For the budget, you could stay at Puchong Jaya. Not the cancer part at IOI but the the older areas just across the river at Taylor's lakeside with FnG for example Jalan Nuri, Enggang, Bangau, Merak or Kinrara specifically only BK3 and some parts of BK2. These places you don't need to deal with the cancer LDP - Kesas interchange nor the cancer Bukit Jalil highway and lets you flush straight to the Kesas close to the MEX exit without much traffic through.

Houses in this area are all freehold other than Taman Kinrara. Taman Kinrara are leasehold, Bandar Kinrara is freehold. Houses that are 20 x 70 or 20 x 75 2 storey terrace usually go for 800k - 900k in these areas, cheaper bare units below 800k can expect to spend at least 300k to fix and renovate to be decent.

Good area imo, especially Jalan Bangau with 2 strategic exits as it is located at a corner between LDP and Bukit Jalil highway. Surrounded by greenery and is a real hidden gem. I went there house viewing last year and instantly fell in love, it is beside Taman Tenaga which is full of big bungalows and mostly left green with a nice and well-maintained playground to boot.

The only pain I would see is travelling to Sunway for education as the Sunway toll is famous for the jam.

But imo if you can up your budget just a bit more, houses that are along the Kelana Jaya LRT line will be your godsend. FnG areas for example SS24 and SS23 is close to the LRT takes you straight to KLCC within 30 minutes. But these freehold places start at 1.2 million averaging 1.5 million.
