Should I buy my HDB flat now?

Hi MrEngineer, the future Downtown 3 Line is not that near Bedok Reservoir? As I understand it, and if I remember correctly, the future station is at Bedok Reservoir Rd area, which is a pretty long stretch of rd with mostly built-up HDBs. So unless the Bedok DBSS is actually there and depending on your definition of "walking distance", the site may not be THAT near an MRT. I mean, if I was staying at the Tampines DBSS and i'd just finished a midnight show at TM. I'd be walking home and I would call that "walking distance". But if it was raining cats-and-dogs, it'd be an entirely different story altogether. So best bet is, you'd prob get a site at least a few bus- stops away from the station which, in good weather, would be walkable but nowhere near a Parc Oasis - Chinese Garden MRT proximity.
