Loan amount - RM448k (80% loan)

Calculated using my loan calculator.
congrats for landing the decision. next big milestone: key collection. That's icing to a cake.
it was open for a bit and then they closed it again. but according to super325. it should be fully operational really soon.
Hi Crystal, thanks for asking. I LOVE the space in the house.... but I don't like cleaning it.... hehehe... spent 3 weekends in HH cleaning and moving my stuff; half a lorry-load at S$400 and 3 times moving smaller stuff using my car, fully-loaded. Yesterday was the last load in the car, no problems with MY customs even though they saw an old stand fan, iron, etc.
Haven't had a chance to enjoy the living yet because I don't have curtains, tables or chairs in the house; just our sofa set, TV and bed. So, will spend another month unpacking the stuff and buying some basic furniture. One thing good as shared by other forummers is that Tesco accepts SGD and their rate is unusually higher than the money changer. e.g. on Sat, the rate was 2.44 even though it was showing as 2.43 on www.xe.com.
One good eatery that I like (dunno if anyone has shared it on the forum) is the steamboat/bbq restaurant next to the "famous" money-changer; only RM22.90 for a lot of food and the soups taste good too. There's also a mobile asam laksa stall (not the usual curry laksa found in SG) that operates together with cendol/rojak/ice-kacang seller. They sell yam cake too... very nice.

gotta practice patience abit for the subsequent practs advanced theory and then the test itself. All the best for it! If your schedule allows you can cram them in, I finished mine in BBDC within 3 months from registration to taking the license (I had my basic passed previously). though you might be looking at a ginormous asking price for a new car afterwards with the COE implosion. Or the worry about flooded cars in the 2nd hand market... And then insurance for L-plate is not cheap.
I also don't advice new drivers to use the woodlands/CIQ in peak hour traffic. It can get nasty for the driver really quickly and easily i have seen too many being tail ended or side swiped by countless motorbikes etc. Need to let you know about the realities to car ownership and commute though get a good one and you'll be laughing for a long time.

Read this news today on potential tough times for Singapore property market in the next 3 years:
http://www.propertyguru.com.sg/prop...11/31734/bleak-outlook-for-singapore-property
Although I am not a believer in these bank analysts, some of the points in this article makes sense. I am wondering what impact this possible correction in Singapore will have in Iskandar:
1) Will it be better as more Singaporeans will go towards Iskandar, given the affordability during hard times and the prospects of catching a falling knife by buying in Singapore?
2) Or will this be bad news for Iskandar as well, as most folks will wait for prices to correct in Singapore, rather than buy in Iskandar?
3) It will not matter as many of us, as we see on this forum, are just looking for a different quality of life, more openness, fresh air etc, and the Singapore dynamics will not really make a difference.

So there are 2 rules here? One for locals and one for foreigner? Does not make sense...another flip flop policy? Let me check with the banker Bros, keep you all updated.
u r right bro - loan agreement....but still have to pay the fees...
For this Encrop project, heard they engaged HSR to market for them as they do not have sales office in MY.
Maybe at this high price, they can test the SG market and at the same time create awareness.
If the response is good, the next tower 2 will be placed at higher price.
Let's see.
wow bro, you really look very far ahead - i buy for my retirement...you buy is for your parents retirement....how i wish my children can do that for me!!
Boats rise and fall with tide...
Yep, but point number 3 is really al that matters to many of us.
Thanks - will definitely look out for the signs tomorrow...
Hi Absolut:
I only saw your entry when i was scrolling all the way back. Sorry that the new users generally don't get their messages approved so it'll take sometime to appear and may be missed by the general board users. Firstly, sorry to hear that the tropika deal fell through, if you're still interested in LF like you have indicated can visit the sales office and let them show you around (dunno whether you've come here to see the place since september). I think they should roughly know who wants to sell off their units in LF (though at this point in time I don't think there're much on the re-sale market) and can link you up. I hope you find your dream home wherever it is in time to come!
