hi choohian, good to see you too! :) market's kinda bleeding. hope ppl heeded rayphua's and victorf's call to stay out for now. think i posted in some other thread yest that market's peaking too... if you've rode the aug 17th crash to now, can consider exiting. time to prep for accumulation for the next 2 weeks to end nov. shplayer, yea, always a temptation to NOT buy some more wine! lol. yep, i miss singaporegal too! :)))) haha.

 

Dear Elf, it's a good feeling with you around again. Hope the former regulars will get back to keep the forum alive.

 

Elfin... :)

Good to have you, our "live wire of ShareJunction" posting again!

Sure makes the place come alive again !!!

I am sure Singaporegal will be delighted too... hehehe..

 

Sporeguy,

Yes, rental mkt very strong. Last week, I helped a friend rent out his condo. Placed ad in ST, 2 viewing in the afternoon, first tenant made on the spot decision, no negotiation, 'as is where is' basis......put 2 mths down (usually 1 month) with letter of intent to secure the tenancy.

Agent got easy job.

 

 

 

Hi elfie,

Welcome back!!!!

Better not attend Wine for Asia.....may get tempted again. Just ordered a whole lot of wine last week.....definitely overstocked at the moment.

 

hey baseerahmed, thanks for the welcome. :)

just had time to scroll through the posts. hehe, shplayer, wine for asia's coming up. going for that? i bought back some good bottles from laos (remember, they were a former french colony)... unfortunately couldn't bring more. hahaha.

ok, gotta catch up with my stocks. lets see what's left for the year. cheers to all! :)

 

The return from rental for private condos from 1997 to 2006 was about 2% pa. Only now the return is 3% pa. while HDB flat return from rental now is about 5% pa.

 

hi ! elfinchilde !

welcome back !

: )

 

 

hullo! am back! missed me? haha. will do proper post at home; office blocking the site proper loading. laos is a beautiful, beautiful country (with a lot of historical intrigue too, for the history buffs). still a bit dreamy...wanna go back. sigh. sean68, not no direction; but gotta be very sharp. only certain counters are moving. market doing well; elfie's locked in her blues. taken final positions for easttech and FJBen. let's see. still holding on achieva: it's being played. follow MACD long term for clearer direction.

 

I don't think supply will exceed demand for the coming 5 years at least, and prices of both public, private, rental will shoot up to yet another record high especially with garment wanting to increase our populations to 6 over millions. Must build houses out towards the sea like those in Dubai soon.

 

now a days market very messy, don't know which counter to track, all suka suka any how jump up and down not following TA or FA at all, very siong leh.

 

 

Sorry, typo error , should be 10%(missed the shift key) to 15% discount.

 

The resale market was hot only for 3 months (April to JUly 2007). Now it has quieten down. Those on sale are generally of poor facing, can get about 105 to 15% discount over those with good facing. Only those newly launched are warm (not hot), caveat emptor for those who buy poor facing!

 

The bubble will burst when Supply exceeds Demand.

If you look at the last correction in 1997/9, supply was about 40-50k units (ready and coming onstream within a year or two) vs an annual demand of about 10 to 12k units. Speculative elements could have delayed the bubble burst for awhile but would not have held it off. The anti speculative rules (stamp duties, capital gains tax) acclerated the imminent correction.

Currently, demand is still strong due to the following:

• The strong Spore economy
• Govt policy to increase population with more FTs.
• Displaced residents of the enblock fever.
• Relaxation of anti speculative measures.

Think about it, if the govt carries out its plan to increase the population from the current 4.5m to 6.5m in say 20 years, that is 2m more people needing a roof over their heads. Assuming 4 per household, demand will be 500k housing units or 25k units per year....just from the FT population increase policy. 

 

 

 

I wonder when the real estate bubble is going to burst. The prices are getting ridiculous now.

 

Pikachu,

 

I have a friend making easily 6-digits, by now totalling millions. Reason: sub-sale and personal investment.....with new launch and en bloc potential, per unit easily 6-digit.

 

'Bang Baseer... :)

Saya pun cakap sama2...
Konsep2 awak itu sangat baik... boleh bikin satu gambar cerita sains-fiksion ...

(I agree with u... that's a very good idea.. maybe  a sci-fic story can be made...)
