jagalat kor, thanks for the updated pixs. fr my view i think the project is at least 4 months behind time..

heard ikea cochrane will b operational by christmas this yr.

Yes it will..around 30% bigger than damansara.. some extra sections nvr in SEA b4...5th biggest in the world.. whole MRT stretch will have many malls.. I think velocity really need to up the ante as i dnt see why someone would walk over from ikea to velo.. Hope EKCs malls can have good FnB tenants for the jiulai crowds..

It's okay lar. The failure of those mixed mrt and shopping mall projects a good lesson to government and developer to wake up and focus on real human resources development but not every year gdp mainly depends on internal real estate flipping

*12. Miharja Apartment / Condominium @ Maluri MRT Station
11. The Sentral Residence @ KL Sentral MRT Station

Author say: "Whichever property is your final pick, you’d probably won’t go wrong
because time and time again, properties nearing to public transport has shown
to command a premium rent over other locations."

Do you agree??

Me not author(nor part of) of the above article!!

Was reading a report that mention property within walking distance to lrt station enjoy 20% higher rental.

The missed point is the price which i believe most already factor in the MRT price. Just for example Sqwhere and Saville Cheras which located at middle of nowhere... The price is significantly higher and i believe easily >20% higher than the property beyond the vicinity of the MRT stations.

nice list.... thanks for sharing that jagalat.

agreed. need careful consideration whether a very good property is priced too good, and will not return a good profit as compared to a medium property at a low price...

+1 priced too high, will not return a good profit rite?

when petrol price start spicking up again, doz lrt/mrt linked projects will definitely command a better rent going forward.

walking distance with cover bridge only attractive . some station also got alot old apartment with walking distance.
malaysia still too hot to walk

dats why ekocheras with its covered bridge shud do well.

I bliv within 200m is v good even if no bridge...I saw connexion ioi city ad saying 700m from ioi city..sure those ppl nvr walk 700m b4.. for commie to be effective with mall or train need to be 100-150m n direct frontage..

build the bridge is easy just who want maintaince the bridge ~
if got bridge come with aircon then lagi best

Taken yesterday, in the afternoon...
Slighty a bit more area dug compared to 2~3 weeks ago.
Slow progress la.
