    If it is indeed LH, then not worth buying at this price or even a bit lower.I think there are better buys out there.

    Jln Abd Samad area would definitely be more preferable to locals but I notice Singaporeans tend to buy in these newer areas rather than old JB town. Also distance to CIQ seems a big draw.Permas area is also known for criminal activities btw and has an industrial look.But I am told by a friend...

    If you're commuting to SG , this would be one of the more convenient locations . However I feel the area doesnt have the residential feel, nice ambience , so depends on whether that matters to you. Ambience may change though over time as there are many new developments and proposed changes for...

    Bukit Indah - The Address

    Do you mean from Woodlands? I don't think there is a straight bus from Woodlands or JB side CIQ to Bukit Indah. But there are CW buses from the Tuas side or Jurong East or Boon Lay.

    In time to come this area may have more buzz but the concept of an "International' mall, I was told a different theme for each floor e.g Venitian with gondola rides, just seems out of place to me. For now anyway. Am not saying this is a bad location, I just think its overpriced . The distance...

    With their balloting system , giving agents priority over other buyers in the queue and telling buyers they can back out with full refund, this is definitely possible, whether its legal its something else. Its not confined to oen agency, this is happening in the market. Authorities arent acting...

    Even with anchor tenant, there has a to be suffcient pull factor for people to go all the way there. As for agents, many Hutons agents and other Singaporean agents have been burnt , having to quickly unload units they booked before signing SPA, or just backing out . Their strategy is to book...

    I really wonder how a 'high end' mall with atas prices is going to make it in an area that doesnt have any high end housing. Also it is not a place that is worth going to, all the way, when there is nothing much else there. Right now, Tampoi is a place locals go to to shop as opposed to BI which...

    Water problem

    Serremban is very prone to water problems. My Grandma -in-law and uncles, aunties on hubby's side live there and we visit now and then. We have been caught in that predicament and couldnt even take a shower once. This is from way back like almost 20 years back. So there is a history to it. In JB...

    Newbie questions

    Hi, my close friend is thinking of bringing in her own maid when she moves to JB. Meaning she will source the maid herself. Is it possible to do the paper work oneself or does anyone know of an agency in JB that can help?My friend is a Malaysian so there should be no problem about eligibility.

    Renovation to your homes

    The problem is they are a smaller operation and I dont have much confidence in them after they did my measurements as they got it wrong and quoted me for 15 ft when my wet kitchen definitely cant do more than 10ft as 4 doors open into it- maid's room, dry kitchem, back door and bathroom.. When I...

    Hi, does anyone know if we need to get approval from MPJBT to do an awning that is not retractable but not secured to any common wall? Also are there any guidelines about how many metres setback we need from common walls?

    Locals would consider this a good location as it is a good part of the town centre. Locals arent interested in distance to CIQ unlike Singaporeans. This is where we will see divergent views on what a 'good location' is in JB.

They're are so fully booked that they can only install late Jan, or Feb, maybe even after New Year for new orders.There is a new company who just opend up in Tesco beside the previous Kubiq. They seem more free, price are also a bit lower than Classy. but...
