Hmmm...might be a stretch when units of an identical size and high floors are priced at 7.5, 7.8 and 8 on propertguru.com.my. I suppose what I'm interested in is not whether they're available for rent, but whether there is any actual demand for rentals and if they meet the price level where...

By the way, has anyone heard any news on how Imperia rentals are shaping up...are units being rented and are prices meeting landlord or tenant expectations, generally?

Sooo glad you said that - I booked a unit over there too. Looked like an interesting design when I saw the model a few years back, now it's going up pretty quickly. Not sure if I am being a silly boy getting two condos 2km apart. At least Puteri is freehold, though.

Iconic PH is puteri cove, I suppose. What Medini projects do you regard as iconic?

Much appreciated FHBH12, I wasn't even aware of the change...! Shame on me :)

Aha... I see it's just the difference between old mortgages on BLR and new framework BR. Doesn't seem so bad after all, now.

Umm... I'm being offered from the Malaysia arm of an international bank a RM loan BLR +0.65% with no lock in. Deposit down 40% currently. I see others seem to be getting BLR MINUS. Are they trying to rip me off? On a positive side is return of weak RM. some mentioned being sad not to switch...

Oh, I do hope so! I have a unit at Meridin - which I was beginning to despair about. Last 12 months have definitely picked up in PH on weekends, I used to have the place to myself when I visited, no longer! Manufacturing pick-up is very welcomed. What do people think is a better investment in...

I was wracking my brains for the name of that one! That brings the number of units to 3,777 in just that little area. Tenants will literally be spoilt for choice. Think I saw someone say that only a 2,000 sq ft (i.e. somewhere North of RM2m) has a chance of getting appreciation, can see why now...

On weekends only! I've found it hard to see evidence of a buildup in commercial activity, named 'anchor tenants' etc for Medini. Is that because there are none, or have I missed a treasure trove of information online? Just looking for pipeline support of businesses locating in the area, to...

By the way, has anyone added up the total number of units around just the Puteri Cove area? By my count, Puteri Cove (987), Teega (1,292), Imperia (246), Pinetree (264) and Southern Marina (706) account for 3,231 units, which excludes the serviced apartments and hotels being put up. Quite a lot...

Southern Marina launched at RM1,000psf (RM950 with a 5% discount) within the last few months, so 800 isn't beyond the realms of possibility. They'll always be someone who is in a negative market looking to offload property. Sobering thing is that as Tekkun says, between 2012 and end of 2015 the...

Thanks for your thoughts btravelling! The only wrinkle for me seems to be that the definition of 'freehold' seems...malleable (i.e. you may be forced to re-sell leasehold to foreigners, or freehold only to Malaysians). Nothing seems set in stone there, but it did seem alarming news that this...

I'm not sure that what is happening in the Singapore property market can be defined in any terms as a 'crash'. More an orderly re-pricing...last time I looked prices were down 4%? Sales volumes are shrivelled, rental prices down (got mine down 20%), but sales prices are doing nothing...I know as...

Hi all, with the flame war going on about general Iskandar property, my question got buried! I am really interested in people's thoughts....PH Southern Marina a good project, or overshadowed by the bearishness on Malaysian property? Thanks :)

Interesting thoughts from everyone. I work in oil and ags, so agree with anyone who says Malaysian Ringgit weakness is not over. I didn't realise the MAS policy is to accomodate the MYR..I always thought it had a relative peg to the US$, with a basket of local currencies. If that is the case, in...

Hey guys, my first ever post to the forum! I bought at Southern Marina, top floor but one and it is well priced for a new launch with what will be a great view, whether or not other condos are developed opposite. It all sounds doom and gloom at the moment in this forum. I really don't know if...
