So what is the expected rental yield if one wants to invest and rent?

I think this is less of a yield play and more of a caps play if you ask me.

If for cap play, don't the existing condos by Sunrise subsales btw 550-650 psf is a better deal with more cap upsides?

But if you want a guesstimate rental. I would Say RM4000 to RM4500 per month. Not that I am saying it is easy to rent though.

Assume this rental(despite on high side in today's rental mkt in MK) for 1200sf @ 900psf, nett rental yield is 4% max.... this is not attractive to me

Well this is a niche play that applies for the Luxury segment. There is very limited luxury segment of mid sized in Mont Kiara. Mostly large ones surrounding Mont Kiara with the exception of Verve which is small units and Tiffany which has some small units. So this one fills the gap and rides on a luxurious name.

But yeah I do agree that other subsale condos have good upside in Mont Kiara. Its just that this one is a different feel and segment. Don't ask me in too detail though. I ain't the super rich and glamourous.

You pts are on emotional benefits but I am an investor who only influenced by numbers.... this is a cash flow negative investment to me.... opposite HARTAMAS regency across the road is few hundred psf cheaper and more legs to run

Its a different game. I am an investor by numbers too. I don't play by emotional benefits but I can understand the emotional benefits.
For me I'll go for good yields and value.

Oh and just for the sake of it. I had been targeting Hartamas Regency since it was RM500k range 1 and 1/2 years back

Those who bought HR earlier are laughing and counting the chickens now

ok    For me it's very simple , I looked around (but excused me for using bubbles to describe it but others may call it increase in price)

1. KLCC - 100% to 300% bubbles
2. PJ area - 100% to 200% bubbles
3. Cyberjaya - 100% to 200% bubbles
4. Other Klang valley suburbs: 100 to 300% bubbles
5. Bangsar - 30% to 50% bubbles
6. Mont Kiara - 10% to 30% bubbles
(all price based on new launch prices and not resale since 2010)

I picked the one with less bubbles- in case it burst, I also foresee a lot of momentum for MK 3 to 5 years down the road and I am a bit brand-concious (not too much  ) and I like MK so this is my natural choice. 

Investing in luxury condo u shldnt be concern of rental yield. If rental yield is your concern then I would say tat one shld look elsewhere. Luxury condo is not suitable for every dollars to be calculate investors. If u do not hav deep pocket, forget it.
Able to purchase a luxury condo usually this group of player are less concern of that monthly rental collection. Or I would say there are already a substantial group even got no intention to rent out.
For the reason I say potential, do read back past post....
Anyway this is also not my game....

1200psf considered luxury? My read your luxury definition is 900psf, MK address, Pavillion branding and only for those gullible water fish with deep pockets to keep this in the stamp album. Phew luckily I am not in this luxury group

1200sf luxury or not depend on individual point of view. 1 person staying in 1200sf can it become or consider luxury?
My post states tat this is luxury condo, didnt specifically state tat 1200sf is luxury.
i says 1200sf is potential because its rare find for such size in that neighborhood....
I never consider property purchaser as water fish or not.... Everybody purchase property for their own reason, which other may not understand too.... Not everybody view things in a similar angle, do respect others ppl decision. The end.
