very very nice place indeed, but need to drive 2 hours into the plantation area. Its a classy quiet resort place with dock, don't need to see if its for your own stay.
thanks! and congrats on a fine purchase.
yes I was interested as looking for a unit in the east for quite some time liao. Just turned off by the ABSD and since it's not my first loan i need to prepare 40% down, so didn't go ahead. I think it's a good buy, better than JB anyway. at least the environment is guaranteed and MRT is guaranteed too. in 10 yrs time you or your tenant will have option of another MRT line to east coast or town.

I want to be successful !! I don't need food. hehe ^o^
I am not experts like you all, I buy cos
- the project name Coco Palm is nice.
- Walkable to the condo location from Pasir Ris MRT
- All along I like Pasir Ris.
- I also like the resort style concept plus the developer is CDL. The agent say this is the best plot among all the 5 plots CDL develop.
- I also ask a friend to go on a separate visit to give 2nd opinion.
- During the preview, my number was balloted only in the afternoon. I cannot get the unit I want so I settled for a lower floor unit. All 1-bedder was sold out on the Preview Day...
- The most heart pain is the extra 7% stamp duty cos it is my 2nd property after my HDB. No choice must pay.
- The max bank loan tenor allowed is 15 years, I have to bear in mind that the loan instalment will definitely be higher than the rental so I must top up every month..(so job security comes in) + all the taxes...
- My hubby no interest in property, otherwise can share to get a 2-bedder...
After buying this, I then realized with the same quantum, I could get a landed property in Malaysia:(...but my friend say SG property is safer...
I join this forum in the hope of knowing more about Malaysian properties from experts like you all...I learn a lot from you all so hopefully some other time I have enough to buy one..

The latest news I know is that ABSD is here to stay. It will become a permanent feature...The speaker says that most likely they will tweak will be the sellers stamp duty...
Buying Malaysian property is another way to go as the loan in certain banks are not so strict.. You all young probably can take more risks than aunties like us..Malaysia is foreign to me as I have not went in for years. My main concern is security there as I heard from Malaysians themselves about the security issues there..

is this MRT line connected to the Thomson Line?
One reason why CDL can sell at lower price was because CDL bought this piece of land years ago at a cheaper rate and of course buyers like us will have shorter lease period ...
stick to singapore properties if unsure, it's safer.

ripple bay smallest unit )same size as CocoP) 418k . 3rd floor. launched a few years ago.
Dear Aunty, for sure ABSD is not a perm feature, but TDSR certainly is. Check these quotes & links out for prelim understanding.
http://www.iras.gov.sg/irasHome/page03a.aspx?id=14342
These new ABSDs and loan rules are significant, but they are temporary. They are being imposed to cool the market now, and will be reviewed in future depending on market conditions.
http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/too-early-to-ease/1280068.html
Mr Menon said the measures introduced to cool Singapore's housing market can be divided into two categories – structural measures such as the total debt servicing ratio which are meant for the long term, and cyclical measures such as loan-to-valuation limits and stamp duties that can be "recalibrated according to market conditions".
Yes, i remember this editorial too. ABSD can be removed when market softens more. However, it should be at least another 2 years. Keep your bullets tightly!
Thanks for pointing it out, kind of mix up the 2...
The agent says those who bought LIVIA (near Coco Palm) 5 years ago, laugh the way to the bank...I still need to save $$ to buy furniture, partially furnished. Hmm..cannot afford any SG property all very expensive...the rest 1 bedder near MRT more expensive + lesser loan +stamp duty+taxes...

I did enquire about projects like D Inspire which has sales packages that suits people with tight cashflow, but a friend who plays KL properties say the units pricey(eg a studio at RM$500k+ before 25%rebate) so I didn't go ahead.
You can only own properties above ground floor i.e. no land or landed properties in Cambodia. Most locals were quite poor and infrastructure was quite bad when I was there 3-4 years ago. Not sure if they can really afford the new properties.
