as long as 1 room can put 1 bed, consider 1 bedroom right?

 

Is there any governing rule/law on the size and shape of bedroom?

If you heng, your neighbors are all wealthy foreign investors - buy and never rent out . You literally occupied the entire floor to yourself. Seems more common these days.

Renting out is not always a good thing ... Sometimes the tenant abuse the place ... & it can be costly to renovate the place again ... If you don't need the money, keeping it empty is better ... [nod]

Tampines EC penthouse to sell at $2m

 

The $2m price tag of a 'presidential suite' penthouse apartment in Tampines has caused much debate as netizens question whether the price is justified. -AsiaOne

 

THE monster 4,349 sq ft "presidential suite" at an executive condominium (EC) project in Tampines will be the first EC unit to eclipse the $2 million mark if sold at its launch this weekend.

 

The Straits Times understands that the penthouse unit at 514-unit CityLife @ Tampines, which comes with a roof terrace of about 1,600 sq ft, will be priced at about $2.05 million - or $470 per sq ft (psf).

 

The unit price rises to $744 psf if only liveable space is counted.

 

If sold, the overall price will set a new record for an EC - the latest in a string of sky-high prices that have raised eyebrows and led to a raging debate on whether buyers of such expensive ECs should be entitled to Housing Board grants.

There is never a more difficult place in the world to buy a house and a car. So many hoops to jump over, so many papers to sign, so many things to consider. Got money also stress.. :blink:
