Freehold vs leasehold? I am staying in a bungalow at section 5 PJ bought some 40 years ago at RM80,000. Now, it is valued at more than a million with 50+ years of lease to go.

Ya but you have to take into considerations that % of buyers that can afford to buy the RM5 million bungalow. It's just a value price. The higher the price, lesser demand for it. There's a sweet spot for it.

They always say 7km... 7km, but if you drive, the time to get to MCD KK is only about 5-10mins.

Actually I understand why some people uses MCD KK as yardstick. It's because MCD KK is one of the closest exit point to enter KESAS highway. For me, I will take that as a consideration too.

I don't understand why there are bashers lurking in this thread. We can't really tell if its a successful or fail project by just considering what is around the vicinity now.

A good example is Damansara Utama (aka uptown, no idea who name it as uptown as when I was a kid, it is always known as Damansara Utama). This place is very much deserted in the early 80s and it pretty much was till the 90s. There's only a Fajar opened near the clock tower (which is now dismantle) & many presume this to be a dead place. Now, it is booming like hell.

That is why, I will never condemn any new development as there are always pros and cons to it. It may fail or it may succeed but the most important thing is to respect others decision.

If these bashers are really so knowledgeable in property investment, they've become Lee Kah Sing long time ago already

Go puchong for food, massage & papaya garden 👏🏻😁

Key word is..... "BUY BUY BUY"!!! 😁

KLCC area in general jobs are paying more 😁

The road damn silky smooth.

BSP stands for?

Yup.. Scarlet owners mostly are for own stay.. Who in the right mind will rent out a house which cost RMm700k to 900k?

Nope.. Scarlet units are individual title.

Most buy for own stay ma..

I believe Scarlet has the lowest density among all development phases in Bandar Rimbayu.

Yup. Your definition is correct. Same goes for condominiums. Parklane OUG for example, total of 4,225 units of service apartments is considered high density.

You have a point there too.

it is up to them base on their investment appetite. I personally feel that the return yield will not be much.

Totally agree with you. Landed properties in general have low rental yield. Coupled with the fact that rimbayu high selling prices, profit from flipping won't be much.

To be honest, if want to buy & flip, must get property below RM500k.

Above that, it will be very difficult to flip already as majority of Malaysians purchasing power ain't that great for properties above RM700k.

So far never heard of land sinking issue in Phase 4 Scarlet.
