NOTG - Nuggets on the Go by PropertyLimBrothers

#82: Singles Scheme: Affordability, Housing Options, Reno Costs & Resale Concerns


Listen Later

This week on NOTG, Alexa, Yong Zhun, and Joan dive into the life of Charmaine, a typical 35-year-old at the end of her “Spring season”, who’s just trying to get her own place—kind of like Alexa! They chat about singles’ eligibility for HDB flats at this age and navigate through the various stages of property investment.

 

They explore Charmaine’s options, from HDB resale flats and 2-room BTOs to 1-bedroom condos. The team breaks down the pros and cons, from mortgage costs and rental income to location and future resale potential. They also highlight the perks of acting early in today’s booming property market.

 

Wrapping up, they dive into the nitty-gritty of living with tenants and renovating older flats versus the benefits of a 1-bedder condo. It’s all about making savvy, financially smart choices that fit a single-buyer’s goals and future stability!
