depends on what are your objectives for this investment...
rental income or capital appreciation or both...
or to park excess cash money into property for long term to hedge against inflation..
or for your children education funds or house for them..
or planing as your retirement home in the near future...
but not for short term gain as new township are not for short term gains, they are mid to long term as they need the time to mature and infra and commies to setup..
hope this helps...

Lets say a purchase in SEH 2 is 550k. Assuming that you have undertaken a 35 years mortgage at 90% LTV. Your monthly repayment to the bank would be 2.5k.
Understand that new township requires a mid term to long term holding power. Below are some scenarios of holding cost without rental as we are very well aware of the situation here. Let's just ignore the other ad hoc cost in the scenarios below.
5 years (mid term) : holding cost without rental : 2.5k x 60 = 150k.
10 years (long term) : holding cost without rental : 2.5k x 120 = 300k.
Let's hope the 550k seh 2 house will appreciate till at least 750k to breakeven in 5 years time. Not to forget those misc cost and also I'm sure you would want to walk away with some profit too. 900k in 5 years time doable? Let's not use the word doable but can it be transacted at 900k in 5 years time..
I'm bullish towards the commercials here but I've missed the boat. Sigh.. waiting for the new commie launches!!
