Hi Mr. Karthik,
First of all, may I understand if you have managed to secure a good Q number to select a choice bidadari unit? If so, then it will be a fair comparison worth exploring as you have 2 certain options to go for. Assuming this is the case, I would recommend the EC option as it provides higher capital appreciation potential and condo lifestyle at an affordable price point. Further, you will still receive 1st timer grants if your monthly income is 12k & below. Your competition when it comes to any potential resale in the future is also less competitive (as there will be various Bidadari units reaching 5 year MOP like your unit versus private properties competition in the Hundred Palms vicinity).
Have you reviewed the Hundred Palms showflat? There are various pros going for the EC option (versus BTO) which I be happy to share more over a short discussion at the showflat. I am involved with the Hundred Palms Developers Appointed Team and will be happy to understand your plans further and share more about how similar clients have decided.
May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.
Warm Regards,
Ivan Ng ERA ASAP

(Client's Testimonials)
-- HDB BTO 4rm Sellers Mr. Farvin & Ms. Sel --
Ivan was the first agent that we met up with and right from the offset we had good vibes as he has a friendly personal approach, detailed working style and focuses on building the long-term relationship.
Our unit comes with its challenges but Ivan remained positive and had no qualms committing to our plans right from the start. It took only 6 weeks of aggressive marketing for him to secure a good offer which was a pleasant surprise in the end.
Ivan was always responsive and we had no worries to pass him the house keys. The whole process was transparent and hassle free, and he was always thinking from our point of view on how to make life easier for the client. He is a committed professional and has fast execution, so we felt assured that things are done well and we can entrust the sale process entirely to him.
--- HDB Flat Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Lee ---
We decided to engage Ivan as our agent as we were impressed with how he answered the enquiries on property guru website.
He has helped us to find our ideal unit and also sold our current unit. He was very patient and never pushy when we were looking for our ideal unit. He would tell us that it is always important to find a unit that we really liked.
When it comes to selling of our unit, he was always prompt in arranging for viewings and he also tried his best to arrange and consolidate the viewings due to our time constraints. He is a reliable and prompt agent and is always willing to clarify any concerns and questions that we have.
Thanks Ivan! :)
--- HDB Flat Buyers Mr. & Mrs. Lau ---
"As 1st-timer Buyers we had plenty of questions, and were uncertain on how best to proceed. A discussion with Ivan cleared our doubts and our plans could progress quickly. We are comfortable with his working style as he is not pushy, and tries to think from our point of view.
It took us about 8 months & at least 30 viewings to find something ideal, & Ivan was always happy to 'house-hunt' with us, always emphasizing "Don't worry, suit you then buy. Important is that you all buy happy & parents endorse the unit".
Eventually, we got our ideal unit, negotiated below valuation. The financial planning calculations were smooth, breakdown was detailed and schedule of payments illustrated clearly so we know what to expect at each phase.
Every phase of hdb process & timeline was explained in detail & hassle free
