Wah... good!

Asking is different from actual transacted ... if u look at actual transacted ... prices did not drop much for subsale... dun listen to much to agent ya.. they want to make u think you r getting cheap things now

You need to appoint agents that specilised in that condo or kuchai area...not any dog dick and hairy.

Dun worry just list down price of xxxk and say negotiable. Usually experience buyers will know how to deal w yr relative....its all up to the buyer that make the offer and yr relative to accept it or not.


Last thing...brickz info are mostly corruptes due to this practice....

My brother-in-law lives in Taman Desa (double storey link) and he tells me that properties there used to go for rm1.2m-rm1.3m but have dropped to just over the million mark (basic unit) recently. Renovated ones fetch a bit more.

Few foresaw current soft market yet most foresee strong up pick.

Don’t know about others.

But I have gotten out of the property industry since 2014 right before the decline. I had to change fast.

The good times of achieving 5 sales a month were over and only the top win.

Edit: the general consensus, and market sentiment is that it’s stagnant and will go down. Lagged demand so to speak will pour in. If that doesn’t happen it’ll happen after the next recession.

i'm not expert in investment, i buy condo for ownstay, but i'm eyeing on sri petaling, puchong, bukit jalil and oug for a while and i've been staying in serdang for more than 10 years already

landed in kuchai lama, OUG, puchong and sri petaling is a gem, especially OUG and sri petaling, where it sandwiched between PJ and KL, this is why these areas you see those shoplot and condo is quite run down compare to damansara/mont kiara but those place still jam and 'ong' and many peoples still choose to stay here, both old and younger generation

new launch condo in kuchai and sri petaling is selling at average 600-650psf, i doubt there will be new landed in this area already

U call ur name Sydney everybody can guess

how come those freehold landed in Bandar Utama PJ still so pricey..
observed for 2 years ++ price still going up very slowly... aduhh

OKR / Kuchai / OUG areas are very prime areas these days. Same goes for Taman Desa and most other housing estates between Mid Valley and the junction to Jalan Templer. Lack of LRT connectivity did not put a single dent on the demand.

I had a single storey corner lot in that area up until I moved out of it earlier this year and put it on the market. It had a 1.5 storey extension, 9ft tall fence, double lot land and modernised using modern British standards. It sold after 2 months of being on the market at very near the asking price, discounted by a cashback to the buyer for the MOT and they took a full loan. They bought it because they had 2 big dogs and the bloke enjoyed his gardening.

As for condos, earlier this year I decided to sell off all properties I owned that was more than 10 years old, not in an expatriate neighbourhood or in a neighbourhood that we no longer wanted to invest in. 7 units of 3 bedroom 1200-1900sf condos. When I mentioned to the tenants that I was selling it, 3 offered to buy it off me, I told them to make an offer and accepted. 2 were purchased by investors within 2 months. Now only 1 remains unsold though I do have a booking on it, just no SPA yet.

Landed houses, it depends. Some can take forever to sell even in prime areas. However 4-8 months is considered fairly normal in today's economic climate.


Those are some really ancient condos you are looking into.

I hope you are not that Aussie that came by to my former unit and tried to lowball me

Older Bangsar condos have been on the decline as many of them are tired old buildings and in need of major repairs, also many have sinking funds that are broke. Values have mostly flat lined but difficult to get any real bargains. Most that own them have strong holding power.

Landed houses, their values have mostly been stagnant. RM1.6m for a terrace? You could have bought one for that type of money over the last 3 years though you would be looking into RM400k to fix it. Anything in nicer condition you would need to pay closer to RM2m for it.

Yes - a lot of Bangsar condos are quite old now. I like Sri Wangsaria but that block is tightly held and sellers are unwilling to drop much. You can only get bargains from sellers who are desperate to sell and it usually is because they are migrating. The rentals are miserable though in Bangsar - if you spend rm1mil to buy, you will probably get around rm3k/mth rental at best (gross) fully-furnished. When you compare that with Tiffani in MK, a 1mil condo there will roughly gross you about rm5k/mth. This makes me more inclined to buy in MK and the 2 buildings i like is Kiaraville and Tiffani (as i might rent it out if my plans to retire in KL doesn't work out).
