    The rental market target in Johore is small and the "classier/richer" ones will get those high-end G & G Tamans. I have friends who rented out their landed terraces and besides the usual problem of delays in rent payments, the sight of the condition of the houses really breaks their heart. Not...

    Re: Investing in Nusajaya Spidey, to be honest, if you expect easy-to-rent + good rental for double-storey terrace property in this area and most part of Johore, I'm afraid you will be disappointed. But if you are buying it for retirement/weekend stay it'll be alright. Why don't you look at...

    Re: Investing in Nusajaya Spidey, for your budget of RM500k and amongst the developments mentioned, for a landed property, Tebrau area seems to be your best bet. Prices for landed around the Nusajaya has gone way up. You'll also be shocked at the prices for Senibong area.

    The difference is that Summons around Tamans are issued by the local town council, just like your HDB/URA - not easy for them to enforce the collection of fines whereas if you get the ones issued by their Polis Traffik, they will make efforts to hunt/haunt you for payment. But of course, you can...

    Having a good car audio system is a boon if you happen to get caught in a jam. Just count the number of songs played on CD to cross over.

    You need to show proof of income. Your CPF can see cannot touch/use for housing in Malaysia.

    Had come across agents who are greedy enough to turn down offers just so they can get more commission. For eg, owner will set a price to sell and let the agents mark up. So these agents will hold up the process to get more, not at all to the seller's interest.

    BY right approval must be sought for the state consent application before anything else, but well, this being Malaysia, "by right" isn't always the way they do things here. Got to push the lawyer, he has to get the job done before collecting his fees.

    For taps/mixers, you get what you pay. Personal experience - bought a brass coloured tap, tighten it and the next thing I knew, the threaded part broke inside the pipe and I have a gushing water fall....!!
