Alim 1st Gear March 21, 2012 Share March 21, 2012 Anyway, for those complaining about the big balcony, the reason is simple, it is because developers can enjoy a 10% GFA incentive from URA. URA Circular Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily1986 5th Gear March 21, 2012 Share March 21, 2012 (edited) maybe i misused. but i re-read my sentence, context correct wat. your life so cheap meh ? becos of sub prime, value less than loan amt, need to jump so easily if i replace your TOR (term of reference) sub prime with the TOR(s) negative equity or margin call, it makes sense. at least i think thats what you are trying to say la. Singapore banks allowed to process subprime loans meh? Edited March 21, 2012 by Happily1986 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDuck 1st Gear March 21, 2012 Share March 21, 2012 (edited) http://business.asiaone.com/Business/My%2B...321-334814.html 3-bedroom condo unit smaller than a squash court A new condominium in Bukit Batok is one of the smallest 3-bedroom unit to be built in Singapore. Measuring just 635 sq ft, the unit at Natura at Hillview Terrace is smaller than a squash court and slightly bigger than five HDB carpark spaces, reported The Straits Times. A typical three-bedroom apartment is between 1,000 and 1,500 sq ft, said real estate consultants, and it is unheard of for a mass market project here to have three-bedroom units of such a compact size. The development is a joint venture between Roxy-Pacific Holdings and Macly Group, and market watchers say that the developers are setting a trend for shrinking three-bedroom units. Another company's projects, Treescape in Telok Kurau, also features micro three-bedders which start from 603 sq ft. According to The Straits Times, all 32 units have been sold since the project was launch, of which 25 units were sold last month at a median price of $1,401 per sq ft. Compared to Treescape, which is a boutique development, Natura has full condominium facilities with 193 units. Projects director of Macly Group Ken Yeo defended the size of the apartments, saying that the wall can be taken out so open up the living room to be of a bigger space. "That's what we mean by 'efficiently designed'", he said. Mr Yeo added that Macly has not received any complaints that 'Mickey Mouse apartments are not liveable' and noted that all of their previous shoebox projects were sold out within one month of their official launches. Such units are likely to be bought by singles or childless couples who prefer a smaller living space, Mr Yeo reckons. Mr Tan Kok Keong from OrangeTee's head of research and consultancy used Hong Kong as an example on whether such units will be well-received by the public. He told The Straits Times: "If you use Hong Kong as an example, yes it's liveable, but whether it's the kind of quality of life that people can get used to is something we actually won't know until the project is completed."
