If you are only trying to get a general idea, then the exact figure doesn't matter la. Info you glean from MLS will be accurate enough, and is so easily accessible.

Very true. Lots of factors like numbers of elevator, size of common garden/patio/area, pool, sauna room, different strata companies... etc etc.

I just want to know what's the average, and what do ppl willing to pay for what amenities.

Actually, there is really no standard. Similar house size with similar amenities in different areas could vary a lot, even within the same city but just different complex nearby vary too.

Of course people prefer a relatively low strata fee, or as low as possible. But it depends. If they're non-brand-new or not-too-new houses, there would be some history to follow and thus people can foresee the possible rate in the near future. But for brand new homes, some of them might start at a pretty low rate but they can have incredible raise later in order to cover the needed expense cuz they wrongly started too low at the beginning. So in other words, even there is no market "standard" but people may pick something in the middle as a good reference.

The questions is, if you found your dream perfect home but just the strata fee is higher than you expected, would you still go ahead or to look for another home (a not too perfect home but lower strata fee)?

Well, I live in Downtown. My building is about 1 yr old, 900 sf and i am paying 390 a month.
We don't have swim pool, but we do have a small gym and there are 24hrs concierge on duty. However, is close to 400 a month, i found it a little bit too much!! Thinking to move to Richmond next year =)
