Geylang芽笼解密：蜕变中的乌鸦 原创 By MySgProp, 07/02/2015 新闻参考：Eye on Geylang: Defying reputation. (SG) 芽笼，芽笼。。。它很大。。。我之前也发表过好几个关于它的巨大潜能，政府URA Master Plan要把D14区重新打造成商业中心以舒缓无法再扩大的Shenton Way，主要就是它非常近市区也近机场。这里价格相比其它同距离的City Fringe地点低了很多。。。就因为 — 新加坡红灯区也在芽笼。 有的人甚至直接把整个D14区都和红灯区挂钩起来。 D14除了Geylang还包含了Eunos，和Paya Lebar。。。。更大啊！ ^_^ 大约一年前我也有聊过怎么选芽笼的楼盘和银行贷款问题，不知道大家还记得否？ 这则文章也有提到让大家温故知新：1. 红灯区在Geylang Lorong的“双数”，以Lorong 16为中心。准确一点说，Lorong 4到22的双数街道就是红灯区。很少银行要批贷款，文中说只有两家银行愿意批。2. 当然4到22对面的单数巷子也会被影响了一些，所以这里的贷款也会比较难，但比双数巷子机会高很多。3. 芽笼1到3巷就其实就不担心了，因为那里基本上属于Kallang的地盘了。4. 过了24巷已经不属于红灯区，但是银行贷款还是会Case by Case，就看你多靠近红灯区，离得越远越好。。。单数更好。5. 过了40巷后就不必担心了，因为那里基本上属于Paya Lebar的地盘了。 4年前，很多典型的新加坡人其实很久都没有到过新山（JB）。年轻一代的（35岁以下），近5到10年都没有到过新山的人很普遍。对新山的认识，就是看报纸和听同事朋友说。大家听到新山就敬而远之，因为“新山”和“治安乱”离不开关系。所以当时介绍新山房地产真的是很费劲的一件事情。新山，新山。。。它其实也很大！！ 直到新加坡政府和马来西亚政府携手在新山伊斯干达推行了几个大型的项目，并开始鼓励国人投资房地产和中小型企业迁往伊斯干达，这才让大家开始愿意去了解新山和伊斯干达经济特区的概念？慢慢的，2012年新山房地产出现了空前的飞快增长。 我知道在看我这文章的朋友，很多都对芽笼不熟，尤其是女生。。。腼腆一点的女生听到这个芽笼这个名字还会脸红的。 那为什么我那么熟？哈哈，除了因为我的工作关系需要对各地方进行研究，而且我自己也住在D14啊！ 2015年1月14日，URA（城市重建发展局）提出把芽笼红灯区（4-22双数芽笼巷）重新规划土地用途。方案通过后将被纳入现有的URA Masterplan，这也意味着从今以后红灯区不会再有住宅项目。这里的租金一直以来都是全岛租金率最高的地区之一，这主要是因为价格相比其它近市区的地点要便宜很多。这样一来，这里的房子供应也会慢慢的减少，相信几年后租金会更进一步上升。 但我想芽笼这样价格偏低的情况不会持续太久！随着政府公布的未来发展蓝图中点出义顺（Yishun），裕廊（Jurong），加冷（Kallang），芽笼（Geylang），和（Paya Lebar）为重点发展。这让越来越多人开始去对芽笼有了好奇心，开始去了解它。。。上图中圈出的两个近期楼盘是国浩地产的盛世名园(SiMS Urban Oasis)和TRE Residences，这两个楼盘都是99年产权，距离阿裕尼地铁站（Aljunied MRT）差不多300～400米左右，发售价格都在S$1500 psf左右。 未来发展方面，除了芽笼自身的$2.2 Billions转型计划，还有左右两边Kallang和Paya Lebar这两个政府重点发展的黄金地段。未来创造的无数就业机会将更进一步带动这里的房产需求。 此外，James Cook大学也于去年确定将在Sims Drive建设另一间更大的学府。预计2015年尾开始收纳新生，第一批新生人数目标为3500人，并设下目标2018年学生人数将超过7000人。这里很快可以看到很大的改变。 7000人的大学有多大？我记得以前我小学的时候差不多1000个学生，属于A型小学，那么7个我的小学的规模挺大呢！2000年，在马来西亚国立大学（UKM）求学的时候，我记得当时的总人数约2万个学生，也就是说大约是UKM近30%的规模。。。哇，那也好大啊！
