i was refering to tuas link la being far and expensive (toll).
u ask me, none, don't really like johor. rather buy in kl or penang.
if for own stay and safe buy, semi d in bukit indah. i would avoid high rise. too many supply, can't see exit strategy.
so there in lies the problem. buy house is much safer, but if u buying to park your money, is fine - but prepare for holding long term and with poor rental.
if u talking about best place to live in jb, then i alrd mentioned - bukit indah, perling, austin, molek sutera utama and so on. established areas.
avoid permas jaya side or more eastern side. environment no good. go ask local jb pipu they can tell u.
btw i know u bought HH right. it's good. need time to mature. now population sparse, but environment good.
anyway good luck...
incorrect advise.
As someone who owns prop in JB and travel frequently to JB, Permas Jaya is a very good location, and better than almost all of the locations you mentioned..
it's one of the easiest estate to link to EDL, pelangi, Midvalley, Ikea Tebrau, & downtown JB with only 5-10 minutes drive to those locations and only need to travel less than 8 minutes on the EDL highway to woodlands checkpoint.. Plus, Midvalley southkey is just opposite you so you have a world class shopping mall and the best mall in JB at the moment right at your door-step.
Plus, it has the only exclusive under construction, landed free-hold, & Gated-community property right next to the sea-side which is nearby to the city. There is no more landed property this close to the city in development, or even planned for the next 20 years anymore..
The development is called Tropicana Danga Cove (http://www.tropicanadangacove.com.my) Prices start from a very affordable RM580,000 for 2-storey 1700 sqft, 4 bd-room, & 4 bathroom. Developer is Tropicana aswell. not only is it exclusive, it is at bargain prices right now.. with developer discount and offers, I can see you only paying 550-600k for a landed unit..
nowhere in KL, Penang or JB will you get such good deal. If you can afford it, it is a BARGAIN.
Think about it also, this sort of landed property is so similar to the landed prop being developed in Punggol Singapore because it is right next to the sea, and those Punggol property cost S$3 to 5million!! seriously, you are getting a bargain..
All other landed property, like Eco-world, Setia SP in bukit indah, bandar dato-onn, setia park, etc are too far located from the border, with at least 20-30minute WITHOUT traffic.. and cost even more than Tropicana Danga Cove!
Aside from that, there is the newly launched senibong cove in permas jaya too. Those are a million dollar, waterfront living semi-d luxury property. That I think no doubt, will have a few listed for lelong as the owners may not be able to afford it and rentals dont justify such a big property..
As for pollution, you are wrong again. The wind blows south east, which blows the factory pollution from Pasir Gudang towards Singapore. You can research this yourself but I have not seen any issue with the air quality in the Permas area.
Permas Jaya is a mature estate with lots of shopping, offices, a 4-star Renaissance Hotel, lots of popular night food spots with a strong korean and japanese presence, as there are expats working in O & G in 40mins drive to pengerang. It is a clean town, relatively safe, easily accessible, & strategically located township in JB. It is close to the jb city, midvalley southkey, singapore and also the most ideal township for those working pasir gudang and pengerang.
Lots of rental potential in Permas.
If comparing to KL, Permas Jaya is like SS2/taman Sea.
