Dato' Chong paid RM1.2million for that house only to be able to rent to 3-4 students @ RM300 per head.  RM1,200 per month.

Assuming fully occupied throughout the year,

Gross Rental Yield p.a = 1.2%
Net Rental Yield p.a = -ve% (he is too sour to talk about it)

A lot of ppl lose money because many do not how to calculate rental yield (despite googling).  >3% per annum (net) should be treated with suspect.  These ppl will forever be poor.

If a person can buy 1.2m house, do you think he care about how many % rental yield????

people invest landed for such an amount normally targeting for value appreciation...rental is just side income or additional help

Dato Chong got not much money left.... his asking price if RM1.8mil if you want, just call the banner number.

Alot of people in Sungai Long 20 years from now, will ultimately have no money, just some rotten properties to hold on to the graves.

don't agree nevermind.  I have history and Japan to guide me.

My wife left house at 6.00am but still struck in Sg Long for 1 hour and 15 minutes !

bukit sg long got another exit? exit to which highway??

No only in Sg Long and BMC but whole Malaysia too

By the way after the widening road at Sg Long-BMC T-junction, the traffic condition simply smooth no jam 

BMC is food haven, friend of mine drive all the way from Rawang to enjoy food here.

Based on Jan 2015 China Press, there are at least 450 shoplots in BMC, one third ie 150 units are restaurant/kopitam...
I believe by now should be more than 500 shoplots in BMC, don't forget Mahkota Mall yet to open.


雖當地物業價格高得離譜，但這恰好反映出該區的繁榮與商機。

“皇冠城至少450間店舖，其中三分之一都是食肆，且空置的單位不會丟空太久，總有租戶會找上門。”

The following link show the so called "good" restaurants in BMC by some critics may serve as a reference.

SL 4 is good provided you may need to spend more on renovation, anyway this is a 20+ years old taman.

Seri Sg Long see my previous post.

But based on SL 4 RA's face book below SL 4 already 20 years old wo. Even after 20 years the strategic location directly opposite the golf course still very much in demand

Dear section 4, great news from MPKj. Just received news from our Councillor that all roads in section 4 will be re-pave next week after almost 20 years (since the Taman was handed with keys) We're so excited after request was put up for many years ago by the committee. However, since commencement of works will pose some inconvenience to the residents, we hope for your patience for the good of the community as many road conditions are in bad shape. We would also like to request the residents to refrain from parking at the road shoulder to facilitate the smooth operations by the MPKj's contractor

Not in gd condition ? The show unit ?

hmm ... if u can afford to hire some maids then can stay big houses la. if not then i prefer to just stick to semi-d or even terrace. hahaa ... can save a lot of your cleaning work leh.
thanks for the advice bro and yes, i do have the same thoughts as u. so most likely just renovate the existing house, fix all the things that i need to fix and continue to stay there for few more years or few more 10 years.

Rottting?

In your opinion, where would be the best place for terrace sub-sales in Bandar Sg Long? Will it be BSL / Palmwalk / SL4 / SL6,7 etc (from the point of view that the value of the house still have room for growth...most sought after )

yea ... sometimes i wonder too where the hell all these ppl come from. 2 - 3M property is like so cheap for them
I will stay away from the area that have a lot of UTAR students to be honest. 

i think got some also, always see them playing frisbee there every afternoon
