Or could be 500-600k house (depending on location). It's just to give some perspective and to support your point about how much/little the selling price of a house is tied to building materials (and the price increase).

the price of house is much more related to the land, if remember last time read about a property developer said that if you can get a piece of land in klang valley with a reasonable price you are almost sure of making profit from the project.

Anyway Bank Negara have said it will not raise the rate at this moment, but ask we have seen in the past this government can change it mind anything. with the inflation rate rising, Bank Negara may well be force to raise the BLR soon.

My friend bought a Maytower unit (300-400 sqf, I'm not so sure) for 200k. That's like... a shoebox?

the place actually quite good within the golden triangle and close to LRT. i am hoping we can get more development like these single bedroom studio apartment right next to LRT and within the city center, you can walk to LRT and directly to office biggrin.gif with fuel price going up to USD 200 i think this is good solution for single working adult or couple with no children. If the fuel price later rise to RM 6 per liter, a lot of ppl will looking for job closer to home, or home close to job. right now i see a lot of ppl living in one place and work at the other side of town. which include me staying in cheras but work in cyberjaya tongue.gif need to plan know where to buy my house and where in want to work. smile.gif

Maytower is close to LRT? Which LRT? The nearest I reckon is Masjid Jamek. Still need to walk for 10-15 mins sweat.gif

It's neighbouring Little India. God forbid it ends up like CityOne where the developer went dead, the place has no maintenance and property owners renting out to contract workers who will then use the swimming pool to brush their teeth.......

bandaraya and dang wangi lrt and monorail station is also nearby not sure which one is the nearest. haha Cityone is really a disaster, price of unit actually depreciated. rclxub.gif who is those idiot that rent out their unit to contract workers? the apartment design actually quite nice, better that maytower.

Can. In Bukit Beruntung even hv 25k/unit. But remember the rules - Location, location, location wink.gif
Dang Wangi is still far leh from Maytower. I'm not a big fan of the neighbourhood but I really like the concept of studio apts in the city.

They rent out to contract workers cause get higher return ma. They stay 10 people in a house - dont care also if the house looks like they gonna fall apart. This is the same case as Cyberia Condo. Rent out to students so that area become like second hostel tongue.gif

developers dont seen to be very interested in developing studio apartment currently, only seen a few example like Marc, 10 semantan and maytower. but maybe later there will be a trend of people moving into the city center instead of moving futher out into the suburb because the cost of transportation is too high hmm.gif

i think if really can afford to pay for the house then this is a good time since there will be people that delay their plan to purchase you have more room to nego the price, am i correct?

I agree they're using increasing materials cost as an excuse... who dunwan to make money  brows.gif  laugh.gif

Developers also factored not only the materials cost . There is inflation and cost of living... like everyone else they also need to pay toll, petrol, eat out and go shopping  nod.gif

i think it is more like they have slow sales these few months, trying to scare people to buy immediately before price hike so they can sell more, later cost increase less people buy they product, they will be in trouble.
