I’m always a Mk fans , previously can’t afford . Nowadays the price really very tempting . For older condos like pines palma pelangi , still ok one , kds kiara 1888 , casa kiara 2 .
Recently been observing bj too , condos like km1, the link 2 , the rainz , etc . Bukit jalil demography is getting better . Dilemma , if you have 800k , where will you get . Which more atas ?

If u would like to buy for your own stay, actually depend on which one is more convinience to u or which environment u like more.
Since u already knew well on your own financial background n done with the calculation, the rest is depend on your own "feel".

Just my 2cents.

Different side of KL bro…if you check waze, it takes approx 30min to drive. Hence it depends on where your activities are normally centered around

what’s your definition of atas?

if your atas means surrounded by angmohs then you know the answer. house price MK beats BJ too

Mont kiara for for international neighbourhood while BJ for local… if you plan to send your children for international school and you work at PJ, Damansara area.. MK is better … if you hope for more greeneries and local life… BJ is better..
For budget around 800k.. still can look for decent size condo in subsale market

It has its own merits…Alice Smith school, IMU, concerts

Still believe in MK. Prices for those older well maintained condos has hit a sweet spot. I really believe BJ is getting overpriced

Tan, since you've always liked this MK area, personally I would go for it if you can afford now. Would have regrets later in life if not.

BJ actually like any other area nearby it, not as distinguished as MK, and not atas.

Go for the location and the neighborhood, and what you want in life: MK

Bj now not cheaper then mk d bro . You see twin arkz park 2 Km1 . Expensive then a lot of condo in mk , but don’t compare those Mk10,11 la 😅

Yup … bukit jalil is expensive thou…

Yes bro … mk , but won’t regret also later , I don’t think price will increase anymore for d older condos … so many new condos in the vicinity, for sure very competitive… waiting agile to drop 850k … doable I think 😊

I love BJalil but my sis loves MK. If you love activities as much as my sis definitely go for MK coz BJ very small nia, we got everything we need but something else we will go to the city. It’s suburb vs city after all. How do you love to spend your Fri nights your weekends? I think that answers a big part of the question

Why go city ? Sri petaling got all sort of things , if not then pavilion bj if not then mid valley , not that suburb la , but of course mk more happening la
Fri night . Bj got link 2 , pavi , tropika Oomph side to chill , mk got Solaris , publika , 163 etc .
Both also quite decent .

Right, sounds like MK bro.
Eventually you want something else, from Mk you could easily get to bangsar klcc changkat whereas BJ surrounding suburbs are less happening, affluent wise

It’s also cool cafes, restopub hunting etc etc bro, mk offers more options at your doorstep and short distance away, if it’s a balance your seeking then go for bj… for family planning I like to think it as bj but diff strokes for diff folks

that’s just 1 or 2 examples in BJ lol. i stay here, i know how properties are here in BJ. atas wise, MK still takes the cake

There’s always upside. No such thing as prices won’t increase. Old or new condos prices will no longer increase like thegood old days, but there’s definitely upside in the long term. There’s no more land in MK, everyone is building around MK and claiming it to be Mk north etc. Therefore, if you buy old MK or new MK it’s still a piece of MK and in the long term I believe it will go up.

Just don’t expect prices to double anytime soon

Don’t compare anjung hijau vista komanwel bro . Mk also got vista kiara , lanai kiara 😅

Will newer condos at North kiara dutamas eg verdana , 28 dutamas , anjali better than older condos In proper mk eg , bayu , angkupri , ceriaan kiara

We had came across this topic few weeks ago.. B.jalil price above Mk and PJ is just mind blowing for me.. Lol

Tan, in that case there's no reason to go for BJ

Tan, since you're getting this for own stay, as long as price becomes affordable, go for it. Don't have to think about its value appreciating in future as you're staying there for the long term

Could be because most lowyat forum patrons are BJ people, so properties in BJ are hot topics, thus a lot of FOMO readers go for BJ

Don't think so. It is just many new projects coming up around BJ. Heck we even have new term bukit jalil south lol.

20 years ago we have the hartamas trend, then damansara... Fast forward today, it is BUKIT JALIL.. Any project can link to pavi will get instant lead

BJ South is where? Serdang?

Bukit Serdang... It is called as bukit jalil south LANDED Freehold..

Main concern is within the price range , you can get slightly newer condo in bj , in mk you get older condos . Hmmm

As long as the community and neighbourhood is good. New condos after some years also become old, so should be buying for the neighbourhood and community, and slowly do interior design and reno

Bkt sounds very nice, but that location is actually quite far east

If jam 40-50min apart.

Definitely Mont Kiara. Over there got a better Korean community and good international school.

Which location nearer to your working place?
Mont Kiara has that atas feel, can walk and jogging got that expats feel but the condos there also getting aged.
Bukit Jalil is the hot location now with the Pavillion Bukit Jalil effect.

Never go wrong with Mont Kiara or Desa Park City or Taman Desa if can afford. Bukit Jalil not too far behind, Hehe.

The goal of T20 is easy, live in BJ hustle in BJ

Then buy a trophy property in MK n retire

Every day can retire drink cappucino eating kwaaaasooong

Your criteria is "Atas"..... means your heart is already MK la, just want more people to support your decision.
man up and chose what matter for you bro......

if you earn more than 20k/month, dont need public transport, dont eat chap fan, then MK loh.

Bro what is 20k a month today .
House 3k + gonna buy a new one let’s say another 3.5
Car + petrol 3k
Anak 3k
Parents 2k
Insurance 1k
12k gone . 😂

Work off peak hours so both also fine . Taman desa yup not bad . But other then desa papillon . No nice condo already , and that papillon price , anytime mk haha

For condos I think older one would be better built than newer ones. Newer ones u tend to hear pipe burst water leaking issues.

insurance 1k

What's the attraction with Taman Desa? Have not ventured there

Tuff life 🙃

it’s all choice lol. insurance and parents could’ve gone lower

lol but few years later, that could just happen and it’s gonna be normal

Yup, simply tembak.
20k - single income.
make your own choice le, pick and choose. -cant have everything


want 2 houses,
want conti car,
may be want full time maid,
want eat good stuff every other day
want nice watch,
may be international school for kids.
golf club...... etc

I guess you’re Not a good son 🤣 jk

Bro don’t assume . I guess many are earning around there. Really not enough … international school for kids impossible la unless you’re making 600k a year or more perhaps yes

That's if we are talking about 20k nett

For single income, it means close to 30k gross

And 20k nett isn't that much tbh

Yup . Agree . 20k nett , wanna buy a 800k condo also need to think kinda long . Don’t tell me all the new project who’s over 800k , everyone earning 30k a month 😅 . Choice actually 😃 and yeah if you talk to property agent . 10k nett you can afford 1.2m house 😂😂

This sub forum has more agent than normal user, so just be aware lor

Ju, how you know?

How many people in Klang Valley got 20k nett income? Really need that high salary to buy a good condo?

Agree, the heart is at MK already. Go for it

Pay more attention to the replies then.

How many, I don't know. Not for me to answer. But what known to me was auction property is quite happening now.

Everyone has different spending behaviour and commitment to take on. Guess 3k salary buying a Honda civic is not something new to you right.

Not much but a lot too . Kinda common .

... Klang Valley a lot of rich people, that's a high salary huh

The only ones which indicate they're agents is when they say to pm them for info.
The others look like real sharings.

…
