Seeking advice from veterans here. I'm 28 this year and in the process to purchase my 1st property with the help from my parents. I am planning to buy a 1.6k sqft unit (ayanna residence) in bukit Jalil. What bothers me the most is the extremely huge amount of money thrown in here and I would like to sell it in the future to purchase a bigger house upon nurturing my family growth, as I'm planning to tie the knot in 1-2 years. I have asked my friends and people around me about the pros and cons of the property. Some say location its good, some say its bad. Why buy such an expensive condo when you can get a subsale landed at a cheaper price? Condos are the worst investment, you will definitely lose money and the list goes on.

The reason why I chose this condo because of its price and location, nothing more. Its close to the highway for me to travel to my hometown in melaka and go N9 & Shah Alam for work. Going to central KL/PJ will be a hassle, but I'm willing to sacrifice for the latter options. Food, mall and other amenities is near me, so I can ease in my new life here in BJ

Back to my question, is it wise for me to dump such an amount for a condo? I'm very worried that I could be making a disastrous choice, but houses are getting so expensive in KL and apparently the norm to obtain a 1k sqft+ property condo is already starting at 600k+. It is my 1st property and I don't want to make a bad decision that will affect the rest of my life thinking that I could have used the money to invest in business or something more worth

Hi guys! Appreciate all the replies and I apologise for not responding earlier as I’ve been dissecting all the inputs on what steps to take next. My loan process is still ongoing, so nothing is confirmed yet.

For those wondering, my parents are planning to invest rm300k as downpayment. I wouldn’t say I come from a very rich family, only slightly above-average. Our family business was kickstarted by my late grandfather who is very wealthy. Yes, I stay in a corner semi-D landed in Melaka. My dad specifically love the idea of condo home because it’s very convenient and gives a holiday feeling.

I will be exploring bk5 and other sub sales nearby from the recommendations of the forumers here. It’s just less than 10 min from ayanna and most importantly - freehold. Previously, I’ve searched for sub sales in bandar kinrara, but I only looked at Jalan TK/DU which was leasehold and I based the entire houses in bandar kinrara as leasehold which was very foolish of me

Stirring my decisions based on the investment side on rental returns and capital gains is not my strongest point, but I entirely believe that landed is definitely on the safe side

Thanks all again for the effort to answer my doubts, I will explore more of BK this week.
