Wait till after the crisis. Make sure no 14th floor or it maybe haunted after that.

Where is your work place and how do you commute. Are you married?
What is the service fee like?
But it's nice to know that you got 1.8m on hand.

I would find a nice landed property depending on your location.

If you think too far in future, it is better buy a condo size that is appropriate to your lifestyle or a small family size.

Condo normally tend to ended in not so nice environment after some years especially newer and more fancy condo appearing.
You can check out those 10-15 years high class condo and you will know the standard won't rise anymore and being overshadow by others newer condo

If you buy 2000++ sqft now, later you have change of heart, not many local able to afford it anyway and will be hard to sell when your unit is consider not happening place. If you really wanted to buy a condo, don't buy duplex. It doesn't show the big "wow" space like in 1 floor 2000++ sqft unit.

Of cos, if you happened to get a very very good price and you have the cash to hold it, no harm trying.

Btw if you afraid of living alone and scare of ghost, why want so big space? more spooky ler  whistling.gif

Firstly, i want a big house (eg. duplex/penthouse) because i am also planning ahead for the future. If i were to purchase a landed property, are the security guards reliable? Or can you suggest a landed property area near MK that is safe and also no reptiles and other dangerous animals around? I guess if i were to buy a condo, i dont need to be concerned about dangerous wild life stopping by my house sweat.gif . But im not so sure of how safe lumina kiara's security is, but most condos do have better security.

Ah, why montkiara then? I think you can get a nice landed in Sg buloh side there. Tbh with 1.8 you might get a cozy house in ttdi/kota damansara.

Good luck in your future endeavours.

I've actually lived in kota damansara bfr and most of my neighbours are very loud, literally no respect whatsoever, the security and safety however is really good! But i wouldnt move back to KD, the neighbourhood is also full of rats and my rooftop (in kd), was filled with rats too! I find MK, or even TTDI have respectful neighbours and definitely not nosey. This is based on my experience, maybe my prev house in kd was just unlucky.

Hey guys! I guess i can consider myself as a young adult, i've been eyeing on a duplex model condo in lumina kiara. But i am not sure if i am making the right decision, or are there better condo's in mont kiara that is around my price range, my priorities are basically the safety of the condo (whether the security guards are reliable and trusted) and it the location is haunted because i am most likely living alone. I know lumina kiara is right beside the toll which is the highway, and highways are known for being haunted hahahaha.. if anyone of you have better suggestions than lumina kiara, please help a sis out smile.gif (stating pro's and con's would be great too)

Thanks in advance!

Hey did you buy?

Don't listen to others when it comes to condo vs landed. Whatever works for you. I've stayed in Kiara since 2013, in a condo on JK3. It's fine. Jams aplenty these days but where in the city there isn't any jams laaaa.

Landed has its pulls but as you say, security can be an issue, but although condos too can have same issues although it's easier to contain.

I looked at Lumina today. Signing up on Monday. Hopefully by end of month VP is secured. It's the penthouse.

Lumina sux. For the price, rather get Kiara Ville, Tiffany or even Seni.

ONE advantage of Lumina over the rest you mentioned is access. Now, with so many condos on that road including Pavilion Mont Kiara, that access to Jalan Duta Kiara can be a pain in the mornings. Only one ingress and egress there. At least Lumina has one main road access.

Also, area around Lumina is matured as all plots are developed. The other areas have neighbouring plots still to be developed. Your current view is a concern.

ONE downside of Lumina is highway noise, and but I found it manageable with windows closed.

Yes. I understand. If in this case you can consider the latest development KaMi.

Or,

La Grande Kiara, they have a very good management. Old building looks like new. JMB is their own residence, so they took really good care of it. I will advice u to take block B.

Or,

Look for new project as well, just beside La Grande Kiara. Now they are doing the basement / piling thing.

Good choice. MK is a fantastic place to stay. Once you stay in MK, you will be surrounding yourself with successful highly educated people. You will barely see a rempit .

Lumina is great. RIght smack in the middle of MK. Can walk to Solaris MK and damn near Publika and Plaza Mont Kiara.

Once you stay in condo, you are never moving to landed house.

I am staying in condo in MK and noway i can move to landed house. Landed is just plain old skool boring.

MK, D’sra Heights, Bangsar are the most ideal locations in KL i think. Middle of everything, easy access to everywhere mang

Far from Civ?
Hahah
True it is mostly young sjkc crowd but it's very much a self contained township nowadays and the access has been improved by the DUKE highway.

The 3 areas you named are aspirational but all plagued by jam and sky high old money prices.

Actually I like DPC. But access can be problematic. The park is the biggest plus point for me.

Traffic should just be an inevitable part of living in the city, i think. Can’t argue about the pricing. I’m looking for smtg in MK as well, lots of up and coming new developments. Even considered the outskirts of MK, near Segambut , but again the crowd and that place is all factories and stuff put me off
