Hi.. I need some advice here.
From an investment perspective., which is a better choice:

1) Double storey terrace corner
    Land size: 11.2 pts
    Built up area: >2500sq ft.
    Modern-ish design, reputable developer. contruction to start in June 2009
    Price: 478K firm
    Pros - Huge built up area, free kitchen cabinet, alarm, autogate, granite countertop & shower screen to all bathroom.
    Cons: Expensive for a terrace..

2) Double storey semi-detached
    Land size: 10.7 pts
    Built up area <2000sq ft.
    New developer (previous was contractor to other developers), house nearing completion - walls, roofing are up.
    Price: 460K negotiable.
    Pros - nice car park layout, good roofing work - guarantee wont leak, cheap
    Cons: Very small built up area for a semi-detached. rooms are quite small/ crowded

Both are located in the same area... Personally I'm thinking more towards option 1, but what about from an investment point of view. Lets say i want to sell it after the house is completed. Would anyone be interested in such an expensive terrace house?

Thanks in advance...

lethal combi that is ............... optimistic sellers AND clueless buyers 
minolta, are these studio's or what?

Hi,

I need SIFU advice for may case.

I just paid 2% deposit for Condo in Desa ParkCity, it cost RM480K. When I apply loan most banks value my property only worth RM400K. OMG! It almost cause my heart attack.

I have called & checked around other agents and units for sale on this condo, all price above RM500K. I asked agent why this happen, they told me is usual for Desa ParkCity, valuer just cannot cope with the increasing value in Desa ParkCity and their based on 1 - 2 years transacted data, is this true? As I looking for 90% loan, it maybe big trouble for me.

Added on May 12, 2009, 3:16 pmAnd now estate agent introduced banker Cxxx for me, he initial got value of RM450K, a day later was able to matched my value. My concern are:

1) Is this property overprice?
2) If bank offer me Letter of Offer for this price, but when valuer actual value show less, mean I have to pay the diff. as I looking for 90% loan?
3) Why other banks value so much diff. with Cxxx bank's valuer?
