    Condo Supply: Total no. of units in the pipeline.

    I would add that density is also a factor. Some projects are high density and some are not. If you have a lot of units in the project on a small parcel of land, not only do you have more competition in renting out but its also more uncomfortable living there.

    A Singaporean's guide to living in Thailand

    Lovely pics. I have a relative considering buying a holiday home in Pattaya for own use ( as retirement home in the future) and possibly rental. I would appreciate advice from anyone who has made such an investment. Is now a good time to go in and does Pattaya have potential for yield as well as...

    Condo Supply: Total no. of units in the pipeline.

    Hello, I am going by what I see on Propertyguru. The average unit of this size is asking 2K ( so I conclude they will settle fro a bit less) and some are asking as low 1800. Likely lack of public transport and malls is a cause as condo dwellers usually look for these.But for own stay its nice, I...

    Renovation to your homes

    Am sure if you ask around or drive around you will see agencies that offer cleaning services near enough to your place. The BI agency doesn't do Zone A.

    Condo Supply: Total no. of units in the pipeline.

    Welcome. May I ask how big is the unit and how much is it psf? You may want to benchmark with neighbouring projects. Fyi, I recently backed out( just this month) from a bumi release lot in Sky Gardens Setia Tropika. It was a high floor unit( abv 15th) going at 3XXpsf. A 3 bedroom unit, price...

    Medini community

    Medini has another advantage, there is no minimum floor price for foreigners. I think in time to come this factor will make Medini more resilient especially for the smaller units.As for the LH factor, I understand in Singapore also initially people found it hard to accept 99 but now other...

    Iskandar Residences @ Medini

    I have a Flexi account with HLB and this hasn't happened. But in my case its not for this property. I have this account for 2 other properties, for IR I didn't take a loan. Which bank is this? Perhaps it differs from bank to bank and you should speak with them about these 'hidden'charges.

    Renovation to your homes

    Hello, there are agencies that offer these services and also private individuals who might drop leaflets into your letter box. But most wont want to travel too far. Which area are you in?There is an agency in Bukit Indah that I know of but they don't want to do areas that are too far off e.g...

    New developments to share

    You will be surprised but in some neighbourhoods like Bukit Indah, many locals running businesses not only splurge on houses that cost well over 1M Ringgit but they also do extensive renovations and extensions amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars. These are purely Malaysian families...

    Renovation to your homes

    From my experience , it differs from contractor to contractor and also depends on the type of job.E.g for carpentry they usually require higher deposit earlier as the cabinetry is custom made. It also depends on yoru relationship with the contractor concerned. In a few cases, when they have done...

    Iskandar Residences @ Medini

    There is a show gallery on site but it was closed as I was there on a Sunday. I wonder if they have launched the residential or are launching the shop offices first. I think there will be 5XX residential units.

    Iskandar Residences @ Medini

    There is a big integrated development right next door, The Volt. Also 1 Medini is on the other side together with a row of shop offices, so I think it will be quite vibrant when it comes together in a few years time.:)

    I dont know about now but about 2 months back they were still marketing.They couldnt find enough Malaysian buyers so I was told they had applied for exemption from the 1M condition on grounds that it was launched last year.YOu could check with the Bukit Indah office.

    Setia Tropika community

    SP Setia assured me that they will make sure the 'release' is done in a proper manner, changing the status of the unit.But anyway, I am not keen to proceed given the poor rental potential. Moreover they are withdrawing the 10% discount they originally offered us. I believe there will be lots of...

    Setia Tropika community

    If the unit receives bumi release, I understand it becomes no different from the other units in terms of status.But the price is so far from the 1M mark that sale to foreigners is a non issue. However, I have decided not to go ahead as I checked the rental prospects and found that on...
