What ongss say earlier suddenly bring me back the memorylane. I could recall when I was renting at Taman Desa area, that time scott garden still under construction. I could clearly recall the first few years of it's completion.

That time among friends we are aiming at owning a unit in scott garden as our goal, but now I am lucky I did not really get one there. Hahaha!

There are so many uncertainty buying those soho sovo sofo. Now turned into I dont know nest and farm of illegal businesses.

Concept seems good, but it doesn't really work out.

Yo, guys! So, I ain't even at the buying stage yet, I'm still in the prep and grind phase - trying to save and earn that dough.

I know it might seem a bit premature, but I gotta know where I'm headed and how much cash I need to make it happen.

I've seen some majorly experienced folks talking in here, so I thought I'd throw this out there - anyone got an idea or formula for figuring out how much I need to snag a sweet 2 mil crib in or around Bangsar?

Like, what do I need to factor in for a subsales purchase - down payment (I'm thinking 10%), spa fees, legal fees, renovation fees, and what else?

This whole process has got me feeling hella perplexed, so any insights would be dope. 

I totally agree that renovating can be incredibly expensive. I'm not planning on demolishing the whole house and starting from scratch. One of my buddies did that, and ended up spending RM 2 million, even though the terrace cost only RM 1.2 million. That's a bit insane, right? I'm not going to go that route.

By the way, does the 18% you mentioned include the minimum requirements for basic renovations? I'm thinking of buying a 20-year-old terrace that may need some rewiring, plumbing, fresh paint, and new ceilings. The kitchen cabinets and wardrobes may also need a revamp, and I might need to fix up the flooring and bathrooms. I think these basic renovations might cost around RM 150k. I was wondering if anyone has experience with this and could help with some insights.

Elon Musk bought MK, all price in MK shoot up overnight like spacex rocket. 

Really showing what an overrated place MK is. Thank you for sharing!

I believe jam is relative to where you work and I have not come across any place in PJ/KL with no jam during peak hours. Buy where it suits you

MK is an okay place. Got affordable, got expensive. Even at the higher end of 1000 psf, many other places are already at that level or even higher.

I really like the tai tai analogy 😂 yea no doubt if you are a house wife or you can WFH, it'll be great but might as well get DPC with the ridiculous price MK is offering. It'll be more suitable for families with the closer amenities and better community. I mean who doesn't like puppies

Gotcha my friend, anywhere you recommend? We work in KLCC quite long time ady, both our jobs are in MNC, so working area definitely in klcc for years to come.
Property in klcc area, really cant afford uhh, we used to work in embassy as well, embassy area condo also price like crazy, not able to afford.

You are right bro, mixed development also aim to meet this demand, Verve, Ooak is such an example right? But their build up seems to be smaller and investor focus instead of home stay right?

May I know why Meridin and La Grande price so low compare to nearby similar properties? Something happened or workmanship or managemnt problem?

Especially La Grander psf look very attractive but feel weird why is it so low.

Oic its the management problem. My friend choose this over Agile because of the price is attractive.

Is it lastime was occupy by a lot of black people like negro? Think I heard it from somwwhere but not sure is it true and that turn a lot of tenant away.
