Those who live in condo - almost there
Those who live in a landed property - you've arrived and indeed a somebody. Only 5% of Singaporeans live in a landed property
Work harder to be a somebody in your life |
I agree completely to this.
This is the best gauge of whether you've arrived in Singapore.
Nothing else can show your status than saying you live in a landed property.
Wish i can purchase a landed property one day in the future!

There are lots of landed houses under 2 mio. Do a search in propertyguru.

Many people and agents are predicting prices will go beyond $2m and above once the area is fully developed. Any price below $2m today is a bargain. I think about 20 units now selling below $2m.

Thanks for the tips.

I have worked for 5 years. Saving for downpayment to buy a resale HDB. After I buy the flat, after a few years, I can sell and buy a landed property if my career takes off. Looks like landed is the way to go for the top performing Singaporeans.
