Dear Buyer,
Home buyers have their own reasons for buying homes all over the island. A lot of them buy for convenience to workplace, schools or for sentimental reasons.

Honestly, home prices are most expensive down south, in and around the prime CBD districts. This is also where prices are highest. So, it would definitely depend on your conveniences and affordablitiy. You need to work with your chosen agent to identify what is best for your future needs.

Please contact me so that I can be of further assistance.
Cheers!

There is no standard answer, are you intending to loan the bulk of purchase price or you are financing it with existing cash and not using CPF?

How long are you intending to hold on to this property before exiting? Are you purchasing this with your family or is this going to be an investment vehicle for better things to come in the mid to long term?

Your question sets you in the right direction, however, there are more things to think about if you have certain objectives in mind for this purchase.

Hope to hear from you soon.

As a single 35-year-old considering property options in Singapore, you're faced with an interesting choice. Let's break it down:

1. **Prime Location House (PLH)**:
- These are new flats built in central locations like the city center or the Greater Southern Waterfront.
- They have shorter leases (around 50 years).
- The Prime Location Public Housing (PLH) model ensures affordability and accessibility for Singaporeans³.
- Consider PLH if you value convenience, proximity to amenities, and a central lifestyle.

2. **Off-Location/Newer Estate**:
- These are flats in newer estates, often with longer leases.
- While they might be more affordable, they're farther from the city center.
- Consider this option if you prioritize a longer lease, cost-effectiveness, and don't mind a slightly longer commute.

3. **Factors to Weigh**:
- **Lease Duration**: Shorter lease means you'll need to consider lease decay and potential lease buyback.
- **Location**: Think about your daily needs, work, and lifestyle preferences.
- **Budget**: Assess your financial capacity and long-term plans.
- **Investment Perspective**: Consider potential appreciation and resale value.

Remember, there's no one-size-fits-all answer. Evaluate your priorities, consult experts, and make an informed decision based on your unique circumstances.

Hi there,

- If you're planning to stay long-term, a newer estate with a longer lease might offer better value and peace of mind. It's likely to appreciate more over time and could provide more flexibility if you decide to sell in the future.
- On the other hand, if being in a prime location is important for your lifestyle, convenience, or potential rental income, a shorter lease in a prime area might be the way to go.
- Think about your future plans, lifestyle needs, and the potential for the property to meet your evolving goals.

Thank you.

Hi,

Is the central location important to you? As this is for own stay, personal factors have more weightage here. But generally speaking, singapore's economy and by extension rentals attainable are strong and if you are able to rent out the whole unit for 20 to 30 years, you can typically make back the initial capital. So from a numbers perspective, typically it depends on what your plans are for it in the next 5 to 10 or 20 years. If your plan is to stay long-term throughout, personal reasons will take on stronger weightage.

Just my 2 cents, happy to chat more to understand your thoughts better. Hope the above clarifies. I am well-versed with HDB and private property transactions, having helped more than 100 homeowners transit smoothly with their housing plans. Please reach out to me at 97432395  for a more in-depth discussion :)

May I have more info on your requirements so as to make better recommendations? Thanks and looking forward to chat more
