Malaysia can never play rental yield loh, given the high loan interest rate.

Singapore is much better yield > 4% interest 1% only.

Malaysia is more for capital appreciation.

Hahaha. i did a bit of research actually and found out that CBJ can be ong in a few years time. Hence, i bought a property there

got free talk by Ho Chin Soon at Symphony Hills On sep 8 or 9. 10-5pm.

Various developers in Cyberjaya come together in property showcase

http://thestar.com.my/metro/story.asp?file...91&sec=metrobiz

SEVEN major property developers in Cyberjaya will be joining forces for the Cyberjaya Premier Property Showcase that will be held on Sept 22 and 23 at Cyberview Resort and Spa, Cyberjaya.

The seven that will be collaborating for the showcase are Setia Haruman Sdn Bhd, Cyberview Sdn Bhd, Glomac, MCT Consortium, Mah Sing, UEM Land and Emkay Group.

Cyberview Sdn Bhd is the landowner and Cybercity manager for Cyberjaya, while Setia Haruman is the master developer of the city. Both companies are the main stakeholders of Cyberjaya.

Setia Haruman chief operating officer Lao Chok Keang said the event will showcase the diverse range of developments in Cyberjaya to potential residents and investors.

“There will be properties such as high-end residential units, apartments, commercial projects and office suites.

“Cyberjaya started off with office developments some 15 years ago. There has since been a residential boom, and with that came a demand for commercial properties,” he said.

Cyberview managing director Hafidz Hashim said the diverse mix of properties, many of which are integrated development, are good testimonies that live up to Cyberjaya’s tagline as a place to “live, study, work and play”.

“One strong point in Cyberjaya is that all the properties have freehold status,” he said.

“Some of the amenities available in this township are the community clubhouse, Cyberjaya Lake, bus terminal, park and ride facilities, and more than 160 F&B outlets.

“There is also a dedicated transport service to shuttle people to and from this township. Because many multinational corporations set up their global centres here, the service runs on a 24-hour schedule with close to 50 buses transporting people from as far as Klang, Seremban and Kepong to Cyberjaya.”

Hafidz attributed the township’s low crime rate to its high safety and security features, such as a 24-hour monitoring via a CCTV system that is linked to the Cyberjaya Police Station.

“Almost all strategic areas are covered by CCTVs. The township’s linkage to a ready fibre optic network backbone also allows for secured transmission of data,” he said.

Lao said in terms of location, Cyberjaya is the best as it is located between Putrajaya and KLIA on one end, and Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur on the other.

“Cyberjaya is presently linked by five highways — LDP, Elite, MEX, SKVE and NSE, with future highways being planned. It is also linked by rail, via the ERL service,” he said.

Hafidz said Cyberjaya has a daytime population of 53,000 who work at the numerous companies in the township, which includes 35 MNCs and 200 SMEs, or study at any one of the five universities and private colleges there.

“There is also the ELC International School located within the vicinity. The upcoming Centrus Mall and d’Pulze projects in the CBD Perdana areas will inject some retail, entertainment and leisure elements into Cyberjaya,” he said.

The Cyberjaya Premier Property Showcase will feature property talks on investing in Cyberjaya by mapmaker and research consultant Ho Chin Soon and representatives from the various participating property developers, as well as a home security presentation by a safety consultant.

There will also be guided bus tours around the township, Q&A contests, games and balloon sculptures for children.

Depending on the property developer, Lao said the incentives for buyers include rebates, developer interest bearing scheme, and financial or furnishing package.

“The bus tour will allow visitors to see what Cyberjaya has to offer and evaluate its potential.

“The show units for all featured properties will be open. The Ssho and apartment units would suit the young talent pool working in the Cyberjaya and Putrajaya vicinity, while the superlink, semi-detached and bungalow houses are ideal for those looking for nice, high-end residences,” he said.

pretty much based on your requirement and preference..
personally, as of now, its just a good place to work n study..

I like Eco Glades & Mirage by the Lake the most @ Cyberjaya.

While the success of this life style living will take few years time, I will say a good quality home will find buyer without much marketing.

Make sure u are not missed.
Make sure u choose the best.

subsale price for condo size unit in cyberia smarthomes and crescent 1 and 2 is still much cheaper than new studio launching with smaller size(still can get less than rm300 per sqf - rm350 per sqf), establish and proven renting place as well, im investing in cyberia condo since 6,7 years back....rental is so strong here... ...absolutley no problem finding tenant if u price and furnish ur unit competitively.......my 3 room condo renovate to 5 room and can fetch to max 2.1k per month... i suggest better u guys invest in condo size unit than those studio...at least if the rental rate per unit is cheap and can't cover your cost, you can still customize it and rent out by room fetching higher return...

I still remember when i bought a house in Bandar Puteri 5 years back, there was nothing, no Giant, no Hospital, no commercial and only 1 row of new shoplot selling at RM888k. After 5 years the shop lot is now selling > RM2.5m. IOI startegy was to build residential first, then build shop lots and commercial and the last and most difficult is to build office building.

today looking at cyberjaya, all the infrastucture is already there and they started with the most difficult segment which is office building. Cyberjaya already has more than 100 companies (MNC), 3 university + few international colleges. If this backbone is not strong enough to make Cyber a success, i really dunno what else will make it a success. What cyberjaya needs now is more residential and commercial, which is the easiest segment to develop. You just need to build more houses and a BIG shopping mall and the rest will be history. Personally i think Cyber will excel better than Bandar Puteri given them another 5 years.

Entry cost is expensive in Cyberjaya now (sub sale is ok), and my advise to new investors is to ensure you have the holding power.

SGD keeps rising against MYR lol.

RM is so weak yet so many people waiting.

U can wait, but the properties price will not wait for u.

Our HDB bought 2008 year end S$ 255k.
Our neighbour bought 2003/2004 S$ 155k.
Today it is asking S$ 335k, fetching S$ 2.2k rental per month.

We will buy Singapore for rental yield. Will buy more for passive income.

With this fact, I hope those still "waiting" understands what is inflation. When central banks keep printing money, they are robbing your money away. Too bad we can't print together, else we shall buy more printers.

If DesaPark City & Eco Park can do it, Eco Glades will do it.

If u have been to Kuantan, if u know where is Indera Mahkota...

Both Cyberjaya & Indera Mahkota is our government territory, both very nice & well planned.

The difference? Cyberjaya is freehold. Cyberjaya is targeting mid to high income. Cyberjaya is attracting different races...

Many who doubt Cyberjaya will success, because they always "highlight" the "Sillicon Valley" loh.

9 out of 10 of Cyberjaya buyers, they bought not because of "Sillicon Valley".

I was one who doubted CBJ kau2. but then changed my opinion. Do more research and probably u will end up like me.kekekeke and ya, i also didnt buy because of "silicon valley of malaysia".

i agreed with you.

last few pieces of freehold land
good access to highway
good infrasturcture
well planned township
green township
lots of offices and job opportunties
attract middle/high income group of population
schools and universities

Not really....that is if you only evaluate based upon loan rate vs rental yield.

There are some areas in which you could still get 7-8% gross and compare with interest rate at 4.x% ....

Also, there are people with solid cash.....so for them, they would compare based on FD rate vs yield.

My brother got 1 cyberia unit just clean up want to sell.

High Floor @ 1060 sq/ft.

Comes with aircond and water heater.... Selling as my bro migrating.

Pm me your offers
