Maybe you can stick with BTP or Kundang area because easy to access to highway and also the next town like country home.

Puncak Alam is getting better development because this area developed by few big developer. Another option is Saujana Utama this township already matured. Hillpark Puncak Alam also not bad but some phases occupancy rate is low and got burglary cases on and off last time. Good thing about Hillpark is higher terrain no flood issue.

Rawang now had upgraded to a whole new level - thanks to the recent road upgrades from the toll junction all the way until Kundang Jaya exit.

For your question, why not consider Blooming @ Emerald West? Price is around 6xxK ish and at least Blooming sits on the hill overlooking the entire Rawang town. Guocoland had also recently revamped the Emerald Hub area by introducing Jaya Grocer, Coffee Bean and many more to come ala Desa Park city waterfront concept.

I'm a buyer there so I could refer you for us to share the referral fee  nod.gif
*
I have checked and been to Guocoland showhouse in Emerald West, my friend... Blooming is reaching RM700,000.

Of course the bank would still approve my loan (based on my own calculation), but I'm trying to play safe here in the current or future economic condition worldwide.

My take (based on what I have learned from my father) if you could make a loan until RM700,000.00, just go for the RM600,000.00, just minus RM100,000 and don't MAX it out...

p/s: I am not a businessman, mate... Haha. Scared to death is my nature.

If you sell your 1st house. Your subsequent purchase, you can withdraw SPA10% from Acc 2 just like the 1st you did.

Can't remember, validity 2 /or 3 years from SPA date

Aahh thank you. So if this year is going to be my second purchase of house, but if I sell my first house, then I can still withdraw my KWSP's second account under house purchase category.

As long as I have ONE house in one time, right? Thank you for your explanation, jojolicia.

Ah, then if office distance and school is of no concern you have a lot selections.

Onto another question, as with many other gated & guarded residences, how important is the facilities / Clubhouse to you?
Reason I'm asking this because I'm almost the same as you. I recently purchased a condominium but i valued security, density and facilities above everything else.

Another questions you have to ask is the parking condition on the landed houses. M Residence 2 have a curb so the road doesn't looks cramped when it was parked with cars. (Unfortunately my colleague who bought M Residence 2 regretted because the distance to work and he is looking for way to exit but the property price doesn't go up at all)

Ecoworld at Puncak Alam also have this large curb that helps with parking condition.
*
Well, to be honest me and my wife don't give a damn about the clubhouse or gym too much, my friend.

But gated and guarded are our priorities. And another reason I would love to buy landed terraced house is aaa...

As someone who is from Ipoh, I have get accustomed to, used to the land (tanah) and spaces... Stuffs like that and of course you understand me.

p/s: I have a nightmare when renting a high-rise apartment (land sharing) when I first get married 12 years ago though. Since then, landed is always my choice.

Coffee bean too? Nice 👍
Btw what's the nett for blooming? Dev agent said it's abt 700ish

However they took out the clubhouse from the masterplan. This was used to market to previous buyers. Hope there will be a proper swimming pool.

I really hate when the developer taking out something from the masterplan LATER. Hhahahah!!! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Thanks for sharing, brother. Yup, it's around RM700,000.00, I have been there to Guocoland's Emerald West.

Me and my wife have surveyed around Puncak Alam and we like it too. Can't afford Eco Grandeur though. RM900,000.00 and above, right? Millions.

The exact percakapan by the kwsp officer to my wife during our enquiry over the counter 7 yrs ago was:-

Must sell the house that you made for your 1st withdrawal.
That particular house, which the officer showed her the salinan S&P in her monitor. The one that my wife submitted with application forms back then. Semua record ade dan teratur 😱

Actually bro, gated and guarded will fail if the residents are lazy to take responsibility to manage the resident association. Unless you get strata title landed which managed by management office. Sharing based on experience. Best get a low densed landed.

You are recommending, if want to get a landed type of property with gated and guarded feature, preferably it's a strata status and NOT an individual title?

Of course, I would love to hear your experience too.

Individual title the guards n management highly depending on ur residents assocaition. Some houses no pay monthly fees u cant do shit to them

if strata its like wajib to pay

So depends if u jenis rajin pay or might not pay when u retire n old later

but strata u cannot suka suka reno the exterior of ur house

Yeap. Aaron has answered a good one on top. There are pros and cons on individual title and strata. If you're going for individual get a well established taman or low densed ones. Easier to manage. And hoping you get a good neighbor. Recently a lot parking issues in my taman.

So true, my uncle house (individual title) earlier purchase like 10years ago, the residents are strong setup a gate and small guardhouse, register all visitors in/out.. recently I visit him, the guardhouse is abandon with missing gate doh.gif

He said during covid time more and more people avoid paying maintenance fee, end up cannot cover expenses cost..

In Puncak alam house under LBS is strata title, if you don't mind small build-up.. but below ur budget..

why border to move out of rawang when those that you shortlisted are newer township that are really out of no where?

Rawang itself is mature and vibrant compare to those. The closer to central rawang the best choice for your situation.

btw rawang is not klang valley so are putrajaya, kajang, bangi, semeyih, kuala langat et al. Klang valley is the 15 km band NS along klang river. This reflect brutally in property pricing. You should look pass these misconceptions introduced by developers and really think what factors dictates a good location for you.

This is very true.
At least stratafied property are already established that the guard required to do "this and that"

The unit I have in Puncak Alam beside Ecoworld (Hillpark) are not gated and guarded.
End up the security guard they hire are those cannot talk in bahasa/english, then simply open gate for anyone if the owner they called are not reachable. doh.gif

Objectively speaking Sg Buluh would be the best location if you don't mind the environment (more industrial area) and just prefer the land while you get the convenience of travel to and fro inner klang valley

Well.... it's very hard to say.
I've heard good and bad. Sg. Buloh kind of bottleneck at the exit/entrance near The Store Mall there.

Sierramas is good, but a bit atas and the price also atas. Good for long-long-term stay.
Can try consider Bandar Sri Damansara.

A lot freehold landed subsales but most likely you need to renovate whole unit to make it better. Some house is a bit old with roof leaking issue. But neighbourhood wise really not bad.

Totally avoid Damansara Damai please.

I recommend Elmina, freehold and strata landed - Ilham residence which is going to VP soon. There will be sellers and you may get a good price within your budget if you manage to get a motivated seller.
