I'm interested to buy a property at subang jaya selangor area as investment/to rent out/future maybe move in stay...here is my idea:

- I'm from outstation but interested to own a property in kl. Choose subang jaya because it's lower cost as kl area too expensive for a small space. I don't mind out of city as I prefer bigger space home and I think subang jaya is not bad...near airport...got sunward pyramid mall...lrt mrt convenient ...etc...

I aim apartment and 5 storey the most....got facilities and security guard....I'm aim to settle off the house loan ASAP eg 5-10yrs...maybe will eventually move in and settled down there...

I'm bored staying at one place my whole life so I see this as a staycation or start new life here in future...kl is more fun and interesting to me....

1.anyone can share your story of buying property in kl even you are frm outstation?

2. People from outstation how do you settle down and readjust in kl life?

3. What is the pros and cons of living in subang jaya or selangor area? The living standard, cost, convenience, difficulties...The majority of race...can expect more Chinese population? Not to be racist here...just trying to understand and expectations of social circle....etc

I know is lengthy here but I have no idea at all....

Thanks...

HI, i live in USJ Subang Jaya for 20 years plus. All i can say is, there are pros and cons.
Pros:
USJ has accessabilities such as KESAS, ELITE, LDP, FEDERAL, NKVE and it is a strategic location as there is also Public Transportation (LRT/MRT) here. It is the Kelana Jaya Line, which means you can just go to strategic places in K.L such as KLCC or KL Sentral without any hassel with the traffic. Facilities here is great to as we have "Taipan". In Taipan, there are banks, mini markets, restaurants etc. Nearby Hypermarket here is Giant, Mydin and for Shopping Malls, we have Summit, Subang Parade, Empire etc. Pertaining to races, not really, depends on area.

Cons:
It is just too congested, traffic jams.

For me, that's all. If anyone have something to add, you guys are welcome to help him.

I'm interested  to buy a property at subang jaya  selangor  area as investment/to rent out/future maybe move in stay...here is my idea:

- I'm from outstation but interested  to own a property in kl. Choose subang jaya because  it's lower cost as kl  area too expensive  for a small space. I don't mind out of city as I prefer bigger space home and I think subang  jaya  is not bad...near airport...got sunward pyramid mall...lrt  mrt  convenient ...etc...

*Subang Jaya is a good place to stay, if you don't mind the sometimes bad traffic congestion but overall, a nice place to stay. It's not exactly near the airport (note: old airport), it takes close to 30 - 45 minutes drive (depending on which part of Subang Jaya you are coming from.

*don't be fooled though, property prices in Subang Jaya isn't that "cheap" as well, probably the saving grace is that the living costs in Subang Jaya is still deemed "affordable".


I aim apartment and 5 storey  the most....got facilities  and security  guard....I'm aim to settle off the house loan ASAP eg  5-10yrs...maybe will eventually  move in and settled  down there...

I'm bored staying at one place my whole life so I see this  as a staycation  or start new life here in future...kl  is more fun and interesting  to me....

*as far as I know, most of the 5 storeys apartment in Subang Jaya are already very old and most of them are not very properly maintained, (Pangsapuri Jati 1, Goodyear courts; just to name a few)

*my advice, if you don't plan to settle down in Subang Jaya then don't invest there because Subang Jaya is already filled with residential projects and with so many upcoming projects, you will definitely find a difficult time trying to sell it at a good price, what more if it is an old and poorly maintained development.


3. What is the pros and cons of living in subang jaya  or selangor area? The living standard, cost, convenience, difficulties...The majority of race...can expect more Chinese population? Not to be racist here...just trying to understand  and expectations of social circle....etc

*I have resided in Klang, Subang Jaya and now Puchong (long enough) to be able to give you a rough idea the lifestyle there and the costs itself.

*Subang Jaya is mostly densed with Chinese and Malay, Indians are the minority. Costs of living is affordable whereby you can still eat a proper meal for one at below RM7.00.

*Puchong is not far away from Subang Jaya but the demographics are populated with Indians and then seconded with Chinese.

I know is lengthy here but I have no idea at all....

Thanks...

Just wondering if this is still a good place for investment? Especially in subsale serviced apartments? Any other pros and cons for subang jaya area? If SJ is not a good location for investment, which location near to SJ would you recommend to look around?
