID is you no need to crack ur head to think of design and layout, unless u very sway kanna the kind of ID poor Lawry had. The advantage of contractor is their good pricing but then design wise, we will need ot do alot of homework. Totally agree with u....in fact we have been cracking our head on design as well...somehow just worried that our design turn out ugly...wahahaha I am poor in all these...luckily my wifey is better in such area...my job is just to be a runner for her...wahahahaha.

booy 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2009 Diamonds! *bling bling* We were also previously looking around McNair area because it's in the middle of both our parent's house.. But didn't manage to find any house we like.. So in the end, we explored further and further till we reached Bishan... Congrats on your home sweet home.. Ah Soon will definitely be much cheaper than ID, but you need to project manage yourself and ID shall be the wifey... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
