Was thinking of slacking in July but surprisingly it has bought me many monetary rewards..
I didn't even go for the 1st viewing but the buyer bought the unit on 2nd viewing with me! (PS: It was my 1st time entering the unit and i was wondering where the study was which the seller had initially told me. Anyway, there's no study! I found out there haha.. and my seller made a mistake). 1 million for this 20 yr old 99 yrs leasehold property.
And my Caribbean is finally sold! Previously price was too steep.. 100k reduction and sold @ 1.5mil! I will miss this unit.. i had rented it out too previously. If i had the money, i would have gotten it. SEA view u know? *heart aches* I LOVE Caribbean @ Keppel Bay :~(
And a room rental for my friend.. earning $700+!
Five figure salary! Enough to pay for my accident repairs! Ya, damn that accident which took place 2 yrs ago. I lost the case.. had to fork out 4.7k! Hard earned money gone to waste..

Life skills my Real Estate career taught me
Previously I had an extraordinary job with the civil service. I had learned about giving solutions and developing my listening skills when all my life, it was usually about me, myself and I. However, the morbid thing i've learnt were the various ways of dying.
Ways of dying. Literally.
Jumping off a building. Drowning. Death from home accidents. Road Traffic Accidents. Decomposed bodies. I never knew death smells of Salted Fish. U never knew, right?!?
Glad to have moved on to greener pastures: meeting foreign dignataries that had previously seemed out of reach - they are actually very down-to-earth people.
My new career with the Real Estate brought me to 'greater heights' recently. Fun it always it, and refreshing to meet new faces all the time and being able to make friends and interact with people from all over the world. Particularly the Rich & Famous. Or the start-from-scratch who became successful.
Recently, my tolerance level reached a new high. I learnt how to change a bulb. I repaired a stove. Had to remove the oven just to change a battery for the stove. I learnt about hardware shops selling door knobs. I drove all the way to AMK to buy door knobs to replace the broken door handles of the wardrobe. In the past, i would have frowned at all those requests but now I am simply amused.
Valerie is now officially a handy-man!
