That's sad. Half a million. Was it only in covid time?

Yeah I have read this and other threads but a lot of comments were from quite a few years ago. Was wanting to see if things have changed. Thanks for your feedback bro! Definitely doing my DD. Still.. it's an interesting prospect to have a unit so close to a hub of many international universities.

For targeting the educity students, I would say I would prefer more towards high rise generally. Plus, landed seems to be a bit expensive in Johor and higher risk. Small high rise units (studio or 1 bed) can be more affordable and less risk overall. And usually landed properties is quite bad for investment (monthly rental compared to installment amount).

Also, not sure if many people rent landed properties in Johor? Got a lot?

Has your friend got her strata title? I heard the Meridin owners sued Mah Sing and won because there are problems getting the title transferred.
