Nusa Duta - have went there couple of time last year, once at night & once at a very heavy rain. As it's located at low gound, saw flood there, but that's when it's still under construction which the drainage system is not fully function yet.
Laguna - went there 3 times, once at night....that's on last year when coastal highway not commence yet....found the place rather quite & deserted & eerie at night at that time. Understand future development potential is good, but there're also some uncertainty on how well & long it takes to materialise.
Design is nice, but think that's the only plus factor at that point of time.....now with highway linked.....another plus factor....
Can't believe that I just watched this.

Just a quick share why on we choose to buy showhouse.
It was a moment of strike 1 day when the wife and I thought, why don't we move to JB? We are regulars to JB every Monday.
So, the hunt for house began...
Our 1st choice was NUSA DUTA. coz it was the 1st property we met @ CIty square road show.
However, the already constructed units were fully sold out. The next phrase will only be ready in 2 years time. Something which the wife is not willing to wait.
We did think of subsales from Nusa Duta, but understanding that subsale houses are not being covered under any house defects from developer and meeting up with an owner who was not willing to drop his price by RM20,000. We decided to move on.
We been to other developments like Tanah Sutrea.. Their showhouse is RM1.6mil. It was really tempting considering this price we cant get even half of that 3 storey terrace house in SG. But 3 storey for the 2 of us seems alittle bit too scary...
I think if we move away from HH and ND area, there are some developments with showhouses ready...
So, yeah, when we chanced upon the showhouse. We fell in love with it the moment the developer show us. And the question was popped to developer within 5mins. "Tell me the price and how we move on from here.. "
So why we choose a showhouse?
Simple. Everything is there. It's a matter of convenience and hassle free.
The ID was simple which was to our liking. Lights were up and most importantly, furnitures are up too.
We just need a TV and we are ready to move in once all the paper works are done... Most importantly, renovations is being kept to the minimum and the wife and I can move it asap. Haha... =)
Having said that, I think we will still need to fix up a security alarm, cctv and auto gates.. OH ya, our aircon is no longer under warranty but we are fine with that. Wife and I are not so particular over the little issues. Most importantly, when u buy a house, it's a matter of how much u fell in love with it @ first sight. We did. My best wishes to all newbies out there who are still searching for that dream house of urs.
Ask sensible questions here and I'm sure the old birds will be more than willing to answer to u.
Bro,
My wise father told me once when I just started work..
The worst people in the world are politicians, lawyers and bankers....this statement is not 100% true, but when such people turn bad, they can be very bad..

Chief Wuqi intention to open this thread is to share and help singkie newbies to duduk di JB (live in JB). To be fair, tere could be some sincere newbies or season bros/sis, who could not find wat they want fm both main threads. I am well aware at times in the middle of discussion, we get carried away and end up "chit chatting" or discuss topic in the main thread when it should be discussed in the relevant sub thread. Therefore, it would be good if we stick to relevant threads when in discussion. Or else the second thread would end up like the 1st thread. Like rojak. Thanks to Kampong Chief, Crystal. I notice occasionally she would remind us to discuss in relevant sub thread.
Coming to ur above post. My opinion is if same old repeated questions come ur way, u may limit it to 3 (ur discretion). After tat, juz ignore those PMs. It would be good if u could post their nick here. Then we would know whether they are sincere in sharing or belong to those groups who hit and run. Otherwise by posting above, u put alot of us/newbies in anxiety mode. Macam witch hunt leh.
Last but not least, I would like to thank Chief Wuqi, u and those regular contributors. I am a singkie, still living in tiny red dot and I really cant contribute much as my knowledge of JB is "0". To those bros/sis, who had responded to my queries, I would normally award them with my Hi 5. To show my appreciation. For those who w/o points/powers, at least respond with a word of "Thank" in PM or here if ur queries were answered.
Terima kasih (TQ)
After seeing what leisure farm offers, one really know HH with bare units are not the best deals at all..
however HH has a good location and one can change anything he wants by having a good renovation.
As I am typing this , I saw the guard petrol the perimeters almost every 15min at this time.. Security is one of the main point for HH or leisure farm.. If there is any breakin, ha.. there goes Nusajaya..
I have dinners with some overseas philippinos and china Chinese guests yesterday.. One felt Singapore is like phillipines because there are so many philippinos.. The other felt Smgapore is china because there are so many china chinese.. Suddenly I understand why your nick is "whoami".. Because I also don't know whoami.. Am I Simgaporeans or global citizen? My country is the world? I am confused.. Who are you? Who am I? What is Singapore? Is it a country anymore? Are we just the walking ATMs?
This is really unacceptable!
If not for being in Jb, anytime I would get a bare unit to do it up, isn't that suppose to be ones dream house n not the "designers" dream house. Btw, I have changed most of the things.
Good observation on the nick. But iamme. I am still me. Don't forget me. We are singjopohorean.
Oh.. I mean if these powerful people turn bad, they can be very bad.. Of course there any many good lawyers or bankers.. Like hiliary clinton, Obama.. Wee Chu Yeow?
