One of the best condos in D16
We have stayed in a few condos in D15 and D16 and this is by far one of the best in D16. Although our rental is on a high side, i feel that i am paying for what it is worth ie quiet, peaceful environment yet having the tube and taxi stand within 2 minutes of a leisure stroll. There are restaurants and a 24/7 supermarket nearby too. Spoke to a few neighbours around here and saw many agents so i guess the demand here is high. Our neighbour secured her's 3 months back and she literally fought off all other bids. Now she is happy and doing up her renovations. Deep pockets i've heard :) Cheers! -

Careful of owner of 02-01
I read the review written by some 'serious buyer' and thought he is referring to the same guy whom I also met to close the deal. He is into meeting various people and then getting their offers only to up his price. As seller, yes he has every right to hold on to his property and sell only at a price that he wants but what is not correct is to keep people under an impression that if they hike the price they will get the unit, while what he is trying to do is JUST OBTAIN AN OFFER and then show to other potential buyers to increase the price. He did that to me as well and is now quoting my offer as 'LAST OFFER SO MUCH BUT REJECTED' No doubt the house is nice but all buyers should be careful when dealing with such greedy people !!!! I am just trying to help others the way I learnt from an earlier review post.......thanks -

Not a good buy
Reading story posted yesterday and can not help to registering myself and share some thoughts. Yes the property is great, but the sellers are very greedy in hiring 7-10 agents to market their properties. Not a good situation for both buyers and agents working on this. Although there is over 200 listing for sale on propertyguru.com, the actual units are available is less than 10 and all bad facings ones. LOL. - facing Optima, ground or 2nd floors, antsy sellers raising up price every week, etc. I would spend 1 million dollars buying a home with features I like, not commodating to the market and greedy speculators. There will always be good properties : - ) -

Unit 02-01 owner bad behavior
For all agents and buyers: Just be careful of owner trying to sell 3+1 3br unit at Stake 1 Floor 2. We bid $1.07m and he agreed to price last night through agent, then we (me & agent) come to his place in Serangoon to give check for OTP, he suddendly asked us to give him our check but give him another 3 days to accept/reject the offer. Then said his lawyer not available at 1pm to draft his OTP, as he refuses to use standard OTP from his agent. He kept bragging about how many units he has here and there. I have so much sympathy for my and his agent. They work their tails off for two days to get deal down, and he have all of us coming to his place at lunch time and broke the deal in this way. If I am agent/buyer, i would stay from deal with this seller as he does not know what he wants to do, and waste your time. he put his wife on the property owner name. we ask to see a property tax bill, and he got offended by that and blame us not geninue on "small things". Just FYI. I am happy going for other units. As a foreigner trying to invest for a condo in Singapore, I used to think Singaporean are responsible and professional people, but this seller really changed my minds. He can just tell us he changed mind, rather than fool us around like this. -

yeo
At first, I was worried about the optima construction, but the location is really great!! So near to MRT station yet away from busy neighbour estate. Nice n safe interior, black n white with a touch of brown from the parquet. 2 bedrooms, suitable for single, couple or family with 1 or 2 kid, 3 bedrooms n above suitable for big family. With a good rental return, it is a good choice for own stay or investment. -

Good rental opportunities
Looks like a very cluttered estate because a new condo is going to be right infront of it. No views to talk about...best views are pool views. However, with all the business developments that are going on around the area, it will be a good place for rental. And of course, having the MRT right in front is definitely a +++. -
