Singapore govt elite admin grade called "administrative officer" bench mark at S$391K per year at age 32.

Also civil servant, clerk looked alike doing clerical work and make so much. What say you? They also have permanent secretary making $M dollars per year as if forever secretary enjoying such income.

Different clerk at different place make diferent money...

Those clerk at bunkering business also make a lot of money.. though cannot be compared with those govt permanent secretary.

Okay, with sales-related commission, I have no doubts about S$3.5k. I was just trying to dig out bit by bit from you why an office clerk can earn so much. Good to be clearer in your information, as too many gaps leave people with a lot of doubts about your credibility.

Hi everyone,

Did anyone install Solar Water Heater?
Any good brand and seller's name or contact to recommend?

Thank you very much.

I think the whole setup will cost easily 6K to 8K , how to justify cost saving ?
Maybe engineers should R&D solar pannel to run aircon instead , can save 30% of electricity also can justify.

I'm installing this as one of those extras to attract my future tenants

In EL, a fully furnished semi-d is being rented out at RM15k, I'm targeting RM12k as mine will not be fully furnished(average should be around RM10k). At such price, can't give tenants a bare and basic unit

isn't it better to use that 6-8K to throw in other electrical appliances such as washing machine, tv, fridge...etc to attract tenant, instead of just 1 solar heater?

Re: New Tax Rates For Foreigners Owning Properties In Johor

Unless the tax is going to be extremely high, otherwise i am not too concerned given that it is a yearly thing. Someone just bought 8 units in a place i will refer to as CG yesterday and though we not involved with their project, my guys patiently waited for them until the staff finally finished the sales forms, etc as they basically messed up the process, got names wrong, etc.

One tactic by the agents i must highlight here, they brought China buyers to Masai/Plentong and ulu places including a place called "mattress in rural area", then they told the buyers that they have seen all of Johore and then they bring them to CG.

Some of the sales staff were also a bit uppity and proudly said to those who went in, you are all here to buy property, otherwise why are you here, so hurry up and buy. There are no better properties in all of Johore! When my team shared this with me, i just smiled.

I probably need to build a dedicated team to be stationed at the developers but main problem i can't pull myself out from work.

Upcoming projects:Shoplots in Zone A
Shoplots and landed in Zone B
Condos in Zone A, B and another zone not at liberty to share for now
Landed in Zone B
Other types of property

Hehe what makes you so sure that I'm not buying those items?
I've mentioned that the solar heater is 'one of those extras'.

Electrical solar panels has been in use for many years. Many countries including Singapore also allow you to export or sell back extra power back to the grid. Here's a web site for SUNPOWER that is quite interesting: http://www.hyland.com.sg/

By the way, good on you for going green :-)

you said it is not fully furnished mah. take that extra cash to make it fully furnished loh.

A few agents advised that angmos prefer to buy their own furniture, mattresses, beddings etc, so it's better to leave that option open.

 

[cascadia]

Pls visit other zone except B n talk to the developer's sales staff n ask them about the buyers n y hv better understanding. Middle income M'sian do not like Zone B for own stay generally.:p

It is not like they do not like, it is totally out of their budget.,,

 

[RedsYNWA]

It is not like they do not like, it is totally out of their budget.,,

Actually its true. Town stayers like Taman Pelangi & Tebrau pple generally dont like to stay in Zone B. Its like Singaporeans who stay in the east, dont like the west or north..... Used to their own comfort zone i guess. Many Zone B local buyers had stayed in the west to begin with, like Tun Aminah & Perling areas...

Wow can rent out EL fully furnished semi-d at Rm15k...maybe can rent out my Nusa duta fully furnished cluster at Rm5k next time haha...

Am wondering if anyone here lives in or knows about Danga View condo. Its off the 'radar' I guess as prices are below 500K except for large units. My Malaysian friend who's moving to JB is asking me if its well maintained, she's looking to rent or even buy. Location suits her as she wants to be relatively near to both sides.

These are jobs reserved for Singaporeans by MIW, so kind of them okay?

I think that's just one rare case, average rental for semi-d there should be 9 to 12k.

A little thing that many may not know. I remembered reading something about solar panels which stopped me dead in the tracks installing them. Can't justify it.

Those photovoltaic cells in the solar panel do de-generate and lose their solar abilities. They need to be replaced every 10 years according to manufacturers of those panels. And from forums elsewhere, there are comments that you will see a dramatic loss of efficiency by the 6th year.

You will need to factor in these costs if one is serious about solar.

Panels can last >10 years. The inverters and batteries cannot.

Danga view has its pros and its share of cons, i won't comment here but years back, a bro already gave us feedback in earlier threads. It has finally gone up but still units can be purchased for below 500k. Not really for me though.

I will likely install solar or wind power generation devices only if i have a bank of batteries that can take over in the event of prolonged power outage.
