It took just three days, after viewing what would be his future home, for Wong Jing Yean, 32, to place a bid of $1.07 million — the highest bid for the Bishan HDB flat — on April 7.
The unit is one of the 480 in Natura Loft, a Design, Build and Sell Share (DBSS) project at Bishan Street 24. Located on the 20th storey, it comes with a panoramic view of the city skyline. The 5-room apartment spans a spacious 1,300 sq ft too, SRX reported.
The search for this unit had not been a walk in the park for Wong. Having to hunt for houses as the Covid-19 pandemic grew in severity before the circuit breaker meant reduced viewings in order to abide by social distance requirements, he told The Straits Times.
It took viewing up to 20 five-room flats and maisonettes ranging between 1,300 sq ft and 1,700 sq ft in size before Wong and his wife, 32-year-old Chee Suet Yee, were able to find their dream home.
