    Good on you, Rosnyus. Nothing beats taking ride there to check it out. As to which one is better, it still boils down to your family preference in terms of location, feel and budget, very personal! Good luck....

    I like Wuqi last statement - "I don't waste time worrying about tomorrow, I just make sure I have done my due diligence today and tomorrow will take care of itself." Very wise step. Most worry too much about tomorrow and didn't do enough today. Wrong step! Make use of what you can do today...

    Agree with your comments. I guess my point was about taking a longer term horizon, property which seems expensive today will sound cheap in say 5 to 10 years. I was refering to the figure of 1000 psf as a matter of reference. Your point about buying 700 psf condo instead of 1000 psf is...

    1000 psf seems expensive today but I am very certain when we look back in year 2020 (not too far away but far enough), it will be a totally different picture. I am not sure how many of you remember those days when S$1000 psf was unimaginable.....People were saying siow liao, property sure to...

    Hi Rosnyus, Totally agree with Dfiris comment below. Personally, a lot people had a wrong approach on buying properties. This is unlike buying stocks from the stock market. Landed property will never ever get cheaper unless we are hit with another major crisis. This is simply because we have...

    Hi Slash, Suggest you be more specific on your requirements then, perhaps some of us can help to point you to the right direction. Otherwise, you can be shooting everywhere and very frustrating if you are not familiar in going around. For example, whether you will be traveling using Causeway...

    I am sure some of you might have seen this before by BBC and I find it rather interesting to review some of the comments made some time last year. Since then, we seen the realisation of Johor Premium Outlet, Legoland Malaysia and Indoor Theme Park. Personally, I find the development made thus...

    Personal properties for sales - No agents please

    Landed and condo is not an apple to apple comparison even with the same build up area. Some ppl prefer condos because of facilities and security. At EL, you are also getting these! Same price, bigger build up and landed. To me it's a no brainer. Cheers N

    Totally agree.....Same principle as "if you keep looking back, you can't move forward". You will forever feel victimised and buying something more expensive than your neighbours. Or the feeling of "I should haves......" As an investor I have a principle, I dont care how much you bought it for...

    My personal opinion: The so called part-time agent comments were mis-leading and incorrect as pointed out by Bro IR. Whether or not his post should be deleted, this is entirely the prerogative of our moderator. Let's leave it to him to do his due diligence with respect. Cheers N

    Thank you Bro IR for the information. Some of you would have also realised that the number of people browsing this particular forum has increased from the usual of 100 ppl (in the evening) to 250 ppl at some days recently. I am sure the publicity (in the news) on Iskandar/Nusajaya coupled with...

    I have personally experienced a valuation difference of 35% from different bankers who use different valuer. It depends on how aggressive the bankers/valuers are. It doesnt even matter if you have a proven transacted case in hand to substantiate it. Sounds a little crazy but that's a fact.

    Dear Bro Faries, Thank you for sharing your priceless experience. I can certainly relate to your circumstance as I also have kids at exactly the same age group except my eldest and youngest are 1 year older than yours. Most of the parents (who have older teens) would almost need to find an...

    Hi Valdez, I am not sure if the access is critical to you, if it is I would suggest you insist to see the approval given. Pardon me for my scepticism as I have been through the exact disappointment. LF was supposed to be my first property in Nusajaya (2 years back) but it turns out to be...

    Hi Valdez, If you dont mind sharing, where did you get the confirmation from? Sorry to say that I have been given the same information 24 months ago but none of it is true. Hence, I am a little more sceptical until some authority confirms it and it has been published by Mulpha International (I...

    Disagree with what you post below as it only reflects how you think. I dont think the bungalow buyers are as stupid as you believe they are. Hopefully you wont be a buying a bungalow at some stage....

    Re: JB CBD Area Properties (Sky88, TwinGalaxy, Summerplace, Skysuite, Paragon etc) I have been a victim of bad developer that has gone bankrupt in my early days. But this didnt stop me from purchasing properties. I have to say, I will only be dealing with BIG and reputable developers only, no...

    The investment thread (Finally)

    Hi Crystal, Gold is a good investment only if you take a long term view and when you have spare cash to put aside. This certainly not the kind of investment where you will be monitoring year in year out! Buy enough with your spare cash! So, no need to time the market will be my humble opinion...
