Good Morning, Sir/Mdm,
Firstly, congratulation on being an owner of a piece of land (First liner prime land).
Being trained in Architectural, Civil & Structural and being a consultant in the Property Development from Concept Design to construction till completion plus property management and maintenance industry/environment for more than 40 years from Malaysia, Singapore till London at least give me the confidences to provide you a feasible and more productive proposal for your very valuable piece of land. I am of the opinion that you are throwing away your opportunity to make a good and above average income for life to somebody else instead of making full use of it. So consider the possible return on this land and not wasted your chance of a lifetime. Herewith, is my few professional view cum advices in point form as follows:

a) This is a prime land, meaning it is a FIRST LINER (Facing the main road having high exposure plus at least
reasonable/high traffic. Translate to be concluded as highly feasible for development with lucrative ROI.

b) RM12k is nothing to shout about when loads of merely 1,400 sqft shop lots easily commands more monthly
rental return, just imagine RM40,000 to RM50,000 monthly rental for a tiny 100 sq ft food stall at KLCC food
court Imagine the potential return upon developing the land.

c) Study the possible concept cum type of possible development and guesstimate the possible long term return
upon completion of the development in a few short years time. Develope it yourself if you are financially
able or JV with a honest relative, friend and/or experienced person/company. You can achieve possibly ten time
more monthly return compared to the offer of 30 years lease from a broker profiting from your land,

d) MC Donald and others similar companies surely did a feasibility study before investing in a project, inview of
these due diligence performed, this is a reasonably safe and good ROI development.

e) Conduct a preliminary conceptual layout design in compliance to relevant local authorities
By-Laws and look at the possibly ROI cum bigger monthly income will be your wake up call.

f) Forget about this non feasible 30 years lease offer, and starts planning for the development for more hugely
profitable life long returns.

g) I have a never ending dream of developing a piece of land but never the finance capability to purchase a piece
of prime land to develop, and you are thinking of throwing away this readily available precious opportunity.

h) My personal conclusion, advice and professional view is to forget the 30 years long lease offer and go for
development

Good Day, Good Health, Good Luck and most importantly, make a Good Decision

Thank you for your very insightful feedback we've gotten another few proposal from other fast food chain and will we considering all our options

mcd and starbucks both under same boss in malaysia

offers are by franchisee who already have established McD outlets in malaysia.
the franchisee for the SB will be different to the one in McD. Hence a scenario can be that i can get 10 offers to open McD while all 10 offers come from different people

Oh ok ok, didn't aware of that

Dear Sir/Mam,

Here is a real life case scenario you can study/confirm to assist you to conclude on.
Back in the mid nineties a friend of my inherited a piece of land at Kedah, and was on the verge of selling it to an offer or RM2 millions. I stopped him from selling it and come up with a concept layout design plus an estimated TDC {Total development Cost) plus a TDV {Total Development Value) feasibility study and concluded a ROI of app Rm5 million plus promised to help him on from commencement till completion of the proposed development , in the end he decided to proceed with proposed development with a layout capital of only RM250,00 (Bridging loan and others acquired). The project was completed with more profits then estimated at RM6.2 millions due to lower cost and lesser amount of out of pocket expenses, it's no secret and the land owner was one named Mr Lau, plus the project was named Taman Emas.

Do a feasibility study and forget about long lease offer and develop it yourself or you will regrets later.
Good Day

You have to understand that if there is a mcdonalds it will indirectly increase your land value as well.

You have to look in a bigger picture.

They usually get 30k sqf for a standalone building. Yours is 20k so your location is main point they getting it.

Second...be it 10~50 years, high % rental increment... A couple notice and off they go. Be aware of this. Of course, investing a sum to build an outlet means they are serious too. Make a wild decision benefit yourself wont harm (your pocket).

People talk about ROI. Do some calculations. Sometimes developed doesn't mean u get good return as more cost involved. U might get back a few shop lots. Bear in mind, not all lots u get is the best one.

Leasing the land out appropriately anytime u will get a good return, and most importantly, u still own the land.

Im handling one parcel of land from my friend. This is somewhat similar so hope you get it.

Should open-up your own McD.
