Overall I would say my unit is acceptable. Acceptable in the sense that there is no major structural defect. However, there were quite a number of minor defects such as hairline crack, wall paintings and flooring timber strips to touch up, plaster ceiling not levelled, etc, etc.
We spotted 2 areas with watermarks on my LG floor. We of course highlighted this to the site supervisor. He admitted that there was a leakage before and he has patched up but they forgot to repaint the affected area. I do hope that it is indeed true, else water leakages within your wall can be the BIGGEST headache! I will be on a close look-out on these 2 spots as we have 18 months from date of VP to get them to rectify till we are satisfied.
I will leave you with part of the defects we spotted at our home.
The developer will need about 2-3 weeks to rectify the defects. Meanwhile we will use the timeframe to meet up with potential contractors or ID companies to plan and come up with some costings on how much it will costs us to renovate our home.The design of our home is such that it does not need any extension front or back or any hacking of wall, etc. So this alone woul d have saved us quite a bit on the so-called renovation. Most of the costs involved would be to enhance the property, new furniture and fittings, etc.
Overall I love my new home and I will load up some pics of the overall home tomorrow. Its pretty spacious and with a grand ceiling height on the living room, it gives the place a tinge of grandeur and airyness to the house. See ya tomorrow!

Hi, first time to your blog and congratulation on getting your new home soon.. :) Its always tedious to deal with developer on the defective period, but make sure you fully utilised the 12 / 18 months period to make the necessary complains.

Hi Family first, there's always bound to be some small errors and defects with new homes.
As long as there's a warranty and good developer, you should be fine.
Our homes here have no exterior pain, but colored bricks instead as our frigid Winters will tear off the pain.
Nice homes I see in your pic.
You have a good week, keep well, Lee.
