2. Link:
All available information on Rio Vista can be found under their website:
http://www.riovista.com.sg
3. Floor plans can be found here:-
http://www.riovista.com.sg/media/floorplans.pdf
4. When I first was given a copy of the layout, yes, you had guessed correctly, I flip and flip and saw what you had observed.
5. Yes, this is truly a "unique" development in that majority of the units (other than very few e.g. some penthouse do not have toilet at the centrepoint). Otherwise all, 2 rooms, 2 rooms with study, 3 and more rooms practically have toilet at the centrepoint.
It has more than 700 units, quite a hefty number of units.
6. On the positive side:
6.1 Internal site plan is acceptable i.e. block arrangements are overall OK.
6.2 The development is quite parallel to Sungei Serangoon river. The only drawback that it would be better if water flows from `east to west' rather than `west to east' to take advantage of the Dragon Gate concept. For more details, please search for " The Tropica " condominium on this Dragon Gate concept.
6.3 Often, toilet in the centrepoint is only 1 leak. It would be more prudent, therefore, if one to buy here to take extra care in selecting units that `suit' the breadwinner. - To lessen or further reduce - incidence of more leaks.
More:
Given it's location; most likely, it would largely appeal more to HDB upgraders - perhaps living near-by.
Price:
When it was first launched, price range between $440 to $490 (depending on the floor level).
Often, p.s.f. for units with Personal Enclosed Space hover at a low of $430 range.
This year, especially units with PES can be purchased even lower at $390 p.s.f or thereabouts.
If one purchase it, most likely, it is meant more - to stay rather than for rent or investment.
In my opinion, if the price falls to a range of $380 p.s.f, this is a `fair price' to pay.
Given that, in the forseeable future; perhaps 20 years from now, with ageing population; Singaporeans could only dream of being "asset rich" but "cash poor". Since, such 99 year leases (without anything special about it) may fetch (in my opinion) rock bottom price of only $300-$330 p.s.f. depending on unit/floor even adjusting for inflation.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil

1. Honestly, as all of us know, for an apartment, there is no way we can relocate a toilet.
2. In previous forum messages, I had mentioned that often it takes more than 3 or more MAJOR"leaks" to make the Feng Shui negative in a home or apartment.
3. Thus, a toilet at the centre of the apartment is considered as just ONE MAJORleak.
4. Therefore, in your case, if you are applying Feng Shui; then make sure that your apartment has no more than 2 or more MAJOR leaks.
5. The most sensible approach or rather common sense approach is to read up the following:-
The Concept of Maximizing Marks
