Would you prefer to buy a landed property or condominium?
State your preference and reasons?

Depends on budget la I guess...

Landed
- don't have to pay monthly maintenance to MC.

Condo or service residence.... Less.pest, less noise, less cleanup of the house......

Most service residences has parks pools gym etc.....which to me is all in one ...matter of taking the lift to the desired floor


Most importantly...security is there ....so there is some peace of mind as well

Landed because I like bigger space and no need to wait lift.

Yes. It is like renting own house and the rental is increasing from time to time. You still have to pay AssessmenFee, right? t

problem is when the lift breaks down and you live in the highest floor.

This statement doesn’t apply if u stay in a strata landed property though

its depends....if you want closure to food and walking to super...sure is high rise. If you want big land big space...landed...

indeed, nowadays landed also guarded so also need to pay maintenance..

I would prefer landed if i can afford to buy at the location that i wanted.

yup - all budget dependent

either:

1) near but expensive for new landed
2) cheaper but further for new landed
3) near but small for highrise
4) far but cheap for highrise

unless you for for subsale .... or perhaps lelong unit?

all budget dependent & the location...

Landed with Individual Title, best if you're not facing another house with more some public land to place your cars and maybe do some small gardening

U meam end lot or corner with cul de sac design??

I ll pick strata landed, more secure feelings than indvidual title and more controlled environment... Less disturbance than highrise..

never ending question

Not really, the best imo are intermediate house which have "free" land like those facing the secondary street (not primary where mainly cars drive by). Usually found at the edge of a housing area, the residence would utilize the "perimeter green belt" for their own horticulture activities or just for more parking areas for themselves instead of parking in front of the gate.

But of course not all green belt are the same, some developers are quite generous, and some are non-usable and are known to be just "passive green"

Living : Standard individual title landed house in a gated & guarded environment.

Investment : Individual titled freehold landed house, 1 storey terrace, 2 storey terrace 22x75, 2 storey semi-d are my favored ones.

They hold their value the best and even in the current downturn you can't find one that is a bargain to buy.

Before buy, rent a condo and then rent a landed property and see whether this fit your lifestyle & requirement before making bigger investment. Don’t worry about price pickup as current market sentiment is very weak & diving further. But if your decision is for rental profit then your selection criteria will be different than above mentioned suggestion.

freehold landed, gng with dmc for obvious reason

prefer rent..
then you got the option to choose landed / condo every year

landed, at least end lot with min 10ft land

not a big fan of intermediate.

I need my windows hehe

Without a budget, this argument is moot.

Landed. My car is just beside me. 2 min later, I can start driving aldy.

landed property freehold

This Landed should be individual title, still needs to pay security fees

landed freehold with DMC.GnG for obvious reason

layan je la bro.

Condo,

1. no need to worry about rat running on your root top n infected with lung disease after inhaled their feces.

2. More secure, landed tend to get rob more easily, if no gate n guard security. So you still need to paid maintenance fee also.

3. The condo I mean are those high end, low residents and quite (peace of mind). not the one flat with 20, 30 resident each floors, and auntie, uncle morning morning shout like nobody business.

Lol. U sure? Check again.

Kampung pekan place yes. In KV all got la

this topic is open ended question, landed can be anywhere in the world, not just malaysia gua,lol

Condo, usually face those noise pollution especially near Highway or MRT

Me too. Strata landed is the best. Just pay lar. Haha.

P/S: As long as the JMB in charge are not conmen in action.

Many don't realize many expenses e.g landscaping, street lights, road maintenance, etc included in assessment rates under local council are paid by landed strata owners, and is not cheap.

I always like landed for its ease of parking, easy access out and into the house without the need of waiting/ taking lifts

landed single storey, GnG, same reasons as @em_on

condo all the way, especially those near to eatery/mall/easy road access/fetch high rental yield punya.. buy buy buy

Landed. No need suffer noisy pollution from kalju fighting ultraman upstairs

Question, if the landed house is strata where landscaping, street lights, road maintenance, pembuangan sampah are all under JMB, meaning that...

Are the owners not going to be billed by Majlis Perbandaran (MBPJ / DBKL / MPS / MPSJ)? Or still need to pay something to local council? Thank you for the answer.

Edit: Assessment rate / cukai pintu, I mean. Of course cukai tanah we still need to pay.

most of the landed freehold or leasehold with individual title already have guard in place now adays

Landed always. doesnt matter fhold, lhold, strata or indi.
dun wanna stay in a pigeon hole.

subject to individual financial capability lo

Don't think so. Unless your cleaners send all rubbish to landfill directly by themselves; no ingress/egress from the development connecting to council's road; the drains from your development does not connect to external drains, etc.

yes water bill , tenaga, assetement rate, cukai tanah all from City Hall

me too i like landed. too bad need sell landed house and now looking for condo to stay. no budget to buy landed. too expensive

For new strata title house, garbage disposal is still handled by Majlis bandaraya's contractor and is very much depend on the contractor's quality who cover the whole area, no special treatment. But the security guard will follow the garbage truck once they come into our prescient.

JMB only maintain the infra and landscape within perimeter.

So Majlis bandaraya will directly issue cukai tafsiran to each house owner. It is excluded from our monthly maintenance fee and sinking fund.

should compare city or outskirts

unless dadikasi landed house in city center than cukur

why u like landed and need to sell landed and opt for condo now ?

Coz the house is owned by bro and sis. one of them wanted to sell to get their own house.

Why don't you take over that half? How many years house, FH?

Fair enough, for your sibling to realise their capital gain for another seed (to his/her needs)
