merzi 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2009 Wah this agent is really a blood sucker..... He said that $420K is common price now, with the property price going up, that's the best price he can give... I think i'm going to find other agent..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therat 18 Report post Posted July 29, 2009 if u are buyer, don't depend on 1 agent. Unless u have agent represent u. $420k for bedok reser. That's expensive. U can buy 1 @ Bedok area. BTW, some time is not the agent. The owner expectation is also another sucker. Come across a few example 1. 3.5rm flat asking for $350k. No valuation Done. Owner refused to do one unless u willingly to pay @ 350K. Test market. 2. 4rm flat Val 360K. Owner asking $415k. Seller agent say now HDB is that kind of price. 3. 4rm. Got offer @ 22k COV. Owner reject b'coz owner looking at 50K COV. Quite a number of seller is not serious on their selling. They basically testing market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This property is close to 30 years old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My loan for 10 years is already exceeding $1.2K/mth ! $420K for a 4-rm flat ? Unless one has a guaranteed income for life, I don't know how one can sleep soundly with a capital $$ over your head for the next donkey years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
