Build-to-Order (BTO) exercises are always highly anticipated among first-time homeowners. But we think this round of BTO in…
BTO launches are pretty standard. There are some good ones and some not-so-good ones in a single BTO launch. But this upcoming Nov 2020 BTO is not your typical BTO launch. That’s because almost all the choices you have in this BTO launch will make you want to apply for all of them, making you spoilt for choice.
The Sembawang BTO will be located in between Sembawang MRT and Canberra MRT. It will be among the many condos that have sprung up in Canberra.
The fact that this BTO will be two streets away (10 minute walk) from the town centre in Sembawang makes it a convenient location for those looking to live in the North. You also have a plethora of delicious food options at the nearby Sembawang Shopping Centre and Sembawang shophouses.
It is a viable choice for those who are looking to live in the North. The only concern is the relatively small number of units that are split between 2-room Flexi, 3-room, 4-room and 5-room flats.
Following Sembawang BTO, Tengah BTO is another one that is going to be located in between two MRT stations (Hong Kah MRT and Tengah Plantation MRT). Both of these MRTs will only be up and running in 2026/2027.
Those who are planning to apply for Tengah BTO will likely have to bear with not having MRT services for around a year. Apart from that, you also have to bear with the noise and dust coming from the MRT construction.
But in return, you will get an HDB home that is in an upcoming estate with close proximity to not just one, but two MRT stations.
For Easties who are looking for a new home, you will be glad to know that there will be one in Tampines. As most of central Tampines is already saturated, the location of this BTO will be nearer to Bedok reservoir, i.e. in between Bedok Reservoir MRT and Tampines West MRT on the Downtown Line (DTL).
Nature lovers and sports enthusiasts will like that it is close to Bedok Reservoir where you can have your recreational activities. The closest MRT and food places will take you around 10 minutes by foot (600m), which is still convenient.
Another BTO that is expected to be drawing a lot of interest among new homeowners is this Toa Payoh BTO. Both plots of lands in the Toa Payoh BTO offers close proximity to the MRT station and good schools in the vicinity. While both plots of land are away from the centre of Toa Payoh, they are still pretty good locations in a mature estate like Toa Payoh.
For every BTO exercise, there is going to be a hot favourite that is bound to be oversubscribed. For the previous BTO in August, it was Dakota (Kallang). For this upcoming BTO in November, it’s this Bishan BTO. Here’s why.
Having a BTO itself in a mature estate like Bishan is rare. Not just that, the location of this Bishan BTO is very desirable. It is located right next to Sky Habitat and puts you within 500m of Junction 8 and the Bishan interchange. From good schools to interchange to shopping malls, you have everything you need for a great place to stay.
Plus, with over 1,500 units up for ballot, you might stand a good chance of getting a unit. It is no wonder why this Bishan BTO will be the crown jewel of the November BTO exercise.
