i stay at cahaya spk, you can take a look there as well, i feel its less populated compare to puncak alam and nearby housing area, there are some bank lelong units and subsale should be around your budgets as well. so far, the community is quite good, low crime rate, just that the traffic is not that ideal until DASH is completed.

yea the traffic was so bad at one point i fed up and moved to city center, i live in city center and go back on weekend, cant tell you how much i miss the place, the peaceful morning, no traffic sound, no noisy neighbor, can go to jog anytime i want etc, plan to move back once DASH is completed
no, i am not the only one who do this, my neighbor also moved out because of traffic, but they come back during weekend as well...hehe

30km radius covered about 2,800 km2 area, and dbkl jurisdiction covered 243 km2.

It is hardly to get 600k FH landed that fulfill your requirement.

For subsales , maybe, but for sure is an old and non well maintained unit, you need at least 100k to 200k for repair and simple renovation.

Maybe an auction unit can help.

Puncak alam is very far let says you choose 1U as a center point.

Setia Alam is an option, but all the cheaper phase is fully sold, you can try your luck in subsales, the township still new, the only thing is traffic jam at toll towards NKVE during morning working hours and vice versa

Persada,  subang bestari not as well known as only 40 house in this g&g area

Anytime kinrara

Frankly having a G&G space for kids to run around etc really helps in their development.

I'm an introvert and dont relly step out of the house much, so condo is good for me, but for my kid I made the sacrifice to stay further form the city center, to get a landed and doubled down on a decent sized extra land and strata... really stuff that I personally dont need...

no its 3 storey linked house arranged in clusters/ blocks

Many don't realize strata title maintenance could be expensive and ill affordable to most retirees.

Ken Rimba is G&G with individual title right? So basically it is just as good as F&G not like strata title G&G, isn't it?

Correct me if I am wrong. I am just a noob started to read about all this for the past 1 year only.

They have to come up with creative ideas how to pressure those uncooperative owners into paying. One example is they need to use visitor lane where the palang come up much slower while paying owners can use access card in owner lane. Effective or not i dnt know. That's why some ppl want to just avoid these disagreements n opt for strata GnG so got law to back up their fees collection.

Maybe have a look at Bandar Seri Coalfields. I takes me about 30-35 mins to reach my office at Damansara Perdana. If jam on Kuala Selangor Road, I take the NKVE-LATAR and reach within 40 mins but pay toll.

It is freehold and there are gated and guarded communities within. Mine is Senna which is gated and guarded. There is a club there with pool facilities, badminton, tennis and basketball. Also a huge park. My daughter goes to the park almost every day.

The best part I think for you would be the fact that Wesley Methodist private school is there. Your kids can go to school there and the fees are reasonable.

Elmina is further to my office than BSC and as GEN Z said closer to Shah Alam and Bukit Subang.

Elmina is also more expensive than BSC. BSC is freehold and close to BSC is Eco World Project. There will be Aeon, KIP Mall and Jaya Grocer. Tesco and Econsave towards Puncak Alam.

Anyway just a suggestion as you are looking at below 600K freehold

Good luck! Hope you find a suitable home soon. I plan to visit Hamptons BSC showroom this weekend. Looking at the Semi D

Everywhere traffic is terrible. I prefer stay near office and pay a bit more for the time saved.
