As for the vast land price difference between the Danga bay n PH land deals,
its important to note the date time differences. So far there are no PH land deals
after Danga bay hit near RM1k psf. So its still kinda of early to judge.

I am not sure of the guidelines for Danga land deals, but for PH, land buyers got
to commit to the development timeline of 2 years, which takes alot of commitment
and investments.

Must be per plot ratio in this case.

when u say RM334, do u mean per plot ratio ?

 

[PuteriWorld]

There is no need for Pcove to sell below RM 1m when almost all units above 1m

Just got info from agent today PH residences obtained approval to sell to foreigners units below 1mil, any thoughts?

Can somebody give some advice.....

Puteri Harbour (Puteri Cove)vs Danga bay (Aquaint Residences).

which one is better? since my BIW @ danga bay has gone...

Wow, Dongfangmeiren , you are very active and start looking for your replacement sea-view condo after the BIW dream become a nightmare !!!

I am too depress to visit any Iskandar property talk anymore...:(

 

[BlackTiger]

Hi DongFang , joke aside...between Puteri Cove and Aquaint Residnces , Puteri has the edge.

Among all Puteri Habour project , Puteri Cove is nearest to the private marina. Tier 1 view of the marina.
Teega, Encorp ,Imperia are on the inner part of the area and away from the marina. Of course,Puteri Cove has the most expensive price psf.
The only one likely to compete will be the Robert Kuok project across the marina.

Puteri Harbour under the Nusajaya, is more organise in the infrastructure masterplan and develop from a green field.

At Danga Bay, after Brunsfield (BIW ) drop their project,there isn't a outstanding project that stand out in term of design ,quality of build & prime location.

Bora from Tropicana look good, but it is a matter of time ,their view will be block by BIW version 2.0 ( God know what will happen to that land or what will be develop on the former BIW location.)

Aquaint plot is much smaller ,so facilities will be a little lacking. Of course they boost of about their strength of a Singaporean developer and architect.
There are only 4-5 units per floor , giving a certain level of privacy.

That my humble opinion.

Thank you for your opinion.

I am buying for retirement, PH environment is more condusive, plus there is a ferry CIQ, but the price is getting higher.

At the begining of last year (March), Teega still had some left over marina facing units, I was quite tempted, but ultimately chose BIW danga bay and it turned out to be a bad decision.

The developer of Aquaint Residences is a JV between IWH and a Singaporean company, but seems like IWH has a bigger share. After the BIW matter, I don't have much confidence on IWH.

Furthermore, Aquaint is too near to Country Garden......I don't like.

My gut feel, BIW version 2.0 will be a Chinese Developer......................

Will wait for UM land and Rober Kuok's project, and see what's their pricing......

 

[PuteriWorld]

Don't think they will dare to sell more expensive than Puteri Cove as the govt curb is still in force and people are still trying to get used to it. But I understand that top facing marina and nearer to Singapore could hit RM 2000psf as there are marina view and sea views.. Best of both worlds. I was told by an agent that many buyers for own use are looking to buy those very upper floors at Puteri Cove for RM 1800psf and higher depending on size.. These are the units which were the first to sell out at very cheap rate of RM 1500psf.

Huawei to open centres in Nusajaya

BEIJING: Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, will open its Regional Data Hosting and Logistics Centres in Nusajaya, Johor, within the next two to three weeks.

Scott Sykes, vice president, head of International media affairs, said it would be operational once some tax matters are resolved.

The Regional Data Hosting Centre will be located in an office space of at least 10,000 square feet, while the Regional Logistics Centre will occupy a warehouse space of at least 80,000 square feet in Nusajaya.

Huawei Technologies (Malaysia), which has received the Authorised Economic Operator, or AEO from the Malaysian government, signed an agreement with
Khazanah Nasional last October to establish the centre.

The data hosting centre will cater for data needed for services, while the logistics segment will serve as the shipment hub for the company's equipment in the region.

"Equipment manufactured from other parts of the world will be distributed to half a dozen countries like Singapore and the Philippines from Nusajaya," Sykes
said.

It was reported earlier that the logistics centre will have a cargo value estimated at US$300 million.

The centre is expected to handle about 1,500 containers annually and shipped through the Port of Tanjung Pelepas, Sykes told Malaysian media here covering
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's visit to Huawei's brand new exhibition centre at its sprawling research and development hub.

He said Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei had briefed Najib on the company's global and local businesses, while giving a commitment on its future in Malaysia.

The R&D centre at the Zhongguancun Environmental Protection Park, about an hour's drive from here, has a workforce of about 10,000 people, including
hundreds of doctorate holders.

Huawei, which posted US$40 billion revenue last year, has over 70,000 product and solution R&D employees, comprising more than 45 per cent of its total workforce worldwide.

It has set up 16 R&D centres in countries that include China, Germany, Sweden, the United States, France, Italy, Russia and India.-- Bernama

Its quite clear that what Singapore cannot offer, Iskandar can offer much more. Those nay-sayers who have discouraged me from buying into Iskandar since 2007 are now sucking thumb and many are still discouraging people from buying up Iskandar. I am not saying entire Iskandar will flourish but certain developments such as Puteri Harbour, Sunway Iskandar, Medini etc will reach another level above Singapore in a decade or so. Lets wait and see

Now I really regret saving some bullets in 2007 when these nay-sayers kept discouraging me from buying. I should have use my coffin coffers to buy more properties back then! But compared to these nay-sayers at least I am much better than them as I have purchased a few and sold a few to reap in some money though haven't reach a million Singapore dollars.

Good news for Nusajaya.

Well Done!! U already did a fantastic job, better than sinking your monies in Singapores suburban 99yr bew launches which costs $1700-1800 psf.

Its quite clear that what Singapore cannot offer, Iskandar can offer much more. Those nay-sayers who have discouraged me from buying into Iskandar since 2007 are now sucking thumb and many are still discouraging people from buying up Iskandar.

[PuteriWorld]

Anyone who thinks that the prices now for Medini, Sunway Iskandar, PH etc are absurd should take a weekday off to drive around and see for yourself. Whatever Iskandar Malaysia can offer, Singapore just cannot do it. I cant blame the govt.. the nearest Singapore has is a Tuas but then it will be infested and polluted ( it already is ) once the Mega Port opens. Iskandar Malaysia is still very very cheap for overseas businesses who want to set up shop. In a decade or so, I expect Iskandar ( Medini ) to have its own economy and residents will just walk to work within the region instead of flooding into Singapore and facing the horrible jams

The horrible jams in both checkpoints only indicate one thing whether you like it or not, that Singapore cannot handle a simple congestion. It reflects badly in the administration who pays themselves a million a year

 

[cow138]

To be fair if you had invested in Singapore from 2007, I think the returns would be even higher at a lower risk.
Johor during that time had a higher risk factor

 

[PuteriWorld]

To be fair, I also invested in Spore about the time when I invested in Iskandar. For every RM 1 million profit I earned in Iskandar, my spore property gave me about S$300,000. More or less the same but I feel safer in Singapore of cos. Its just that Singapore properties price have reach so much peak that people are whining and complaining so I don't believe in the next 10 years, it will shoot up drastically again

I think MNC will still set up base in either SG or KL. As for iskandar, MNC may only shift their supporting business, branch...etc but I don't see they will shift their core operation here.

Labour and space intensive SME and MNC will move such operations over. But the high tech/banking sectors will stay in SG one.....No critical mass for such operations in Iskandar for at least 5-10 years.

 

[FHBH12]

Talents ones are smart enough to cross over to earn 2.6x more for the same job.

 

[PuteriWorld]

The best will be a technician who is paid S$2000 in Singapore but paid RM 4000 in Medini or a factory in Nusa Cemelang etc. He would surely choose the RM 4000 because he don't have to face the horrible jams. '

Slowly but surely, the MNCs will set up shop. I give them up till 2030. In fact I already got business associates who are borrowing aggressively in Sing dollars and investing in Iskandar hoping to invest long terms ( Target Year 2030 ). They said even if price never go up, they can use it for themselves. But one thing they already know is that Singapore factory prices are never dropping a lot and the population is sure to increase. No 6.9 million also got 6 million

Talents ones are smart enough to cross over to earn 2.6x more for the same job.

Any news on the Estuary launch? Was it fully sold out?
