i mean cyber will never please everyone - that we can be sure. u need to like cyber for what it is

u will absolutely love the tranquility but make your move quick as traffic and people are increasing every year.

Actually, it's the other way around. We think there are a group of people deliberately propping up Cyberjaya for their own vested intersest. 

Many of us have lived and worked in Cyberjaya so we're a bit skeptical when it comes to investing in Cyberjaya. No doubt it's a nice place to live, otherwise I wouldn't have been there for 10 years. Quiet suburban with lots of delicious, diverse cuisines.  And to those of you who are planning to live there, please note that some of us are asking these questions from an investor point of view.

you are not stupid. not many has the income as you or your friends, as well as the sizeable portfolio that you have. only those who already made it will find a ulu place to stay.    those who still cheong to earn their first million will always look at KL core area.

I have been searching for a house for own stay for more than a year. Have searched through the whole KV and finally found Cyber is the best place for own stay.

Death town is not an issue. Too far also not an issue. No entertainment, no food, no shopping mall....all not an issue. I only worry too many PR1MA or low cost coming up. That is really an issue. Really don't want to see pisang goreng on the roadside or nasi lemak in the morning.

For own stay I prefer Cyber as per current cyber or slightly "happening'  a bit. If too much 'happening' also no good, not suitable for own stay.

I remember sometime ago, there is a mention of Pr1ma will be next to Setia Eco Glades the yeasayer said it's not a problem at all. Nevertheless, I don't think there is nothing can be done about this, everything is already determined, 大局已定。

Ya, keen to know if anyone is using this kindy for their kiddos. We looking for decent playschool for our grandchild. And also a decent wet market!!  Ya, lol, there r Cyberjaya ppl who cook or at least tries to if fresh produce r easily available.

I hv been a silent reader of this forum for quite some time n hv been researching on CJ since 2008 when we accidently landed near the lake area when trying to go to Putrajaya. It was love at first sight!

Long story short. After going through a roller coaster of emotions of whether to take the plunge or not (like many forummers here looking to buy into CJ) we eventually put money where our mouth is and bought a property in 2011.

We moved from a very matured neighbourhood in PJ n moved to CJ in July last year. While we are yay-sayers we won't discount what the nay-sayers got to say as rubbish.  Their observations r fairly accurate.

When u r in love u see thru rose-tinted glasses but reality hits when u r desperately trying to find a market or small supermart like JayaGrocers (can't wait for  DPulze to open) to put home cooked meals on the table without having to travel kilometres to get supplies.  No malls as yet but hope DPulze will turn out to be like BSC or The Village in Bangsar.  Cafe/restaurants food pretty decent but not cheap. Even food in Dengkil is not cheap compared to PJ. Anyway can't be eating out everyday and every meal, right? Even if can afford it, eating out long term is unhealthy.

Not all banks r represented in CJ. Nearest Public Bank is in Putrajaya some 12 or 13 km away as is Alamanda (shop selection so blah!)  Lol, frens  who used to convenience of PJ quite shocked when told Alamanda considered near. They say one visit to our place is gd enough. Although they v impressed with CJ infrastructure, landscape, nice buildings n houses n eateries, not at all like the ghost town they thought, they say the lack of malls, market, public schools n the distance puts them off. While using MEX or LDP is fast enough, it's at the expense of the pocket due to toll rates n extra petrol. We calculated it wld be abt RM50+ from CJ to PJ n back. Our grandkid's parents r finding it tiresome n expensive for the daily commute to/from CJ for the child to be cared by us. They work n live in KL. Now the problem is finding good playschool.

Living in CJ right now is not cheap because it is lacking in some basic amenities  n the scale of economies to make it a fairly affordable n self-sustaining township. Glad things are looking in right direction and improving and can be further improved on. Hope forummers from Setia Haruman r reading this. They hold the key to fulfilling CJ's tag line of being a place to "LIVE, study, work and PLAY." (Aiyoh, reported to Indah Waterworks abt the overflowing sewer manhole near our area. Was told Setia Haruman has not handed over to them yet n they have directed our complaint to Setia Hauman. Been two months already manhole still overflowing. Now our area not fully occupied yet wonder what will happen if every house occupied n waste is directed to that faulty manhole!)

All the above aside, we r still in love with CJ n don't foresee ourselves moving out anytime soon. It's got that kind of 'feel' that u can't get anywhere else. Our Singaporean frens say it reminds them of Sentosa Cove :-). Maybe we r retired and can be patient for CJ to come to full bloom. We hv many absent neighbours, mostly young professionals, who obviously are buying into the area for investment only n holding on to their properties until they get the price they want. So if u want in on CJ, it's for the long haul. CJ is no flippers' paradise especially if u enter now. Like someone here say, "It will be boomtown Charlie!" if Setia Haruman steers it in the right direction especially on the "LIVE n "PLAY" part. Not saying its not happening yet but can speed up the pace a bit. But then there is the conundrum of demand vs supply or the chicken and egg syndrome, right?

Alot of banks are in cbj already - HSBC,  maybank, cimb, bank ray at,  etc. It's just a matter of time public bank will come in. I'm not concerned about the malls, ioi city mall n others will open quite soon

Prefer to see the glass as half full rather than half empty   All that negativity abt CJ may well turn out to be a self-fufilling prophesy!

Internally it looks like Cheras Sentral. At least, shops are reno now.

How about using the park and ride facilities.

DPC started to sell their SAFA i think around year 2002/2003
