We settled all the administrative procedures at Hdb hub this morning. We had to buy our fire insurance, sign plenty of Hdb documents, pay our first time town council fees and start our SP services. G's parents and my mum came along to accompany us. Before we made our way to Punggol Emerald, we bought some oranges, muffins and joss sticks for our first time open door ceremony =D
Our ID and air con guy were already there when we arrived. Before everyone stepped in, G and I did the honor of burning some joss sticks and rolling the pineapple into our home with a super loud 'huat ah!'. And then we were in!
Felt kinda surreal to see our new home. It's small and cosy, like I expected it to be (thanks to all our neighbors who posted their pictures on facebook). It's good enough for G + I and of course our baby too!
Living room was just nice for us and it was bright and to our pleasant surprise, quite windy when the windows were open. Kitchen was really quite small but that's fine since we don't really need to spend a lot of time there. And that means lesser cleaning too!
Our study and baby rooms were quite a good size. And the toilets were quite big to me! =D they were also already fitted with sink, toilet bowls and showers so we don't need to purchase these accessories anymore. Last but not least, our master bedroom. This I must say, is really quite tiny. So I guess we're just gonna leave it for resting and sleeping only! We can only fit in our wardrobe, dresser, queen sized bed and side table I believe. Ah well!
Our ID helped us to instruct his air con contact (Nation cool) to discuss where to run the pipes and install our air conditioners. We decided to get the Mitsubishi star max inverter system 3 (4 ticks energy saving) from them for $3,000. Having read online and Facebook reviews, this deal seemed pretty reasonable. The daikin inverter system 3 was $3,650 and had lower cooling capacity compared to the Mitsubishi so we decided to go for the latter.
Mr P also helped us to check the defects of our home which was great because we were kinda lost and clueless. He brought masking tape and a pen to mark all those places that needed rectification. We didn't have major defects so that's good =) G just followed him around to note them down on the defects form. Whilst they did this, I was happily walking around taking photos hehe.
Here are the pics from today!
