Hi, this depends on what you are looking for when you are selecting a BTO. Typically, agents do not advise on BTO flats as there isn't much transaction ongoing but you can definitely approach anyone you want for advice.

Depending on what your needs are, the people you look for can vary, such as if you are someone into fengshui, you would need to find a feng shui master, also other things to look out for are things such as facing of the unit, the configuration of the unit and many more. If you have a specific design in mind and must have a certain layout, then interior designer can help you, though usually interior designer will work with the space they have as well as what design concept you have in mind.

Hi, hopefully you managed to get your doubt or query answered. If so, then congrats! Hopefully you are doing well now.

Hi,

Is yours 4 or 5-room? Will go for 451X series or 452A for a start. Look out for units with minimal west facing so its less warm, and also corner units if still available. You are planning to sell upon MOP of 5 years?

Hope the above clarifies. I am well-versed with HDB and private property transactions, having helped more than 100 homeowners transit smoothly with their housing plans. Please reach out to me at 97432395  for a more in-depth discussion :)

May I have more info on your requirements so as to make better recommendations? Thanks and looking forward to chat more

Hi,

The following are the main factors to consider to determine the unit value:
(1) Distance to MRT: <200m more expensive
(2) Higher floor levels are more expensive than low
(3) Corner units are more expensive then corridor units.
(4) A higher remaining lease is more expensive than a lower remaining lease.
(5) Avoid odd corners units.
(6) Avoid west-facing units. Only bathrooms are not affected by west facing, in fact, a little west facing towards bathrooms is welcome.
(7) Keep good habits to maintain the unit. This not only provides a healthy environment for the family, also fetches a better price when selling.
(8) Lastly, try not to keep large size pets and pets that have a strong odor. You will find that it is going to have great difficulties in selling later.

Please give me a thumbs-up if the answer provided is relevant to your main concern. Thanks!!!

Hope the above answers your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Professional Guidance (Optional):

Property Agents: While not strictly necessary for BTO selection, some property agents offer consultation services. They might have insights into specific BTO projects or the surrounding areas. However, their primary focus might be resale flats and not BTO selection itself.
Interior Designers: If your primary concern is maximizing space or planning future renovations, consulting an interior designer after selecting your flat could be beneficial.
Considerations for Choosing a BTO Unit:

Budget: Consider your finances and the potential impact of various factors like floor level, facing direction, and proximity to amenities.
Lifestyle Needs: Think about your daily routine and how the unit layout suits your needs. For example, do you need extra bedrooms or storage space?
Future Plans: If you plan to have a family, consider the number of bedrooms you'll eventually need.
Long-Term Value: Research historical resale prices for the BTO project to understand potential future value.
Decision-Making as a Couple:

Discuss your priorities and preferences openly.
Consider visiting the BTO site during the selection process to get a feel for the surrounding environment.
By utilizing the free resources and discussing your needs, you and your partner can make an informed choice for your BTO flat. Good luck with your selection!

Congratulations on your upcoming flat selection, unfortunately, agents in Singapore do not handle the transactions for BTO. Flat selections have plenty of factors depending on individuals. Are you superstitious in numerology, fengshui and etc? Direction of the sun as well as facing of other blocks or units can also be a concern to other buyers.

Both of you should discuss more about what the preferences are, including low, middle or high level. Are you looking for corner units only? Unit mix within the blocks can also play a part. All these factors essentially are down to individual preferences. The most important thing is to monitor the balance units closely after you have shortlisted your preference stack and block so you will have a list of units readily for selection when it is your chance.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 14 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

We are offering our clients a complimentary first consultation without obligations (Absolutely FREE!). Schedule for your FREE session today!
