Lessons From The Id Selection Process

[zhiz 4]

I have also been through the same process and finally just confirm my ID.

Just to share my experience, you can read a lot of good review of certain ID in this forum. But please don't trust all on what you have read in the forum. Some ID has controlled over the forum and deleted those negative feedback on his company.

From my experience, those ID that become popular or hot, their service standard will drop. Unless you show that you are interested to sign up with them, they may not entertain you too much and their response will be slow. So if you are interested to engage hot ID from the forum, you need to have patience and start early, as they take longer time to response to you or you may need to chase them.

You are very right. There are lots of fake nicks around to promote own business.

To me an ID is no longer good if they take longer time to respond, cos it really defeats the purpose...finding a good but busy ID. Too busy means no good for your reno

hi zhiz,

can you pm me also your selected id? I am experiencing the same tedious process presently. you suggestion is very welcome.

I will pm you.

It has been good so far as she is a lady and can attend to my wife's request easily cos she is more emphatic. I cannot imagine if its a male ID handling my wife demands. haha

I feel that its impt for everyone to view flats done by the ID before, and observe not only the reno works done but the relationship between the customer and ID. So request to view for previous completed units and perhaps those layout that are similar to your place.

Hi all

Just thought I would share my ID selection process, which is probably like everyone else.

Come to renotalk, read all the thread, see nice pics or comments and then get the ID contact through pm and meet up with ID. Meet one not enough, meet more and more and more. Tire out cos talk so much and long each time. Realise all quotes the same. This item more ex, that item more ex. Basically cancel out. Also its all undiscounted pricing.

I went through this and because I had time to spare, i give up and stop totally.

2 month later, I visit a friend new renovated home. They went through the same process and was so tired they just choose the last one which was the cheapest. Turn out very jialat, they had to keep reminding the ID to do the retifications etc. They told me they would rather just had paid the normal market price to have a peace of mind rather than doing the chasing all the time. Even had to draw out time schedule for the ID.

Then one week later visit another friend house. Her experience totally different. Totally relaxed and happy and everytime they visited their place, it was a pleasant feeling or something more that was done. Any problems were surely rectified. ID go house to check daily to ensure all is ok. They totally trusted their ID as well because she was reliable. Handover on schedule as well. She only recommended to me after her reno was completed to ensure that whoever she recommended was truely recommendable.

So after the months of meeting different ID etc, I just decided to go for my friend ID without much consideration or even quote comparison.

Next week is my reno. The past few weeks experiences has been good, through design concept, the tiles selection, site visit.

I guess no matter how many ID we meet, we will now know how good, reliable, meticulous an ID is unless its a direct referral from a friend. Because you cannot really find out all about this until after you sign on the dotted line.

So its impt to have good friends that recommend you only good ID that they have experienced with.

ps: its quite interesting to meet a few ID to get ideas and roughly understand the process and things to consider. but dun be addicted to it as you will burn out.

Hi, can u share with me as well? TIA
