actually .. on the contrary .. I'm quite bullish on Ara ..
yes the current environment quite bleak ..
- Oasis is like dead duck not happening, same goes for Citta mall
- the Taipan commercials dead, like no life
- surrounded on one side by small industrial area ...
- daily jam on the Subang airport highway
but, bear in mind - this is the last border of PJ/Shah Alam dy, which gives you a PJ postcode ..
Oasis investor, too bad for you .. you went in too early ..
what's in the pipeline :
short term :
- opening of cinema MBO in Citta Mall - perhaps a catalyst to bring in some life to this dead mall
medium term:
- Pacific Place commercial area, with integrated commercial + LRT stop
- confirmed new college coming ? based on their GRR plan (http://www.mudah.my/Jazz+Residence+Pacific+Place+Ara+Damansara+-18410674.htm)
- Sime Plantations + Sime Motor to move there ~ long term plan
- Tesco - still happening ?
as mentioned earlier, projects in the pipeline :
Nova Saujana
Ara Greens
Verde
Pacific Place
Hijauan Saujana
and with Kencana Square at RM700psf++ , albeit a worst of location (IMHO) ... this is your last call before Ara takes off ..
Ara needs mass population .. right now its daed quiet because of the low density of the whole area ...
oh well, in desperate need of catalyst ...
so it all depends on where you want to be my friends ..
you want to be where it is, after it has boom , or you want to be there before it booms (famous puncline used by all property salesmen) .. bear in mind, I'm vested in the area
