@samngcheesan,
1. Think a studio is a bit too small for your wife n kid
2. If you are buying this for investment, what does it got to do with u working in ss2 or stanying in subang2?

how many units left by the way? is there a need to take the highest floor? frankly it is more suitable for bachelors, couples or newly weds, with kid(s), better off investing in a bigger prop for own stay... investment wise i guess it's ok? Pai/mIssfROGY any views? or recommendations on similar locations?

hmmmm
btw..this is service apartment, gotto pay more for facilities and utilities. I think for own stay not so advisable to be paying so much for facilities and utilities. Issit freehold? If u r really going to be staying with your wife and kid, 625 is really too small unless u r staying alone. Summore this is not an expat area.....local will not rent your place at such a high price to cover your bank loan if u r thinking of investment because they would rather buy...but i might be wrong.

Sam, Think u'll need to wait very long before u can sell it off at anything above 250k (which actually just barely break even). I cant really recommend anyting else until I know what is your investment goals are and your risk appetite. Good luck

Much better to have a formal signed agreement regarding whatever they offer you.

if all sold out how you going to buy? second hand? S&P won't have all utility charges, quit rents and assessments... better to check with the land office or local town council...

bought already only ask worth to buy? anyway, did you get any discounts or freebies? you bought a little late, your entry price is above RM366psf... on the high side... you'll have to keep it for a few years if you're planning to flip, else you won't make much... might even loose considering legal fees, etc...

229k with 2 car park and on high floor, is consider cheap and eye catching price, but this only apply to 229k.... when do sqf calculation, it is 342.4 per square feet, which is VERY EXPENSIVE.
To me, i will consider it a bit over price which take the place into consideration, plus is a bit congested there.
from my point of view, a condo should be above 1000 sqf. you might find it hard to resell later on, due to the SIZE ISSUE, cause normally, condo with the price are purchased by young family with kids. this, really will have to put into consideration.
229k with this kinda size, i believe is a stratergy by the developer to lure buyer and it is in PJ area
well, up to u actually, since u HAD BOUGHT IT, DONT ASK TOO MUCH OPINIONS, CLOSE THE CASE AND GIVE IT A GO FOR FEW YEARS AND DONT EXPECT THE PRICE APPRECIATION WILL BE FAST FOR THE CURRENT UNSTABLE MARKET SITUATION AND OVER-BUILT PROPERTIES IN KLANG VALLEY.

tpl66, thanks for the calculation clarifications, i summed in the carpark as well but FYI, studio apartments and condos are entirely different concept and different target market, its like comparing apple and an orange...
