(SG) Old Age? How old is consider old? ^_^

In real estate, age is the key factor to determine your housing loan eligibility and monthly installment (tenure of loan). The best time to buy is before 35yrs old. Are you late for it? Never too late!!!

How’s the Singapore property market moving forward? You might able to guess from the Survey:

The survey said:

1. Respondents rated the property market as becoming less expensive, with an affordability score of 168 in the second half of 2014 – well above the base level of 100.

2. 76 percent of respondents expect condominium prices to fall over the next six months.

3. “43 percent of respondents intend to purchase a property within the first half of 2015 despite a bearish real estate climate. This figure represents a great improvement in consumer sentiment against previous years.”

So, to me, the results suggested:

1. A lots of ready buyers out there, what’s holding their decisions now is to observe the market movement and trying to buy at the lowest point.

2. Next, what will trigger them to buy mainly due to the market sentiment. When the property price index started to turn to positive, everyone might rush into buying again.

3. 2014 property price dropped 5% (for those not near MRT) while a lots of “expert” predicted whole market to drop 10~20%. So, many people started to get tiring while waiting for property price to drop further. They need housing! They afraid they will missed the property downturn and have to wait another 5~10yrs for the next downturn… just like me

Cheers to the new home owners/ who had secure your dream homes in 2014!! Are you one of the new home owners in 2015?

【芽笼解密：蜕变中的乌鸦】

原创 By MySgProp, 07/02/2015

新闻参考：Eye on Geylang: Defying reputation.

(SG) 芽笼，芽笼。。。它很大。。。我之前也发表过好几个关于它的巨大潜能，政府URA Master Plan要把D14区重新打造成商业中心以舒缓无法再扩大的Shenton Way，主要就是它非常近市区也近机场。这里价格相比其它同距离的City Fringe地点低了很多。。。就因为 — 新加坡红灯区也在芽笼。有的人甚至直接把整个D14区都和红灯区挂钩起来。 D14除了Geylang还包含了Eunos，和Paya Lebar。。。。更大啊！ ^_^

大约一年前我也有聊过怎么选芽笼的楼盘和银行贷款问题，不知道大家还记得否？这则文章也有提到让大家温故知新：

1. 红灯区在Geylang Lorong的“双数”，以Lorong 16为中心。准确一点说，Lorong 4到22的双数街道就是红灯区。很少银行要批贷款，文中说只有两家银行愿意批。

2. 当然4到22对面的单数巷子也会被影响了一些，所以这里的贷款也会比较难，但比双数巷子机会高很多。

3. 芽笼1到3巷就其实就不担心了，因为那里基本上属于Kallang的地盘了。

4. 过了24巷已经不属于红灯区，但是银行贷款还是会Case by Case，就看你多靠近红灯区，离得越远越好。。。单数更好。

5. 过了40巷后就不必担心了，因为那里基本上属于Paya Lebar的地盘了。

4年前，很多典型的新加坡人其实很久都没有到过新山（JB）。年轻一代的（35岁以下），近5到10年都没有到过新山的人很普遍。对新山的认识，就是看报纸和听同事朋友说。大家听到新山就敬而远之，因为“新山”和“治安乱”离不开关系。所以当时介绍新山房地产真的是很费劲的一件事情。新山，新山。。。它其实也很大！！

直到新加坡政府和马来西亚政府携手在新山伊斯干达推行了几个大型的项目，并开始鼓励国人投资房地产和中小型企业迁往伊斯干达，这才让大家开始愿意去了解新山和伊斯干达经济特区的概念？慢慢的，2012年新山房地产出现了空前的飞快增长。

我知道在看我这文章的朋友，很多都对芽笼不熟，尤其是女生。。。腼腆一点的女生听到这个芽笼这个名字还会脸红的。

那为什么我那么熟？哈哈，除了因为我的工作关系需要对各地方进行研究，而且我自己也住在D14啊！

2015年1月14日，URA（城市重建发展局）提出把芽笼红灯区（4-22双数芽笼巷）重新规划土地用途。方案通过后将被纳入现有的URA Masterplan，这也意味着从今以后红灯区不会再有住宅项目。这里的租金一直以来都是全岛租金率最高的地区之一，这主要是因为价格相比其它近市区的地点要便宜很多。这样一来，这里的房子供应也会慢慢的减少，相信几年后租金会更进一步上升。新闻参考：No more new homes in Geylang red-light area

但我想芽笼这样价格偏低的情况不会持续太久！随着政府公布的未来发展蓝图中点出义顺（Yishun），裕廊（Jurong），加冷（Kallang），芽笼（Geylang），和（Paya Lebar）为重点发展。这让越来越多人开始去对芽笼有了好奇心，开始去了解它。。。上图中圈出的两个近期楼盘是国浩地产的盛世名园(SiMS Urban Oasis)和TRE Residences，这两个楼盘都是99年产权，距离阿裕尼地铁站（Aljunied MRT）差不多300～400米左右，发售价格都在S$1500 psf左右。

未来发展方面，除了芽笼自身的$2.2 Billions转型计划，还有左右两边Kallang和Paya Lebar这两个政府重点发展的黄金地段。未来创造的无数就业机会将更进一步带动这里的房产需求。

此外，James Cook大学也于去年确定将在Sims Drive建设另一间更大的学府。预计2015年尾开始收纳新生，第一批新生人数目标为3500人，并设下目标2018年学生人数将超过7000人。这里很快可以看到很大的改变。新闻参考：James Cook University Singapore to get bigger campus at Sims Drive。

7000人的大学有多大？我记得以前我小学的时候差不多1000个学生，属于A型小学，那么7个我的小学的规模挺大呢！2000年，在马来西亚国立大学（UKM）求学的时候，我记得当时的总人数约2万个学生，也就是说大约是UKM近30%的规模。。。哇，那也好大啊！

好啦，今天暂时就介绍到这里。希望这里让大家开始对芽笼有个初步的了解，而不是人云亦云。有多少人知道，碧山Bishan的前生是一个坟场？现在有红黄地铁线Interchange撑腰（NS-Circle Line）也摇身一变成了凤凰。我们错过了见证Bishan变化的机会。

接下来，随着MySgProp.com，我们一起见证D14区芽笼的蜕变吧！

MySgProp: 2014 Most Popular (TOP 5) Overseas Property Investment

By MySgProp.com, 17-Jan-2015

2014 is the year for Overseas Property Market!

Thanks to the cooling measures in Singapore & Malaysia, 2014 is a great year for Overseas Property Market. With the advanced in air transportation & connectivity, our world is getting smaller and smaller. Since the revised of ABSD, the hefty stamp duty had make the property investment in Singapore no longer an easy mission to archieve. Most of the Singaporean started to open their mind to invest across the boarder — Iskandar Malaysia since 2012, due to the close proximity to Singapore and also strong collaboration between the Singapore-Malaysia Governments in Iskandar. Now, we see more and more savvy investors had advanced their steps into the other overseas property market, especially the emerging countries to look out for more attractive returns in shorter time.

In Singapore, a 1-bedroom condo easily cost S$600K. The downpayment needed at least 20% + 10% Stamp Duty (assuming this is your second property, and the bank loan had fully paid up for 1st property). 30% translated to about S$180K. This amount of money is not easy to fork out for most of the family, or beyond the investment budget range. Singapore living cost is one of the highest in the region, everyone is working hard for a better quality of life. Rather than let the money depreciating in bank, people are more willing to allocate portion of their investment fund into Overseas Property Market.

The following are the Top 5 Overseas Property Investment (MySgProp.com) for the year 2014. Did you miss?

2014 Market Trend Summary:

The Bridge by Singapore Developer (Oxley) received overwhelming response at both Singapore and Cambodia. The AEC (ASEAN Economic Community) will be kicked off in 2015. If you still don’t know what is AEC, you’re out-dated for Overseas Property Market. Read brief info “What the AEC 2015 means for Singaporean businesses“
