If want to buy DP, buy sub sales better.
Less risk

Bro, maintenance done by JMB not developer la.

The first 1-2 years handled by developer but developer don't do it properly and jmb need to takeover all the shits.
For example mk land suppose to give 2 years defect Waranty to the common amenities but they don't maintain and repair, residents need to pay themselves from their sinking funds.

That is true oso. I overlooked that.

my point of view Damansara perdana is still lack of many basic infrastructures, like schools, hospital, padang besar, bus station... this one should blame MK land , they didnt plan a township well enough for such a good location...

beside that. the hills look very dangerous.

bro, MK was pretty much behind the appointment in those time. even with property management, there's backdoor meeting possible.

That is correct also. You need to threaten them a little to get things done.

haha.. they have lawyers as adviser too. they ain't stupid. the more mileage they gets , it's better for them . that's y things get to resolved after many many red tapes and many years.. some tenant's also moved out knowing them too well. that's the reason y more and more chinese prefers toyota and honda for peace of mind. at least not so bad than proton.

No school, No hospital, No recreational park. A classic concrete jungle.
And it is a majority ASEAN-African-Korean Nation.
For a few dollars more, go Bandar Utama or Mutiara, worth every cents paid.

define "a few dollars more". a basic 3 rm apartment in DP is about 500k for 900sft. for roghly the same the choices are pelangi condo in BU. between the two i think i prefer DP.
BU are mainly houses, and i don't think it's a "few dollars more". more like 1M more.
mutiara D the condos there aren't cheap.
one can also say "don't buy flora damansara, for a few dollars more better buy DP". but the fact is, a subsale DP unit is twice the price of flora D. there will still be people who buy in flora D.

yeah...very skewed view.
I have 10 units for rent in DP, and i don't have so-called ASEAN-African-Korean tenant profiles.
My tenants are majorities Malaysian families (covers all Malay-Chinese-Indians) and also European.

the question is you want to buy at dp
for own stay or invesment. personally i regret didnt bought it during 2009-2010. Where i could bought a 900 sqr ft for 260k. Investment wise its a good location depends on how you view it.

Constructions of Dash Highway - Noise and dust pollution, Traffic congestion.
Hilly Slope - Do you remember highland towers and it's surrounding?
MK land, Any idea?
Poor maintenance overall, Poor infra, Leasehold, and home to ASEAN-Afican-Korean...
My old man always told me 'If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys'.
Of course i will prefer BU or KJ... for a few dollars more.

I am not being stereotyped as i don't own any property in this area.
But,
I worked in BU for the past 7 years, and i've like 200-300 colleagues staying in BU, DP, MD, KJ, KD, TTDI...
I heard the Good, the Bad and the Ugly from different owners.

Bro, 2009-2010, for 250k-300k you can buy a Landed Freehold Double Storey House in many well established township in Klang Valley lo...
PJ SUBANG PUCHONG KELANA JAYA USJ KOTA KEMUNING etc etc etc you name it.
Why leasehold apartment on the hilly slope?

10 units in DP alone?
Investopedia 101, Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

I expect your next reply will sounds like:
Actually, i have 10 units in DP and 100 units in BU and another 100 units in TTDI.
Sort of.

But i've about 30 Malaysian colleagues and 8 Korean colleagues staying in DP.
I think i know about the situation there quite well.

You seem answered your own question.
By the way, I lived in BU before and now TTDI.

We are not competing who know more ppl living in DP. Just that your earlier statement about ASEAN-African-Korean was a sweeping statement.

Yup. I am a simple person. When i see DP, i can only think of ASEAN-African-Korean community. and i love multiracial society.
By the way, owning 10 units condominiums in a particular place doesn't help you change the demographic of the area.

If you do love multiracial society, then what is the issue if the DP has the nationalities that you mentioned?


Another sweeping statement from you by saying ppl invest in x amount of condo in a Y area because they intend to change the demographic

Hi! Just want to check whether anyone knows what is the limit that housing tribunal oversees with regards to LAD? Is it up to rm50k or rm250k?

Heard it has gone up to rm250k but unsure whether this is genuine info.
