If we look at a HDB e.g. priced at $500,000. And since the lease is 99 years. If we look at this perspective of renting 99 years from the government, this will equate around $5,050/ year which is around $420/month. Hmmm?

Not sure what is the question about? Even though the HDB lease is for 99 years, do you foresee you will live through the 99 years lease? It may be for some but not for majority, most people bought their first home at age 20+ near 30?

Is there a significant difference between HDB and Private Condominium of 99 years lease old? Both expire in 99 years, the government will take back when the lease is up. What do you think?

When is buying a public housing in Singapore (since HDB lease is 99 years) a bad investment?

Do you think now is the time to invest on condo for staying and release it after 5 years. (unable to buy HDB now). Plan on staying SG for at MOST 5 years only.Think it will not be worth of renting 5 years. Any 2 cents? Thanks ?

In the current economic climate is it better to get a 5 year fixed interest home loan or 2 year fixed interest and re price on the 3rd? E.g 5 year 1.5% Vs 2 years 1.28% from DBS?

Can review my portfolio? 1) IWDA: $10,000 (invested beginning of this year,2020) DCA monthly: $1,500 2) STI ETF: $18,000 ( invested since 2018, having a loss) 3) Unit Trust: $10,000, (value: $11,000). Any suggestions?
