In this episode of Kaki Stories, join Shawn Thia, Jun Long, and Wen Fang as they share their personal experiences in house-hunting and the preparations they’ve made for it!

Catch Wen Fang as she talks about securing a BTO on her first try and how much effort her partner put in to convince her to go for a 4-room flat.
