kemuning utama is a good place. go and see paramounts project. i love it. berjaya good concept... but i never have faith in them. their track record to shabby bandar puteri has a reputable developer but i think it's to far from KL and selangor. where as kemuning is in the middle. Infact kemuning is the best choice in the middle of klang and subang jaya and kl.... it's only the properties above 700k that are dying out but the propertis 350 and below are flourishing. Fantastic landscaping and concept nearby ammenities. i think u stay in klang? Anyway go see kemuning utama by paramount i think it;'s one of the best projects in kota kemuning. kemuning may seem slow now but it will be a hit in the future and its a great place to have kids. Further more accesible to SJ in 20 mins and KL in 30-40mins and klang in 20 mins. fantastic landscaping as well. i was thinking of buying kemuning but i decided to invest in land last year. i actually qued up for 1 week but ended up not buying. i think u can get a good deal in kemuning. The best thing to do is to actually spend 4 hours each in all the areas you have mentioned drive around, walk around see how accesible it is to where u work and also to major parts of the klang valley. I've gotten a few good deals from a few investors i know but i passed because it's a little to far for me to commute to show my clients.

Unless of course u only plan to commute to klang, then bandar puteri is a good choice. stay away from berjaya. seriously bad track record and i think they are not a reputable company. u might have headaches with your land title and also your security and compound management in the future.

so nice ah buy house with GF ah ... oh yah regarding value right i don't think i can give u exact prices so i won't wing it. but go for paramount's kemuning utama project anyway if i am not wrong the units have been built and there are quite a few good deals there and also the title is out already i think people correct me if i am wrong. I love kemuning la only if i could afford to stay there.

Let me share with you on Bdr Puteri Puchong since someone asked on it as well. When it started Phase 1-2, it was selling at rm240k-280k only around year 2000.
Year 2003-2004 was selling at rm320k
Year 2006 around 360-380k
Year 2007 around 399k
Year 2008 around 420k-460k

Also if you do a comparison with nearby garden/developers (someone mention here also) IOI properties in BPP sells at a higher premium of 20k-40k. BPP = F/H

All are based on standard intermediate 20-22' width x 70-75' length 2-storey with avg built up 1900-2200 sq ft, new units from developer (IOI) for comparison sake. Not those fancy 2.5 storey or end/cornet lot.

Choose the proper area in BPP if you plan to purchase there. Top of the hill is nice, but no public transport if not along the BPP main road.

My 2 cents.

3) Indah Elite of Kemuning Utama which was launched 2 years ago was only priced at around 280k. It is now completed and the subsale price goes up to 350k now. and the new launch (Indah Residence 2) is selling at 365k and above. Is this appreciation rate reasonable and will it be a bubble that will stopped inflating / start to burst few year down the road?
Thanks !

Hmm gkl83, thanks for pointing out that. How do you see the pricing trend going forward? I understand that there will be some more new launch happening end of this year, for IR2. dunno the how the pricing will be like... 

yeah man, IR2 Phase 8C1 (the one you referred as IR3) is selling like hot cakes. I went there yesterday and found that it is almost 80%-90% booked.
Those units priced at 365k are all booked.
