foga SG according to my friend, if u dun mind jalan membina get an agent to source for u blk 29 havelock road get a unit there first cause next year en bloc for that block
red_amoeba SG no lah. if so atas, might as well send the kid overseas to elite / ivy league school, like that sure mix with the creme of the crop. but even he comes back, he'll have to mix & interact with HDB kids like me haha...
Daydreamzer SG really?!!! *big-eyed*... have they actually gone for any balloting or selection at hdb office yet? Me quite keen leh... getting excited liao... *jajajaja*....
Daydreamzer SG definitely... also, the construction, quality and design of condos not as gd as before... save for some really really ex$$$ ones... like those on grange road etc... wif tat price for condos, i can easily afford more accessories for my home -- to dress it up juz the way i like it... ^yeah...
Wanda SG So how? Make sure you get the right bunch of flowers, okie? Diamond ring optional lah.... LOLs...
foga SG that i dun know liao but my parent's flat should be due for en bloc too. afterall, it has been upgrade more than 11 years already. a couple of block infornt of our alreday torn down many years ago, the block next to mine en bloc by 07 end leave my block standing quite funny
foga SG for jalan membina that site, seems like quite a few blocks. and abt 5 minutes walk to tiong bahru mrt let me check with my friend tomolo abt their enbloc
Daydreamzer SG really.. ллÄã... anyway, juz got confirmation from hdb tat the replacements flats at jalan membina will only be ready by end 2007... so by the time, they decide to go for balloting... wow... quite long time siah... see how lah... mayb i will kena toto tis thur... then i need not worry abt location at all... *yeah*
Daydreamzer SG din know tat forums cant support chinese text... anyway, juz wanna thank you for all ur assistance wif the info... ^,^
foga SG goodie goodie we went to check out the bukit merah block althou the show flat closed liao but the location damn solid. a stone throw away from redhill mrt, have 7-11, clinics, market, hawker centre nearby
BufPuf SG i love the location but like what i told fog-shu it might be quite straining on our finances to actually get the house. after we calculate, we still need to take about $100+ out per month although it is not a big amt, but our CPF will be wiped clean and next time no $$ for our kids to go school by CPF. Must pay all in cash
foga SG lolz pay and pay gov is like that one hdb , no longer building afforable homes for singaporeans.
shinta SG cos earlier his parents wanted us to buy the 3 room next door cos their blk might get en bloc... then his sister in law say dun... cos we might not get any compensation at all.
choco B SG What exactly is this HDB enbloc? Doesn't work the same way as private property right? What do hdb houseowners stand to gain if they kena enbloc? As far as I know they're given a few choices for relocation, I've never heard of any cash payouts... correct me if I'm wrong?
shinta SG the govt will compensate u... er... say ur current unit is worth 190k valuation... and ur new unit is 250k so u just need to pay 60k for the new one.. they offset for u as for the old folks who decided to move in with their kids... i'm not sure
