400K??..come on, saw some owners are asking 500-550k also..hehehehehe.

lets do a small calculation.

If you buy for 450k, you need another 30k for SNP, stamp and lawyer fees and another 20k for simple renovation which makes the total value 500k.
For 500K mortgage, monthly installment is RM 2100/-. then you have to add up another RM 400 p/m for agent fees and maintenance.
So quit rent, fire insurance and assessment fees needs to bear separately. it is another RM 100 p/m.

So total you need to cover RM 2500/- pm

Now the question is ..can you rent TS for RM 2500 range?? ( bear in mind you are expecting this rent price by only doing basic renovation of 20k, so will a tenant pay RM 2500/-  pm for a such unit ?) Even good properties of YTL (Saffron ) do not fetch RM 2500/- pm

Okay, If you rent TS for RM 1500...every month you have to pump RM 1000/- to cover the mortgage.... and where is the profit??
Ok, waiting 1year - 2 years ?? 3 years?? property is getting older and price appreciation will be on halt one day. by then tenants will move to new condominiums in town and rent start falling.
For 3 years you have to pump 36k just to cover the difference in rental to pay off the mortgage.

So be careful, subsale owner has to rent for atleast RM 2500/-  to breathe peacefully. ... in my opinion there are plenty of choices around for RM 2500 range.

Going further, after 3 years you need to sell atleast 600k for breakeven. if you sell for 700k, you have a profit of 100k after 3 years. hmm.. will it be 700per sqft in this area by then?
Reminding here, TS has more than 600 units, so lot of competition for you to sell a unit for 700k range in another 3 years. There is competition from outside and also from inside TS owners.

And........ after all doing all these doings for 3 years to earn just 100k? managing tenants for 3 years is a nightmare and earning 100k after 3 years cannot justify the efforts you put in.

So think twice before buying from sub-sales, or presurize the initial owners to sell for lower price. tell them they  brought the property for 250-300k range and cannot ask 450k-500K withing 2 yrs just becos there is a LRT next to it.

TQ bro, what an excellent analysis. Thinking of grabbing one subsale unit at 460k, I really have to think 10 times .

Spot on mate.......genuinely think TS will be another coincident waiting to happen........and also if we r gonna have downturns......It's impact to TS should not be too hard VS other 'prettier' offerings..... wink.gif

Boss another hint for you to consider.......do checkout all new or recently completed high-rise that has both LRT n monorail connectivity......u'll be pleasantly surprised with the findings.......from both rental n selling price psf...... wink.gif


Pai, I got to agree with you, just to share with you that my unit in suria jelatek just rented out last week for 3k/month. I couldnt ask for more for the low entry price and it is near jelatek lrt and 100m to GE mall.

I`m really interested in TS , just went there just now to view a unit in block B at 37th floor. this block only has 2 lifts and I need to wait more than 10minutes for the lift. cant imagine how long do we have to wait when most of the tenants already moving in.

chief if youplan to masuk TS............blok B today is not the best buy.........premium a bit diff to justify with only 2 lifts........and more importantly Mah Sing's new project.................

and boss can you share what the latest transacted price psf for the LH Suria Jelatek............. notworthy.gif



high floor block b asking for >550k. I think its a bit too much for a 38 storey building with 2 lifts. prefer block A as it comes with 4 lifts each. looking for mid and lower floor as I cant stomach high floors come with generally low handrail(height phobia). my budget is around 450-460k otherwise I will give a miss.

My suria jelatek , I was called by a buyer(not agent) who agreed with my price of 525k which I eventually did not proceed with the sale when I managed to find tenant for 3k. was told that about 60-80 units are in the process of changing name.for high floor the average asking price is 550k despite negative comments by certain quarters but the location tells u everything.

I think you are getting personal. your personal attack towards PAI has already misalign from the real purpose of this thread which is for discussion. I am no fans of Pai(I dont even know him) but I got to give him some credit , having 23 prop under his belt at a tender age. What do you have so far?
I dont own any unit in TS but as Minolta, I`m looking for one and my offer for 450k got no response so far.

and your writing in red does not impress me at all.

PAI,

if you were to buy TS by now, what is your last entry price?what is your preferred block and floor/facing? I would eye for block A as I just cant accept 38 storey Block B with 2 lifts. TQ
