This unit is left with 62 years only.
Imagine you buy, and have to stay for 5 years MOP.
It will be left with 57 years only.
When a HDB flat is left with lesser than 60 years remaining, restrictions start to kick in, and it becomes difficult to sell, and thus value will start to drop drastically.
If you buy at $768k, you are "rescuing" the seller, because then he gets to discard his deteriorating-value HDB and jump to somewhere else. While you are stuck with it.
Good luck to whoever that buys it at this price.
Yeah property agent are only keen in selling n making quick bucks. They wouldn't let u know all this fine details. For consumers who doesn't do research, you're digging your own grave. Selling at $768k, I rather get a new BTO 5 room, or a condo. Even though different layout.
Real life case study:
In Jan 2019, at Blk 24 Eunos Crescent, a similar flat (two 3room combined into one), remaining lease only 57 years, was transacted at only $475,000
Imagine your value dropping $200k to $300k just after 5 years, if you buy at $768,000.
Or, just wait for 2 more years, and this unit price will drop tremendously, then buy.
Interesting perspective. What would you reckon is a good buy in your opinion?
I'll definitely buy this for my retirement plans after reaping profits from the sale of my private property, this jumbo will then be fully paid. By then its a property for stay and at the same time minimal investment. I will bring up the wall back so that I can rent out the other unit. Since its an old jumbo HDB flat with short remaining lease, price will definitely depreciate in future thus the only advantage of jumbo is that one unit you can rent it out and owner lives in the other unit. Owner will still enjoy their privacy with the two existing main doors for entrance. This way ur milking out your profits in cash each month, you dont even need to fulfill your 5yrs MOP to rent it out as you're living alongside with tenants, its as good as having a dual-key unit like private condos. This way I can also avoid the steep ABSD if I wish to buy a second property for rental yield. Jumbo allows me to do that but with less pressure on the financial part. Just my two cents worth☺️
What are your thoughts propertylimbrothers?

A fair price for this unit will be approx $600,000 only.
Assuming that the rental I can charge for this unit is $3200 per month. Total lifetime rental for 62 years = $2,380,800.
25% of lifetime rental = $595,200. This would have been my best highest offer price.
The current asking price of $768,000 is 32% of lifetime rental. Which is nuts, because even a brand new launched condo price is selling at the same benchmark.
Definitely lease period is a main concern
3.45 poor doggo waiting for his owner to come back
Turns out it seems that this unit was sold for only $660k. That is a drop of $100,000 from the original asking price!
this is actually better than buying a condominium imo
How do I find the transaction prices for resale units? Coz Im trying to look for other units
The bedrooms and toilets are not nicely renovated. But the kitchen and living area are nice.
nicest jumbo i've ever seen.
Very nice renov for a jumbo unit but the lease period left is not ideal
I'm Malaysian and I'm honestly very impressed with this apartment.
Props to the cam operator. Butter smooth bby
Nice spacious apartment to have it with 4 bathrooms..
Yea definitely spacious but kind of dislike this type of layout.
Would have prefered if this was a combined of a corner unit + a 4rm unit.
Mine is a corner unit(5rm unit,4rm with a balcony) while my neighbour is 4rm unit.
Imagine you combine my unit + my neighbour unit,it will be 7 room,4 Toilets & 1 balcony.
Those who love open space type,this is suitable for them.
this one u guys knocked outta the park... i always complain about things... but this unit has the ability to congregate what u want in a unit without sacrificing alot!!!
maybe i need to look for 2 side by side units to make into one... so much to change n able to make MY own on this unit... without the crazy cost... cuz alot i would leave as is without a paint job cuz i hate white... white makes me think of prison lol
Same i dun like white too, but it seems that the white on wood interior design is the trend now esp among young families. I really dun like the full white kitchen cabinets, the rest are bearable
how much earning power and CPF money must be in to typically afford such house?
The longest-held opposition ward in Singapore. 28 years straight and no sign of losing.
Why are there 2 bedroom 2 and one of it is a bathroom?
If I will spent so much money to buy this unit I would consider who will be my neighbour.
👍
Do we need 2 owners to buy such house?
My 5 rm hdb is 135sqm
I don’t like the open concept and how the kitchen is designed, it’s kind of weird
Looks hot and humid. Not windy at all.
I can buy a bungalow with that price in other countries.
So we can buy 2 flat?
Time to buy my neighbour's house NOWWW
You only allowed to own 1 HDB, this video is misleading
Was it camera effects? The jumbo is only 134sqm but the house looks like bungalow space 😱
They shot this clip with Iphone X. 7:18
I didnt know you could do that tbh. So am i allowed to buy the flat above mine and combine it? My current one is a mansionette ( smaller second living space thn the first lvl ) so am i allowed to combine one on the floor above mine with my second floor?
Of course you are not allowed. He is not telling the whole story.
Love your videos but Melvin, can you please work on your pronunciation :) looking forward to the next video!
spot on lol
Also ‘cut’ out excessive use of ‘actually’!
Love your Singlish Melvin. Don’t need to work on your pronunciation 🥰

Literally it's still 2 HDB units, so you need to four persons name on the property.
that beam above the sofa and dining table. bad feng shui
Lease left?
Left 62 years only. Super old already.
Wah 38 years old already older than me man. But for the size. Ok lah
take a shot every time he says "actually"
I actually feel you actually.
The renovation costs more than 100K.
why the dog not moving one
still available or sold ?
can i just buy that dog in the background? :p
I want the dog!
Where?
🤣🤣
I saw the furkid 😍😍😍

Jazcuzzi room in 2nd kitchen
.. I could feel the pain while this fella trying very hard to explained of the entire video ..
I feel you too. It is kind of painful to watch.
@howrupal :: exactly ..
very "busy" video explaining what the spaces used to be, that is more for an interior designer to say instead of for the purpose of selling the unit...
Funny the way he uses the word 'carpentry'. Isn't it just a fitted cupboard?
its a common term in sg reno
the way of marketing properties has changed. again
Wow👏👏👏👍🥰
$738K? for apartment? wow i dont know SG apartment will be this expensive....better u buy house at Malaysia...u will get Semi-D/Buglow/Land...
It's such an awkward layout. Too much walls and corners.
$762k for such an old flat... A joke.
Idk why it recommended to me. Haiz. Maybe I have money to buy such house soon. Actually I don't like to walk so much this house is too huge la.. then the style I don't like.. I like round table compared to square.. too much edges make me feel scare to fall down or walk too fast hit the edges ouchhh...
Meanwhile I'm watching this video from my 300 Sqm owned landed house which costs the same with their renovation fees 8 years ago.
...from Indonesia...
You can't compare a third world country with a poor infrastructure against the advanced Singapore.
Great video showing the property. The host, Melvin, speaks really well and clear.
Actually x 9999999999999
Stay away from toxic assets like these
Agreed. Conditions apply: 99 years LEASE!!!😟
No point buying it. No value.
Feng Shui wise I don’t think it’s good.
1:58 lol . thts not huge
P
why isit so cheap ??? Shouldn’t it go for at least 1mil ?????
No one wants to live in hougang
@@jamjamjam13 LOL
ceejayyy Cheap? Read the top comment of the comment thread. I kind of pity the buyer if he paid the asking price.
Loction, unit floor, lease left are all considerations.
