Dear sir/mdm,

I assume you have done your fair bit of research in order to understand the pricing for your current resale EC. The key now is to identify which resale EC has better potential than your current one, or is resale EC the right option? Have you also sort of shortlisted some resale EC projects to zoom into for your options ahead?

It will help a great deal to understand more about your needs and also perhaps limitations.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 10years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Hi,

Based on your described situation, may I ask on what basis do you determine the 4BR resale EC that you're planning to purchase has a better potential than the current EC that you're staying in?

Have you looked into the reasons why the 3BR resale EC that you bought in 2012 has not really appreciate in price? Should you make the move to another resale EC today, would the same thing happen again in future when you wish to sell?

In my opinion, before any purchase, one should always do a deeper research and have properly planned entry and exit strategies in place before jumping the gun. A poorly planned purchase would set you back many years, just like what happened in 2012 when you decided to purchase your current property. Question is, can you afford to waste another 8 years by making a wrong decision today?

I am experienced and well-versed in both private and HDB resale transactions. I will be able to assist you in your housing plans. Please get in touch with me for a more in-depth discussion.

Should you need require further assistance in matters relating to property, please contact me at my mobile 9748 6305  . I will be happy to assess and share with you the possibilities for you in the current market.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Hi,

I find that some colleagues had already provide good advices. I'm just to chip in some of my opinion.

It is not often we make property purchase throughout our life, especially lots of us starts our purchase with public housing where a Minimum Occupation Period (5 years), or even private property with Seller Stamp Duty (3 years) to reduce speculation of property.
Human nature is also reluctant to changes, thus constant shifting also not common to us as well. Having said all that is to emphasize 1 point; we might make property around 3 times in our whole life time.

So it is important to make every counts.

Your last sentence on "better potential" seems telling me you are keen to get capital gain than just having a roof over head.

1) So you have to run through a property finance analysis so as to understand where you stand at current market.
2) What are your option now
3) How you could achieve both living and investment with your current situation
4) Is selling and buying the only option

In order for us to provide real analysis, we will need to have a discussion session before can advise further.

Hope the above answer to your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Dear Sir/Mdm,

If the price has not moved since 2012, you may have bought into a product which has got limited upside potential and therefore it will be good if you sell off the current unit and purchase into a unit which has got good upside potential in the future. Buying a condo is a good investment and a kind of forced savings. In the long run, you should expect your home to appreciate in value.

It is a good idea to get a 4 bedroom since the supply of 4 bedrooms in the market is lower and therefore are more likely to command a premium price. Please feel free to contact me so that I can share with you which are the undervalued 4 bedroom projects in the market currently. I am available for discussion via Zoom during this circuit breaker period as well!

Hi,

From the info in the enquiry, I believe the main motivation is to capitalize on any potential appreciation of the property so to build the wealth. In this case, perhaps the right question to ask should be whether the location and any growth story in this area, and also attributes of the condo development and competition of supply, can help with any potential upside in the future for you to exit at a higher price. Generally speaking resale EC locations are mainly in the outer areas hence it would be appreciated if you could share more about the project details before I can make more useful recommendations.

May I have more info? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

-- EC Sellers, Private Property Buyers Dr. Chan & Ms. Xie --

I would like to compliment Mr Ivan Ng for his professional work and effort.I sent my first post in Jan 2019 and Ivan replied promptly, so I have decided to contact Ivan for follow up. My EC was not ready for sale due to MOP (another 3 months from Jan) at that time and Ivan was able to give me advices on how to proceed from there. Initially we have decided to try to write to HDB for early sale but since it was only 3 months left, eventually we waited for another 3 months while we looked for our next property. Ivan was able to arrange for new property showroom appointment at a timely manner while helping us to list for our EC for sale. We were a bit worried when our EC sale time was longer than expected due to trade war, but Ivan was able to reassure us that our EC would sell. By November, he managed to secure a buyer for our EC. Thank you.

-- HDB Yishun BTO 5-RM Sellers, Private Property Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Koh --

I would like to express my appreciation to Ivan Ng for his excellent work. Ivan is a dedicated, client-focused, patient and sincere agent. Throughout the whole process of selling and looking for our next property, he has always acted very professionally that makes my wife and I feel at ease and assured. Ivan is not a pushy and hard sales agent. Ivan listens and understands our needs and carefully guided us through. We are fortunate to have Ivan as our agent. Thank you Ivan.

-- HDB Jurong West 5-RM Sellers, Exec Apartment Purchasers, Lenz & Michelle --

Good afternoon!

If you have bought a property that hasn't appreciated much in these 8 years, chances are that the price is going to remain stagnant for a long time. You are right about selling it and purchasing something else with better potential.

I have assisted many clients with this same scenario and I can assist you too. There are many value buys out there, which have great upside potential.

Do contact me and let's discuss further. Let me assist you with getting the right property and let your money work hard for you. It's time to enjoy good capital appreciation!
