The list of prospects are dreamy list who willing to pay RM2000 plus for renting a soho under 566 sq ft or 731 sq ft .

Artist or lawyers?
Lawyers work in groups in simple cheaper office unless those very established types who take up offices in very established buildings n blocks etc
Simple Lawyers are smart and able to calculate cost to know they work with partners in shop houses rents cheaper.
And customers can easily walk up staircase of shops to visit them for legal services .

If you go to Plaza Mont Kiara etc the offices there would remind anyone of what a successful Soho offices is all about.

The two rooms units there are purely offices
1 room for boss and 1 room for meeting room and remaining space for 3 staff etc
Very modern hi tech little offices .
Companies: shipping agents to established ad agencies to
Good Trading companies. Most bosses here are self employed and maintain staff of 3-5 only as limited space.

An executive renting my unit paying RM 2000 plus and staying in a small 731sq ft n work/ stay formula ? And signing my lease of 2 years since he is a company ? I have little confidence on picking up such water fish!

I be happy if a good trading company rent my unit with
Few staff and able to sign a lease contract of 2 years
Minimum.

When I bought soho central, I was not thinking that all three blocks share that one common car park tiers.

Forgot to take into account the total units of soho, courts n the 3rd block using that car park.
I do hope they plan enough visitors car park. At Midfields, ample many visitors car parks are given the highest tiers 7/7A/8/8A and to be share with those who bought low floors and cheaper units.
Sounds fair actually. Their High floors units and expensive units get the very best located and lowest tier car parks.

I was told by Central Mgt that they don't follow this way of planning car parks.
Meaning, even I buy most few expensive floors, I may not get that arrangement.
If I knew that was the case, I should just settle for 2nd floor unit and pay the cheapest and still get by luck a good car park.

Guess, I learn a very expensive lesson.

U bought what size soho
731 sq ft units face pools.

The smaller. Face cemetery below

I bought 731 sq ft. So I am facing pool below.
How to face KLCC ahhh when the other blocks already block us ?

I passed thru Central Development .

The trees scrubs are covering the entrance of Cemetery.

At ground level, not so clearly to see.
If from 3-8th floor, those facing units can see very clear those tomb stones etc

This cemetery is not a big acre burial plot .
But it's not a tiny plot of land either.
If our eyes really keep concentrate on this cemetery, them the cemetery is very clear to know in our minds.

Do rent prospects mind taking an office over looking the cemetery ?

Any Feng shui master give any advice or comments ?
Like to hear from them .

Wow. U must be very close to the Sale Man until he reveal how his boss work n beliefs.

Honestly, I don't care a damn whether the developer believe or not. They are not renting my unit. I am not renting my unit to that company .


I am more concern with the general business people n renting prospects attitude towards such taboo etc

Are you telling that I should only meet my rent guy at certain hour n certain day and certain year and certain night?

If you were to ask the future developer for pudu jail
Whether It's ok to live a unit inside the condo pudu jail,
What do you think he will say ?

And what will yr rent prospect guy say?

Wow. Now. Everyone will buy Hses n condo under or next to highways bridges . Rivers of highway .

Am I to tell my future prospect rent guy or buyer this explanation ? And he will run away from me as I sound a bit weird or half way house type 3/4 type ?

Nothing to do with religion.
Facts, please !

I bought for rent out actually!
Own stay so small space for so high price ?
If pay for around 500k for 731 sq ft. Then I rather buy other units less cost below 410k to 450k
Around Famous Kuchai etc


Rent out as soho allow the rent guy to set up office generally .

Facilities are extra stuff .

Thanks for the pointers. Appreciated.

Still not yet look into any sharp edges of opposite buildings or other YIN things. What are the ways to fend off the YIN Cemetery place?

shakehead meaning? or snake head u mean?

The only best thing I decided for my purchase is choosing 731 sq ft facing pool
As the other two blocks will be built n sky view all 3 blocks is Like triangle .

Not facing cemetery .
Any advice from Feng shui master
What to do or place in unit facing YIN PLACE like cemetery ?

My solution is easy .
If someone is able to offer me additional
RM + 100k to RM150k above my bought price
I will SELL

what's the point to keep unless the building is so well sorted after by renters n sell by hot cakes which I
Am still yet to feel that confident now.

I think they Central should promote in big papers n nice looking ads etc and not put up along stalls n corridors at supermart etc

Image n branding very important.
Eg when mid fields launched, 1st phrase snap up even few days launched and same for the other blocks .
Sold out 100%.

Late buyers will need to buy from sub sale and their sub sale prices is adding another 250k !
I have yet to receive one single interested call to snap grab my unit !!!

You may be number one boy in class
But if you don't know how to sell yrself to the business world. You may not be CEO of any company

How do you promote yrself ?
Mere awards or decorations are not able to ensure that you are Accepted.
Branding positioning and image whether perceived or real can sell you to a higher demand

Sounds scary n Errie ....

So I wonder the block B or courts has balcony facing the cemetery I think.
Definitely not a nice night view!

I wonder the developer did anything to ward off this .
The project won awards. And how come the yin did not block the winning?
Curious .

Leafz developer embark on another more
Expensive condo project nearby the row of
Condo development At bukit jalil
Nearby the two new LRT stations etc

The Leafz I saw the open gate and things are happening n lorries carrying development etc

The leafz when selling got rave reviews brand positioning and sell fast like hot cakes.
They don't sell along corridors stalls and buyers visit office to buy and so garner better
Brand selling.

That RM460k is NOT for Central Soho right?
It's an ad selling Courts central .

Maybe it's moving slow, and this investor decide to drop out and sell to get back his capital .

Did you read between my lines, i say " maybe"

These days, cash is KING. Investors want a fast moving product to make fast cash. If there are no subsales offer, they rather cash out fast.

As i said, if someone offer me ave good offer, i also will cash out.
Rent out or investment is same. If investment is good, we cash out.
if cash is slow, investors suffer. Buy an existing new development, and can rent out immediately, instead of watiting for 3 long years to build.
3 yrs or 36 months at 1600, i already get RM57,600 ahead of waiting for 3 years to build.

All depends on investors.

LEGAL FEES? IF the place can earn that super for subsale, who cares about legal fee of Rm5K or RM10K.
Those who buy Midfields Block A at Rm220K after 2years or 3 years get RM480K subsale.
Amost double the initial Amount?

so, its all about the right investment at the right time, actually.

After my meeting with CENTRAL SOHO senior mgt, I managed to get my car park changed.

Up/down car park change to Side by Side.
My S&P changed to allow this change of car park.

But, I am lucky. As I feel, it's very inconvenience to park our cars up/down car park layout as we got to accommodate each other in that up/down (2) car park layout.

Those who want to rent my unit will not choose my unit if my car park is a big problem for two guys using the 2 given car parks.

Side by side car park, these two guys don't have to accommodate each other for parking first or who should park front or behind.

It's not that the Developer Marketing Dept was listening.
You put words in my mouth to say they listen?

I had called many times telling the Sales Dept and voicing my unhappiness of getting lousy car park allocation despite I paid 2nd highest floor and high price.
They just replied. Unable to help and that its
Decided earlier under the S&P.

I fed up and wrote directly to CEO and ask for a real rational from top management.
It is with this demand that I only get call to meet up to settle some issue with me .

No, it is not that they willing to listen .
I took drastic action to contact the CEO and I want answers .

Despite given side by side car park, it is not the better ones n its Level 3.!!

With so call settle my car park issue,
I definitely will not think of future buys.

I will opt further investments elsewhere.

U think naive or are you seriously that zero understanding how values for condo works,

Like I said before .
Does it take to write to CEO in order for me to get a change of car park ? Then only the Marketing Dept only take my case more seriously.
That level 3 is already the better of the worst choices available for me. I invested close to 500K and not 200k or 300k etc .

If I only knew that buying the few highest floors which means the few most expensive units for Soho Block and that I did not even look down the chart tiers of units n look up at the highest tier of units and I get a up/down parking layout and not side by side parking given . I would not even buy if knew that .
I thought a highest floor unit meaning expensive units will get best best car park.

When the others who buy 9th floor or 8th floor can get side by side, I think I should not make my buying decision that time .
