#65: Rejuvenation of Jurong, The Potential of Woodlands & Evaluating Foreign Property Investments
Manage episode 418695970 series 2936301
The NOTG team continues their discussion with infrastructure development and its influence on property investment decisions. This week, they focus on regional developments, beginning with the impact of the cancelled high-speed rail project between Malaysia and Singapore and the premature hype it generated. They also explore the potential of Woodlands, highlighting the notable appreciation in property prices there over the past few years.
In an interesting segment, Melvin raises a few scenarios to the rest about investing in properties in neighbouring countries, given the appeal of foreign properties with lower entry barriers, their lower value, and the advantage of Singapore’s stronger currency. Tune in to hear what Joan, Grayce, and George have to say on this very interesting episode of Nuggets On The Go!
