in reality, no much difference between freehold and leasehold..just think, how long can someone survive>

I heard from an pro investor, earthwork and piling actually took about 1/3 of the total time in construction. So if the construction is 3 yrs .. expect them to spend 1 year in piling and earthwork alone, because it is the most important part in construction that supporting your whole building.

This one you don't need to worry, as long as the entry price is low, when you let go sure got people want. This is small case compared to abandon project. As long as the project is not abandoned, you will be able to let it go. Targetted sub-sale when it completes should in the region of 280k-400k if current economy is still the same.

I'm very sure that a lot of people can AFFORD a 280k unit.

So no need to worry about that
