Mercs Hypersonic June 26, 2019 Share June 26, 2019 What’s surprised me that the article says the 12 year old house needs major renovations; 12 years old and need major renovation already ?? ........ Hmmm quality issue or design flaw poor maintenance or what ??Not your typical run of the mill mass market, at 12.9mil price tag can afford are those UHNWI with high expectation.After 12 years, probably need a major revamp to 'brand new' again to meet those expectations 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercs Hypersonic June 27, 2019 Share June 27, 2019 https://sbr.com.sg/financial-services/in-focus/expat-living-cheaper-in-singapore-hong-kong-study Expat living is cheaper in Singapore than Hong Kong: study Although Singapore moved one notch in the world's costliest cities for expats, the city still trails behind Hong Kong which holds the distinction as the world's priciest, according to Mercer's annual cost of living survey. Singapore also trails behind Tokyo which occupies second place. The high cost of living in Singapore was fueled by sustained demand for quality housing and rising affluence. Singapore was hailed as the second most expensive housing market in the world, with price basis of about $1404 (US$1,036) psf compared to that of Hong Kong where average property costs a whopping $2,833 (US$2,091) psf, according to an earlier report from CBRE. https://sbr.com.sg/residential-property/in-focus/singapore-still-second-priciest-housing-market-in-world Singapore still the second priciest housing market in the world 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
therock Supersonic June 27, 2019 Share June 27, 2019 Expect more HKG migrants in the coming months.. And they won't mind paying prices here, these HKG birds will be even more powerful than the local SG birds.. Their "cheap cheap" cry will drown out the shouts of overpriced apartments by the locals. Coupled with the money from en bloc sales, the local market may yet find another pair of legs to keep running high.. Everyone huat ah! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
