Requirement must be a landed property.

Which type of homes should I go for? New projects or 2nd hand homes? Budget - wise, around RM 500k or so. Possible to get a double storey terrace?

preferable around seksyen 17 of Petaling Jaya, because i think that area most probably easier for renting out to students right?

i thinlk ss2 old house still can right.

SS2 old house is ? double storey? single storey? corner lot?

double storey about RM 400k plus in ss2

Thanks for the info..
Do you have any good site for property adv? newbie here, sorry...

How about seksyen 17 of PJ? anyone has info on this?

Thank you.

Anyone that has more information to share around this area of PJ?

ss2 double storey around rm420k-450k.can rent to students as well

those are not corner lot right?
how about corner lot? anyone know the price range please?

it is about RM 890k

so much different..

have to content with middle lot then..

Do you know by chance any single storey corner lot nearby this area?

Don't take chance, take action instead

go to iproperty.com.my. search using appropriate terms. Im sure you can get roughtly the price of the properties you want in various types and sizes.

Be warned that this area is kinda "old" therefore u nit to include renovation cost

Section 14 has more single storey lots....

those area ... should be under leasehold ? these days the place there seems to be much more secure
all the while i am seeing road block and police car around ...
good thing

Hmm...
Yup..those houses are quite old...

Btw, can sifu here share some knowledge on basic renovation fee?

yupe.. interested in listening on the reno tips too
if inside the house, alot of those sharp angle... we need to cover it up right ?

SS22 facing Damansara Uptown, got a DS intermediate asking RM500k.

But directly in front is the highway, so is kinda noisy.

Plus it's at least 20+ yr old, quite run down after years of renting to student. A sum of RM50-100k is required to refurbish & restore the house.

section 14 and 17 are mostly leasehold

there are some freehold in ss2

Icic..
50k - 100k just to basic refurbish & restore...
quite pricey..

Just wondering how is the rent rate as SS2, it is a distance from those college and uni compared to seksyen 17..

about RM 1,300 to RM 1,600 for double storey

Hmm...i think seksyen 17 has better rent rate right? At Seksyen 17, a double storey will have > Rm 1,600?
3 years ago, i rented one condo there, and it is rm 1,700..

The row of DS houses facing LDP is not worth for RM500k especially those houses near to Tropiciana City Mall because the LDP is expanding by using the road in front of those houses to accomodate car from Tropiciana City Mall, I guess.

Don't buy property from ss2/106 because there will be another condo (heard is Casa 3) coming soon and the access door will be facing ss2/106. Many cars will park along the road and the traffic will turn busy next time.

thanks for sharing the information...
i am still looking around Terrace ard this area, if anyone has properties ard this area that is looking for sale, can always pm me.

SS2 houses i think are all freehold. the houses may be old but there are some pretty well maintained and renovated. prices will depend on location and condition, an ok area with no renov will be rm400k+ upwards. that is for the smallest DSL, for larger units i think is >500k easily. i know there was a very basic no renov 26x85 sold for >600k. corner i think can easily go >800k

like post above, prepare for 50-100k renovation

@kitman,
thanks for the reply..
seems it is a bit pricey here..wonder it will have any more room to appreciate in future or not.?

another question, if loan 500k, monthly repayment will be around 2.5k - 3k right?(based on average loan package)

DSL in SS2 is RM600k upwards.
