You are talking about resale 3rms right? Yup more than S$320K...in some estate reaching S$450K even...

charlize SG

Looks like prices will not drop any more.

Some people must be laughing all the way to the bank.

And some crying themselves to sleep every night.

the one who laughs to the bank sold their place.

the one who cries missed the chance to buy a place.

in both cases, they don't have a place. .

People sold HDB laugh to the bank. Then, rejoin queue to buy HDB, sell and laugh again. Then children grow up, split and start cycle again and laugh to the bank. The laughing will stop once the Ponzi scheme unravels. Question is when??????

charlize SG

Hdb is afforable lah.

Not so long ago, they have the levy thing.

Buy second time direct from HDB n u have to pay levy.

Something like 30 to 40% of the new flat or old flat (if I am not wrong)

Is this levy thing still one? anyone?

Still have levy.

But the rules are so damn confusing.

Why are there so many s-u-c-kers out there paying sky high COVs for HDBs? Where are these s-u-c-kers coming from?

To answer this question, I suggest you go for Economics class.

Demand and supply.

eagle SG

Minister Khaw said the high COVs are not due to PRs, but mostly locals.

Which means imbalance of demand and supply as he has noted correctly, and what most Singaporeans had already known.

So who is to blame for the imbalance of demand and supply? The question is, as a stat board, they had taken a reactive approach instead of a proactive approach. Why?

Obviously someone did wrong somewhere.

So you see, education is bad for PAP.

上下交争利而国危矣

这里，我们不禁想起了孟子见梁惠王时“上下交争利而国危矣”（《孟子·梁惠王上》）的警告。孟子见梁惠王，王曰：“叟！不远千里而来，亦将有以利吾国乎？”孟子对曰：“王！何必曰利？亦有仁义而已矣。王曰‘何以利吾国？’大夫曰‘何以利吾家？’士庶人曰‘何以利吾身？’上下交争利而国危矣。万乘之国，弑其君者，必千乘之家；千乘之国，弑其君者，必百乘之家。万取千焉，千取百焉，不为不多矣。苟为后义而先利，不夺不餍。未有仁而遗其亲者也，未有义而　后其　君者也。王亦曰仁义而已矣，何必曰利？”孟子进见梁惠王。惠王说：“老先生，您不以千里为远到来，将有利于我国吗？”孟子答道：“大王，何必说利呢？仅有仁义就够了。大王关心‘如何使我国有利’，大夫关注‘如何使我家有利’，士人平民则看重‘如何使我自己有利’，上上下下相互争利，国家就危险了。万乘之国，弑其　国　君的，必定是有千乘车的大夫；千乘之国，弑其　国　君的，必定是有百乘车的大夫。万乘之国大夫就据有千乘车，千乘之国大夫就据有百乘车这样的事，不算不多呀！如果把义置后而争利在先，不争利是不满足的。没有讲仁而弃其亲的，没有讲义以君为后的。大王仅讲仁义就行了，何必谈利呢？以利为利，即以利为目标，那么上下交争利，国危矣！以义为利，即以义为目标，方为长治久安之道。

All HDB dwellers are actually RENTING from HDB.

A long term rental is also call a lease.

HDB is 99 year leasehold , means at the end of 99 year you return the unit to HDB.

Leaseholders do not own the property, they only own the lease.

When you "resell", you are reselling the remainder of the lease.

Understand ? Now wake up from your own a HDB dream.
