My friend bought the 半山壹號 back in 2008 (or sth) against my advice. I told her it's much over the market price and should consider anything else but that property. finally sold it break even last year and was very happy to 脫苦海
Another friend bought the same 半山壹號 in 2010 second hand and made 5 mil in just 2 years.
Guess who did the research? Both got the timing right. But one 貪方便 and the other 做功課
