Just asking nia... I did ask about Volt Corporation many months back. Was told no plans to release yet. Wahh... it's been almost 3 years liao. The developer WCT is still trying to sell their empty office lots at 1 Medini.

D'Inspire is by KSL. I thought they are quite big developer....

What about D'Inspire condo nearby in Bt Indah also. Is it good or doing well?

Anyone knows if iMedini Walk by Tang Group (Singapore company!) has started construction? It's supposed to be quite close to Legoland but I don't remember seeing its construction. From the Medini plan that I see, there are also supposed to be IOI Medini, Prive Medini, Park Residences, Volt...

Maybe many of the Johor properties will slowly become old folks home. :) Many Singaporeans say want to retire there mah....

Dunno how much you can trust the Johor prince. He can say whatever he wants. But ultimately, the Iskandar plan has its own course of action to take. Things can also be slowed down, cancelled or be delayed. If the traffic problem can't be solved, it's problematic for Singaporeans to consider...

Aiyoh... :(

Like xebay11 with his rich dad? Haha... I don't mind if we can't make big money from our HDB flats. But the govt got to at least control the pricing better so that it matches the kind of (pathetic) salaries most commoners are earning now.

Ya. I noticed that too. Homogenous tiles for living rooms. Wood laminates for bedrooms. Standard. Toilets same tiles also. Still charged RM800 psf!!

Actually, even among different developers, their condo projects are also squeezed into a small plot. Look at this picture of condos in Medini. There are at least 5 different projects here by 4 developers. They are all so close to one another. Very claustrophobic feeling. There is so much land...

Ya. That's why I said unless one downgrades (buy smaller sized flat or move to the outlying areas in SG), all those "profits" mean nothing as newer flats cost a lot more than what those profits can cover. Don't need to even talk about buying the crazy, expensive condos in SG. If one thinks hard...

I even unluckier than you lor.... I still have years to pay off my HDB flat which I am living in and not making rental profits like you. :( I bought it after 2005 where prices all rocketed up by a lot. Some more you got big house in Johor to sleep in, and a condo in future as another holiday...

Oh... sounds like you bought it resale. So the price back then might have gone up already. Also because it's rather old liao....

Ya, makes sense only if one downgrades. Singapore properties are misleading in a certain sense. Although many buyers seem to have made good money even from their flats, the high property prices of today will cause them to lose all that profits once they buy a new home. Many agents use cunning...

They can't or won't move away because despite the seemingly huge gain in profits, they must still find another place in SG to live in. And property prices elsewhere have risen too much in recent times. So while an owner may gain $300k - $20k = $280k, if he upgrades to another flat that costs...

Oh ya, I heard about that too. But if like UsernameX said, the owners are not making any loss, then they might have to pay for the RGPT, which I think is quite high in the 1st year? They also have to take into account any interest paid to bank so far (if they took loan). If they are foreigner...

I'm surprised. Did you check the latest price your flat can fetch? Without going into details, maybe yours is at some far flung area in SG? But at least it's still profits and you got it at a manageable price. Many young workers who bought after 2005 had it tough. Prices shot up. No thanks to...

Ya... pretty standard. Easy I think. No need to crack heads to design. Even the newer HDB BTO flats also the same. A lot of white exterior. Boring. I swear many look almost the same!

That's terrible. What is ICA doing. If they know the situation has been like that, shouldn't they open more counters? They should encourage more to live in Johor to ease the human congestion and high property prices in SG! Does it make sense for you to travel via the 2nd link at Tuas side? Less...
