not really, it depend also, at time traffic is slow but the speed is something like 60-80 km/h compare to USJ Jalan Kewajipan where u will be totally stands still for 10-15 mintutes waiting for the traffic lights to turn green. Most import is the security level nowadays, USJ is a big no no if u ask me. The major hot area targeted by robbers n thiefs are USJ 1,2,3,4,6,9, certain area of 11,12,13,most SS area that are not guarded n gated. Even those uncle that used to stay there for more than 15 years get "mug" n robbed when they go for morning walk or exercise. Taman Desa & OKR area are equally bad don really understand the reason behind. U should consider this factor carefully. Every where is traffic jam nowadays u can't escape we have too many cars on the road becos of lousy public transport system.

Just buy a house at Cyberjaya lah.
or Buy a place you really like & never turn back.

Mixture of new n old... The new ones are just completed and you can buy them from subsales.. average RM500k

Whoa that bad huh? My colleague's stayin in USJ20. Love the houses there. Peaceful and quiet.

blasto : cyberjaya is a dead city AHAHA =P no way im gonna stay there.

eugene : Googled and found some. Might be going to view the units tomorrow =)

As for USJ the best is G&G double storey house is USJ 16, price wise you must prepare to pay premium but still the traffic jam there is a big headache during rush hours.

Why not PJ? RM450k can get some decent places in matured townships like SS2 and DJ. Just go to iproperty.com and search 'petaling jaya'.

Putrajaya/Cyberjaya slow to none nowdays since it change hands.

450k for condo in petaling jaya maybe yes. impossible for landed.

babymiki : hunting is thrilling, enjoy & be happy.

HAHA guys check this out

http://www.iproperty.com.my/propertylistin...ce_Link_ForSale

decent price for that measurement?

The posted date is in Sept, might has been sold already.

how about this 1 miki http://www.iproperty.com.my/propertylistin...ce_Link_ForSale

stated negotiable.

wrong move! u better go and check out the neigbourhood u might not like what you see. I say you should give this one a miss. U must bear in mind this place is not guarded n gated hence the security level is like usj. I used to own a house near by and my relative used to stay there until some no good scumbag break-in thru the front door n ransack the whole house, its not even 7pm yet that time. They sold the house and shift to safer n better place. A lot of cases goes unreported there becos a lot of people felt that its pointless and helpless. Just to share some info with u.

I went to view the corner lot in bk2 today. From the photo it was okay but once I enter the house I've no mood to continue. Owner did not maintain the house and the agent asked "do you plan to renovate?" I was stunned for a while and was thinking to myself that seems like the whole house needs to be renovated. Urgh. Guess I'll just opt this area out. Owner increased the price too. 498K. Not worth it.

Btw, do you guys have any tips for newbies on how to bargain price with agents? I have zero clue on how to do this if I'm really keen to buy a house.

Ya, its quite a old neighbourhood and I don't like it also. They are pretty run down and the other side of the garden, BK2 also, you will find all kind of people that you don't like,some of them even use the house for business purpose like renovation work material they keep their goods in the house and a lot of the stuff they just leave them in the car park. I don really like the enviroment there. I think your seller purposely hike up the price becos of this coming lrt project thing otherwise that house won't command this price i think.

Actually, u can opt for BK5 house,some of the house condition is quite good. Or you can look for those Guarded & Gated house in Mutiara Indah Puchong(leasehold) I think price now is around RM400k.

Or get a house in "wong" area like Bandar Puteri Puchong (freehold) for RM450k The Peak, its right on top of the hill and your neighbour will be mostly bangalow and double storey house oni, i think this one you stil can get a few house from IOI developer for earlier phase. I can still see some seller posting to sell their house in this taman, some selling for RM500k in good condition. You should take a short trip up there,the enviroment is really good,cool wind and come with 3 park i think in walking distamce to each other. I say this becos I bought one unit there earlier this year

Lakefield has the lease hold status of 75 years, not 99 years. According to my friend that bought a unit there, till now they only got the temporary CF. There is a land the inner area reserved for Sekolah Agama. Initially I was interested in Lakefields too but after my friend highlighted those to me, I give up.

where is location of the land and size?

Lakefields is in Sg.Besi. Nearby Besray Sg.Besi toll. It is developed by IJM, 3 storey link house.

www.lakefields.com.my/

Puchong got Lake Edge but average is RM520k plus,leasehold status,developer is YTL.

Searching form the net is good, but i still prefer the classic way.
Go to the area you like, survey look out for (for sale/rent signs)
Try to talk to the people there.
Espicially those auntie's & young man around that area.
They might give you tips abt selling price range & who's selling around that area.

Gated community, even better, talk to the guard he know who's & where is selling at the
area. Park car & travel by foot. Talk to their neighbours for those unoccupied lots.

ya thats one of the good old skol ways to do audit.

Lakefields is by YTL, not IJM.

Added on November 9, 2009, 11:47 amI think the DSL in Lake Edge is already transacted at above RM 550K.

Added on November 9, 2009, 11:49 amCheck with YTL. I heard they are going to renew the lease to 99 years, like what they did to Lake Edge Puchong.
