my preference would be somewhere in the middle. Not too high,not too low. That is for staying la.

For rental, I always think the lowest is thebest coz in most places, the lowest floor is the cheapest. Therefore more margin for you to play around in rental compared to owners who bought higher floor than you.

He has no choice but to charge higher rental coz his monthly installment also higher.

for me it depends, if for own stay i will buy above mid level but not the highest floor. However if it goes like mayland style (increment of rm3k per floor) and i am buying to rent out, i will choose the lowest one so i could rent it the cheapest. not everybody really bothers about view that much and usually balcony is underutilized. mostly prefer better interior design etc (for expat market). for local market, i will decorate so-so but nice to the eyes

if so, maybe a lot of people buying skypod either for own stay or to flip ( different strategy - bigger build up, more expensive but higher selling price later).for rental, the smaller the better (not too small though)
