IMHO, the units in Sengkang are not really that cheap as compared to other suburb estates. Of course they are cheaper than those in matured estates like Toa Payoh lah. In Sengkang, some 5-room prices are already hovering above 400K. The good thing of getting Sengkang units is that they are < 10 years old, pretty new, so you can choose not to do an overhaul and save $ on the renovation part.

I think every estate has its pros and cons. As long as one likes the unit very much, one will just grab it haha!

From the stats, the COVs seem to go crazy after July 2009. Congrats to those who bought your house before July 2009, u save a lot on your COV.

1st quarter 2010's valuation price range will be = 4th quarter 2009's valuation price range + 15K-40K ??

I sincerely hope SG government will build many more houses so that houses remain more affordable to everyone in Singapore!

Many couples like us become bankrupts after the wedding and property purchase. We have no existing house to sell to gather the cash COV component, so we either have to wipe out our whole life savings or to take up personal loan to pay off the COV. Now we have no money to do renovation. We want to have a baby, also no money.
