HDB Major Upgrading

[ehocrys]

Dear Master Lee
Pls advise if the HDB major upgrading will change a flat from a period 7 to period 8?
Major Upgrading involves redo the 2 toilets, change of grille gate, change of windows and window grilles.
The rest of the house remains the same. Will the above change the period of my flat?
Pls kindly advise.
Thank You

Dear Emily,

In my opinion, we still need to use visual - sight and smell

Athough smell may vary during the day and when a dumpster pass-by.

But, often, one way of looking at is is a walk-thru of the neighbourhood. Such as climbing up the stairs to the unit.

In many instances, both the exterior an interior should often "match".

For example, if the exteriorof the home, after the upgrading looks prestine or new, but if one's interior is pretty old (worn-out) etc.. Clues can come from the toilet(s), the kitchen and the living area.

If the interior has not been upgraded, it is an important clue that only the exterior has "changed". It is much like proverb of an apple: "an apple may look beautiful outside -- but it could be rotten inside".

Generally, both the inside of a home and outside should "feel new". If not, or one of them does not feel so, then, it is most likely, the apartment remains under the old period.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
