Some Thoughts on the Projects:

1. Being the only Condo in Sims Drive area, you will face literally no direct competition from nearby projects to fight for tenants. And once the nearby plot of land launched for bid, Sims Urban Oasis will enjoy 1st mover advantage in terms of pricing.

2. Buyers who are sensitive to noise, may consider the non-PIE facing units. For 2 bedroom and bigger units, there are still units with quieter facing to choose from at the moment.

3. The project's 80% car park lots provision should not cause a big concern, as half of the units are for investment purposes. Majority of the tenants do not drive. Even for own stay buyers, taking public transport may be a better option than driving due to it's superior public transport connectivity.

4. The layout for the development is rather efficient, as all the bedrooms, including common bedrooms, can fit in queen size bed. 3-bedroom with a size over 1,000sqf at city fringe location is considered decent in today's market. Buyers who have limited budget can choose more compact 3-bedroom layout, i.e. 818sqf or 958sqf.

5. People who associate D14 with Red light district and have hesitation, can go to the actual site to take a look. The location is a good distance from the run-down and seedy part of Geylang, yet it's not that far either to enjoy the best that Geylang is to provide, near to town and great variety of good food to savor.
