Singapore properties are cheap.

[Calbear]

If you look at BTO, you can get a 3 room flat for $100k plus and a 5 room flat for $300k plus.

For resale HDB, prices are higher as expected because the BTOs are heavily subsidized.

Why are people complaining? If their HDB prices are high, isn't that good? The bought cheap during BTO and now after MOP prices are high. So why complain?

Even landed property in Jurong selling at $1.6m. If you and your parents sell your HDB flats, combine your funds, you and your family can stay in a big 3 storey house with garden for only $1.6m.

You are really THE authority on property prices in Singapore.

Dunno why everytime see threads saying jurong properties are good. Last time i quit my job because everyday the car have a layer of dust and sometimes soot i think from the discharge by the power station.

I have done my analysis, I have concluded that the best price upside vs cost properties are those properties in Jurong because with the Jurong Lake District CBD, prices there will surge. If you have a Queenstown HDB, I suggest you sell it for $1m and buy a 5 room HDB in Jurong West at $500k.

The best upside vs cost property in the Jurong Lake District area is the 3000 sqft, 3 storey big terrace house in Jurong. These terrace houses selling at only $1.6m, whereas for 1.6m, you get a small Mickey mouse studio unit in Orchard.

For your information.

Where are those landed property? some examples.. Is it freehold or just 99lh

Really don't understand why people are complaining about White Paper...play stocks, invest, buy one condo unit with facilities, can stay in estate and let kids play within the condo compound. Go out only for essential stuff.....no need to squeeze with the millions. Wha'st so difficult?

shihhhhh.... can u don't teach those fooools???? shiao liao lah....if everyone don't sell, price how to come down??? how am i going to get my 3rd one?? all my cpf stuck there!!!

LOL. I'm not scared at all as my properties are all almost fully paid. In fact, I welcome the cooling measures as this means we have avoided a bubble. Prices will stabilize in general (but in certain areas like JLD, prices will surge higher). Also, we have avoided an oversupply from many wannabe investors who don't have the ability to hold for the long term.

I will not sell because with the cooling measures, it will be more difficult to buy another property. You will need a bigger cash downpayment and your loan period will be much, much shorter. Stupid to sell. Better to keep for the long term.

IMHO, the one next to west gate is better as it is in the Jurong Lake District. It is near the JE MRT station, JEM, JCube, new hospital, etc. I think they will sell at least $1300 psf for the larger units and at least $1600 psf for the one bedroom units.

[oops]

Jurong Gateway is a complete district with MORE n NEW amenities than clementi town. MAY 2013 is the boom year with the opening of JEM on the way DEC opening of Westgate n Ng Teng Fong hospital 2014.
