Reflections

Time flies. Time really flies fast.....

Lots of unpleasant events had happened for the past ten months. What I hoped for did not materialized. Whatever events I encountered were in fact disappointment and setback. Setback after setback. Time wasted....

Still have 2 more months before saying bye bye to 2012 and welcoming 2013. Hopefully the last 2 months of the year 2012, nov and dec bring me good news.

Owners of S$1.77m condo unit are a young couple

 SINGAPORE: Channel NewsAsia understands that the owners of the record-setting Heron Bay penthouse are a young couple, who are also first-time property buyers.

The unit was sold for S$1.77 million - a high price for an executive condominium in Singapore.

Couples cannot exceed a monthly household income of S$12,000 if they want to buy an executive condominium unit.

Analysts say the buyers of the five-bedroom, over 2,800 square-foot penthouse, while not exceeding the income criteria, are likely to come from wealthy backgrounds.

To date, more than 90 per cent of Heron Bay has been sold, since it was launched last week.

"Although the penthouse is priced at more than a million dollars, I think it's still value for money," said Micheal Tan, the executive director of Ho Lee Group. "Condominiums of such a size, such a (view), such a location, will cost you even more."

The project by Serangoon EC, a joint venture company between CNH Investment, Evia Real Estate Management, Ho Lee Group and See Hup Seng, received more than four times the number of e-applicants for its 394 units.

The condominium is located at Upper Serangoon View.

Units in the project - which is expected to obtain a temporary occupation permit (TOP) in 2016 - sold for an average selling price of S$725 per square foot.

Mr Leslie Lim, Managing Partner of EVIA Real Estate Management, attributed Heron Bay's popularity to its product differentiation, saying it added "luxury touches" to mass housing.

The development has five-bedroom units and features such as ensuite private pool-cum-jacuzzis or gardens, fish ponds for ground-floor units and complimentary fibre broadband service for the first year of occupancy.

Kari Jobe - Love Came Down






Lyrics:
If my heart is overwhelmed
And i cannot hear your voice
I hold on to what is true
Though i cannot see

If the storms of life they come
And the road ahead gets steep
I will lift these hands in faith
I will believe

I'll remind myself
Of all that you've done
And the life i have
Because of your son

Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am yours
Lord i'm forever yours
Mountains high or valley low
I sing out and remind my soul
I am yours
I am forever yours

When my heart is filled with hope
Every promise comes my way
When i feel your hands of grace
Rest upon me

Staying desperate for you, god
Staying humble at your feet
I will lift these hands in praise
I will believe

I'll remind myself
Of all that you've done
And the life i have
Because of your son

Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am yours
I am forever yours
Mountains high or valley low
I sing out and remind my soul
I am yours
I am forever yours

I am yours
I am yours
All my days
Jesus, i am yours
[x2]

Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am yours
I am forever your's
Mountains high or valley low
I sing out and remind my soul
I am yours
I am forever yours
[x2]

Yeah, i am yours, i'm yours, i am yours
Jesus i am yours
