How much for studio apartment on 'red MRT line' up to Yishun

[frenzal]

As the topic states. How much should I expect to pay for a studio apartment situated on the red line? My preference would be around Ang Mo Kio, but would consider any distance up to 20mins away from Orchard.

Cheers

firstly, there's not much "studio" apartment in singapore. secondly, you are looking to rent or buy?

[frenzal]

yes, i know that unfortunately there aren't many studios i just don't like the idea of being an adult but living with other people. i like my privacy.

i am looking at renting (and not spending too much money on rental)

lots of views, no replies. any price estimates would be welcome. also would be interested in estimates on 1 bedroom apartments (as long as i dont have to share with others)

Not many studios around, you'd probably have to look at 2 rooms, ranges from $3,000 onwards. Not many condos in Ang Mo Kio area, except maybe Grandeur 8 and Nuovo. The rest are old or are cluster houses.

Good considerations are Toa Payoh (Trellis Towers 1 room available but limited units), Yishun and Bishan.

Or just get an HDB -- plenty of those along the North-South Line, and rentals are cheaper than condos.

thanks. looks like it'd have to be an HDB. $3,000 for a single person who's going to be a grad is a bit too much :p
