Bros, I was at taman Johor jaya last week for some personal stuff, near the bowling complex, saw a lot of shop lots there...then went to the net to search for shops for sale, and found a few in the region of 400k!
is this a good buy? I find the shops are a bit old but the price is really ok to me..and again there are a lot of Chinese doing business there and a market as well..anyone vested here, or can give comment if this area is a good buy?
Did some calculations, if 400k, pay 10%, loan 360k so Instal roughly 2k a mth...if rental can fetch 2k, then cover loan already...
Any comments on this area bros and sis?

Wah... i heard the safety is not too good around Johor Jaya

For those Bros and Sis who have got HH properties, in a legal document, I need to put my address there. If I have forgotten to write the name of precinct, will there be a problem?

After the tuas checkpoint, follow head in direction of KL & look for signboard that says SENAI. Once u exit SENAI, after a couple of KM there will be a JPO Signboard (it's pretty straight forward after u exit senai)

Cheers

I will add my 2 cents to that...at least 4 cents now.

Sure boh ? For me I think is quite unlikely for at least next 5 yrs . The two link is sufficient to handle the traffic if they operate at 100% all the time , most of traffic jam is caused by peoples not doing a proper job lah .

Some words that someone shared with me:

朱德庸
如果人只有梦想而没有勇气，那么梦想其实就只是空想。
If a person only has dreams but no courage to follow through. Then whatever dreams he/she has will always remain an empty dream.

有三个方法可以解决所有的问题。接受，改变，离开。不能接受那就改变，不能改变，那就离开。
There are 3 ways to resolve all the problems in this world. Accept things, change things or leave.
If you cannot accept it, then try to change it, if you have can't do either, then leave.

Thanks Crystal for the Happy Call recommendation.

Hi Spidey, i would not (as a matter of personal preference) go for Johor Jaya or Permas Jaya.

There is a signboard in brown color but is rather small, easily miss it unless you drive slowly and on the land next to the hiway shoulder. Rather, on E3, follow the huge green signboards pointing to Senai Airport, then you are less likely to miss the exit to JPO and the airport. If you miss the exit, you will come to the last toll gate before E3 merge with NS hiway. Then you hv to paynpay,making exit and reentrance of NS hiway to get back. So when you see a green signboard indicating 1km or 500m to Senai airport exit, best to change to the slow lane.

Hi, can someone provide directions to Leisure farm. After exiting Gelang Patah, where do I turn? Thanks.

Once u reach Gelang Patah town. Just drive on till u hit a dead junction, which is either turn right or left, u turn left. There are signage showing u to leisure farm, u will not miss it

Its the one at the interchange, opposite the macdonalds and beside bata shoe shop. Just a small simple counter. I think their rates are the best around the east area. No bargaining though.

I went today , but only find 1 bata shop near watson but no money changer...so i went to the one inside the gold jewelry shop and changed .
Rate is 243.20.
So there is another bata shop at interchange ? i am so confused...

Hey Sanur

U mentioned there is a clean and hygenic dentist in BI , which one is it ?
Any idea they operate till what time on sat ?

thanks

 

[crystal_tiong]

But that is if I get the 90% loan(is it easy to get?).
What about the legal fees and other stuff? Would RM50k be enough in your scenario? THanks

the loan rate depends how u nego with the bank , i told UXX , look , yr rate is not as fantastic as other banks , but if willing to loan me 90% , u will get the deal so I got it.
For me , abt RM54k including foreigner's levy.
My developer absorbed most of the legal fees etc , abt RM22k. if u buying subsale , then u have to pay a lot of money ....

 

[crystal_tiong]

Can you still find it in Singapore at 2 SGD?

can , i saw in bedok hawker this afternoon , there is $2 chicken rice ....
