I try for 7 years, lost count on the number of tries for BTOs but in the end I managed to save enough money for an EC

Makes me worried when I read that so many people tried so manyt times over the years and didn't get it.

I'm a first timer too!

Paid $60-70 to HDB before we finally got our unit... and we weren't fussy at all.

IN fact we were prepared to get a low floor during our 5 or 6th try but when it came to our appointment date, the quota for race became zero.

Finally we got it on the 7th ballot!

I think nowadays the system has changed and more people are able to get it at 1st or 2nd ballot.
