If I can afford I’ll definitely go for 1200 square feet minimum

But with the current price of condos and the maintenance fees, it’s most practical to get 900+

surprisngly, most people pick 1000-1200sq feet.

1000 to 1200 is the best for small families.

Of course

1200 should be the standard to be honest

for me, 1200 is a bit small. 1400 just nice, because will has one additional room as a storage room.

I agree, utility or storage room is such an overlooked part of a condo

I’ve seen a few big units that are very good for own stay and are still not super expensive

But once I see the maintenance fees hitting RM800 a month, I can’t say that it’s worth it anymore lol

but,how much is 1200? can most people afford.?

Hence my answer above from the first post

Flora damansara 300k for 1200sqft, cheap maintenance fee, damansara address

yea, this is the bummer. Maintenance fee... if within RM 500 i am still ok. However, having a storage room is so so so essential, because at least got a proper place to keep stuffs. Especially now so many of us kept buying from Shopee

Same

That’s why I thought about it

In the long term, I’ll have to move to a landed with an individual title

sadly i went for landed strata title..due to the headache i face in individual title, neighbour simply park their cars, their cats/dogs poop outside of my house.. and many more.

At least now i pay maintenance fee but there's rule and regulation.. and also it is also more attractive to the current gen buyer

why so cheap ? i m penangnie

that 1 is fake damansara lol.. ghetto area.

right next to damansara perdana and near to up and coming hextar mall

Go there in the evening or weekends, check out the place first especially parking.
Then go ask about maintenance of the place.

hmmmm...

It's cheap but still... Some would rather buy elsewhere.......

got resident parking, so no need to worry about roadside parking

it is Selayang price in a Damansara location. Very near to 1U, the curve, mutiara damanrasa, SS2, TTDI.

location, location, location

how would you define cheap maintenance?

Another factor, sometimes we are forced to take bigger size unit to get more car park slot. Not that we really want the bigger unit

3b2b 1k sf 2cp - Malaysia standard

if maintenance fee less than 300 for 1000sf condo

Bigger the unit, higher maintenance fees you pay. So no one size fit all.
But trend is towards smaller units about 800 sq ft these days. Easier to sell and lower monthly maintenance fees

But most important is the management of the property. Big or small doesn't matter. If JMB not working or owners not paying, then vomit blood. Leakages or paint work terrible state. Lifts are also very expensive items. If sinking funds not enough, then no money to repair. Residents suffer. Some owners don't care. They rent to anybody...from foreigners to whoever and "forget" to pay maintenance fees.

if you want to have an exit strategy, you need to have at least 1000sq and above. Usually, people buying subsale is for upgrading. Those smaller sizes might be less desirable.
