Azzurro 1st Gear September 1, 2014 Share September 1, 2014 I believe it would be difficult if you want to choose any level higher than 4. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atonchia Supersonic September 1, 2014 Share September 1, 2014 Maybe left the unit at 2nd floor, facing the compactor. May not be bad, sometimes there are units left untouched. a unit 2 floor below me is still unoccupied after 3 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky2007 Turbocharged September 1, 2014 Share September 1, 2014 In 2002.. I was something like 700 for 300 units for ponggol 4 room.. So I went to buy 5 room in mature estate in east side.. After my sales completed, HDB informed me that I can go n select flat.. That's so many giving up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oleandero 5th Gear September 2, 2014 Share September 2, 2014 check the online site for the available flats left before going down. if theres nothing that you like or you think u can live with, then bo bian and give up this chance. iirc. my first bto Q was 900+ even with the increased chance cos i was balloting for new flat near my parents place. bao jiak nothing good left so i didnt bother turning up at all. 2nd bto got 70+. thought it was damn good but still not good enough >< the blocks with the better river/reservoir views were all taken. in the end managed to get a high unit facing courtyard. its all about luck!! good luck to you bro! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShepherdPie 5th Gear September 2, 2014 Share September 2, 2014 (edited) no low floor.. < 5 good times , bad times.. they are hard to sell off.. and noisy. 1) from the void deck 2) from the rubbish 3) pipes.. imagine.. the whole night wish-washy coming from the toilet. and dirty 1) ash / paper from the higher flr 2) pest invasion will be earlier than other flrs.

Mrmilktooth Supercharged September 2, 2014 Share September 2, 2014 actually if you are the majority race.. your chances wil be greatly reduced.. due to quota imposed by gahmen.. but no harm just waiting loh.. always have chance.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktglfc Hypersonic September 2, 2014 Share September 2, 2014 Just go there and see see... you never know those infront of you may have opt out and may not choose some units... I am sure there will be units left for you to choose, though they may not be of optimum units... but, no harm just see see. Anyway, a house is a lifetime commitment, or at least MOP of 5 years commitment, so good to consider thoroughly, before making a decision. Good Luck, Bro :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVT Supercharged September 2, 2014 Share September 2, 2014 It is still early to tell.... Don't give up yet until the last 3 days of your selection date, you go into HDB website and view which units are left. At that time you can clearly know "what would be left for YOU to choose" !!

13177 Hypersonic September 2, 2014 Share September 2, 2014 Guess confirmed you will be able to select a flat cause confirmed there are people give up. But if you want nice nice facing or high floor, then maybe difficult. But still depends on your luck, maybe there are many people give up on their selection of flat, then you will have more choice on your appointment day.

Ichibawa 5th Gear September 2, 2014 Share September 2, 2014 I did mine in 2008 my queue number is 868 with 686 units. I still get something on the 7th floor. It is still possible to get higher floors but location is also another thing for one to ponder. Anyway with that queue number I think you still can get decent units. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
