With a less than 500k budget and buying a second home for our teenager..we are torn between Savvy and M Oscar. Which should we buy?

M Oscar : Lots of facilities, grand entrance, garbage disposal system, ease of parking BUT public transport is difficult..need to have a car

Savvy : Near Segambut Train Station (4 stops from KL Sentral) near KL Metropolis and highways BUT near Malay cemetery and scrap and chop shops.

Which would demand higher rental income and be a better place to stay?

Great to hear your kid is on board too.. I personally just bought my first home next to M Oscar laa (the UOA one)..
Reason being I feel very comfortable with this area, cause my parents live nearby as well.

As for the shuttle service, I wouldnt put my bet on it for long term. A lot of project promised this kind of service, but after sometime they closed down the service due to expensive to maintain. For your case, I highly suggest looking for TOD projects, which are directly connected to MRT/LRT stations.

As there are really quite a few out there, hard to recommend as well as my choice is the project literally next to M Oscar, so a bit bias-ed.
Maybe this link below will help ease your searching? Recommend to visit the showrooms and compare at least ~10 projects, so by then you would be immune by all the sales pitch and able to make a sound judgement.
