Low ceiling is the recipe to lower down the cost. If it can build 5 storey of condo in 4 storey overall ceiling height. Construction cost saving is 20%.

that provided you understand the rental market and targeted market well, meaning only targeting at single expat that doesn't do any entertainment at home. basically a place for him/her to sleep.

but there are 1000units in one single development......if you take into acc of dual key, it will be easily 1500 or more units of similar configuration.

like I said earlier...for short term tenant, perhaps it fits the purpose.

Invest RM 400k for 3 years and get RM 100k as return, I think it might be not a lot for some but for me, it's consider good and not bad. The most important thing for me is how liquid is the property can be sell upon VP or completed later? If easily can flip for RM 100k profit within 3 years, thats decent enough.

If put in RM 400k and probably got RM 300-400k return on paper, however if only got market value but without buyer and zero viewing, that investment also become useless and strictly non liquid asset. There are also cost going to be incurred upon holding every month.

Maybe, but btw property and stock, I feel property is less risk but longer game. I didnt do well on my stock investment, but not bought too many either. Some of my friends bought a lot but never see they earned big money.

My info on vortex is very fragmental....

Better do your own diligent research.

Alll i know now is tenants are hard to find for vortex...and they are throwing rediculous price to owners to rent...

Will you buy over 1 mil property in klcc with blocking view?

I'm not sure how far price will go for Skysuites after completed. Vortex no matter how unit got view.
Skysuites is windows view.

My meaning is for sub sale market. Will buyer pay over 1mil for window view?
Scary is when you look up. Cant even see the sky.
Vortex is different, as least got other high rise building view.

Yup, Soho suites & Vortex.

But with monoland..u cant pick your feng shui unit...
The developer gave u what u need to buy....

I thought the 3 sides of the land are franked by buildings....and right in front of the 3blocks..there is one more block (not blocking the entire 3 blocks but some units).

Not 100% true, some units at the back facing KL Tower (Block A), and facing Jln Ampang/ Zouk/ Maya Hotel (Block C).
the back facing not entirely blocked by idaman as mentioned by GKS

Those facing idaman units ok lah...a good 50' away.

Even landed smds yr neigbour is a mere 20' away nia...

The only diff is smds usually have 5' high barrier....but condos u see terang terang....

Also yr units will get min amount of sunlight per day...

for those whom are into hedging strategy, there are some 3-bedders units @ 1.2k sqf can close at 850k, circa 710/sqf.. these are not subsale, it's completed 1st hand developers' holding units and quite matured, with almost fully furnished, standard carpark & > 10ft ceiling height..

i mean, i don't follow klcc much nowadays, in fact, never been vested... but random dogging still reveals that there are worthy buys around klcc.. discount the 4-5 years construction interest costs, well below 700/sqf with immediate PRC company taking up the tenancy..

nvt, being a typical monoland a.k.a. gca product and no-frills pricing with almost zero marketing cost, no carparks.. congrats for those who managed to get a unit but as in most investments, know your gameplan..

to me, regalia not considered klcc..

subject is along the stretch of jalan ampang around 1.5x, maybe 2x the distance from skysuites to ptt but still very walkable, certainly not regalia..

oops, sorry ah bosses sekalian.. i forgot tim to speak piger's lingo, lost touch a bit, not write like prop review hor.. hehe

but hor, those whom pm me memang lagi chim, asking whether this is a GRQ scheme..? i think so lah, if u can flip american-burger for a day to earn 200k profit..

anw, from the last few posts and the pm's itself, i am guessing lah..

1. many pigers here still got moolah to whack, mortgage aside..
2. serial investors are still digging below market props in klcc, got research project summore..
3. smallest is not always better, price-point is less sensitive now..

trying to stick close to the skysuites topic..

It also depends on the age (excuse me if this has been posted earlier). I know 2 condos (think 200m apart) in KLCC area, one going for 1600psf and the other 700psf. Needless to say, the 700psf is old while the 1600psf is fairly new.
