Cars08 1st Gear August 8, 2012 Share August 8, 2012 (edited) I thought after the hoo haa of the 800k DBSS at Tampines, MND has decided to put all upcoming DBSS launch on hold while ramping up the BTO supply.. I'd say it's about time.. DBSS is just BS.. Agree 100% Edited August 8, 2012 by Cars08 ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph22 Turbocharged August 8, 2012 Share August 8, 2012 I dunno leh..I used to stay in a pt block 5 room...that was so much bigger than a 5 rm DBSS at Bishan...Bishan one is machiam like a 4 room...AMK I only been to a 4 rm...it is pathetic... yeah their 4 room version CMI but 5 room one i see liao still quite okay. infact the only DBSS i felt is reasonable to buy for its side. the other one is the 5 room one in Yishun just for a different floor plan (not the size.) MY opinon only of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic August 8, 2012 Share August 8, 2012 Wondering did anyone has any relatives that bought DBSS... I have had 3 relatives who bought DBSS at various locations...I went to their place and were in shock: 1. A 4-rm flat is tiny and smaller than a modified old 3rm HDB flat....I wonder why.. 2. Weird layout for a 4 rm unit, where toilet bowl smack right behind the door, hence you have to close the door to access the toilet bowl... 3. Master bedroom toilet really "open" concept, hence before u do anything, u need to wind down the blind or get the window frosted... 4. 5-rm looks like a old 4rm size 5. Extremely poor workmanship for the additional premium u paid for 6. A big lobang for plants at the balcony which many of them jus lay wood planks over it... 7. Even ground level is taken up 8. At least 1 lift always under servicing conditions regardless of the location 9. When I walked in, it feels like a condominium but I wonder where is the security guard I have nothing against DBSS but i find that for the money u pay, it is jus not value for money. Hence, i can understand why DBSS owner will KPKB over BTO slapped right in front of their nose. Given a choice, they would prefer a BTO over DBSS but decision made and nothing they could do about.... They should jus put a halt to all DBSS projects. Go back to BASICS. That's the best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackyv Turbocharged August 8, 2012 Share August 8, 2012 Saw today new paper on the residents complaining about HDB building BTO beside their Ang Mo Kio DBSS flats. One say there is a school around how to ensure safety of the children during construction? One say the dust and noise will affect their environment. One say the area there is very crowded after the BTO, how to make sure enough amenities for the resident there. One say should at least wait for 5 years later (MOP) so the DBSS resident can have a choice to move out. I think they just wanna say, the BTO will affect their DBSS price lar. Just be frank lar! obviously, many of those who buy dbss are just a bunch of "elites wannabe" who thought they are a class level above hdb dwellers... but seems like not body told them, dbss is actually hdb after 5yrs....same class.....

Hahaha, fully agree. Am thinking of moving back to mum's old place. I see so many kukus at my place hanging clothes out when there's no sunlight. I just hang indoor with windows open.

Current HDB design focus more on aesthetic liao.. even the one i bought, the laundry drying area is tucked in one corner out of the general view.. Only thing is, i was kinda lucky cos the unit i chose has the drying area exposed directly to evening sun Edited August 8, 2012 by Shull Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
