Would I actually buy Narra Residences? šŸ‘€

Here are 5 reasons I wouldnā€™tā€¦ and No. 4 has nothing to do with property.

A $2.18m HDB headline sounds dramatic. But it wasnā€™t a $2.18m transaction.

It was an asking price for a very unusual 1,465 sq ft jumbo flat created from two adjoining 3-room units.

HDB said nearby comparable 3-room transactions ranged around $673kā€“$771k, and the original asking price was over 40% above twice the upper end of that range. HDB has now said it is reviewing the Conversion Scheme.

For buyers, the lesson is bigger than this one listing:
asking price, valuation and eventual transaction price are three different things.

Iā€™ve prepared a Jumbo HDB Buyer Check Sheet. DM JUMBO for a copy.

If you had a $2.5M condo budget today, would you buy a bigger resale unit or a smaller New Launch?

More sqft and lower PSF can look like the obvious better dealā€”but thatā€™s only part of the comparison.

I would also look at usable layout, renovation, project age, future supply, buyer pool and Exit Strategy.

Neither option is automatically better.

Iā€™ve put together a FREE New Launch vs Resale Condo Comparison Sheet to make the comparison easier.

Lucerne Grandā€™s showflat preview starts TODAY, 18 September.

The 570-unit development is directly linked to Lakeside MRT and includes Lucerne Galleria with a supermarket plus F&B and retail offerings.

Indicative starting prices include:

šŸ  2BR 624 sqft ā€” $1.498M
šŸ  3BR 883 sqft ā€” $1.988M
šŸ  4BR Premium 1,152 sqft ā€” $2.788M

Instead of looking only at the headline PSF, Iā€™d look at the actual layouts, stacks, Entry Price and how the unit fits your own plans.

Interest rates have started moving up again ā€” the Fed just raised its policy rate by 0.25%.

Does that mean Singapore mortgage rates will immediately follow? No.

But for property buyers, it raises an interesting question:

If borrowing costs are still much lower than the earlier peak, should you start looking now or continue waiting for an even lower rate?

Thereā€™s no universal answer.

The property, price, affordability and your financial buffer matter more than trying to perfectly predict the interest-rate cycle.

Your mortgage rate may now be lower than what your CPF OA earns.

So should you stop using CPF and start paying your mortgage with cash?

Not necessarily.

The better question is how to balance your mortgage rate, CPF growth, cash liquidity and future property plans.

Sometimes a lower interest rate shouldnā€™t just change your monthly instalment. It should change the questions youā€™re asking.

Same area. 37% higher land cost. šŸ‘€

Thomson Reserveā€™s land cost is around $1,178 psf ppr, while the latest Lorong Puntong GLS top bid came in at $1,612 psf ppr ā€” a difference of $434 psf ppr.

Does that automatically mean Thomson Reserve will be ā€œcheapā€? No. But with its preview coming up, this new land-cost benchmark is definitely something buyers should pay attention to.

Land cost is a clue, not the answer. The real question is whether the eventual entry price makes sense.

Would you look at Thomson Reserve now, or wait for Lorong Puntong? šŸ‘‡

A 1,001 sqft 3BR Premium from ~$2.3M, nearby Lentor Modern 3BR resales averaging around $2.4M, while a future Lentor Central site was acquired at $1,278 psf ppr.

Existing resale benchmark behind me. Higher land cost ahead of me. šŸ“ˆ

Would you enter now or wait for the next Lentor launch? Comment below. šŸ‘‡

Your home may be fully paid, but does it still fit the life youā€™re living today?

Rightsizing isnā€™t automatically about giving something up. Sometimes itā€™s about deciding how much space, cost and capital you actually need in your next stage of life.

Would you pay $2,500 PSF when a resale condo nearby is $2,000 PSF?

Before saying ā€œnoā€, compare the total quantum, usable space, renovation, lease and future buyer pool. Sometimes the lower PSF isnā€™t actually the cheaper purchase.
