QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Dec 12 2007, 11:29 AM) Any comments on the place? Also, what's the current going rate for a 1800 square feet unit? facade is Fugly, but i feel its quite value for money. Going rate nowadays is approximately 470k-520k(think can still nego further). Orinally sold by SHC for approx 380k onwards, performed poorly upon VP, where asking prices drop to about 430k only. Poor layout & space utilisation by SHC, hence the 1800sqf feels more like 1400sqf only. At 500k, your sister might be better off buying BU DSL units, IMO  |

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Dec 12 2007, 02:29 PM) @Pai,
I think the last price sis mentioned was in the RM600k range, not in the RM500k range! *grins* The unit's been done up quite nicely so if she's got to pay a little more I think that's fine; but it shouldn't be too much from the going rate. If it's RM520k, then it's an additional RM100k we're looking at and it might just not be worth the $.
I'm not about to convince her to look at something else as there are other reasons why both her fiance and her chose that location; I wouldn't consider it as i'd always like the idea of having a garden hence high rise property's not my cuppa tea.
Having said that, I will take a look at the unit and leave the decision for her to make. I just wanted to make sure she's not gonna end up paying too much for it. From the way she's described the unit, I probably wouldn't mind purchasing it if it was going for RM500k !! *grins* 580k is over-valued, as just 1 year ago I saw few bukit utama ads going for circa 430k. I still remember seeing ads going for 480k jst 3-4 months back. I think she should wait since SHC will be launching their Bukit Utama phase 2 early next year. Might as well buy something newer with better chance for capital gains upon completion. QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Dec 12 2007, 02:29 PM) Speaking of which, have U bought ur house yet?! Yup  |

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Dec 12 2007, 03:09 PM) @Pai, You'll tell me I'm out of my mindPS: Haven't decided if it's going to be for own occupancy or investment *grins* try me btw, how come you've yet to decide whether its for investment or own use? Thought one should always be clear on their investment goals before committing?

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Dec 12 2007, 03:38 PM) It's uh... well, maybe can buy 5.5 of your Kelana Jaya unit? *gulps* I'm clear on my investment goals - i *don't* need to shift into this place so right now it's really for investment purposes I see. Pardon my curiosity, but why opt for a leasehold property when u can get a freehold linkhouse with that kind of budget? If its for long term investment, would'nt it be safer if u bought a freehold property instead? Sumore its in Sg.Buloh wor? |

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Dec 13 2007, 11:18 PM) @Pai, Apologies. Made a calculation error. It's 5x not 5.5x. And the answer to ur questions:- 1) There are no more freehold houses available within the development I'm looking at 2) I would have preferred freehold to leasehold but due to unavailability of freehold units within the development i'm looking at, i was willing to go for leasehold instead. 3) I believe in the development and like the location, despite it being in Sg Buloh ic if u dont mind sharing, what's the name of the developement that u r buying? |
