from experience, UOA tends to block off bumi units.....

you guys need to find out if the sales chart has bumi units blocked off or not.

Also 50% sold is misleading...it should be 50% booked.....unless you pretty sure that all the 50% so called sold have signed SPA.

Parklane i hear very chap the tenants there...

Haiz...these days which project is not over thousand units de..
Even high end like sky suites and sentral suites also thousand lioa..

You are right....

Exclude the booming period..we talk about normal and organic growth...landed is better bet amongst all (exclude shoplots commercial and warehouse/factories lots and bare land) but location plays a more important role.

In malaysia almost all times rental cant cover for your investment doesnt matter if landed or highrise forget about ltv 90 or ltv60....your cash deposit got cost too. Many people just look at what positive cash flow to syiok sendiri.

Even highrise...there are many types. Some do suffer lower blow than othera. Right now the champion is small little sofo or sovo....bcos of low entry cost but furnishing to resi will need large capital investment also.

Landed lagi tak ada jalan...imagine how much capital u need to pf or ff a landed for rent....

End of day...i see buying properties for investment under normal period is a form of force saving and a bit of joy when see the product grows, maybe pick up some deferred payment at later dates....nothing more than this.

In properties u r not always win. Sometimes breakeven sometimes lose.....its part and parcel of life.

This even applies to so callled mat sui guru.....they also making lose as well...but when pomoting their skills they will only talk about their way sui see....ignored those that barely made or lose making venture.

Looks like we hijacked anorher thread to talk syiok sendiri stuff...keke

I had bought two properties from uoa before.....but they were much lower density.

There wont be any 'wow' elements when u collected key and visit for 1st time....but their built quality was decent, including carpark area and sanitaryware. I dun have much to add on to my defect list also.

But uoa is known to sell their properties at premium....

However i have yet to visit or read reports of their more recent higher density projects such as southview and southbank. Also their projects facades are mostly like coming out from the same mould......

Talk about interior design and show unit....uoa usually only use one ID firm and this particular firm doesnt do residential units....only commercial.

50k for reno is bearly enuf for fully furnish a unit with 3beds.

He/She wants show units furnishing and design ID leh.......not 3suku furnishing.

UOA I think still using the same o same o ID firm for their show units....I feel its dated already........definitely wont draw to the ID IF buy their latest offering.....

I more drawn to the following show units design ID
Hampton
Sentral Suites

a bit rich, but acceptable. some new and refreshing idea especially the bedroom. Sentral Suites color combo a bit too rich for me.

BBCC lurentia show unit
Very subdue...much like Japanese style meets Scandi. my type.

Why nobody talks about maxim citilight after vped?

No praise or complaint on their workmanship and common facilities?

Everybody wants mall...

But malls in klang valley are playing the survivor of the fittest......

Auctions are rare case....cant use auction as standardised scenario.

I would say...heard from investors from both places.... (if not most places)....prices are really depressed now.....

I know some ppl sell at cost or wanting to sell at cost at both sentul n cyber....

If want to hold 10yrs or not.....no one has crytal ball lah..

Msybe sentul can sell for 1000psf then....but msybe rm vs usd is 10 to 1 then alresdy

Got shoplots sure commercial title lioa lah...no beed to argue.

Even without shoplots also can be commercial title...just look at the density....

If over 100 units per acre...surely commercial lioa....eg. hampton residences....

Condo under resi title usually below 100units per acre...usually i think 60units per acre nia.

Not promote...
Cant think of any commercial titled resi without shoppes on ground floor......

They planned to do hotel biz on one block. The other block sell as residential.

Sorry cross fire here.

Am was not talking abt uoa sentul village.

Uoa itself cant widening the road...its a public road.

Sch h is just for resi purposes...

Utility wise still follow commercial unless applied for change....but only electrity. Water rate remains as commercial so does assessment.

Sentul cant match those chic restaurants and outlets in damansara and ttdi loh...

But what dsara n ttdi dont have is hidden treasure of basis good food in sentul.

Like most good food...just look out for stall under a big tree...haha

Seriously am not sek san....dunno name and location.

Perhaps other sek san csn point u the right stalls...

Babi nasi lemak
A reputable chinese restaurant

Just two out of my head atm.

If holding cash is depreciating...
Even when u hold property if currency keeps on depreciating...what good is the property?

I beg to differ

Last couples of yrs ..prooerty prices hardly moved beyond 5% p.a. n rental yields hardly can achieved over 5%.

Therefore holding cash is not a bad idea after all....be it in fixed deposit or other bonds such as asn.

Of course assume tbat u have real cash on hand lah
If u dun hv cash...then talk abt property also pointless.

These days most of rental properties (new)....landlord gives big ang poa for tenant to stay de
