Regrettably, it appears that the cooling in the property market is not likely to improve anytime soon. During my second visit to the new development, Waterscape@Cavenagh, I arrived at the condominium and made my way towards the basement lift. As I approached, a well-dressed woman entered the corridor. Just as the lift doors were about to close, she hurriedly joined me inside and initiated a conversation by asking, "Are you an owner here?" Inwardly, I thought to myself, "How unfortunate! She is probably trying to generate business for her company." The clues were evident, as she was carrying samples of carpet tiles. These are indeed challenging times for property agen…

1. Majority of the stacks/units in Coco Palms face either Period 8 N3 or S3. 2. While only some of Block's 19 and 33 either faces E3 or W3. 3. In modern times, we now have digital maps and sites like : onemap.sg that uses govern data survey maps to draw an outline of the completed buildings. Another useful site is: streetdirectory.com. 3.1. Here, I have found using both onemap.sg and streetdirectory.com to confirm that both sites have identical orientation of the blocks and compass bearings. (Please see attachment). 4. Once a while, we do get inaccurate North marking on sales brochures of some developments. For example, when I used a protractor on the sitemap provided by…

99 year leasehold properties : be it a condo unit or a HDB flat. Plus not next to or walking distance to an MRT station. Ouch! It hurts!

Recently, a client asked me whether, should he consider buying a semi-detached: marked in red as "X" in the attachment. He was also concerned with the road "leading" towards the newly TOP semi-detached. home. He is correct to be concerned. The stretch of road marked as "A" and highlighted in bold yellow is not advantages to that home.

Soon to be launched NeWest mixed development. NeWest is built on the former Hong Leong Garden Shopping Centre with an highly unusual 956 Years Tenure. Consisting of 141 Shops and 136 Residential Units. Commercial: Supermarket: 1 unit Restaurants: 44 units Kiosk: 31 units Retail: 65 units Residential: Triplex 3-Storey Villa: 77 units Apartments: 51 units Penthouse: 8 units This two bedroom layout shows the air-con ledge (BRIGHT YELLOW) at the frontage of the unit. In fact, the air-con compressors are just outside of Bedroom 1: what a waste of the FRONTAGE.

We humans each have a birthdate. Likewise, under Flying Star Feng Shui, one must also ascertain the "birthdate" of the house. On the first page of all HDB valuation report(s) would list down the date the lease started on a specific flat. Under Para 4) Details of Property: Tenure: 99 years wef from 1 Jun 2000. (This example)

Impact of cooling measures introduced on 11 Jan 2011 18th January 2013 Summary For those smart people who do not want to waste their time reading all the details: The Singapore Property Market has become one with very low upside potential in the medium term (3 ? 5 years), but with quite significant downside risks. Low upside because: The govt is committed to not letting the prices to go up significantly. High Downside because: Huge supply (200 k units), and lower demand (reduction of foreign labour). Possible course of action if you agree with the above analysis : If you do not have any sentimental or intangible value for your apartment, it is perhaps a good time to s…

1. Please note that the photos you are about to see are just mock-up models of what the newly launched Kovan Regency's frontage looks like. 2. Based on Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; let's hope that the actual yet to be built development does protect especially the pillar circled in RED that is holding up the gym (above). 3. If a vehicle or lorry were accidentally crash into this pillar.... let's hope it is not fatal. 4. Alternatively, when this development is completed; let's hope the two "sticks" or pillars holding it : circled in red and yellow are adequately protected by e.g. flower bays or ballards or buoys. 5. Furthermore, if we take this mock-up seriously, at the vehi…

Again this reminds me of the glut in property launches.... Stamp duty covered... and finally, when property developers start introducing "Furniture vouchers"; this reminds me of the slump in property demand around the year 2001....

The uncompleted Blocks 308 and 310 Punggol. From a Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; the stacks are cemented together in some kind of a broken hex type of design. Highly unusual. But from a first view; many stacks because they are "glued together" can be generally considered as "not favourable external shapes and forms due to perhaps, how qi is going to circulate properly within many stacks. As there is a waterway running between Block 308 under Waterway Ter I and Block 310 Waterway Ter II; the architects have opened up the hex at locations facing the waterway from both blocks. Truly, a highly unusual design. Very uncommon design. For such a development; more likely; depending …

Nowadays, as you can see, many people approach Feng Shui, even before they select their flats. This is a smart choice and this is an uprising trend especially from 3 years ago. The most efficient method is, in my opinion, for a Geomancer to use a BLANK canvas such as the entire sitemap and start "painting" information onto the sitemap. Seriously, if you take a glance at the attachment... it takes many hours to plot the facing direction of each individual stacks, analyse and work out comments.... But don't you think it is worth it? At a glance, especially at a time critical situation, where your turn comes, someone else sitting at the next booth is also selecting a flat; y…

As always, the key success factor is : THE FORMS DETERMINE THE STARS, THE STARS DETERMINE THE FATE OF THE PEOPLE LIVING IN A HOME. A worked example of the combination of the application of both FORMS (Shapes and Forms) and Stars (Flying Star facing direction analysis)... Nowadays, this is the trend of the smart.... A thorough analysis includes many things: 1. Afternoon sun consideration 2. Pavilions where wakes (for the dead) are held 3. Any poison arrows (Sha qi) in the form of lamp posts; sharp edges of neighbouring blocks 4. Flying Star facing directions of each of the potential stacks or units 5. White Pollution from road noise, bus stops etc... 6. Potential missing c…

In this example, luckily, no homes were built at the marking in RED x 3. There should be sufficient space for a plot at each of these three RED X's but, certainly such plots again, under Shapes and Forms are considered inauspicious.
