Is not about landed or highrise, is about how big the space you actually needed. If you only need 1000-1200sqft, but you bought 2000-2500 sqft. You actually paid "extra" for your wastage. Buy what you need, not only what you want.

My own case - purchase a condo at the first place. Subsequently our family growing and eventually we purchase a subsale landed prop during MCO period and now, it has appreciated like 10% in terms of value. It’s leasehold as well. Whereby, for the condo, it’s extremely hard to find tenant and the market value came down.. We actually sold it at loss and fork out 30k to settle everything. Morale of the story - u will never regret for a landed prop at good location.

Its all depends whether you can afford it or not ? If you cannot afford it, then just get a condo. If you don't have big hat, don't try to wear one. Don't swallow something that you can't swallow or else you will get choke.

Forget about the ancestor home concept . chances are your twins are likely to work and reside overseas and both you and wife will stay alone in the large house once your parents pass away.

Good advice Sean, covering all the bases. Gentle 'hand holding' approach with words in delivering the 'brutal truth' about affordability when it comes to purchasing a property which is a long term commitment. More people, especially the first time home buyers should come and listen "Asking Sean' before making their decisions. Great job, two thumbs up!

A new semi-flexi style of working hour nowadays make a lot of different. Like you just need to come to office once or twice a week, that will be good point to purchase a unit little bit outskirt. Plus if you buy a good maxi-scooter, it will definitely change our perception on outskirt area. The wife is commission based, and it usually flexible hour supposedly.

I encourage this guy to buy landed homes which are getting less and less compared to strata units. Their capital values will continue to go up while condo markets will regularly face oversupply. The idea of living together is very commendable: my daughter stays in 3 storey terraced house- with master bedroom reserved for us the parents, and enough rooms for her, son in law and 3 little children, plus 2 helpers. The kids have so much space to move around and play with. It's a great joy to live together as a family. My children are working hard but not complaining

No worries about the price of landed property increasing in the future as future you may be more able to afford it as you progress in your career and earn more. Always good to spend below your means so that in bad times you can still support financially. All the best.

19:32 Why subsale houses are more value for money? New houses have discounts, cashbacks, free legal fees, etc and the houses and furnitures are all brand new. And may be zero downpayment. Isn't it better?
@iherng Жыл бұрын
They will price in all that along with inflation for the house. But a subsale is strictly determined by the market.

Not sure what is the pros of buying a landed especially if its leasehold, since the capital appreciation is high only for freehold. I don't think landed property really provide a higher standard of living, if anything i feel condos are more comfortable and easier to maintain, less bugs and pest too. I have stayed over 20 years in landed.
@dilyaTebya6 ай бұрын
It depends on the person itself. For me better landed, even if leasehold, as i dont use any of the facilities provided by condominium etc swimming pool. Gardening space is greatly important to me.
