Galantspeedz Turbocharged January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 World of difference lor. A place for elite to live and shop and a tourist trap. that's the perception.... but if you think about it, it actually has more inconveniences than what a columbarium brings Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kac 4th Gear January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 that's the perception.... but if you think about it, it actually has more inconveniences than what a columbarium brings And on a prolonged basis too.

Galantspeedz Turbocharged January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 i rather leave in Seng Kang than Orchard Rd.....but i will surely rent out the space in Orchard....simple economics! not that simple actually.... because the cost of the place in orchard is higher so though rental is higher... percentage wise may be lower.... possibly sengkang may have higher returns.... hehe And on a prolonged basis too. But people in EDMW are crying bloody murder over it.. I guess anyone will if it hurts their 财路... what 财路 sia?? HDB is now a 财路? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackyv Turbocharged January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 I think there will be no end to it, if hdb refunds them. What's next, demand for priority queue cos they had lost their turn in the one at Fernvale? it will never happen,if this round can refund and set a precedent, in future, people can ask for it when they dont like the color of a flat.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sosaria Twincharged January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 Sengkang area flats have quite low resale value because the development of the area is not yet complete. It's just like pasir ris in the early 90s... Give another 20 yrs, things will pick up in sengkang. For now i think those complaining residents have rather short-term plan to sell quick as they can.

Vega Turbocharged January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 if the columbarium is managed by private entity and is not profitable, will they start to charge more or close shop, ask u bring urn back home and find other columbarium to put? or can put outside the house like flower pots. I am sure no other neighbor dare to anyhow put things to block your walk way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icedbs Turbocharged January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 (edited) Really nonsense. When nearby has crematorium, columbarium, they ask HDB for refund. But when nearby has a new shopping mall, should HDB ask them to top up their house prices? Really self-centered view of things and a very mercenary mentality. People have forgotten that the primary purpose of having a home is to have a shelter over our heads and not about whether it makes good money or not. Ask those living in Sin Ming and Bishan area, did their house value drop? Last I check, those areas are still as high as ever.
