Just realized I made a mistake in computing my cash flow. The mistake is big enough to deserve a mention in today’s post. So, what is it? Property loans. There are two portions of a property loan: interest and principal repayment. I had correctly computed my rental income and deducted all the estimated expenses — […] The post Cory Diary : Mistake in Computing Cash Flow for Property first appeared on TheFinance.sg.

For many Singaporeans, homes in the Outside-Central Region (OCR) have long been the bread-and-butter choice of private property. It’s seen as the sensible, mass-market segment; condos here are defined by practicality, affordability, and the aspirations of HDB upgraders. But here’s the eyebrow-raiser: the once-distinct price gulf between the OCR and more “prime” areas is disappearing. […] The post Are Singapore’s Suburban Condos Still Affordable?

There’s a bit of irony in District 15, in that – while it’s known for smaller boutique condos – it’s also known for large private land parcels, like this one at Goodman Road. This is a newly furnished bungalow sitting on a massive 16,424 sq ft of freehold land (close to three tennis courts), with […] The post Rare 16,000 Sq ft Freehold Plot In D15 Hits The Market For $39M first appeared on TheFinance.sg.

The FIRE movement, short for Financial Independence, Retire Early, is attracting more people who want freedom from the traditional 9-to-5 grind.
