QUOTE(DesRed @ Jan 27 2023, 03:33 PM) Just one question: Do you prefer to commute to work/social activities via car or public transportation? I prefer to drive actually, public transportation is not a must, i drive most of the time.

QUOTE(Inc. 100 @ Jan 27 2023, 03:41 PM) You can get landed (leasehold) intermediate in Taman Desa for RM1.3mil++ (RM1.1mil was for an auction unit) yea surveyed some, mostly ranged from 1.2m to 1.6m, considering lotsa ID need to be done, since majority are very old, is very tiring even to think about it. and the cash flow simply cant do that for now. But we still eyeing that area, hopefully can salvage desperate owner willing to letgo at low market price.

These all pretty much work for the lifestyle you intend. It just depends how you lean.

I think it is a great place for kid with a huge park to run ard. When you upgrade later, this can be a good investment unit with reasonable yield and higher potential capital gain than MK.

QUOTE(Cavatzu @ Jan 27 2023, 05:13 PM) Well MK has the added benefit of your home becoming a good investment (positive cash flow property though maybe not now) when you decide to upgrade. I personally believe interim own stay properties need to be investment grade. How is Cyberjaya going for TS? Spot on bro, this is what we are thinking too, good point. We were aiming for landed actually, but couldn’t really afford it for now. Simply because we felt for own stay there’s no point to buy area far far away but then jam for hours. Really had enough with jam. So future when time comes we definitely will move again, then this one we could rent it out. My Cyberjaya home we will just sell it lar This post has been edited by edison8904: Jan 27 2023, 08:20 PM

I personally not really like that area tbh. I would choose TTDI rather

My advice would be rent first. Especially if it’s a condo. You will never know the real problems until you move in.
Also RM 1 mil is a lot of money. I’m

International school Vs pushing your budget above 1.2m…if you’re struggling with this, something is not right.

I’m Agreed. Especially considering on getting such an overrated place like MK. By the looks of it, MK properties are selling at absolute future price now, does not look very promising for capital gains or even cash flow. If TS is "really had enough with jam", just try and rent a place in MK and see if it's gone or not 😂

As an investment, the rents are fairly well justified as there’s a high concentration of expats. Rest of KV has come up substantially and are at the psf level of MK or even higher.

The older condos are definitely a good buy if we're looking at psf. Some juicy 300++ psf condos ready to be taken over

Definitely works well as an own stay that could be transitioned into an investment property.

Yesterday just went for viewing Kiaraville, viewed Block A and B, size 1600sqf, 1800sqf, and 1900sqf.
1600sqf has to be ruled out, the layout is simply very cramp, doesn’t feel like 1600sqf, all the walls and corners make it felt very small.
1800 and 1900 at block B that will be a bit tough choice. 1900 we like the master bedroom, it’s spacious, 1800 we like the living hall.
Anyway, definitely Kiaraville will be shortlisted. Next we gonna arrange viewing for Kiaramas Cendana, our friends suggested there.
Any peeps have any suggestions for family stay >1600sqf near MK feel free to comment yea
