Executive Condominiums or EC sit in a market segment between HDB and private condominiums and are seen as condos at lower prices. So, what are the benefits of buying Sol Acres? The first advantage comes to the minds of most upgraders - change in lifestyle with the condo-like facilities and a more exclusive and secure lifestyle. Sol Acres enjoys excellent connectivity both via the LRT and also with the easy access to several major highways with the most immediate being the KJE. The KJE hooks up with the BKE and PIE and from these highways to the SLE and AYE. Being in Choa Chu Kang makes excellent sense for those working in the Jurong and Tuas areas, a fact not lost of those living in the East and travelling across the country each morning and evening in peak and slow traffic.
Families will appreciate the closeness to family friendly destinations such as the farms in the Sungei Tengah area and the zoo and Night Safari in Mandai. Plans are underfoot to add more nature related developments to the mandai area and the eventual relocation of the Jurong Birdpark to Mandai. The Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve is also a short drive away. Parents with school going children have several schools - primary, secondary JC levels to choose from and Sol Acres is conveniently located to the Nanyang Technological University.
There are several shopping centres in Choa Chu Kang with the main one being Lot 1 but for those who enjoy window shopping on weekends, the Jurong Lake District and its whole coterie of shopping centres such as JEM and JCube are just several minutes away via the KJE. These centres are also reachable via the MRT system on the N-S Line. This particular MRT serves those working in Jurong, Woodlands, Ang Mo Kio, Bishan, Orchard and Marina Bay very well, with no transfers to other lines needed. Still, other areas are conveniently accessible at several interchanges such as City Hall and Dhoby Ghaut. For those who enjoy fresh food, wet markets such as the one at the Limbang Shopping Centre are available for the purchase of daily food items.
Buyers who enjoy sports can take advantage of the Choa Chu Kang Sports Hall and the golfing facilities at the Warren Golf and Country Club.
In summary, the reasons to buy Sol Acres are based on the following key benefits:
ECs are built by private developers but are subject to HDB rules and buyers are advised to consult the HDB about eligibilty and restrictions placed on ECs.

Points to note when selecting the right unit for purchase:
The unit type, the area, direction the unit is facing and level at which the unit is located all determine the final price. Other factors that can affect prices include subsidies, negotiations and discounts offered if any. The prudent thing for any buyer to do is to first visit a bank to get an assessment of how much loan they qualify for and use this to eliminate which unit types are beyond their budget. The next step is to consult HDB if they qualify. Finally, decide on unit that meets the most items of their checklist.
