100% agree....
LRT ( Completed Date : 2014 ) -----> 500m walking distance
M-Square ( Completed Date : 2013/2014 ) -----> 100m walking distance
Hopefully...by 2013/2014...i can sell my Vista Millenium & Vistaria at double price....
Remember Kota Damansara and Sungai Chua used to be a kampung area like this, when development kicks in the surrounding areas will bloom, residents will eventually be 'cleansed'.LRT ( Completed Date : 2014 ) -----> 500m walking distance

If they manage to pull off designing a great shopping mall in M-Square with a solid anchor tenant i.e. Jusco, Parkson, Metrojaya, this would be a selling point for them.
I stayed in Puchong for almost 10 years, I see a trend now - residents flooding in, traffics are bad now, puchong residents no longer want to travel far to PJ, Damansara or elsewhere to shop, people tend to stay within the town during the weekend, hence IOI mall become a primary choice for groceries shopping. IOI mall turning from nothing to something again, the shops got revived, even it is a pretty old and small mall, the new wing was small and not appealing.
Puchong lacks a 1st class shopping mall. The Wharf and M-Square becomes the best bets - if the devs can pull these off and turn them into first class malls, this area will be a hotspot for puchong residents. That is again if they don't F it up.
A plan I draw for X2 thread: http://postimage.org/image/vw59bdok/
If got money and looking for long term investment, this area is pretty ideal. If got "MORE" money, invest in high-end hotspots like Sunway V and Icon City. Or else, to me a mixture of portfolio is good.
