Has anyone done any analysis to confirm that buying EC and selling it 5/10 years later will definitely make a profit (minus off mortgage loans etc.)?

If buying an EC guarantees a profit everytime, then everyone will be rushing into it.

Furthermore, profit is calculated by the opportunity cost that you incur. For instance, if the annualised yield is only 3%, does that bring significant value?

All things considered, there is always a risk-return measure for every investment, including the purchase of a property.

Here is everything about me and what I do best.

Should I make partial repayment to my HDB loan now if I intend to sell my flat in the next few years and buy a resale, BTO or EC?

I will most probably be buying a house in 4-5 years time. Would you advice to save up the house fund in bank or buy safe stocks and sell it 4-5 years later to fund for housing expense (reno etc.)?

I’m single and intend to buy resale flat in the next year or so, using bank loan. What if I pass away subsequently, without making a will? Who will continue to bear the liability of mortgage payment?

I have invested in a few unit trusts and currently have gained about 20% in returns. During the covid19 situation, it went down to about 6% in returns. I thought of selling it and buying again to 'secure' the profit. Has anyone done it?

Does it make sense to earn money from buying GBP and JPY now to sell later on as they are at a all time low against SGD? Has anyone tried?
