xanadu 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2012 Hello RT members,I saw a a PT block quite near to AMK centre, my question is what is the kind of COV that is reasonable and realistic that i should pay if the condition is as below. How do you guys negotiate your COV if the owner ask for a high COV? Build: 1979 floor: 21 to 25 unblock viewrenovation: need to redo 60% at least.location: quite near to AMK MRTYour advice please.

forgotten 1 Report post Posted February 13, 2012 You can offer seller a cov price (lower than asking price) that you are comfortable with. The seller will either reject or accept your offer.There may be zero or a few other buyers who compete with you. Take a look at the recent transacted prices of that area.

xanadu 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2012 yes. In fact i am seeing a few block in AMK and Bishan area. 1 of the seller is asking $90k and the other one is asking $65k. Both condition will need heavy reno and also it is in the LUP. I am not so sure how much is reasonable and i am definitely not going to pay $60k for COV for any of these 2 blocks even if they in the centre as valuation should already factor in the layout, condition, location, high floor etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pat55 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2012 my guide is less than 10% of the evaluation...I think what yaolong mean is COV offered is less than 10% of evaluation.For a flat evaluated at 600k, he will offer not more than 60k for COV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
