Princess Cove R&F

[RedsYNWA]

How about the initial buyers?
I thought that the price was about 1000+ psf.

If that's the case then it's tough for the buyers the first phase

Actually the facing of this project can be quite tricky. Depending on the final alignment of the RTS, some units could be v v close to the RTS track. But yet the RTS is at least 800m away (according to a brochure), i.e. residents may well have a noisy facing but not the convenience of walking to the RTS.

My advice for would-be buyers is to wait till the RTS alignment is finalised, before deciding which unit to buy (though I feel it is at a central location, with quite gd landscaping & materials).

6% discount from SPA price is the norm ahhh..

I am curious on the current SPA price list of all the remaining units released...
Anyone can get and share it here?

Ask your agent lar. I will check with mine.

Yeah, I know what you mean if the RTS is overhead and runs along the road on Hotel Bluewave side. Lucky the window is double glazed and therefore mostly sound proof. Better to but those units facing the sky garden at least.

Checked with my agent. They priced those in. None of those unit that facing the swimming pool or straits view is discounted. As mentioned, about 20units with bad facing are discounted, probably those potentially facing the RTS track!

No joke facing the RTS track. Noise, privacy issues etc. For both SG and MY, it is prudent to spend more money now to get the track underground. We are talking about valuable seaview lands after all for both SG & MY...... Not sure if MY Govt's Liow Tiong Lai & our Lui Stuck You are listening....

It seems that the best is probably Suasana (service apartment, mall, hotel), very well located just opp Komtar, City Square annd no track noise and definitely about 300 to 400 mtrs to RTS possibly thru linkbridges.

Heard it is about 1300 psf for Suasana now..

It will be a big slap in someone's face if the RTS doesn't materialize within walking distance. But then again. If I had paid ridiculous amt of money to buy a unit here I sure wouldn't want gawkers looking through my windows every 5 mins. As it is its so noisy n polluted living next to an old railway track n a causeway which is jam 24/7

I think u are right as I last heard 1250 about 9 months ago. Looks like my unit should cross 1400 when TOP sometime 2016/2017

Hi Angmokio, how is the quality of the fittings compared with PC? Do you have photos of the showrooms?

Based on my understanding, there wasnt any showroom.
I bought more than a year ago the larger unit, not studio or the mid type. The location impressed me alot knowingly the major transformation on jalan wong ah fook to a mini river, canal.
Lets just say, a minor done up on the unit 30k myr plus furnishings should be ok.
Most likely my unit will sell upon TOP.

yes, there's a big transformation and already started on the river called sungei segget which is in parallel of jalan wong ah fook. and already the buses are less now as diverted to elsewhere and next will be i think from 4 lanes to 3 lanes.

My agent replied that other than foreigners can buy R&F below $1 Million, there are no other changes..
He is trying to get a hold of current price list for me to take a look...

Good buy !!
I would have bought Susana if I known about it ..

I only knew about R&F from the TV advertisements in SG and I immediately went down to take a look the next day..
And I made up my mind to buy the next day..

Buying as exit strategy..
As I mentioned in other forums, it is desperation of a viable exit strategy that drives me to buy R&F..

Someone just setup a fb page for R&F Princess Cove Community..

Owners, pls go ahead and join in for discussion..

To be frank... suasana lost out if compare to PC. There are a few clear disadvantages on suasana compare to pc. That jln wong ah fook is an over crowded area with cars ..buses and people....even more buses will be there later. It has no sea view. Jln wong ah fook is a well known red light area especially around the suasana area. There are really nothing new there except for some minor changes and clean up on the mini river at jln wong ah fook. Its looks like a drain to me actually. The whole area is just too mature.
