Just ask around &#8211; you\u2019ll find at least two or three people who will explain how the neighbour\u2019s German Shepherd caused their property price to fall. Here are a couple of gems:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><b>We think columbariums can lower property value<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Back in December 2014, the residents of the HDB BTO project Fernvale Lea objected to the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/singapore\/housing\/future-residents-of-fernvale-lea-bto-in-sengkang-west-surprised-by-columbarium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">building of a columbarium<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> near their development with a petition. Some even went to the extent of asking HDB for a refund. After the government intervened, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/singapore\/future-fernvale-lea-residents-mostly-relieved-over-no-go-for-commercial-columbarium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the columbarium project was&#8230; ahem&#8230; killed<\/a>, but many residents are<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">still disturbed<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by the temple that&#8217;ll instead be built there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now there are a number of reasons for the initial uproar, but the most noteworthy was the worry regarding the smoke from cremated bodies. Little did these residents know that the place where bodies are burned is called a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">crematorium, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">not a columbarium<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for the remains of the dead being nearby, here\u2019s two things you should know: <strong>First, you probably have neighbours who keep an urn with the ashes of their loved ones at home.<\/strong> You see, columbarium niches are crazy expensive in Singapore. Government-run columbaria charge between $500 to $900 per niche, with a $250 charge for choosing a different space than what\u2019s allocated. Private columbaria can charge up to $30,000.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18276\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18276\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18276 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/property-value-columbarium-price.jpg\" alt=\"Property Value Columbarium Price Singapore\" width=\"700\" height=\"514\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18276\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The price list of a private columbarium in Singapore.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, odds are that there\u2019s someone living near you who\u2019s keeping that urn in the house, while they save up for a columbarium niche space for their departed. Some of them may even decide to hold on to it indefinitely. If you take that perspective, you\u2019ll realise there shouldn\u2019t <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">be<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> uncomfortable about having a columbarium next to you \u2014 there are dead people <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">everywhere.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, let\u2019s not forget Bishan used to be a giant cemetery. It was, on top of that, the<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.asiaone.com\/singapore\/bishan-was-site-bloody-wwii-battle\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">site of a massive, gore-drenched battle<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in World War II. The impact on property prices? Almost zilch; Bishan is posting <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/bishan-hdb-resale-flats\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">remarkable HDB resale transaction figures<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/bidadari-flats-most-sought-after-in-recent-bto-exercise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bidadari<\/a>, a neighbourhood receiving plenty of hype and poised to be the next Bishan, was a cemetery as recently as a decade ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> We think nursing homes can lower property value<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speaking of Bishan, the residents of Bishan East protested the opening of a nursing home in the neighbourhood back in 2012. This was on the basis that it would \u201cblock their air flow\u201d. A reason that, if seriously applied, would require each HDB block to stand amidst vast stretches of open ground, like some medieval castle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the same year, residents in Toh Yi expressed unhappiness, at the idea of<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stproperty.sg\/articles-property\/hdb\/hdb-stands-firm-on-flats-for-elderly-in-toh-yi-area\/a\/51641\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">studio apartments for the elderly<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> being constructed nearby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2013, the same thing happened in Yew Tee. Residents complained that the nursing home would cause traffic congestion in the area, and block their view. <strong>It&#8217;s an argument that would have been strangely absent if the new building was to be a shopping mall or another block of flats.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, at least their reason isn\u2019t something offensive, like claiming old people would be groaning into their homes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c\u2026<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stproperty.sg\/articles-property\/singapore-property-news\/no-to-nursing-home-say-bishan-residents\/a\/67776\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the old folk will be groaning right into my<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">home<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d &#8211; 41 year old resident Bernard Lau<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16828\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16828\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16828\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/elderly-home-property-value.jpg\" alt=\"elderly home property value\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/elderly-home-property-value.jpg 1183w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/elderly-home-property-value-940x705.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16828\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chances are, these folks are living a great life in newer nursing homes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, like it or not, we can tell you why it won\u2019t affect your property value: By 2030, it\u2019s planned that every<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">neighbourhood will have a community for its elderly. It may not be <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">called <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a nursing home because of the bizarre aversion some residents have towards it, but that\u2019s pretty much what it is. And with it being in every community, all things are now equal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you think living next to the elderly is somehow inconvenient, by the way, you clearly haven\u2019t lived in a student dormitory. Uncle Teo and Auntie Quek aren\u2019t the ones hosting the 3am dubstep parties, that\u2019s for sure.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> We think foreign worker dormitories can lower property value<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Back in October 2008, the residents of the \u2014 predominantly upper-middle class \u2014 area of Serangoon Gardens protested the presence of a foreign worker dormitory. The main concerns were safety: some residents complained that their maid, daughter, poodle, etc. would feel unsafe walking near foreign workers. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You know, the ones who are <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sg.news.yahoo.com\/crime-among-foreign-workers-is-lower-than-in-101239278.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">less likely to commit crimes than local Singaporeans<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This isn\u2019t to say residents are prejudiced against <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">foreigners. Notice there isn\u2019t much discomfort in, say, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/far-east-holland-village-extension\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Holland Village<\/a>, an neighbourhood and lifestyle enclave popular with expatriates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the end, the government responded to concerns by residents in Serangoon Gardens by lowering the capacity of foreign workers in the planned dormitory, from 1,000 to 600. Oh no, the property values!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fine, let\u2019s look at the prices of landed properties in Serangoon Gardens properties between 2008 to the present: thanks to the presence of foreign workers, it has gone from an average per square foot (psf) price of $596 to\u2026uhh, $1,167 \u2014 an increase of 95.8% in a ten-year period.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18274\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/property-value-serangoon-gardens.jpg\" alt=\"Property Value Serangoon Gardens\" width=\"733\" height=\"472\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking a look at properties in Serangoon Gardens that are within 500 metres of the dormitory, there were 192 transactions showing that the average psf price has gone up by 88.1% ($687 to $1,293) over the past ten years. Now, considering that the average psf price gain for landed properties for the whole of Singapore is 90.8% in the past ten years, <strong>the belief that nearby foreign worker dormitories cause property values to fall is misguided at best, and malicious at worst.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Do you think these buildings really affect property value?
