I bought 2 prime properties in KL total worth 1.05mil within the past 3 years and total value now at 1.65mil. Didnt have to refinance. Now looking for 3rd property but will get car first. But 3rd property can only max loan 70% so probably need to withdraw EPF. cry.gif

any idea if the property is shared 1, means have 2 names to bear the loan, does the 3rd property which im going to buy can only be loaned at 70% of the property price?

Anybody's name on the loan document is counted as 1 property regardless if shared or not. If u and your wife's name on the 1st property then considered both of you have 1 property in your name.

Thats why i always advice ppl, put property title in 2 names (for easy transaction in case of death / disability) but loan put in 1 name.

Guys, i just went for my 7th test drive. This time in a totally new car (silver). Pushed the car for about 15 mins and the burnt smell was there. Quite strong. This is really worrying me. Seems like a common issue.

And for those who dont know the history of this issue, let me say that this is not from the tyres or the brakes as i didnt slam the brakes. Nothing to do with aircon vents also and its not exhaust fumes. Its a burning smell. And if ure gonna say, this problem is only initial, please be reminded that some owners in US are still having this problem after about 10,000km mileage.

Nope. Main issue is selling my Vios for the right price. Anyway, my earlier target was the WWR number plate which im sure to miss now. So next target is WXA which should arrive sometime in end July. So still got 4 months to go.

initially I have this problem also, now my mileage 1500km hardly smell that anymore, I suspect the burnt smell is from the new anti-rust coating on the exhaust system.

its Maybank and Public Bank. Guarantor for personal loan. But that person died a year ago. Didnt know he didnt paid the installment. Need to clear it off, by letting go two other cars I supposed. Teana sure cannot let go since not even 1 year yet, and Naza Ria afraid need to topup summore..  cry.gif

Can you obtain the death cert for the specific person? You can appeal based on that.


QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Mar 30 2012, 01:56 AM)
If the service centre as bad as its salesmen, then i strongly recommend you avoid this Red Cube. Really pathetic service which normally means the branch manager is ineffective.


Added on March 30, 2012, 7:42 am

RM5K is the benchmark for good salary? Common la! That salary is barely enough to survive in KL if you have a family and a housing/car loan to pay. Thats why im quite happy with the new Bank Negara ruling regarding car loans. Will take some of those wannabies off the streets.  biggrin.gif
*
Agreed~! Dont go to Red Cube. Better go those 3s center. More friendly and customer oriented.


QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Mar 30 2012, 10:50 AM)
Guys,
Is there any difference buying the Optima from a branch as compared to a Kia dealer? Any risks with dealers?
*
Depends on the dealer, there is might be some risk if the dealer is newly established. Afraid that its might close down.

IMO, go to those established 3S Kia showroom. Usually more reliable as they need to fulfill strict criteria before awarded 3S center.


QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Mar 30 2012, 11:24 AM)
In my case i gotta choose the branch with the best trade in value for my Vios. We're talking about differences in thousands so its huge.

I thought u got poisoned by the new Audi A4 smile.gif


QUOTE(K5WHITE @ Mar 30 2012, 11:57 AM)
they charge u for 5ltr oil or 4ltr?

Can I bring my own oil for services? Will it void the warranty? Lack of confident on Petronas product, been using Shell for years. smile.gif

HORREY~!

Just bought Yuma Coil Mat (inclusive bonnet) from Sh@rty 5 today. Got the special grey color used in C class Mercedes. A bit pricey but the quality is tip top and it is really custom made for Optima. Got 2 years warranty also.

Bought also some items from Shark Racing. Anyone can recommend who can help me install those custom emblem? Or I can pull it out just like that.
