      Many years back I read about the news of this shop owner at somewhere near Chinatown decided to terminate his think clothes selling business and preferred to rent out the ground floor shop coz of the high rental the shop can fetch.

              A good fall back plan. Come to think of it, there is this Novena Medical centre if I m not wrong...doctors with own practice are usually quite loaded. I think they will probably buy it instead of renting it hor..


              One year back there were still vacant units and not many people seen there.

              ๐Ÿ˜“ the one I mentioned around Central also...heard of splitting the units or co sharing the unit among tenants...rental expensive tenants can't survive long.

                  No screening done. I accept students with F grades also. But must be patientโ€ฆ only have vacancies when have students grad and slots will be offered to current students and their connections first.

                      But agents these days tell buyers psf based on the built up area too, which is why new owners are furiously \"maxing out\" their permissible size by enclosing exposed ledges or balconies, filling up airwells, adding floors or extending sheltered porch or backyard.

                      In the past, buyers always look at the land area & agents will tell u psf based on tt only.

                      Also because it is easier to BS on built up area, unlike condos and strata houses where the strata area is in the title deeds. There is no precise definition of \"built up\". Even a non-covered carpark can be included in the built up area by unscrupulous agents - after all it is paved or tiled so it is \"built up\", no?

                      No, tiled area must be sheltered I believe, right pirated?

                      Anyway, that reminds me of condo developers trying to max out their GFA by building those large balconies, aircon ledges and planter boxes and charging the buyer for these unusable spaces! I never like large balconies. So dusty...[/quote]Not all sheltered area counted as gfa eg car porch

                      Stair well area is counted once only

                        Recently, I was at Hillview area. The 2 condos, Hillier and Hillview Peak, are in full progress. The former seems to be able to complete earlier than the latter.
