Aiyo.. the answer is very obvious...

My answer:3rd house

LANDED STRATA is a big nono..

STRATA CONS
-Unnecessarily expensive..
-Reno n extension restrictions (Can easily get lawsuit if breach reno guidelines set)
-High maintenance fees-sunk cost
-No gate (pets can run out easily). Most ppl chose landed because they have pets
-No gate means no privacy. Anyone can go knocking on your door
-Binded by DMC for life
-Malaysians prefer gate
-any many more.. lazy to type..
-So in a nutshell strata landed is not entirely yours. Buy so expensive but being controlled, confined by the management committee.

Hmmm...Sounds like pj this location...

There are a number of GnG houses which comes with their own gate. Just have to do some research to find them. Sierra Seputeh is one such example of GnG houses having their own gate.

Ya lo..  strata very the mafan....

DMC, house rules, maintenance fees, sunk cost. Dont always use the facilities also have to pay, big limitations..

Ive seen strata landed, one owner neighbour do extensive renovation, cover the fenshui. next door Neighbour complaint, mgmt take action. The faulty one kena sue and then go to court. Court ask the faulty one to tear down their reno.
Alot of ppl buy landed strata with the notion its the same as ind title, but they are binded by DMC.

If let's say the JMB/DMC of one GnG allows renovation of a house, regardless if its a Semi-D, terrace or bungalow, would the neighbour(s) complain if the renovation works is within your house compound and the agreed working hours?

The only time they'll complain is if the renovation works affects them directly, and this also applies to the individual titled houses.

As for that fengshui neighbour, I sure wouldn't want to live next door to him/her if they are so fussy about the surroundings, regardless if its in a GnG or an individual titled home.
