Hello all,

Want to ask all sifus here - is selling a condo unit more difficult nowadays?

I ask this because a family member wants to sell a nice, sizeable unit in a low density condo in Kuchai Lama/Happy Garden area and it's been relatively quiet (few calls but nothing serious enough). At first he wants to try without an agent. Now, even with agents, it's still rather slow.

Any tips about this? Just want to learn more about what's going on in the market so I can help out. I understand that there are a lot of new developments around but these are all super high density. Perhaps some will prefer lower density ones because it is quieter. Anyway, I'm always open to learning new stuff and the various topics here are very informative.

Thanks all.

Am not sifu just like to 8kua here....

I just put my apartment for sale and less than 2 weeks it got sold for the price i asked.
Maybe it was just my lucky break, or maybe there is real demand where i bougjht....i dunno.

Few things here
1. Low density.....whatever you think its the selling point of your property your subsale market might not think its the selling point.

2. Sell on own later appointing agent.....can see yr relative is either not too keen to sell or too kiamsiap to pay commission. I this is a big no no especially now the property boom is truly over.
Also how many agents they appointing? 1 2 or 50???? You need to engage as many as possible even up to 50 bcos 95% of them will not be active enough to push yr unit.

3. Buying subsale doesnt have to pay 10% and etc wan...if you know how to bend the rules...i wouldnt want to elaborate further here.....so to say new property with all the freebies eat up subsale market is simply not true. People that are buying subsale is unlikely to consider brand new from developers.

Good points. Really appreciate your perspective on this.

You're very lucky to sell your unit in less than 2 weeks.

Regarding the appointment of agents, you made a valid point about getting as many agents as possible to push the unit. I will inform him about this. Do you have any recommended agents? If yes, care to PM the details? Would definitely appreciate it.

Regarding your third point, maybe you can elaborate via PM if you are okay about it? I'm rather naive when it comes to these things.

Thanks again for your thoughts.

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....

1.6Mil terrace basic condition in bangsar requires alot of renovations or refurbishment. I dont think it's worth it. I was considering the area but I dont think its fully gated n guarded. Hence its not my choice. I bought an end lot terrace instead, brand new with fully gated n guarded in a nice serene environment with similar price. More countryside. Near to the city as well.

How does 'more countryside, near to city as well" work????

If its near to city it wont be classified as countryside.

Why not? Maybe do your homework first before taunting?

The ones that are leasehold are Bangsar Permai, Bangsar Indah and there is another one as well can’t recall the name now.

There is also the Zehn that is leasehold but average cost per unit >RM1m.

Those aren’t bad places to live though as most of them are better maintained than the older freehold ones.

Since you are nearing retirement am guessing you must be nearing 60? Land title issue would be your children and grandchildren problems to deal with.

Bangsar hillpark also leasehold.

4-5% for residential still possible. Just need to find.

Depends on how much u dumped into renovating the unit....

Even if you can achieve 4 to 5% for 1 year, it doesnt guarantee for following years.
