    In this episode, we will talk about playing within our means instead of pursuing that romantic idea of having an ancestor home for the family. Especially when they are new addition of family members. All resources including money and time will be stretched.
    So if he is okay with the stress, then I would go with a marked up deal. If not, I would go with an apartment within the budget, then continue to work like dog for the landed home.

    My own case - purchase a condo at the first place. Subsequently our family growing and eventually we purchase a subsale landed prop during MCO period and now, it has appreciated like 10% in terms of value. It’s leasehold as well. Whereby, for the condo, it’s extremely hard to find tenant and the market value came down.. We actually sold it at loss and fork out 30k to settle everything. Morale of the story - u will never regret for a landed prop at good location.

    Is not about landed or highrise, is about how big the space you actually needed. If you only need 1000-1200sqft, but you bought 2000-2500 sqft. You actually paid "extra" for your wastage. Buy what you need, not only what you want.

    Its all depends whether you can afford it or not ? If you cannot afford it, then just get a condo. If you don't have big hat, don't try to wear one. Don't swallow something that you can't swallow or else you will get choke.

    Good advice Sean, covering all the bases. Gentle 'hand holding' approach with words in delivering the 'brutal truth' about affordability when it comes to purchasing a property which is a long term commitment. More people, especially the first time home buyers should come and listen "Asking Sean' before making their decisions. Great job, two thumbs up!

    A new semi-flexi style of working hour nowadays make a lot of different.
    Like you just need to come to office once or twice a week, that will be good point to purchase a unit little bit outskirt.
    Plus if you buy a good maxi-scooter, it will definitely change our perception on outskirt area.
    The wife is commission based, and it usually flexible hour supposedly.

    No worries about the price of landed property increasing in the future as future you may be more able to afford it as you progress in your career and earn more. Always good to spend below your means so that in bad times you can still support financially. All the best.

    If the landed house is lease hold really need to think twice 😅
    Some more is it really really need to purchase a mil house for own purposes 😅
    He still young still got many chance to purchase the landed house in future one ....
    Is not easy to commit a Baby ...my own experience,my personal commit my young daughter per month is over 2k is just for the school fees and some extra lesson fees...not yet including Birthday gift , Christmas gift , and some extra experience family trips ....Of courses this kind of commit is depending parents....
    But ...most younger parents is (Yes )Parents one ....😂

    Not sure what is the pros of buying a landed especially if its leasehold, since the capital appreciation is high only for freehold. I don't think landed property really provide a higher standard of living, if anything i feel condos are more comfortable and easier to maintain, less bugs and pest too. I have stayed over 20 years in landed.

    • @dilyaTebya

      It depends on the person itself. For me better landed, even if leasehold, as i dont use any of the facilities provided by condominium etc swimming pool. Gardening space is greatly important to me.

    19:32 Why subsale houses are more value for money? New houses have discounts, cashbacks, free legal fees, etc and the houses and furnitures are all brand new. And may be zero downpayment. Isn't it better?

    • @iherng

      They will price in all that along with inflation for the house. But a subsale is strictly determined by the market.

      Cos you can buy subsale property below market value (if you have luck) which is cheaper than buying a new property from a developer

    I encourage this guy to buy landed homes which are getting less and less compared to strata units. Their capital values will continue to go up while condo markets will regularly face oversupply. The idea of living together is very commendable: my daughter stays in 3 storey terraced house- with master bedroom reserved for us the parents, and enough rooms for her, son in law and 3 little children, plus 2 helpers. The kids have so much space to move around and play with. It's a great joy to live together as a family. My children are working hard but not complaining
