Hmm.... Nidz, what's your opinion of this clips location, location and location ?? Will it be a wise choice for investment ?

Since I am planning to buy this project for own stay, I do not know whether it will be a wise decision for investment.
But, from my observation, let's say that I decided to stay in another place when this project is finally finished. I don't think that I will have trouble in selling this unit or renting it out. My points are:
1) By the time this project is completed, the shopping mall will already be in full swing. Seeing the current trends in property near shopping malls which I am familiar with, (Empire Subang, Setiawalk Puchong), this project is better located and the mall is really huge!! Biggest GSC cinema, bowling alleys, ice skating rink... and aside from the office towers, they are already planning the second phase of the mall. The total mall size will be 2.2 million sqft net lettable area. As a comparison, Mid Valley is 1.7 mil and Pavillion is 1.4 mil (Same size of the first phase of IOI City Mall).
2) This project is the newest residential project in that township. The existing Puteri Palma was already sold out (except for their penthouse) and currently fetching a good rental rate at rm2k - rm3k. The buyer of this project will have the advantage of first mover in this township. Provided that all things stay the same and the property bubble doesn't burst, the developer will almost always increase the selling price of the next phase development in that township. So, I can say that these first mover will have the cost advantage of their units.
3) Traffic wise, I don't think it would become a major problem even if the mall is in full swing. The reason being, IOI will be planning their traffic route in this township very carefully. I say this because this area is their HQ, and Tan Sri also lives there, in the Diamond Hill.
This is my current analysis for choosing this project for my own stay. Investment wise, I really don't know how it will be in the future, but currently the signs are good. But of course, further analysis is needed.
Just my 2 cents
