Terrain1976 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) Welcome to t-blog!! Haha.. you finally did start a blog here. Oh, you were looking at Yishun area? Mine is at Khatib area. Andrew also quoted you about 30% higher? So you finally got a quote from Lina? How do you find your interaction with her? She sms'ed me when I was overseas to inform me that she will be out of country for a few days (in case I look for her). Just got back late last night so most likely will take a few days break before I start my "reno-research" again. Maybe can you also PM me your "abt there" contractor too? Thinking of looking at another quotation before finalizing the contractor. Thanks! Welcome back Renotm!! PM sentYes.. All these while i have been targetting Yishun resale as i find the location(those near to mrt) very good and price(valuation)is within my range loh.. Been viewing YIshun area for about 10 houses but COV is ridicularly high like crazy even for those houses which are not even 80% nicely done up!!About a week later, i noticed that my current house is advertised and i got it immediately after viewing the house. The house was not in very fantastic condition but i do feels good while inside the house. My first viewing in Pasir ris area and i got it. Yuan Fen bah i guess..
