Local celebrity Mark Lee splashes out $2.2m on Thomson apartment

SINGAPORE - Local comedian Mark Lee has splashed the cash, forking out $2.2 million for a five-room apartment that he believes is great value for money.

Speaking to Lianhe Wanbao on the set of his new production helmed by Taiwanese comedian-compere Kang Kang, he let on why he felt he got bang for his buck.

The apartment, he explained, measures 2,680 square feet (248 square metres), has five rooms and was freehold, which translates to a valuable acquisition considering the current market conditions.

These all translated to space, comfort and convenience since it could house his family of five, his mother and sister together at one location.

However, he's not giving up his current home in Ang Mo Kio despite the purchase of this property because it was the 'birthplace' of his three kids and that he will most probably rent it out.
