Why HDB prices are like bungalows prices in Australia ?
Since housing is a necessity why so expensive? I
just dun understand.....people get married, apply for HDB then get
themselves into debts for the next 30 years? How to live a happy
life like this? Will our children be able to buy their own house
next time??
exactly. there should be some alternatives for people who do not
wish to spend that much on housing.
in the US, if you don't want to buy an inner-city apartment, you
can buy a house in the suburbs. if you still find it too expensive,
you can move to a farm, a cottage. worse come to worse, a
trailer.
in singapore, if you can't afford private property, you settle
for hdb flat. if you cannot afford hdb but meet certain
requirements, you can rent a flat from government.
but if you don't meet any of these requirements, you are
screwed.
