We all like to accuse the govt of being heartless problem causing etc. But let's look at the issue objectively.

1. These 4 room flat kena SERS are 43yo flats with 56yrs compensated at $450K.

2 The new flats are $550+K...Market value as AMK is a good location.

3. The price gap is due to the difference in lease which is 99yrs for the new flats vs 56yrs left for old flats

4. It's a very good deal for those who can afford to top up ...as for 100K they turn their old flats into fresh lease. Those old flats with less than 60yrs left normally very hard to sell as buyer cannot get loan.

5. For those who cannot afford.... they can sell to a buyer and there are many who want a new flat through SERS. They can use the proceeds to  buy the same type of old flat near by ...they can make a profit as their old flat will fetch a higher price boosted by SERS 

To do a 1 old for 1 new change of flat is not fair as taxpayers will be losing 100+K ....and giving away free lease extensions and disproportionate amounts of money...

this is forced en-bloc.
you expect the couple to live another 99 years?

[Lukongsimi]

This will force many to downgrade

[grotesqueness]

99 years lease property managed by monopoly ponzi scheme

[RiseofAsia]

This will force many to downgrade

Song Boh!
They voted for this. Dont complain.
This greedy team is out of touch.

I believe once the lease has ended… Many Laokokoks will sleep on the street.

Partly PAP also not stupid come GE is the matters of getting votes.

- they will just extend the lease for HDB flat reach 99 . I doubt any more land to build new BTO flats to replace existing old HDB flats, just see yourself already quite compact in Old estate on top also got New BTO flats

OR by that time they again demolish somewhere the buildings build and build .

HDB should allow the couple to buy new BTO with shorter lease.

e.g, new 4 room BTO with only 50 year lease at half the price.

then they will have at least $200,000 in the bank as a result of SERS.

[Scythian]

..

Elderly can try crowdfunding..

Otherwise be beggar's

Pay $100K more for a smaller space unit. Is it worth it?


Maybe and maybe not.


For those who recently bought one and renovated it like a private unit will lose money big time.

[teaserteam]

They must be some other deals or options available for the elderly. The Stirrers should turn to helpers to get the best deal for the elderly

Singapore so rich

Govt can pay $100k on behalf
