Lol are you serious? Please don't give wrong advise. Old 23 years old BK5 semi d also you cannot afford (972k 3rd reauction for BK5 semi d LELONG). Please don't give wrong info.

If you have a budget of 800k, you can look in BK2, BK3, BK4 or BK5 (old houses). You may be able to nail one at around 700k and then spend the remaining into renovation. But do take note that those are not guarded and gated. G&G, cheapest you can find is BK9 Warna - but you will be in front of low cost apartment. You may also look at BK7 but with your budget, I think you will end up with a T junction unit

Currently there is an auction unit at Kinrara Residence (going at 810k, but the thing is, the hearing was postponed to 28th May for the defendants so you will know whether will have reauction or not).

Unfortunately only 3 auction units in Kinrara currently (1 is semi d - owner paid off the income tax he owed, 1 is 2.5 storey Kinrara Residence, hearing 28th May, the other one BK9 Senja 2.5 storey for market price).

Don't count on negotiating with owners in BK5C, D, E, BK6E, and agents in Kinrara are exceptionally good in scamming. Try having a feel at BK first. I have stayed in my apartment in BK9 for 3 years before I decided to buy a landed here.

Actually BK5C Sentosa, Permai, BK5 Desiran, BK6E Melody and BK9 Spektra are already touching 10 years as of next year 2020. Kinrara Residence built in 2013 is also untouchable cause of the price. But in any case, yes you are right, 1.2-1.5m. Even for a house facing T junction in Desiran is going for 1.08m. TS don’t have much choice left. For a new house, I suggest to look at Puchong South/Putra Prima.

1.1m you have a lot of options.. as mentioned earlier, the newer houses in BK5 and BK6 will touch 10 years soon.

In these 2 locations, I prefer Desiran as it is on top of the hill, but entrance a bit sucky, cause the 2 way road got people like to do side parking. There are 4 main types in Desiran, 24x70 Type A1, A2, B1, and B2. 1 and 2 meaning maid room in front/back location and A and B meaning long porch or short porch. Long porch have larger buildup but going at 1.2m. You will have extra land at the back that doesn’t belong to you and you can use cause it is sloped land.

BK6E has a land area of 26x65 (1m+) and 30x70 (1.2m+) but not many people would like it cause it’s short and it’s quite open. Depending on your taste. Beware of even number houses cause their back is facing Ayer Itam forest and residents there have complaints about monkey problems.

BK8 Irama, Sapphire, and Emerald and BK5C Sentosa are typical 22x75 but with buildup around 2300. Price should be around 1.1m or less after you nego.

All in all, trust your instincts and don’t be afraid to walk away from a house that you may like cause Kinrara agents are snobs and keep insisting that owners do not accept the price. If need be, go straight to the owner after the viewing session to cut off agent.

Anything in particular you need to know? What's your budget, what location you are looking at in particular?

Good or convenient depends on you. Are you working nearby? That should answer your question.

bk as a whole is predominantly freehold landed properties smacked right in between BJ catalysts and the established satellite township of bandar puchong.. not too old like oug, not too messy like puchong, not leasehold like sri petaling, just about all the right ingredients for the pickings..

bk5 in particular, is riding on the recent 're'vibrancy of kinrara niaga (the giant) commercial area with 8 & 10 kinrara highrise & lrt station.. i&p ex-show gallery has been bought over enbloc, while many corner lots being converted to street hawkers center, and when public bank is also there, you know the area is set abuzz, traffic wise..

very ok for own stay, few sjk & sjkc around.. waiting for more connectivity to be opened up behind.. for investment, depends on your returns expectations, but risk is relatively lower, means can find takers at mid-point, won't sink much.. m2c..

bro emyght. what are new connectivity opening? any news on retails openingat 10kinrara?

cause i consider a house in bk5 around 610k. this is near to midvalley which where i work on and not that crazy expensive plus freehold. Just worry on the safety the is it convenient for normal daily life

I'm sorry BK5 with 610k budget? I guess you are looking at the apartment in 8 Kinrara then, am I right? The accessibility actually is not too bad. You have easy access to LRT (BK5 station), Maybank, and Anytime Fitness. It is just about 5 mins walk away. You have Giant also within walking distance and the shophouses (food courts etc) which you would have to walk a bit further (10 mins or more). However, I have to warn you that since you are working in Midvalley, the road towards OKR AND OKR itself is very very jammed. You have to leave your apartment at around 6.30am/7am depending on your start time because the traffic will get VERY HEAVY at 7.30am onwards from Jalan Puchong to OKR. To get to the intersection, most likely you will need to make a huge turn around the shophouses and you will probably have to wait at the traffic light for a long time to go into BK2 road.

Midvalley consider near ?

If Midvalley, I'd rather be staying somewhere around OKR, OUG, Tmn Desa, Happy Garden, Sri Petaling, Pantai. The problem I see currently with BK5 is the access from BJ highway.

whats building up at this piece of land? the last time passed by still being fenced up.

As a matter of fact, BJ highway is not going to be a problem as he will not be using this road most likely. Waze/Maps will direct most likely to go through OKR. I know this cause I worked in KL Sentral. But in any case, if he wakes up early, should not be a problem. From MV to BK5, it would take around 1 hour plus too cause OKR is really long. The only plus point I would see in owning an apartment in Kinrara is the accessibility.

some info on township planning for bk if of any use. seem like many land parcel for school but not yet built. the road cutting through the forest to the west to taman wawasan has been on the plan for ages. but no sign of really happening.

I asked the Pejabat Tanah, no plans have been sent/set there yet but the one on the lower side, isn't it low cost apartment? Pangsapuri Enggang.

cause i consider a house in bk5 around 610k. this is near to midvalley which where i work on and not that crazy expensive plus freehold. Just worry on the safety the is it convenient for normal daily life

from the map, supposed to be schools, residential and commercial. could be a small pocket of landed with some shops. for the schools, probably wont be so fast to be built.

1hr one way....sweat!!!!

Supposedly, yes, the one below the road is Pangsapuri Enggang. I hope it's not going to be another layer of low cost apartments cause it will for sure bring down the value of Qaseh. In any case, the plans can change at anytime so we cannot count on it. For one, it's surely not going to be another religious plot of land cause it will be built closeby Kinrara Residence/Damai Utama
Yeah unfortunately. That's why I wonder, why not go for Cheras? I think 9 Mile is somewhat close to MV right? trust4you

ye, buy cheras always never lose out      now 9 mile developing like piece of hot cake bullet. makhotha cheras will eventually be quiet down after e9 completion

bk 5 is all landed....610k for sure cannot get...
apartment maybe can

Think he is going for 8 Kinrara apartments.

bk 5 is all landed....610k for sure cannot get...

Not sure about the distance from MidValley. 610k budget got suggestion?

Think he is going for 8 Kinrara apartments.

Basic old 20 x 70 double storey house 610k cannot get?

How much for 8 kinrara apartments?

Not sure about the distance from MidValley. 610k budget got suggestion?

Any body is familiar with BK5?

Is it good to stay/convenient in bk5?

Now looking for house at that area

Basic old 20 x 70 double storey house 610k cannot get?

nope...this price maybe 5 years back can get...
now don't think so.

you can go there drive around and call up the agent to ask the price.
but bk5 really not many is selling. i surprise also.

bk5 to me very convenient. with new shops popping up in new shoplots area, now even more convenient for day to day eating and groceries. access also good. for weekend shopping or outing, ioi mall, ioi boulevard and sunway pyramid are less than 10 mints away. in future pavillion 2 and rio city also should be about 10 mints or less away. hospital and schools are also nearby.

Yeah this is actually quite important for some residents, namely Damai Utama. I was going to attach this but I kept forgetting. There is a mosque that will be placed in Kinrara Residence (if you look closely at the Balai Polis - left road). This might depreciate the value a bit there. And there is quite vast lands that are still available in Bandar Kinrara. Thanks for this attachment

so the market price for landed at BK5 is above 800k? As i try to browse iproperty can see some listings below 700k, wonder is it a real deal.
I am new to BK area, also looking for landed house for own stay.

Bro, is there mosque planned near Kinrara Residence? I couldnt see it in the map.

Those below 700K most likely are 20X70 type and also can be nearer to the monsoon drainage or the BK5 mosque.

Think he is going for 8 Kinrara apartments.

you looking for new house or sub sale?
BK5 very convenient.....

BK5 very convenient.....

yes . initially thought 610k can find old subsale house then reno abit. but seem impossible

yes . initially thought 610k can find old subsale house then reno abit. but seem impossible

610k can't buy a landed property there... U only can buy those 2nd hand without Reno done

i have stayed in both cheras (tmn segar side) and kinrara area for more than 10 years each.. i will personally root for kinrara, the golf side, not the old jalan puchong side.. now or and esp considering future developments.. maybe explore high-rise with lower density if you hv budget constraints.. good luck..

610K, You can try Bdr Puchong Jaya subsale - tempua 18X65 and Kasawari 20X65 but slightly smaller house and also nearer to amenities compared with BK.

actually im ok without reno cause previous reno might not suite for me . but seem all is over my budget haha

with this amount... maybe you can try to search in BK 2 or 3.

actually bk 3 also not cheap but bk2 is too many school in side

Agree... Bk 3 double storey isn't cheap though but how about single storey?

now check other place 1st else just find a single storey hahaha no choice

If your work place is at MV, ideally you should buy BK2 or BK3 area, nearer to Jln Puchong compare to BK5.
You can also use the Taman UOG route to go to OKR.  I can reach MV from BK5 in 30 to 40 min (depart at 7.15 am) BK 2/3 should be faster.
Bandar Kinrara is a very nice place for living. LRT, SRJKC, Giant, POS, Maybank, PBB, Serdang PDRM head quarter, shops, all within minutes. Last but not least, BK is one of the rare township where you can live next to a virgin tropical rain forest right within the city centre.

Yes area. Bk5 is because the road inside is more wider than bk2.and bk2 seem very jam when school day. but just my budget is not match only lol.

Thanks

As a matter of fact, here is my insights, with that budget, you can opt to stay in Jalan Tempua or the Bandar Puchong Jaya side but it will be a very tough mission every morning for you to go out from Puchong Jaya to go to the traffic light to merge to Jalan Puchong (aka you have to go towards the right side of the road and you are coming out from the left).

You can opt for BK2/BK3/BK4 which like you said, narrow roads and schools around the area etc. But consider this, people from BK5/6/8/9 also have to pass by BK2 through the school along Jalan Kem Kinrara. To top it off, your BK5 wide road will also be narrower with the school there (opposite of the shop houses across the road). So you have to go through 2 schools. You can contact a few agents to look at the house locations. Maybe you can check and see if the location is close to the school.

610k cannot get you anything in BK5 for landed subsale, sorry to say, unless you get lucky and there is a very desperate owner/lelong, which so far, only 2 from Kinrara Residence and 2 from Bandar Kinrara, all which are above your budget by a lot.

have you consider buying a condo?

most of kinrara area properties are leasehold, no?

TS can consider Jalan Merak on BPJ. 610k top up to 650-670k should be able to get you a double-storey landed with F&G

Jalan Merak is good 20*75 bout 650  should be ok. Thanks

Basic old 20 x 70 double storey house 610k cannot get?

Hey guys, any BK4/5 owners here mind to share how’s the road traffic conditions to KL during busy hour(like 7-9am) before mco period? Is it super congested or moderate? Roughly how long you need to reach Seremban highway? 

I’m interested at one of the unit here but I would like to understand how’s the traffic before covid outbreak first.

Many thanks!
