DEAR FIRST TIME BUYERS,
BTO?
Resale HDB?
Executive Condominium (EC)?
Private Condo?
Are you having many thoughts but unsure
WHICH OPTION IS THE BEST FOR YOU?
AFTERALL, THIS IS YOUR FIRST BIGGEST PURCHASE IN YOUR LIFE AND WILL BE YOUR DETERMINING FACTOR TO HOW EASY YOU CAN UPGRADE / RETIRE IN THE FUTURE!
It is important to make the right choice.
So that your first property can be your
STEPPING STONE to your next house.
Many First Time Buyers have a lot of thoughts when it comes to deciding what should their first property be.
Have you ever seen some people fast track and yet some have to go one big round?
So why is it that some people of the same age and same income level can have such different outcomes, where one can own 2 properties and yet another one ended with 1 property throughout his lifetime?
With proper planning and risk assessment done correctly, owning the right FIRST property can help you build a FINANCIALLY SECURE FUTURE!
Common questions every first time buyers will have

Hi, I am Yvonne Lai!
Property is my passion and I enjoy helping my clients plan their property journey and search for their dream home and investment units! Throughout my years of experience in the Real Estate industry, I have seen how housing has become the most important asset planning in everyone's life as property is the most expensive investment in our lives! This is why I dedicate my time to assist all my clients to kickstart their property planning by sharing with them the Do's and Don'ts, helping them spot value buys, planning a long term 5 to 10 years plan for them and eventually manage their property portfolios so that they can grow their wealth by owning the right assets.
It is my goal and passion to share with all of you on the importance of growing one's wealth through strategic property planning, and why if you can, you definitely should you start early so that all my clients are well prepared to retire comfortably. I deal in mainly Residential Properties, both HDB and Condos, including Buying, Selling, and Renting. Most importantly, I provide a seamless one-stop service to help all my clients move houses smoothly, making sure the timeline matches, when they sell and buy another house, and most importantly ensuring their finances, are accounted for before they commit to the purchase.
If you would like to find out what your best options are and their pros and cons, you are looking at the right person. I will be sharing with you my unbias opinions after meeting up with you and understanding your situation and needs. After my thorough evaluation and our discussion, the decision is then yours to make on how you would like to kickstart your property journey. Then I will be there at every step of the way to guide you through!
Here are some of my Happy Clients-turned-friends!
