But if for investment..you gotta know your exit stratergy if things doesnt work out. Foreigners now can only buy unit 1million above (not sure if this applied for sovo too or not). 350k unit for 380 sqft could be quite pricey to sell for malaysian for subsales market, and you wont sell for the same price u bought. Fully furnish rental should be able to fetch 1.5k/month if 4 years later they are expats willing to stay in pavi bj instead of usual spot mont kiara and bangsar

Boss, I not sure if I am wrong, from what I know of Empire Damansara was SOHO or studio that allowed for own residential usage, therefore the rental kicking quite good due to smaller space and absolute price back then upon launching was quite cheap.

I not sure if there is any SOVO or SOFO project that has been completed with performance to see the yield.

Sorry to all that I am a bit skeptical about the term of SOVO or SOFO bcz under Office term but I am well received of SOHO / Studio for residential usage.

You need to put yourself in the shoes of your prospects, not impose your own perceptions and prejudices on what's suitable and what isn't, unless u r buying Revo for own use......

Many can do in small size studio. Those stay in Japan, Korea, London , Paris or other big cities know this.

Currently i rent a 200sft small room in KL

I think we need to establish one fact.... everyone desire to own a larger space called home... either when future upgrade, as single, marriage or build a family.

However, to climb a property ladder anyone need to start from somewhere. By budget, location etc. With RM300k, you cannot even get dsl house in Semenyih now. The way i look at it this product, if for own usage (of course if you can accept the concept, suit your lifestyle etc) you can use it for next 3-5 years until you build sufficient equity for your next purchase.

for investors, normally this product is very liquid for rental and common to be rented out within a month or two after fitted up.

Another one good thing about this property is after your move on, the product is pretty liquid for rental as most of the time it is next to major commercial, in good location, access and amenities.

Btw one of my frend sold his Empire Damansara 363sf studio to own stayer. There are market out there if you do not put yourself on the own shoes.... 

I do agree that we are not living in tokyo or paris
There are so many plenty of choice in klang valley
Why so desperate to rent a pigeon hole even if it is near a nice mall ?
For me I will gone mad if going to live in such a small room
Not to forget need to compete with park sky rental and malton / ho hup new launch of residence in BJC at the remaining land

which means 1500sf/4 = 375sf is very good for a single person 😄

Is not about the size.... it's more about the Affordability of the Rental Amount.

Many working professional single ladies don't mind smaller places as they only come back to sleep after long hour work.

Gen Y-ers are renting that amount for a highrise small unit elsewhere in Klang Valley as got all for yourself, facilities and privacy.

I think the tenant demographic for compact space is not limited to 1 & 2. i have local malay lady who work as PR in branded hotel and local indian guy rent studio from me.

According to The star, 2.4m. More than 2m net lettable.
I am more interested to know how small and those area to be replace by what.    Hope bosses from forum can update more.

agree with u on whether 1kpsf is cheap is highly debatable. Trying to think of any 300sf office spaces that are successful?

friend jus bought a klcc soxo at 1kpsf while this was asking for 1kpsf 3yrs back+ 5-7% of unfavorable interest and a lot of other soxo challenges.

Took some pictures on Sovo construction progress.

HoHup --> This is called "practically completed" and can claim last 5% from purchaser mei ?? 

VP in September is unlikely. AURORA PLACE(3, 4, and 5-storey shop-offices) also many touch-up not completed yet.

               

According to my SPA schedule, delayed VP and LD kick-in starting mid of Aug....let's see if HH will compensate 10% LD     

Have to sue them. Only viable if claims are big

There is no law in Malaysia?
