tenyawph Turbocharged May 23, 2016 Author Share May 23, 2016 Looking at GEMS (Toa Payoh) website, the developer is not paying agent's commission. It is using their own sales team. Is the developer passing down the savings to the buyers? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEMS - no agent commission.jpg Is the developer passing down the savings to the buyers? LOL/.. what developer sales team? This is agent lingo for ERA being officially appointed by developer No commission paid by buyer lah... haha another stating the obvious trick to make buyer feel like he is getting a great deal of savings I can't imagine a small developer, PE type of setup firm like Evia to hire a few thousand staff on its payroll to market this GEM 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easily at any point in time now, more than 1 million (top 20% of income earners) have the financial ability to buy at today's prices, just whether they want to or not assuming just 1% of them has the balls to do it now and the other 99% invest enough already or don't dare, that's 10,000 units waiting to be absorbed my own estimate only hor, don't take my word for it, i am not a property analyst 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showster Twincharged May 23, 2016 Share May 23, 2016 It's in reference to buying resale condo. For those sales, usually either or both seller and buyer have to pay agent commission on top of agreed prices. Very very rarely do buyer and seller meet directly and transact, except maybe mortgagee sales. For new sales such as this, the developer pays the agent direct and its factored into the selling price. So based on the selling price and the loan secured, there is no additional comms. Looking at GEMS (Toa Payoh) website, the developer is not paying agent's commission. It is using their own sales team. GEMS - no agent commission.jpg Is the developer passing down the savings to the buyers? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
