Property - Near NYPS & RGPS

[THC]

Property prices will not fall beyond previous low, even with passing of old guards. I believe it will only happen when macro-economics really falters (depression which causes huge # of expatriates leaving. With receession, it ain’t happening - we witnessed this during yr 08 crisis. Below 1kpsf, probably Duchess Crest (99yrs) but can’t recall whether within 1km of NYPS.

I was considering "The Shelford" when price was 1100psf, for 3 bedrm, will cost ard $1.7m then, now at least $2m. Need to wait for another 2 yrs (I believe) for prices to drop (but will not be lower than 1100psf). Owner will not sell unless prices is really attractive (rental income is not too bad either).

well said, i can imagine parts of bukit timah submerged, causing flood waters to rise knee-high, partially submerging ground-floor buildings and cars and causing untold damage.”. FYI, bukit timah was hit twice (nov 09 and jul 10). Not all properties in bukit timah are premium, there are alot of affordable properties if you know where to find them (below 1K psf).

I think that would be at Upper Bukit Timah - aka Beauty World area?

try mayfair gardens - opposite king albert park. Low psf but that's because it's 99 LH.

The property market will collaspe when an old guard passed on. I believe you can decipher for yourself.

Our reference here is D10 and D11 and within 1km to RGPS and NYPS which are balloting under P2C. Properties in D21 are generally lower in psf as you have quoted.

you don't have to wait, there are point loma, 28 shelford, 19 shelford, adam park condo, shelford green and duneran court within 1100psf for you to consider. All within 1km to elite schools.
those who bought resale units at The Shelford bought at a high, how to sell to you at a low. unless you are lucky to find the first owner of the 3 bedroom unit who bought before 2005 below and 800psf.

The above quoted by many of you is NOT my comment

somebody just messed it up

$1100 psf is very reasonable.


Those in east coast and upper serangoon area which I am more familiar with are already that kind of range.
