But some time susah gak! if we have our relatives and friends who are around the main area. My hubby had been discussion on the same topic, should we move out from USJ once we retire, but we are so used this place which was built on western concept of self sufficient estate, most of the shops and necessities are within walking distance and Taipan business center is just 5 mins away. Wish we could find a similar community/estate!

Since you are Budak Subang, just continue stay there. No need to move out. Subang is not a jam as other say.

Subang is a unique area where there's nice blend of people from different race and nationality. We loved in harmony for so many years, and people are well mannered here as well.

I think noone can really give you the advice.

Firstly, you nees the home with ready move in condition, noone know your acceptance level, and searching online wouldnt help much, most of the actual unit is at least 20% worse than online/agent's photo, believe me, i was complete at least 30 houses viewing before i bought my current subsales unit.

Secondly, if you not rush to buy, i think high possibility you just ask for fun. Subsales unit is not like developer unit, each subsales unit is unique, without house viewing is hardly to know the real condition, unless you have some budget for renovation.

My advise is, just contact some agents, go to house viewing, after view at least 5 houses, then you will have different perspective than currently you just search online, then you will have idea what you need to prepare for property purchase.

Do not under estimate the cost to own an old subsales landed, it will be much higher than your estimation.

Usj 13 is high recommendation, but for ready move in condition, should higher than you budget.

I am targeting to buy in this year. Went to a few house viewing, it looks like I gotta slightly increase my budget lol.

Mind sharing what to take note when buying a sub sales? Other than leakage water mark, direct water supply bypassing or not, mbsj approval for extension (owner say it is approved, is there a way to double check by myself?)

Subsale, you can nego till the price both parties agrees.

Termite infestation need to take note. Regardless, still need to do termite treatment before you move in.

Prepare some budget to re-wire and re-pipenthe whole house. Do upgrade it to 3 phase wiring if you are re-wiring. This will future proof your house and also has the option to charge EV.

Mbsj approval usually has a CCC. Ask from the seller.

One of the most problematic area is water pipes. USJ was built in the 1990s, the metal pipes would tend to get clogged inside. Easiest way is to check all the taps and see if there's good water pressure. Next thing is to get a ladder, open up the access panel, no need to climb up but to see if the roof tiles got any stars or light shining in. For termites, they usually like the small room below the staircase or kitchen. Water gutters usually would be rusted or broken. Go check out the house during raining day, daytime and drive around during night time. Look out for neighbours parking right outside yr house and also chat with neighbours if possible.

Ask owner show you CCC and approved floor plan, double check the approved floor plan with CCC is it tally to the current house floor plan, example car porch roof is it tally to CCC, any balcony or kitchen extension is difference to the CCC, it could happen the CCC approval is for last renovation, and the latest renovation is without ccc, then you will headache in future if you want to do renovation at car porch and fencing.

Please aware the demolish and build the new car porch fencing is required plan drawing and submiision done by approved architect, and need to attach CCC, if MBSJ officer come to check and found your current house is not tally with latest CCC, they can either not approve any renovation permit, or ask you to resume everything according to CCC. My relative kenal one, need to demolish one of the unapproved awning only can proceed with renovation application.

If you choose to start renovation without approval, the officer can come to stop the construction and give penalty. It might generate more trouble to you.

For subsales house in USJ execpt USJ height etc those newer project, most of the house need to change the whole house piping , and if budget allow can rewiring. If you have no budget to change piping, can ask specialist to wash the whole house piping by food grade chemical. But i heard that is a risk of pipe burst/leak because of high pressure.

If you interested to buy some unit, can choose to view that house after raining within 1 days, at least can see the water mark. But roof is recommend to do water proof coating and change the broken roof tiles. Roof top leaking is unavoidable for old house, if ex owner never change it, even if currently no leak, it can leak in coming 5 to 10 years. Just avoid the serious leaking house, if water mark too obvious, try to.avoid.

Neighbour hood also important, you can try to monitor the neighbours.
