I am a Kinrara Mas owner and stay here. I can say that its a very good place to live. We have very good mix of Malaysian races here. Also there are few students and Africans too, but so far they don't cause much of issue.

For investment also good as they are food outlets, shopping complex,  major highways and future Station 4 LRT are very very nearby.

For a price around 300k to 400k, I dont think you can find any condo within this strategic are that offer all these advantages.

So buy sooner rather than later as price will increase especially when LRT is completed in 2014.

A little bit congested in the morning from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM.. So if you can go out in the morning sharp at 7 AM (or earlier), then it would not be so congested. I work in Bangsar and manage to arrive in the office in 15 - 25 mins if I go out at 7 AM. I travel via Jalan Puchong and Jalan Klang Lama. If you work in KL (E.g. KLCC) then you go straight via KESAS & MEX highway. Congested a little bit before entering the highway. After that, smooth until KL.

A huge advantage of Kinrara Mas (and all of Bandar Kinrara too) area is that you will have at least 3 main roads to reach any part of KL. Either via (LDP + Federal Hway) or (Jalan Puchong + Jalan Klang Lama) or (Lebuhraya Bukit Jalil + KESAS + MEX). Each will have their own pros and cons in term of traffic, cost and distance. Depending on the time, you can choose which are the best route. Another advantage is that Cyberjaya also is quite near, so if you happen to work in Cyberjaya, its still ok to stay in Kinrara. For me its in the middle of all prime areas without costing prime prices.

Future potential is there also as 2 proposed highways will pass through Kinrara which are KIDEX and SKIP, and of course LRT extensions in 2014. Kinrara will have 2-3 stations.

Hope more Kinrara Mas folks can share your life experiences too.

sure ah 4k+ units in Parklane OUG? I thot like 1.5K only

Yeah.. Parklane OUG will definitely congest the traffict in jalan puchong and klang lama. But so are other strategic and prime places. Developer will keep building properties when they see the potential and demand.
We can only hope government will confirm and speed up the proposed highways and LRT extensions to ease the traffict. At least, from kinrara mas, you can still reach bangsar via LDP + Federal or Bukit Jalil + Sg Besi.

Yes there is a long single road going in and out of KMas. But as long as you have transport, shouldnt be a big issue. Lets just hope the LRT feeder bus wil come in to pickup KM folks.

its near a graveyard right ?

N bear in mind, there is another development on jalan puchong...so i believe traffic will be quite congested on peak hour...

What development is that ?

I have thought to grab a unit in Kinraramas too, but the graveyard and hindu temple draw me back to get one. Since you dont mind every morning open you balcony and breath in the so 'grave' atmosphere, that's should not a problem for you. But how about hindu temple?Mean, lot of  mix black will gather there. No offense, just me 2cents.

t3n..if you don't mind the current single road in and out of KM and the hindu temple beside..go ahead..RM300-350 per sqft is VERY reasonable for a condo in Bandar Kinrara..with room for appreciation due to the upcoming KIDEX and SKIP highway..not to mention the future LRT station in the vicinity..

i heard that the hindu temple might eventually be moved to another place..is it true??

Haha..to move a temple is more difficult than to move a hill.

But i heard that temple brought good fortune to MIdvalley Megamall.

So, start praying there and make contribution to the temple.

Kinrara Mas Auction

can try your luck

For me next to graveyard and temple is a BIG NO. But its individual preference.

Hi, I am a Kinrara mas owner, staying here 2 yrs ++, is a peace full place,  in Puchong is very difficult to buy $300 - 350 psf with free hold land.  Kinrara mas is undet value  seriously think about it!  Tips for u,  Blk A facing guard house (facing East + South) view is better,  because nothing future development will blok your beautiful view,  but is very limited units.  Just to my cents!  ;-)

If you like pool and KL view, I recommend Block A. The higher the better. Block B (facing KL) also can, but might see the grave yard especially the most left one.

For Puchong view, any unit will do, just for Block B, choose level 7 and above, as unit 6 and below view got blocked by MPHall.

This my personal recommendation. Others might differ and disagree.

You can see the asking price trends of KM here : http://www.propwall.my/bukit_jalil/kinrara_mas/classifieds
Looks like for 1091sf unit, the price is RM300k++ while 1231sf unit price is RM400k++. Depends on renovation and furnish level.
Definitely cheaper than The Zest. I think its fair given its advantages and disadvantages.

find few banks around puchong and old klang road, any bank MBB PBB RHB etc etc.. just randomly say you interested to buy KM and looking for loan and want to know whats the last transacted price or just say you are owner and interested to refinance.. get quote from few banks and compare..

those classified are just references, some are over valued..

ah... t3n... maybe today is your lucky day...

Original asking price normally memang over valued. That's why you need to see, evaluate and negotiate to reduce the price. That's why some investors prefer buying sub-sale cause everything is negotiable .

Auction price can also be a good indicator of a 'minimum' value of the house. There is 1 unit of 1091sf KM for auctioned this 19th Nov 2012. Here : http://www.propertyguru.com.my/property-li...t-jalil-1559387

Hi, did you buy Kinrara Mas in the end?
