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

Mrs Kiasu, talk at my home thread… let’s not go off topic here

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.

Only 999 years ... as if you live to a thousand years ... for you 888 years good enuf

Are you cursing me?

For $3-3.5mil I meant. There're some F/H landed of that same amt too. And some fire sales in that range too! :torchme:

Choi! Blessing u 888!

F/H landed $3.5m considered cheap if the land is not less than 1800 sqft, esp if there is at least two storeys on it. These days every one tends to max out on the permissible built up area, with attic as big as a 4 room HDB flat[/quote]
Any reason why the land should be not less than 1800sf? Saw some inter-terrace land slightly smaller asking below 2mio.

U must hv misinterpreted his comment. He didn't say it should not be less than 1800sf.

He's citing it as a condition to qualify his statement that F/H landed at $3.5m is considered cheap

Thanks for the clarification. I thought it is the minimum size to be able to be comfortable. I saw some land at 1200sf even and thought it was too small. Could be too claustrophobic.

So, you are able to improve students with F grades to A grades?

Heheh...no prob

1200sf might require major A&A to build-up to ventilate the bathrooms. Some very old inter-terr have windowless toilets on ground floor, as a result their bathroom doors are not full-height.

Also, the car porch might be too short, or none at all in some cases, such that you have to park along the lane in front of your ppty.

1700sf is a comfortable average. Look at the shape of land too. Odd-shaped like narrow in front but wider at the back, broad but short, or narrow but long like five-foot-way?
