I was so excited when I saw about a new online balloting system pushed out by HDB. It's going to be every 10th of even months starting from April. Starting from today, there is this online balloting exercise for mature estate at Clementi, Bukit Merah and Bedok. Without further ado, I quickly went online to apply. Closing date is 19th March. Ballot for Bedok 4-room flat. but realised that the price of these new standard flats are not cheap. It ranges from $210K to $263K. For that kind of pricing, I can get a resale flat at this pricing after minising the grant given by government. And I might not have to do any major renovation. Anyway, we shall see how the balloting goes.
Anyway, I'm glad that HDB has come up with a process on the sales of their un-sold flats. It always seemed to me that there are so many unsold flat yet they aren't any when I want to buy one. Argh! i think unless you are buying a flat at Sengkang/Punggol area, then there would definitely be flats available. But those would be low-level ones. And you can forget about 4 room. those left over are 5 room and Executive.
Maybe I have a roof over my head now. Hence, I don't feel the urgency to get one. I'm also looking for resale flats around PIL area. We just identified another area nearby but there are only 4 blocks of flat there! very little... been flipping through the papers but no one is selling there. As time goes by, it gets tiring. But we must perseverse!
