Buyer Mr Wang & Ms Ng We want to convey our thanks to Ivan, who helped us find our first home. Ivan was very responsive when we first met, and took time to understand our needs and requirements for our first home. He helped us narrow down our criteria and gave us good advice on how to structure our mortgage as well. He also made a great recommendation of an area we never thought of, and it was where we eventually bought our home. We appreciate Ivan's thoroughness in pros and cons of all our options that we viewed. We never felt pressured or rushed to make a decision. In fact, Ivan gave honest and useful inputs on the considerations of acting immediately or waiting. All in all, it was a very smooth experience and we ate very happy with the unit we bought. Thank you very much, Ivan! Read More

Hi Sir/Madam

When comparing Hillsta and Arden for a 2-bedroom unit with a balcony, there are several factors to consider. Both developments have their own unique advantages, and the decision ultimately depends on your personal preferences and priorities.

1. Are you looking at 2 bed with 1 bath or 2 bed and 2 bath?

2. In addition to choosing the right project, the selection of the unit is equally crucial. If you are considering these two projects, which particular unit catches your attention the most? As Hillsta is a resale property, may I ask what price the owner is looking at?

3. What is your timeline like? Do you need to move in to new property soon?

4. Have you went through financial breakdown and timeline?
For Arden it will be progessive payment, will you prefer this?

5. The pros and cons will vary depending on the factors mentioned above, as well as several other considerations.

6. Other project nearby that you can consider is Phoenix Residences.
We still have last 2 bed available as per now, will you be interested?

When comparing Hillsta and Arden for a 2-bedder with a balcony, there are several factors to consider before making a decision:

Hillsta:

Pros:
Located in the vibrant Hillview area with easy access to amenities such as shopping malls, restaurants, and parks.
Well-connected via public transportation, including MRT and bus services.
Offers a range of facilities such as swimming pools, gymnasium, and landscaped gardens.
Potential for capital appreciation in the future due to the development of nearby infrastructure and amenities.
Cons:
Higher maintenance fees may be incurred due to the extensive range of facilities and amenities provided.
Depending on the unit's location within the development, noise from nearby roads or construction sites may be a concern.
Limited resale history or market data for comparison purposes.
Arden:

Pros:
Situated in a desirable location with good access to schools, parks, and recreational facilities.
Offers a more exclusive and intimate living environment compared to larger developments.
Lower maintenance fees may be incurred due to the smaller scale of the development.
Potential for a quieter and more peaceful living experience compared to larger developments.
Cons:
Limited range of facilities and amenities compared to larger developments like Hillsta.
May have limited access to public transportation options compared to developments located closer to MRT stations.
Potential for slower capital appreciation compared to developments in more established or prime locations.
Ultimately, the choice between Hillsta and Arden depends on your specific preferences, lifestyle needs, and long-term investment goals. It's essential to conduct thorough research, visit the developments in person, and weigh the pros and cons carefully before making a decision. Additionally, consider consulting with a real estate agent or financial advisor for personalized advice based on your individual circumstances.
