idaman resideces is as good as marc

wow... thanks for all the head ups...
ok... here now i answer all questions...

1. basically now i'm looking more towards buying marc residence than I-zen after i did sum surveying around and i think that it is a bit too congested in mt kiara and i agree that it's a bit too pricey.

2. i hv enough cash for the down payment including all legal fees and s&p docs and my idea is if i do not hv d retaining power to sustain the installment, i wld not buy d property. so yeah, even without tenant for few yrs (hopefully not gonna happen since it's investment purpose! hehe!), i can afford to pay. i also agree that buying with cash is not too wise (no offence to anyone!!)

3. why i choose marc is because it's all about location location and location. firstly, klcc area is a prime city area. correct me if i'm wrong, but comparing malaysia's property price to all our neighboring country, ours is actually lower. therefore i think that in yrs to come, our country's property price, especially around golden triangle will rose up to reach the better economic standard, no?

4. i'm also aware that around tat area lotsa property are coming out and that there may be over supply but i found out that in really golden triangle area which r really close to KLCC, only 3 blocks (or 4 considering there's 2 tower of marc) has got small unit sizes studio apartment. parkview is one, but dun like the entrance and know it's got certain problems and 2 is d coming up lot 163 where d price is so much more expensive compare to marc in terms of size. Hence, if someone r to choose from these 3, dun u think marc has got better potential???

5. i'm also aware tat d occupancy rate in marc is not so good but can anyone tell me d reason???

6. of cos i'm not investing in this property for a short period of time and more of a middle to long term one, with the price so low now, i just tot its a buyers market, which brings me want to buy in now... hehehe...

7. do anyone of u think tat d market is still gonna drop further and tat shld i wait for a little while more??

pls argue with me more as i think a good debate will lead to a better judgment in deciding whether or not to go in this time around!!! thanks so much everyone!!!

do u think marc is gonna drop further???

I really don't understand why so many ppl think the nearer a property to KLCC is, the better it is. Personal preference I can get, but I bet my fat ass most buat follow je...

I was thinking long and hard on this as well...and I've finally decided to EXIT from Zest. The service apt at least. Commercial one I'm holding fast.
