I rather pay another 150k-200k for terraced house.

Really wonder who will buy for it. At that price, still can get freehold double storey at kemuning area.

I kind of agreed that with that asking price of RM 690K is on the high side but during the same time when KU Suite was launched (almost 2 years ago), Alam Impian SA also launched their Sephira double storey landed property and their asking price already at 676K for a 24x80. I booked a unit back then but no choice have to surrender it as when I factor in all the hidden cost such as MOT, SPA and etc., which is quite a sum for a 676K property. A check on iProperty is asking for 855K on Sephira now sub-sale.

I still keep the breakdown of the repayment value and hidden cost till today haha... it was a nightmare for me that time every night keep thinking if I have over commit myself and finally I retracted the booking...



Understand and concur that adding another 100K gets the best of a double storey house but at times for first time buyer, adding another 100K to a house loan mean more monthly repayment and that is something that breaks the monthly cash flow. With the global recession of even Global Corporate here and there, one have to really think carefully when committing to it.

With the price of RM 690K you may not be able to get a new double storey property (pardon me if wrong as I totally not watching the property news lately) in Kota Kemuning, Kemuning Utama or Kemuning Greenview or etc. with Kemuning prefix or suffix (developer like it a lot with this Kemuning words at these area)... but a second hand property is possible at RM 690K but also remember that renovation would be a cost to incurred more when you buy a second hand house. Renovation cost are mainly Cash term and no monthly repayment

Of course sub-sales of new property has been going on for years and this has provided opportunity for investors to 'flip' and earned quite a sum margin, which the side effect is that first time house owner will have to suffer. As I always discuss with my frens/colleagues that perhaps those born in the 90's may not be able to own a house of their own with the current upward trending of house price, unless they get help from their parents (70's or 80's born parents are working their arse off for this while having to finish their current house loan). And to add in into the misery, Bank Negara revising the BLR rate means more repayment on loan applied and also with GST coming in next year, I foresee that house price will spike again from developer capitalizing on it be it they really got impacted on GST or not.

Of course the above are just my thoughts ya, dun get angry or offended just wanna share some viewpoints hehe... anyway this is a discussion forum

stay chill and stay rilex... chillex it's a long weekend

ME IN SAME SITUATIOON, have to let go a 2x storey, after factoring all those hidden cost and living cost, even though MV +RM200K, only gross in paper

Totally understand that... coupled with parents getting aged and worried if ever I need cash flow for something unexpected...

hmmmm...maybe you should go for that landed house in early, sell it upon completion; then you make 200k. buy those apartment with 200k down.

Actually, there is a new 2-storey terraced house development for sale in Bukit Rimau sometimes in April 2014 for about sub 500k. see here

Given the financial circumstances at that time, that was the only choice lol... And KU Suite doesn't have any Legal SPA fees or progressive interest from bank, so by the time the property completed it would mean that the 3 year Bank Loan tied down also end... When that time comes, see if to sell it or keep it (most likely keeping it)...

Trust me I would want to buy a landed house as early as I can if I can afford the down payment and monthly repayment without much sweat hahaha... Who doesn't want to own a landed property?

P/S: Btw, those RM 200K are on paper only haha.. not sure if they can actually sell it out... I recall during my time of Alam Impian purchase I have to queue over night there at their sales office in order to wait them to open the next morning

haha now becoz of them, house price is increasing year by year lol

they are also first time house buyers like you

ku suite is fully furnish right?
earlier alot of comparison between landed property and KU suite.
anyone know the current landed property price compare to KU suite?

I won't say it is fully furnished but partly furnished and below are the list of item they have;

Air conditioner
Shower screen
Shower heater
Refrigerator
Cooking hob
Cooking hood
Washing machine and dryer
Kitchen cabinet
Wardrobe

So basically you buy a couch, gigantic LED TV with ASTRO, dinning table, UniFi and Bed... you can move in
