    Default ****ty work but high price... Any reason behind that?

    HDB is really eating up our money... I believe that a simple or not really well done 4room/5room flat don't comes up to 100 - 200 k? And the works of the HDB subcon really cannot make it...

    ****ty work but we are paying a high price for it!

    Our government wants to fill up their coffers Think the high price comes about partly because HDB factors in the cost of land even though they don't have to pay for it. *sigh* property prices are so expensive nowadays.

    They are cunning alright, makes you SO happy with paper gains when your property increase in value. Until you try to upgrade and realise that you cannot get anything better if you sell cause ALL properties have appreciated in value.
