Punggol Residence

Finally, in 4+yrs time, we will own our OWN home. At long last, a place to call 'OUR HOUSE' or 'OUR HOME'.

It is located at Punggol and when we went to select the unit at HDB Hub, it was like as we looked at the available units left, this particular unit number just appeared so fondly to us both at the same time that we said the unit number at the same time. So since both of us had the same unit in mind, we confirmed that very unit and it was available even by the time it was our turn to choose.

Ok, we will put the first deposit in 4mths. A whooping SGD20K from our CPF! The total cost of the house would be SGD309K and I guess it is ok considering that in future we will be near the MRT station, Bus interchange and a shoppping mall would be built.

Anyway, my in laws suggested we keep this good news from the PRC woman as they fear that she will pester my brother in law more persistantly for a house due to jealousy. I heard they have been applying few times only to fail in getting a chance to choose a flat. I am not sure about this but I have a gut feeling that is perhaps because the PRC just got her PR and moreover she ain't earning a single cent being jobless, thus, the government is 'clever' not to allow them to have a chance to have a flat unless their combine income is more as well as stable. Serve him right for marrying a jobless PRC woman who is dying to get a flat of her own... Serve him right also for being an irresponsible husband to his ex-wife, therefore causing a divorce, leading to him having to give up a perfectly furnished home. Maybe the government is also considering the fact that he has ever 'disposed' of a flat unit before that hence, slower the application process for him. Whatever! None of my concern, as long as they move out asap!
