For all to know, KL-Kepong is one of the top and reliable property developers in town. They really built value-for-money housing projects.

I can confirm it because I have been staying at Desa Coalfields for 6 years now.

One of the unique features about this developer is that they adopt build-and-then sell concept. In other words, you can see some structures ready (30%) before public launching of the housing units. This developer is financially strong/solid and there is no problem of cutting corners faced on their projects.

As for location wise, Bandar Seri Coalfields would be too far for those who work in KL City. If you work around Klang, Sg Buloh, Shah Alam, Ijok then it could be good place to look for.

Anyhow, our present government is actively promoting Greater KL development plan and Sg. Buloh region is part of it.

I only speak the truth; shame the devil.

For you to know, Sg Buloh covers a huge vicinity but I don't think it is 20km distance from the toll.

I attached with Google map for you to know the exact distance from KL city centre - it is like travelling from KLCC to almost Klang town. So you could guess how far from KL to Klang approximately?

For investment purposes? It depends how you see it i.e. short run, mid run or long run. This place is definitely not for short run gain. For you know, there is not much empty land left around KL region for landed housing projects now, so the only direction for new development is towards KL outskirt regions. So, if you wait longer more years, your investment choice area would only be much more outskirt from KL city centre and at much more higher purchasing price!!

On security wise, to be frank, crime happened everywhere and much more frequent on Chinese populated housing area.

This BSC is not inside kampong area but presently is considered rather "ulu". However, with the active development plan and project around Sg. Buloh in no time, the surrounding area would be fully developed. So, you can keep your fingers crossed.

Nope stay_cool, I am not pro BSC. To me, the developer background status is the most crucial factor for consideration, beside looking at the pricing and location.

So, it is advisable to first look at who the developer was for any newly launched projects before considering other factors.

If you get a lousy developer to built your house, then you'll know how much the subsequent hidden cost and headache would be, after spending all the monies and time into it. It would be a severe pain in the arse. So time alone may not be so crucial after all when asessing ROI.

For every investment, there is risk involved. Nobody can foresee anything accurately, otherwise there would be no poor man on the street. But remember, good feng shui never stays in the same place forever. It always rotates and if it did turn to your side, you would see an instant gold mine upfront.

My only advice is to assess the government announcement and projects of developing so and so regions, etc. Also, you can take a look at the Google map and make assessment yourself where else has big space of empty land around Klang valley and the direction of new development and growth would be towards it and you'll reap less regrets.

So, stay an open mind and have good luck in your bets.

Aiya, now every housing also got own "privatised" G&G wat. Build your own palang; block your own lorong belakang, etc.

True to what you said. So if you work in KL, it is better to buy house in KL only. If you work in Klang, then buy a house in Klang. So forever, we would not be facing with traffic jam jam problems on peak hours la.

As again, for those "ulu" areas, there is potential for more growth as compared with "established" area. So, if you have tons of money, go and invest in those millions of dollars one. But the chances of more up in price in the future is slim.

If now you buy "ulu" area at somehow low price, if suddenly tomorrow they want to build big university, proton city, lrt station, highway, hypermarket next to your homeland then "kaya" la u. Chances of big jump in price is high. But if they want to build kilang nuklear or kilang sampah, then "kaput" la your $$$.

So, when we talk about investment, we talk about making BIG money at low cost. But in reality, ppl are kiasu n kiasi type. And since we are mostly not belong to the son of Lee Kah Sing, long or short ROI, tu depend on your lucky star la. But still, u can open your eyes and ears big big to listen and keh poh bit on news bout big corporate plans, goment development plans, etc.

Added on April 23, 2011, 11:12 pmI agree it is the best choice judging from the house size 22x75 and 24x75 at 300k ++. somemore, developer KL kepong is good and caring one. they really listen to complaint and take fast corrective action. some bigger n so-called reputable developers tout they r big bro n never kowtow to our small fry complaints. this is wat i called value for money la...workmanship n service bagus.

when ppl sell aways houses it doesn't mean that place no good. it is just becoz the house price already increase and could make $$$ already. this is wat we called investment type of housing. u can notice most on sale likely to be corner house bcoz could sell higher pricing.

yes agreed, presently not much amenities around or big city activities. that is why the housing price there r cheap but house quality/workamanship r good. so this kind of situation is best n conducive for investment. buy low cost keep n sell off when up price later. just like share market.

now, with new school already up, somemore 2 new highways ready (Latar n Guthrie), more new townships coming up - bsc, SA2, aman putri, u think the prop prices won't up soon? see how much developers sell for new launching?

just like last time puncak alam is considered ghost town because nothing there but now developers r launching more n more townships in that area. do you know why? becoz where else got big empty space around kV in 5 to 10 years time?

i remember last time when BSDsara was launched around 1991, nobody seemed interested coz comments said banyak far la, ulu, jungle everywhere, road small n bumpy, tak da connection, etc. Then u see wat happened now? developer price for my house double storey link onli rm155k n ppl alreadi complaint too high for such jungle location. now price already up to 500k to 600k. how many % up d u think?

so, when we made investment, we must see all the important n realistic factors not hearsay, bla bla, etc. reality is right infront. things would change n activities would come along, price would go up along as well.

in short when more highways ready --> more new townships --> more ppl stay --> more schools --> more offices --> more shopping mall --> more petrol station -->more traffic --> more new n upgraded roads -->more jam -->more messy --> more complaint pulak for hot area.

Check out on KL Kepong web site for details.

May I know what has the prison got to do with your problem?

Distance is approx. 26km.

Sorry my friend. If you could find any bank that could give fd return of more than 220% within 20 years, please recommend it here.

Like that ah, then I would become one of the money speculators and I think it is against the law in this Bolehland, right? Or, at least in the eyes of our Dr. M.

I dun want to end up in sg buloh jail la. I still prefer to stay put at its neighbour town (DC).
