Hi, I am planning to get a condo in Mont Kiara/Dutamas area. For investment purpose. Budget around RM800k. May I get all sifu opinions, which is the best Mont Kiara Condo that suit my requirement? Thank you very very much.

800k dutamas?

28dutamas or NK.

what type of backup fund and what's it for? just curious hah

Palma! To me that's the best condo among all in terms of landscape, neighbor, maintenance, most of all, it suits your budget. Solid building cos built by Sunrise.

What is ur requirement? Only investment?

Best Condo in MK is MK10 (seni second lor). Ur thread abit misleading..
He asked u to keep 24 months installment cos it's not very easy to rent condo's out in MK... Moreover, no train stations coming up, so MK in the future will be more suited to own stay

Ya agree, the expats now don't get company cars but car allowance instead. So these expats will choose somewhere with LRT/MRT stations nearby.

Sure no trains coming to MK?

If its for investment, I'll personally stay away from MK unless if you have strong holding power

I think all the catalysts in Mont Kiara have been reached right. So no upcoming projects that will boost Mont K value up another notch. Capital appreciation and rental both lousy at current psf entry price. Unless for own stay, I would avoid.

what about the new segambut fly over boasting access to mk?
segambut dalam have a lot of lands that are waiting to be transformed into mk. those projects are cheap (relative to "real" mk units)

MK is over saturated and over-built. When the new shopping malls are launched, it will be worse. No proper thoughts given to building infrastructure, access roads, carparks etc. The situation is quite stressful especially at the traffic junctions and entrances to One MK and Plaza MK.

becareful...many MK taigor will come in and shoot u very soon...

The original plan when developing MK was different from today's MK. It was Alan Tong sold his Sunrise in 1997 then the plan changed. If one would really wanna invest in MK, pick the first road where Plaza Mt Kiara / One MK is.

I have been here since MK Pines (Phase 1) was built 20 years ago. If anyone has been here longer than me then I will call him taikor.

I think access is the main issue MK facing?

Other than that seems the property price still alright, how about safety?

You are looking for completed or under construction ? If existing one you might consider Dutamas.

so many self professed tai kors here.....but TS edi long gone after 1st spam

Hi, Dutamas very high price, right? Is it the one next to Publika?

Mk only 2 spots worth to invest. Along jalan kiara 1 and near kiaraville, seni, tiffany there. Don't hope for MRT. just too long to wait. need to wait 7-10 years or even more... Sibeh Too long. also mk way too many condo units. Try bangsar area better more high end feel.
