Strata landed has more controls, you dont individually own the plot your house is on, its collectively owned, like condos. hence you cant rebuild, and making structural changes requires approval. I have lived in strata landed in SG and didnt like it as there's less privacy also and disagreements...

Yes because its a special zone and leasehold. That is why I believe even if they implement the new policy abt foreigners not being allowed to buy from locals, Medini likely to be exempted.

Try calling the Distinctive office and speaking to Ai Li. They are ok, I heard from them recently like 2 days back. I am not affected by the state consent as I am Malaysian.

They are learning from their SG brothers and becoming 'kiam' with space;). Also its the same trick, quantum sounds affordable. Over here , now 2 bedrooms are going at what used to be studio size and 3 bedrooms are going at 2 bedder sizes( 9XXsqft)even in questionable heartland locations. Such...

Possibly the 'own stay' demand will remain. SPRs I suspect may go back to their home towns unless they want to live near their kids and/or have a Singaporean spouse. But Singaporeans may still be buying for retirement as they dont want to be stuck on a tiny island with 7M and high cost of...

Even now there are Bumi lots and Other lots. Local quota and International Quota. No such thing as International lots, not the way certain units are tagged as bumi lots. Its just a quota that developers have to follow unless they get a waiver or its in a special zone. On resale market now there...

Tks. My husband is also keen on KDK. Cheaper in JB I guess.Our master is evry big, bigger than most living rooms. So we will need a fan. I take your point abt samller rooms, but my family members are quiet used to having a fan so likely we'll install smaller ones.

Am looking for fans. I notice Fanco and Elmark are popular in MY. Any recommendations?Also, I presume its cheaper in MY then SG? Would appreciate any info of lobangs.

Thanks for the feedback. Sounds good.

Whole market will be affected as new projects wont be sold out if locals boycott.And they will boycott unless developers give them huge discounts to entice them to buy, this will dampen overall market.If discounts arent given, I doubt foreigners will wantt o occupy estates that are like ghost...

Any predictions on whether market is going to sink if all this comes into effect? Will there be an exodus to buy or sell before year's end? The new article in Straits Times yesterday predicted more will buy before Jan to esccape the additional 5% tax. but I am wondering if investors will want to...

Re: The Epic :) It wont be easy for foreigners to sell their properties for profit as it has been mentioned they may not allow sale of first property or approval must be sought, this will slow down process. Am sure more curbs will come along to prevent foreigners from flipping for easy...

Re: The Epic :) I am wondering if LH as in Medini will be spared if they implement new rules. As it is,in Medini there is no quota for foreign buyers as its a special zone and certain restruictions have been lifted including minimum purchase price, foreign buyers can buy units below 500K...

We are not in most of the time, just there 2 or 3 times a month .That's why we thought ADT may be good as they can help us monitor. But I agree it is kinda pricey.Btw, am also thinking of installing griils. I know Singaporeans tend to feel its optional but as a Malaysian, I feel safer. All...

Any feedback on ADT alarm system and service? Its $75 monthly for maintenance and monitoring and abt 5K for semi-d, they dont do autogate though.

Re: The Epic :) On our Mediacorp news last night no. 2 was mentioned, so I think that is more or less confirmed. But nothing was said about the rest so we will have to wait and see.
