Horizon Hills and East Ledang are definitely exempted from this regulation. You drive around those HH houses and sometimes u see more Spore cars than Malaysia cars. Also when u walk around the neighbourhood, you see foreigners ( Africans, Pakistani, Americans, Angmos etc ). So if they say 20% foreigner in Horizon Hills, something must be wrong.

Also note that Nuda Idaman, Horizon Hills, East Ledang, these three developments are the "choosen" one from Putrajaya.. because of some reasons we all know best.

Not sure about HH and EL but Nusa Idaman definitely have foreigner quota. The sales staff there ever told me foreigner quota have been met for their terraces last time.
 
Re: Investing in Nusajaya

great idea, maybe we should all spam their email inboxes. Email to the management people. :cool: my neigbour was planning to sue the developer.

Tell your Neighbour not to sue la, time consuming, anxiety too n in Jb very difficult to sue. Waste time waste money.
 
Re: Investing in Nusajaya

Even in Horizon Hills where you pay a premium, rubbish collection is not a daily affair. My tenant just called and shouted at me to settle the rubbish issue as apparently, the rubbish collectors were missing in actions since last Wed or Thursday! Imagine the whole weekend when you had a party with your relatives or friends and rubbish are struck there not only overnight but probably over a few nights. The smell is terrible.

What can I do? Call up the in-charge and reminded him again and again until he is not picking up my calls but my normally placid tenant kept calling me while I am working in Singapore. We are not fussy people but if you cannot even collect rubbish everyday or once in two days, never charge a premium for the housing.
[/QUOTE]

Your tenant from which country? So fierce. Last time my place in SG rented out and leaking caused by upstairs neighbour dirtied my tenant's clothes, the tenant called me up and told me only, never shouted.

Yeah rubbish collection should be frequent enough, hopefully the JB rubbish collection company can improve on the standards for HH and the rest of the developments. In the mean time, may be you can consider to install a food waste disposer under the sink for your tenant. Saw it at the home fair recently, the cheapest model selling Rm1.1k. Can grind the food waste to small pieces and just disposed away by water.

Re: Investing in Nusajaya

Anyone heard of dolphin vacuum cleaner in Jb? I got o e in Singapore which I finds it very good for clearing air (room) n wanted to get one for Jb house. Thanks
 
Re: Investing in Nusajaya

This is actually Genting's grand idea. All the tour buses that ply the route between Singapore Universal Studios (Genting) and Malaysia Genting Highlands will want to make this the new stop over. All the tourists visiting both Gentings will come to Genting's Johor Premium Outlet store. Also not forgetting it is located very near Senai Airport and North South Highway which will lead to all parts of Malaysia. People from other states can come here easily.

Yeah Genting property arm has large housing development in Kulai area nearby to this premium outlet location. When I visited their show house last year, the premium outlet was cited as one attractive point for their housing development.

The food waste disposer is Ariston brand, understand it can grind fish bones too and the food bits will be grind and just flush through the drainage. Ariston and Signature Kitchen had a booth at the home fair recently. Sorry no further contact becos I look see only.

Oh if you are into gardening, you may also want to consider a food decomposer bin, saw it at a shop outside Sutera mall, selling at Rm2399. Can convert food waste to organic fertilizer, no smell produced.

Not really spam lo, just make sure by doing so, all department knows about it n no cover ups for one mistake for not acting on. But must craft the email nicely .
 
Re: Investing in Nusajaya

i am really curious who is behind super325.com! this person seems to know the development of Johor at the tip of his fingers. some of these info cannot be found even on the net and he posts about them. alla salute!

I'm curious too, do you think he/she visits this thread??

Hi, investor, it's type B with land 6400 sqft n bu. 5845 sqft .

Hi Sanur and Jogs1,

Thank you so much for sharing, it helped me a lot on the comparison of prices for LF, LH and HH.
Wow RM3.2 mil for 6400 sqft land and 5845 sqft bu, that seems more expensive than HH The Hills bungalow without golf couse view man.
Looks like it is much cheaper to buy land and build own bungalow, but you don't get great views and a nice overall environment due to the Rojak designs.

There is no foreigner quota (limit on foreign ownership) for EL and HH.

Any machine which can convert waste food into bio-fuel and sell for profit? :D

Horizon Hills:
Hi, are you sure there aint anything good that I have said about HH? You may want to read and re-read all my previous postings, esp my comparisons between East Ledang and Horizon Hills. Actually I am not the only one who criticizing HH's rubbish collection delays and their various defects. Many forummers come here with their comments on the defects and lousy finishing. I speak the truth even though I have investments in it. This is a fair world. You and I are free to give comments. I have praised the investment values of HH many times in this forum until there are people who actually PM me and asked if I am a salesman from HH called Chris. Then you are another chap who come and tell me I am the Salesman from other property developments because I have been criticising HH.

All I can say it. Be truthful in what you are commenting. When HH finishing is lousy, just say so. My neighbours spent RM 300+ K on the renos alone and now his house in HH looks so much different after the overhaul. If you wish to hear only the "good things", please read the Straits time daily.

Please point out where i am hiding the truth? If you never read the posts in the first place, then say so.

Not really, only the initial ones then basically i saw only otherwise. Happy to be corrected.

Please direct or point me to one post i made which i said HH finishing is better or top notch compared to East Ledang. I can show you at least 10 posts which i already said HH finishing is lousy and there were leaks, etc. You answered my question with another question. Till now, you never answered any of my questions directly. I asked you about your experience with EL but well, other forummers here have shared about EL already.

Many folks have spent more than 300k on renovation in most developments, it doesn't mean that the more one spent, the worse the development is. 300k is starting to be below par for what most people spend and that includes many developments.

I have 3 tenants to date living in HH, none of them have ever shouted at me (till now) and especially not for rubbish collection.

Someone here ever mentioned that in terms of psf, Leisure Farm is really more expensive than EL and HH.
After calculating the figures provided by various forumers, I found that this is really true.

Comparing in terms of PSF price among the 3 below, LF is the most expensive. HH and EL is almost the same.
1) EL's bungalow with swimming pool
2) HH The Hills's bungalow with golf course view (no swimming pool)
3) LF's bungalow (not sure about view and swimming pool)
 
Re: Investing in Nusajaya

HH, please see below, i talked about defects and praised other developments including EL and other developments here.

I even pointed out before when i saw security guards sleeping, someone driving dangerously or empty houses has tall grass or where we felt it was unsafe and higlighted, etc. I even asked BigFatFish to share more name and shame the agent and talk about the unit.

Is this endless praise of HH? Please post where i ever said quality of finishing HH is better than EL. Some of the forummers on this page long enough would remember i did a ranking couple of years back of developments here.

http://sammyboy.com/showthread.php?35746-Living-in-JB/page19

No balcony for a some of the units so need to do your own

Re: Investing in Nusajaya

nope closer to senai airport, dunno why put in (no birds lay egg land) but i suspect they want to do a 'Tung Chung/HKG' version.

Kulai is going to be the next big thing after this and already on the way if according to IRDA's plans, land prices has already appreciated there from what i understand.
