Frankly, I have no prior experience buying from MahSing nor heard much bad things about it. It used to be a Chinaman developer in that the design and all are typical. But it has changed if you noticed in the last 3 years. The designs are more contemporary.

Bear in mind that Lakeville's architect is Architect 61, a Singaporean outfit. Also, the builder is from China. Don't think it's a small player can handle such a big job.

Cina contractors have experience in hamdling big or high density project and FAST and perhaps cheaper.

Quality dunno.

Today minister said can rent out rumawip subject to few conditions. Expect demand to go up.

Haha. I thought of this too. Own house in Selangor can buy Rumawip. Now own house in KL but 'work' in Selangor can rent out. Quite consistent logic. Kaka.

Enjoy...

It proved ms brand was powerful, reputable and has many followers.
Guess the borrower failed to service even one single repayment. As borrower has signed PA to bank, bank could exercise its rights anytime.

Another powerful, reputable brand with many followers.

Like leverage, zero down/cash back is a double edged sword to flipper/investor.

property overhang exists between borrowers/buyers and developers. whether to bnm to assist borrowers or developers to reduce overhang depend on economic impact. current consensus is, it is more economical beneficial to allow developers to survive, overstretched borrowers is a collateral damage and will benefit those yet to buy first home. 

heard some banks have own valuation for new launch, no longer take developer price as whole. hence, don't offer margin of finance as developers claimed or planned.

Is MH sales really that bad that will results to auction? Or other reason?

No bidder yesterday. Nobody interested.
Last month got a same size level 40 unit sold at 520k via lelong. But this month 486k attracted zero interest. Lelong also got season one it seems.
