If Fixtures + Fitting put up for sale at S$13 million and Fittings alone sold for S$27k, then it would be difficult to sell the Fixtures at S$12,973,000
Your posts are always very informative. Thanks.
I have a comment though: both fixtures and fittings of Formosa are old and need a complete renewal, even after the recent remodeling.
If I want to start a new hotel, I would try to buy the naked building for a piece of bread, then invest in renewing most fittings. Only at that point, we can invest in fixtures and launch brand new Formosa 2 with credible chances to be one one of the best places to stay in Batam.
Because of COVID, maybe now the investment to buy the building can be small. It could be a long-term investment, for better times to come.
This is mainly my hope. What else could they do with the building? A mall??
