Ardmore Sucks

Sorry, but Ardmore Park sucks. Small, boxy rooms (where the F*** did those 2888 sq ft go???), no balconies (and don't tell me about those little ledges). Plus, it's showing it's age. In fact, five years ago I thought the units I viewed looked worn out, run down and daggy. Ridiculously draconian rules about what you can and cannot do on the grounds and in the pool. Jeez. I could go on.

Well if 'crappy' ardmore park is selling for 2100 psf, the market really must be tanking. Lol you missed the entire point. The Sail is not a good benchmark for the entire market...

There are quite a few condos where the price increases of the past month or two have not trickled down.  Sure, most of the brand new prime projects are obviously leading the benchmark of higher prices, but the majority of other projects have not yet caught up as much.  Overall, it is a pretty balanced market, with more than a few good bargains if you take a normal 3-5 year perspective on owning.

Do these bulls believe that median prices can jump or decline 10-20% in a 1 or 2 month period.  This is not like the stock market.  It happens in comparative slow motion.

Welcome to asia kubes. Now you are getting the picture. Singapore is way slower on the uptick thank hong kong.  Stick around a few more cycles and you might understand the market better.

The statement by one of the PPs on Ardmore is plain wrong. According to URA, the lowest it went to in the past year was one unit being sold at 1976 psf in March 2009. There was one transaction in April for 2132 psf and one in May for 2080 psf. The latest ones have obviously not made it to the URA site yet.

In comparison, there were 3 transactions at a median price of 3118 psf in March 2008.

Fairly hefty 34% drop from the peak even if you consider the recent price stabilization.

Neither bull nor bear. Just the facts. You choose glass half full or empty. Your choice.

Just can't help saying this - you really have to be in the market to know what's going on.  Sound may be in your concepts, but you can't beat the market.  It is a fact that prices have risen. Well, there may be a second round of storm...

BUT YES, it remains a fact that prices have gone up for now.

JUST ACCEPT IT!

I am not arguing that actual prime property sales prices have gone up or down in the last few months.  I am requesting is to see the evidence and facts, not all these anecdotal hear-say word-of-mouth claims.

Don't be such a whiner kubes.  You know very well that caveats for transactions this month won't come out for another 3 months.  If you refuse to believe the 'hearsay' posted by people who actually know what is going on, then kindly just refrain from posting for another few months until you can get your grubby little paws on your precious data.

Kubes is just winding you up. It's the only explanation for posting something so blatantly wrong.

This silly out of work agent would have us believe that she "actually" knows "what is going on". Too funny. Get back in your box!

Where there's kubestroll, his mancrush (or alter ego) is bound to be close behind. Pun intended.  Monday morning moron.
