Marcus Chua and Irene Ng, a couple planning to get married, are exploring options to purchase their first home in Singapore.
They are particularly interested in landed properties due to the privacy and space they offer.
However, they are also considering condominiums for their amenities and security.
Marcus, an engineer, is keen on understanding the zoning and development controls, while Irene, a financial analyst, is focused on the investment potential and financing options.
They have a budget of SGD 2.5 million and are considering areas like Bukit Timah and Serangoon Gardens.
They are also aware of the cooling measures in place and want to ensure they make a sound investment.
They consult Amy Lim, a property agent from Lim & Partners Realty, to guide them through the process.
