The dream of owning one’s home is a universal dream it seems – albeit an elusive and tricky one. To buy? Or to rent? To jump in now, or to wait?
With property prices seemingly going inexorably up, amid talk of unit sizes going down, TODAY asks some Singaporeans whether they think property is still a good buy.
We also checked out two property launches in Pasir Ris to see what the market mood was – the executive condominium (EC) project, Watercolours, on Pasir Ris Avenue 4, and Pasir Ris One, a Design, Build and Sell Scheme (DBSS) development.

Cab driver William Kok took this video at 9.50am from the dashboard camera of his cab this morning, after a taxi burst into flames close to the entrance of the CTE tunnel at Cavenagh Road, engulfing drivers in thick black smoke.
The taxi driver escaped unharmed and the burning cab had no passenger.
The SCDF quenched the blaze within 15 mins of arrival and the CTE tunnel was closed, being eventually reopened at approximately 12.45pm, although during that time, traffic became reportedly backed up as far away as the CTE junction on Braddell Road.
