U5 is under shah alam, actually all shah alam not doing good for township development.

I don't think that is a demand  in 5 years for a high rise building subsales in U5, and this new project is surrounding by old development, if you really need a good environment, people will prefer that project closer to Elmina.

now the property market is good for new project due to low entry fee, but not good for subsales. If you buy a subsales, you need a 10% down payment and stamp duty etc.

for rental, i don't think it is high demand with good rental yield, that is few condo is planning to build surrounding the elmina project. My friend company also going to launch a new condo in denai alam with 4xxK, for new project I have no doubt the demand still very high, but for subsales that is not an easy deal to let go. My taman in Puchong, mature area, freehold landed, guarded, 22x75, many peoples want to let go @ RM 700k, but already hanging the yellow board for a year, still vacant and unable to sell, that is few people come for viewing, but noone can deal it, and surrounding new landed selling @ 1 mil, can fully sold in 1 months time, just start construction, we were thinking it will hard to sell, but fully sold within a month.

It is up to your own decision.
For me, i will say now is a good time to buy a property, but is not a new development in a non mature area, you can have a good deal in a mature area for a subsales unit, you can know what is the real market rental yield in this area, you know who is the potential tenant in this area, you can know the condo management doing a good job or not, you can know what is the shop/restaurant surrounding.

Anyhow, no pain no gain, you can try your luck to invest in a new development, high risk high return, you might gain a big profit after 10 years and enjoy your life.

Hi all,

Today I went to see a few project below 500k. The project are

1. Embayu Residence @ Sungai Buloh
2. BLISS @ OKR
3. 216Residence @ Kuchai Lama.

Among the 3 project I see, embayu residence give me the feel at home kinda feeling. But I am not sure what's the future for property in sungai buloh especially high rise.

Embayu residence is located opposite nadayu 801. The project is also surrounded by landed double story houses + few shoplot there with mamak and 2 Chinese kopitiam jz to list a few.

I like the size offered by the project (1000sq ft), 2 car park and also the price jst ngam for me. The place is also quiet with not many traffic. However the only thing holding me back from placing booking is the area.

Will there be space for appreciation since not much public transport and amenities? Dash highway is expected to complete next year.

If I would to sell in the coming 5-10 yrs time, will it hard to let go? Is there any demand for the area?

If I I'm want to rent out the property,  is there any demand for rental there?

I need a comfortable place to stay and easier to sell out when needed. If embayu doesn't fulfil, I will jz skip it. Because I myself have wrongly purchase my first prop. Don wanna repeat same mistake.

Easier to sell out as in the area still have demand. Not those area like puchong South etc that is super hard to sell out

That's why I need people comment on the area. I myself not experience at all and still in learning stage.

setia alam actually is not good, just recently EW come back, then this area start hot again.
Kota kemuning use longer time to develop, and the rental return is not that good, now many peoples want to move to the canal city due to the nice environment, i have few friends already planning to move out from KK to Canal city, they bought a super link or  Semi D in Canal city, and their neighbor many also ex KK residents.

Don't be so discouraged! It is always good to have due diligence process and screen thoroughly before making such big investment.

And also, you are consider lucky at least the first property didn't kill you off from this passion to learn and continue investing in real estate.

People make mistakes. So, don't feel uneasy at all to ask

In regards to your comments,

My suggestion is always this :-

(1) Look at the surrounding activities - Is the area you're investing near a bustling city/township or is a very quiet and sleepy town?

Bear in mind, developers can sell you many crazy dreams ie. the town will have biggest shopping mall in 10 years time lah, this place will be very Ong lah....all on FUTURE value that is yet to materialized. If you want more solid capital appreciation and lesser time needed for your exit strategy, better to buy matured area, although entry price will be higher. Because the crowd is already there, need not need a lot of "SEEDING" effect to "grow" that area, be it artificially(like Putrajaya/Cyberjaya) or Organically(Kota kemuning/Setia Alam back in 10 years ago).
With this in mind, I would suggest you should take a look at the 216 Residence that you've mention in Kuchai lama. If not , you also can shortlist a few more in the vicinity like Exsim's Millerz Sqaure mixed development project. Try to stay away from standalone township as they will need a long time for gestation period. So, you will wait donkey years to see your property achieve capital appreciation.

I personally know many friends who let go off their properties in KK Shah Alam due to unable to wait so long, only to curse and cry WTF when LKSA was completed because after that highway completed, the surrounding property shot up more than 200% ie. from 220k to now around 800k- 1million for DSL.

Thank u for advice and encouragement. My first prop was in bukit puchong. Saville D Lake. Biggest mistake I made in my life... Now that prop stucked there.. Thats why my 2nd prop I need to be more careful and ask more opinion from knowledgeable others..

Will have a look into 216 Residences again. Besides that, do you think the purchase price is expensive?

835 sq ft 2b2r
1 cp
425k

834sq ft 3r2b
2 Cp tandem
480k

After your failure investment in cheras, you canged the ID ,uncle bean.

You always complaining other project, but your failure investment, you keep  silence.

You made a money in setia alam, just because you bought before bull run.
The limitation of setia alam exist, caused jam, many peoples bought it just because of the low entry price before with a shopping mall. But after that, the demand slow down and untik recently EW come back, the new investment start hot again. My friend was trying hard to sell the setia alam project last year, this year only start better due to people can see the EW progress in this area.

Today saujana putra also heavy traffic during working hours, it is called success township based on your theory? The canal city is part of the contribution to saujana putra traffic jam.

Please don't simply assume or accuse...I am an agent but i don't exclusively sell Exsim's project, there are many other projects and I don't tie myself down or simply recommend someone something just because I want the commission.

By the way, I just calculated, even if based on your KK current price of 750k, 750k divided by 220k is almost 340%. So, Not right for me to say more than 200%? can u then please explain to me with your figures and facts, i would like to learn.

And also, my onus is to provide my insight only, whether TS buys whichever project, is not up to me to force or decide. So, stop bashing me just because you think you are right. I feel you are taking my opinions here so personally.

Chill man bro!     

Sorry i am not interested to debate with you in this thread. If you really have the guts, don't attack me personally on this thread. You've already said - this is no kopitiam thread. I am here just to provide my 2 cents worth of opinions and provide value. Whether or not TS decides to listen/buy from me/whatever decision made is not my thing to bother and to force.
If you really want to debate, take me on on my Personal Facebook account, I willing wait for you to PM me. I will provide you with my Facebook account so that I can add you, and then you  can take it on from there. You can even bash and shame me publicly on Facebook if you think i am speaking nonsense. I have no problem doing that. I debate with someone with  real name and real person. Not someone who is a keyboard warrior.
   

to be fair those SP setia northern phases that selling affordable landed for everybody is the one that make it hot again... not EW... EA min per unit also 1.2m and above... hardly have enough population to make it hot also given the number of units in offer... the northern setia alam getting more vibrant and more population due to those affordable landed and now causing more jam... but generally NKVE itself not enough to sustain the traffic these days all the way from klang... even setia alam solve their own traffic problem... the jam at SA toll still unavoidable due to NKVE jam itself...

lol... some ppl have to be based on assumption before sharing something here ma... in his case is his frens le... just that his fren also seems misinformed about the condition there... the slowdown in between was due lack of new launches at the northern side after SP setia got taken over by the gov... til all the p17 p13 p14 etc keep blooming out every year... the heat of setia alam is back again... all affordable homes also kasi sapu habis... more geng than sell vege...   

Me and my partnw actually have a unit at Bangsar south, cubic botanical. Studio unit. Not sure if u heard bout it. Actual location is pantai dalam.. Now am looking for own stay due to have family soon.. Saville d lake not an ideal for us and cubic its too small.
