When i wan to buy a house in JB , my family mem dun support me at all , like other naysayers keep saying negative things ....
Until i brought another sis to see , she kind of support me coz she seen it in her own eyes so she decided to help me talk with my mum as i am cpf rich not cash rich so i need to get some help from her ...
Now paperwork done , e rest are planning what to do in my house etc liao ....
ends up i only have 1 masterbed room n maid rm for myself, the other rooms are reserved for them but i am e only one paying .... : (

Confirm gone. Last went there about 2.5 weeks ago. Only 2 units left. If remember correctly, both are end lots and close to at least 700k

if my guess is correct, the remaining 2 end lots should be facing the stretch of low cost housing not?.

So we should buy all the materials to store now. Good hedging also right? Haha.... Ok ok, I know I should not had used te word "hedge", it's irrelevant, just saying ...

of courseleh bro - if they price it at 500++ for the new launch with same size as the old and bigger house...those who bought at that price around 700-800k will spit on the sales ppl leh!!!
These are all mktg plan...if not, the 2nd hand value of the place will plunge like hell!!

I think prices won't drop already - look at the cost of materials nowadays....my fren was sharing with me that he was asking a contractor to quote for renovating his house in KL ...and he commented why so expensive ..only tiling the front lawn of the house ....1st thing the contractor told him was materials prices all gone up!! Petrol, diesel all up, what do you think??? surely the rest will follow...so die die, house prices won't drop back to 200-300k level!!....the simple reno cost 20k...i told him, so small place only and will cost me 20k leh!! nevermind, he went to get a another quote....in the end also almost the sameleh!!!
- All, RENOVATION COST is not cheap anymore!!! Materials and labour are all very expensive already...what more development cost of the house such as these...
i think prices like these of 600-800k are the norm already.....if you dun get a landed, our next generation may not be able to afford it!!
but then if the whole world economy crashes....that another story lah!!

Bro, I'm not sure. I just walked in, asked some preliminary questions. The agent was a bit ya ya papaya, I was not a happy bunny, then I walked out and never looked back ...

600-800k the new normal?... I dont think so, not yet in Malaysia anyway as there is still abundant landed properties below 300k, everywhere.
Of cos not in these locations we're discussing here but if die die must get landed, there're still plenty of choices out there... just a matter of how far or how near.

We can form a club called "the incredible woodpeckers" that live, laugh and prosper in JB. Lol. Sure get attention :p

You reckon what would be a good time to go in to avoid the jams tomorrow?

I have the opportunity to do a 'kah' trip around a bit this afternoon. So I took these photos for fellow LFers :p

This is the famous spot.

Walking up this road

On the left is the famous house

The proposed exit from 2nd link

And on the other side, EL.

And on this very spot taking all the photos, I received full range both SG and MY mobile signals. The owner of this piece of land is lucky! No roaming charges that's for sure.

I like to wake up on a Saturday Morning hearing the birds chipping, and I can stroll to the garden. If lucky, can watch fireworks tonight!
