So far, I use the NSHW and exit at the Adda Height exit to go to Cascadia.
No traffic jam and about 10-15min from the exit.
From cascadia, it is just beside Setia indah so about 3-5min drive I suppose.
From cascadia to tebrau city, its about 10min and no jam.
I think mount Austin area can also make use of the NSHW and via EDL to go Singapore without passing through Pasir Gudang highway.
My experience of bad jams are at tebrau highway and Pasir Gudang highway.
Not sure which Indah you refer to. In my opinion, the tebrau area, including Setia indah, cascadia and mount austin, would be quite fast to Woodlands via NSHW and EDL without any traffic lights.
Bukit indah on the other hand, is nearer to Tuas, which is less jam at the moment.
But I wonder how the people would react when the woodlands toll fee becomes higher than Tuas.
Definitely would see some shift of traffic from woodlands to tuas.
Hi PH - The total of Loan Stamping and related Legal Fee should be roughly 1% of your loan amount. This is after a discount of about 35% to 40% on the legal fee.
Thanks all for the reply. I have a shock when I ask for a quote and it come up to MYR18k++. Unlike Singapore the legal fees is $3500 regardless of loan Amt look like it is going to be more cost efficient to take equity loan on my existing property to find the Malaysian property. Still cannot believe it is more expensive than Singapore in S$ terms. Once again, Many Thanks.....

are you buying a resale property ? if not , developer usually absorb th legal free right ?
fournd that quite a lot of money is "gone down the drain" if one were to buy resale if property value is high .
brother, how about mount austin area compared to indah area. in terms of traffic, distance to causeway and amenities.
Absorb legal fee for S&P agreement but not loan.... So those intend to take loan, watch out...

Is stamp duty (1% of first 100k, 2% of next 400k, 3% of remainder) payable upon signing of S&P (sales & purchase agreement), or upon completion? This is for new projects.
Hi Brothers and Sisters,
I am looking at getting a landed property in JB. Preferably, the amenities include parks so that my kids can run around. I visited East Ledang last week but was disappointed that all properties are sold out.
Do you have any recommendations?
Best regards.
great input, i wanna hear more views from people who know about Austin-Tebrau-Indah-Adda-Dato onn area, there's so many townships there. =)

Bro , if you look a the list of forumers who buy properties in Iskandar , you notice that Indah ( Nusajaya ) take up almost 90% of buyer . There is something Singaporean like about this new found taman , a lot of people simply buy their dream home in Nusajaya like love in first sight , kind of hard to explain. It is just different kind of feeling you get when you visit the old JB city , and its surrounding tamans. I got a friend stay in Woodland area , but he buy Nusa Duta , he say he like it here. I am quite sure he can get around Mt Austin , Setia Indah areas as easily too ?

No offense bro, I've seen many comments about people being ignorant about Nusajaya and have the impression that it should be same as the old JB. It's because they did not go down personally to see the place.
Personally, I feel many Nusajaya buyers maybe ignorant about the New Tebrau area like Cascadia, bandar dato ONN, Adda heights, etc. When you exit NSHW at Adda Heights exit towards Setia indah and Cascadia, the roads are wide and new. There's much greeneries and a lot of room for future development. If Setia Indah is to Bukit Indah, then
Setia Eco cascadia is to Horizon Hills. You know what I mean....
From google map, the highway distance from tuas link to bukit indah is 21.5km.
The highway distance from woodlands link to NSHW (via EDL) Adda height exit is about 14km.
So I see a potential for this New Tebrau area which still has much land for future projects.
We can wait but I would project a price escalation when these are launched in future.
