Due to the prime location, it won&#8217;t be difficult to attract tenants. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Good for:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who, for whatever reason, find it inconvenient to travel long distances to get groceries, bank services, restaurants, etc. Because Toa Payoh Central is also the major commercial hub of the neighbourhood, just about anything you need is right outside; it&#8217;s practically a self-sustaining enclave.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8182\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/million-dollar-HDB-Toa-payoh.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/million-dollar-HDB-Toa-payoh.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/million-dollar-HDB-Toa-payoh-940x503.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This unit is also good for those who aspire to play landlord at some point.

The Bishan MRT station is about a seven minute walk away, and the area around the station is packed with amenities. You&#8217;ll find coffee shops, small retail shops, and of course Junction 8 (the major mall that&#8217;s next to the MRT station).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s also just the right distance away from Junction 8: far enough to be spared the road congestion, but not out of strolling range.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Good for:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who want their children to be near Raffles Institution.

This means it&#8217;s also close to Parkway Parade mall, which is the main retail area for the neighbourhood. Parkway Parade has both Giant <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Cold Storage, which to Singaporeans would make returning to the Garden of Eden unnecessary. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it&#8217;s quite far from any MRT stations, this is another area that&#8217;s one of those &#8220;self-contained&#8221; enclaves. You can live for here months without leaving home, and not feel bored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Good for:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who absolutely hate having to travel to town, or to some distant mall, for children&#8217;s tuition \/ dinner outside \/ grocery shopping. This also has interesting prospects from an investment perspective: the stretch of road outside Mercure Hotel (and hence quite close to this flat) is already being drilled to make way for a new MRT station. This could be a real hotspot once that&#8217;s done. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>A quick recap on the changes in CPF housing grants<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the Singapore Budget 2017, it was announced that the existing amounts for the CPF housing grants for resale flats will be increased, from $30,000 to $50,000 for first-time applicants looking to buy 4-room or smaller HDB flats, and from $30,000 to $40,000 for 5-room flats and bigger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These changes in the CPF housing grants are certainly welcoming news for first time home buyers, especially when purchasing a home in one Asia\u2019s most expensive housing markets. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With an added $20,000 in subsidies for
