You may have to show the architecture drawings and the building foot prints dimensions. this may affect the per sqft price.

Hello there. I just did my house renovation with a malay guy named lufties [company kulit tangan trading (opened cheque to this co)]
0176068749
Highly recommended.
Details of reno,
Tearing down of entire 2 story house in PJ 22 X 75- RM 12,000. Rebuilding of entire building 4 rooms 3 bathroom- RM 92,000 Wiring, grill and gates- RM 28,000. Lights and fans-RM 5200 Majlis licensing-Rm 2800
All raw material are supplied by him and his workmanship is good.
His materials are dirt cheap because they own a factory manufacturing these items.
If he ask who reco say it is Isaac.

PJ very famous with mob, break in, fierce dog neck bite to death and etc. u see?

leasehold why not? in pj seems not that expensive to renew lease. if you get a nice unit for example in section 14 pj and renew lease to 99 years then renovate nicely should be comfortable for living or sell a few years later for profit read this: http://www.starproperty.my/index.php/artic...old-properties/

Hi all,
It is now 2023, I am wondering if anyone can share and update on the cost of rebuilding a double storey terrace or corner lot in PJ area?
I am assuming that post covid there must be some impact on material cost. Probably even service charges...
