Thomson Reserve: should you reserve a unit, or reserve your judgement? 😏

11,800 people queued to see it. I went too, and I’ve got thoughts, babies 👀

✅ The pros
❌ The cons
🏡 Full showflat tour: 2, 3, 4 & 5-bedders

From $2,608 psf. Worth it?

**LUCERNE GRAND. HOW GRAND IS IT? 👀**

$2,251 psf starting price sounds… grand in Jurong Lakeside. 💸

But psf alone means NOTHING.

The real question is: compared to what?

SORA? LakeGarden? Resale? Older condos nearby?

Because yes, Lucerne Grand has some things going for it — **new launch + CDL + MRT accessibility + extension of the mature Jurong township**.

But that doesn’t mean *BUY BUY BUY*. 😂

And honestly, the layout is where I started paying more attention on why not.

But before you FOMO because someone tells you *“next year will be more expensive”*…

Go look at resale.

Because sometimes you don’t need BRAND NEW.

Especially if “new everything” comes with **everything except a new salary.** 💀

My verdict: Not exactly the best but not the worst either.

It’s about finding the unit type where the numbers actually make sense.

Would you rather buy Lucerne Grand or resale? 🤔

💨 WELCOME TO MAMA JOO’S ONLY (ONE) FAN 💨
Where I blow your property problems away. 😮‍💨

This week’s episode: 3 big fat juicy headliners

🏠 HDB: 15-month wait-out period lifted — resale price surge incoming? Meanwhile, million-dollar flats are still heating up, with Bedok overtaking Queenstown in million-dollar flat growth.

🔥 NEW LAUNCHES: Amberwood moves slower than expected at $3,000 psf, while Lucerne Grand, Thomson Reserve & CDL’s Lakeside blockbuster prepare to enter the ring.

And if you think Thomson Reserve is launching at $2,600–$2,700 psf… ?????

Land prices at Jalan Puntong may suggest developers at Thomson Reserve may price up— I’m breaking down the numbers and asking the question:

Are we buying the property thirst trap? 👀

Update post the removal of the 15 months wait out period- Single-poreans are now the biggest movers post that news. Do you agree?

Biggest winners and losers from Singapore’s latest property patch update 🎮🏠

The 15-month wait-out period is gone… but the game is not over yet.

This only affects resale HDB, not first-time BTO buyers or MOP.

The real question who wins and who loses?

With a massive wave of BTOs reaching MOP over the next few years, is this Ah Gong’s way of rebalancing the housing game?

🎮 Mama Joo is always on your team and ready to tank the game for you.
