Best JB condo

[KPO_SAHM]

I just want to gently warn, buy Liao when your money stuck there, hard to recouple, then you beg for mercy.

My sister is one of them Bought one 5+years ago at Iskandar projects (2 nd project , see view). A few of her friends bought the unit too. One of them is a Malaysian . He bought penthouse. My sis now kanna stuck. 3 beded. About the size of sink maisonette. Can't sell high, ringgit depreciating, rental damn low.....

Out of many cases only one of my friend managed to recouple some money. He is unable to offload a white elephant. His lawyer there then offered to buy over at half of the price he paid and he LL has to agreed. Imagine half price plus the depreciation of RM.

its in RM not SGD

in rm ah..think maybe near the 2nd link have better chance.

within 15mins drive from jb kastam (eg pelangi, ksl) abit hard based on what I have seen at the booths. i was looking at the condo opp ksl space residency 2br from rm500k+. very high floor was rm650ish last year. think all sold already. this project price is higher because of proximity to kastam and is probably one of the tallest project near jb town.

further in like mt austin, johor jaya, permas jaya 30mins drive away w/o jam maybe can explore...

Yes. Even my Malaysia said condo is poor in maintenance after a few years. Nice to look in the beginning......Tats why Malaysians not many would go for condo

Actually majority of the condo buyers are still Malaysians but not those overpriced properties~

They have very low entry criteria to buy a property~ developers would absorb legal, stamp duty & other fees for new launch, which make cash down payment really low for them, as long they can secure loan~ many just rent out their units~ some bought 2 or more units to operate as Airbnb~

Good maintenance one are probably at KL~

Yes . My sis in law who is Malaysian also has a unit there. 20+ years PR refuses to be sink citizen


kL is better cause there are international companies. Have expats too.

PC is still the best. as phase 3 and 4 coming developer must maintain phase 1 and 2 units properly if not who will buy

I saw a utube video featuring a condo in KL. It has a gym like fitness first size and aircon facility with sofa for those WFH.

Tip I will give. If you have good JB friends ask them. They know which fenced up landed estate there have good security. But my advice is still just rent. Do not buy, you will beg for mercy later.

I heard even HH solid double layer security also kana broke in. But that was covid time. I am at BI. So far so good. Strong mgmt committee. MF also quite prompt in payment. Very important

I can only repeat what my JB friend advice. He has two units in that fenced up. Still have break in but very few. The security personnels are changed regularly.

Agree with many stating the risk of foreign property investment.

Rent at JB still plausible.

Really is buy if u got extra cash don't mind to throw in case.

If really want convenience to shop at JB might as well just hoot any condo at Woodlands. Direct bus to RTS mrt.

Especially those with young kids why will risk live in JB just to save some money.

Now still got have below 1M with 2br. Singapore Property still safer to guard your hard earn money lah.

I dont know which is the best but i think the most expensive is the Astaka

 

[Jdm4ever]

do not buy jb properties.

the price keep dropping, rm keep dropping .

till now i dont know any1 make any $ yet, i only know of people who cant sell , or people who sell & los alot.

if u wan retire there, just rent.
not happy change house.
buy for what.

Frankly G&G precinct quite safe. My Malay neighbour house dont even have iron grill. He said look like prison. Just original glass sliding door. The other chinese neighbour rear dog, iron grill and installed alarm. So for latter is 5 layer of security.

Astaka, i have a unit there u interested ? but this project strictly no airbnb though, you can be neighbour w their agong

Get some insider's advice is the best. But resale to break even will not be easy.

Just sharing a condominium near RTS that I visited recently.

this one is sky/setia 88 ? moi condo opp nia in your first pic

 

[inmyopinion]

There are always X% who buys because people buy "i' also want to buy because scared lose out.

Some also listen to news.. RTS coming, mediacorp actor/actress go buy, join telegram/whatsapp group.. and go buy.

Lets say bought at 800k. Sold at 1mil. In the eye of the authority, thats profit 200k. Depending year you pur and sold, u may nid to pay tax after disposal of unit. Furthermore after conversion to S$ u may incur loss in exchange.
