Room to grow in AI is there as there is still big piece of land but at snail pace. For own stay still ok, investment need to hold long.

My 2 cents on Rimbayu vs Alam Impian
1) Leasehold vs Freehold
2) Future MRT vs unlikely in near future
3) Smaller build up and land szie vs bigger build up and land size
4) Telok Panglima Garang vs Shah Alam
5) More promo vs less promo

Could be LRT not MRT. Subject to change until confirm award anyway. But at least a thought was put up

Nobody will invest commercial in restricted zone and landlocked area (toll,no major main access,no attraction) , no outsider will think to go in.

Most of the time, shoplots are more for local residence, there might be some occasional visitors, but ultimately, the business need to be sustainable by the local consumption. Actually, nowadays, majority of malls also pretty much the same with so many community malls all over the place and having the identical or similar tenants

Depends, bought for stay no, bought for flip yes.

Agreed. Alam impians only few usps imho is d direct acces to lksa which leads u to federal n kesas and the very nive/modern looking houses. everything else is nt good to me. the township was launched 10 yrs ago n still some wana say commercial must wait slowly?? NO mall operator or tenant would wana open here, commmercial shops are very few and you are landlocked in a tolled highway with hardly any free access other than jln kebun on the other end.

I have a few friends thr n they say its a struggle to eat/buy groceries etc. After awhile u will get used to the jail ie you do most of your things before cmng back to alam impian unless u wana pay d toll again.

So cheap. Like cheaper than subsales nia. Usually new launch is 30++% higher than subsale.

freehold or lease this area?

wa.... pricing seems quite nice for 24x80.... haha.... bumi get zero down package somemore shiok.... nett pricing rm630k++ for bumi....

yea.... underutilized.... by right can maxed up to 2500 sqft above.... maybe they wanna sell new concept of back garden with nice back lane maybe....   

what do u think of the potential of alam impian? will it become another setia alam...? considering the location closer to subang, shah alam center those? the pricing and the land size should attract alot of buyers also i guess... regardless of the build up.... haha

setia alam have pasang lang support them alot..... alam impian distance wise to KL better than setia alam... but the population that support them very saturated.... feel like going forward.... in future more likely to be ara damansara type.... haha... last time everyone selling AI to be next setia alam.... the hype.... lol

the potential very much depends on how developer execute their development plan... so far I don't see any great potential here...
own a unit in TTDI Alam Impian few years ago... the price is stagnant for at least 3 years in TTDI Alam Impian... I believe I&P Alam Impian more or less the price also stagnant...

this area need more commercial activities... lack of commercial phase and keep postponed and postponed... marketing lose 9 road compare to EcoWorld... EW execution fast and launch commercial phase even before the residential phase VP...

All housing development area under MBSA will be based on certain theme. For Alam Impian it's based on ancient figures. There are more weird road names in other area under MBSA.

Alam Impian road names seem heroic to me.

what is the % of buyer/owner in this project in terms of races ?
( i'm not racist ya...but to find out )

Total 49 units with 30 applications. Not really that bad after all.

I was expecting lesser.

You are right. The current leftover mcm all facing a dead end or somewhere.. Anyway comparing to rimbayu (me).. This mcm got more space wor.. Got upper family room  each room seperate bathroom.. Hmmm difficult to make decision. The sales agent say 3% rebate is before 16 July for the orkestra..

Guys, do you guys do termite preventation before renovation in Alam Impian? I heard palm oil land are prone to termite issue

Don't be too greedy, eventually your children's children will suffer from this 

only regret is my grandfather sold his prime land in KUL before it manage to became prime land... just nearby TRX aje....
