The market is indeed soft for secondary market real estate. Does not matter which condo it is but unless you are willing to sell it cheap then be prepared to hold on to it.

Am in the same boat. Have a unit at Desa Parkcity that's been on the market for 3 years. Had enquiries the first 2 months then no calls other than a bunch of useless agents. This year had 2 enquiries and 1 booking fee but it came to nothing.

The other condo I have on the market is a unit at Mont Kiara. Been on the market for 18 months. Get 2-3 enquiries each month but not had any booking fees on it.

Not that different when it comes to landed houses whether strata or individual titled.

Hmm... Disappointing news about the length of time it takes to sell a property. My family member mentioned about the onslaught of calls from agents, promising ready buyers etc. It's rather annoying because it doesn't lead to anything serious.

He did mention that landed houses in prime areas still sell well and relatively quicker than condo units.

Do you have any regrets about owning a condo unit?

Agent with ready buyers? I am always doubtful of such claims.

Landed houses in prime areas will sell quickly if it is priced to sell, the same way a condo will sell quickly too if it is priced for a quick sale.

No regrets buying the condos as at the time of purchasing the 1st one I could not afford any landed houses in the area and any landed houses that were in the budget were either too small, too far or needed too much renovations which I was not in a position to do. The 2nd condo is in an area where 90% of real estate are condos and the 10% of landed real estate were 7 figures and some are now touching 8 figures.

Just have to be patient.

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.
