Timing, Financial Readiness & the URA Master Plan’s Influence on Property Purchases | NOTG S3 Ep 100

[@tspirate]

Congratulations to 100th Milestone! Amazing insights as always! I’d love to hear each of the PLB consultants share their personal picks and perspectives on property choices for different budgets. If you had the following budgets, which district and property would you buy, and which would you avoid, and why? $1.8M Budget - Ideal for young families or first-time buyers looking for a good balance between affordability and investment potential. $2.3M Budget - For those upgrading to a spacious unit or exploring boutique condos. $3M Budget - Targeting high-value freehold properties or sought-after locations with rental yield in mind. $4M Budget - Aimed at luxury seekers: should they focus on prime districts, CCR properties, or rare landed gems? It would be fascinating to hear how you’d approach these budgets, which areas you’d bet on for appreciation, and which properties you’d avoid based on current market trends. I think this would be super helpful for viewers making decisions at different price points!

My topic suggestion for the year. Hahaha. "Is 2025 the Right Time to Buy Property in Singapore? Exploring Trends, Affordability, and Investment Potential." Reasons: "Singapore’s property market is one of the most dynamic and resilient in the world. Discussing its trends, whether you're buying, selling property, is both timely and captivating because it touches on critical factors like affordability, government policies, and future investment potential. With skyrocketing demand for real estate, urban development projects, and evolving regulations, this topic promises a deep dive into understanding how to navigate one of Asia’s most lucrative property markets. It’s not just a discussion about numbers but a gateway to understanding a critical part of Singapore's economic landscape and lifestyle!" I need to learn more from.the book for faster Asset progression!

Should the stability of income is more impt as age catches up ? The income factor is not discussed at all

Perhaps explore deeper into the aspects of how prime plus standard vs old hdb scheme. What to go for as a couple or as a 35 yo single as first property. a 5-10 yr old resale hdb not under prime plus, or when to go for a prime/plus unit? Any interesting things to note for URA master plan or possible tightening or loosening of measures?

Topic: Cultural Nuances of Property Buying Discuss how cultural beliefs (e.g., feng shui or superstition about floor levels) impact real estate choices in Singapore. Why It Reaches All Audiences in Singapore 1. Chinese Buyers & Feng Shui - Unit numbers, floor levels, and home orientation influence purchase decisions (e.g., avoiding ‘4’, preferring ‘8’). 2. Malay & Indian Preferences - Proximity to mosques, cultural hubs, and Vastu Shastra principles affect home choices. 3. Superstitions & Generational Influence - Older buyers avoid homes near cemeteries/hospitals; younger buyers still consider family beliefs. 4. Expats & Foreign Investors - Overseas buyers (especially from China/HK) factor in feng shui, while expats may be unaware of resale implications.

I am in the midst of searching for an investment property and new launch really depends on luck. Although knowing which new launch is good and must go, luck just not in favour and I know there are resale property with good growth potential as well but just don't know how to search or what to note in finding a good investment resale property. Hope that will be able to see some guidance on the coming video.

How should one pick a resale private property ? There’s a lot of information on new launches but little on resale condos, how to pick one that will do well.
