    Re: causeway link bus Haha, actually Sam's reply considered quite 'courteous' liao... but anyway, for old-timers who know his chao-kuan, these days he seemed to be a changed man, judging from his recent posts elsewhere, almost unrecognisable... full of praise of PAP, shocking, haha!

    Crystal Tiong, Happy Birthday! Hope you one year older, one year wiser.... Dont quite understand why you jumped at Lord Aragorn for talking about Straits View? So what if he is an agent..., if he is, in the first place? Agents cannot say anything here meh? Everyone here naturally has own...

    Oh, thought Senibong Cove is near to Leisure Farm! Will check it out, thanks. I usually take 2nd Link, as I try to avoid the city jams, so not familiar with the East part of JB. Btw, does anyone here have a few JB property agents names to recommend? Looking for someone who's reliable...

    Thanks! I'll look into these names in these couple of days as have free time. NI was the 1st Taman that I came across when I first started looking around last year and was quite tempted with the semi-Ds near to the wooded area but in the end, I opted for condos and shoplots as I'm looking at...

    Anyone has an opinion on the properties on the East side of JB? Apart from Straits View which Bro Aragon (?) has been recommending (frankly very nice!), any other properties there worth considering, specifically with a possibility on where the 3rd bridge or tunnel may be? I have a feeling...

    This chap is really FAR FAR FAR player, keep for years also wont drop their prices, prefer keep empty than sell lower... Must salute them sometimes, really DEEP pockets... But dont like them because they buy freehold but sell 99yrs... knn.

    Why do Ah Nehs live in Condos while Ah Tiongs live in HDB ???

    I totally agree with one of the bros, it is a FACE thing for these India Indians. My company used to have 7-8 ah nehs few years back, doing coordinating and regional support job Pay is so-so, maybe 4-5k level but knn, all except for 1 are staying and renting in condos! I ever asked a few of...

    I believe the HDB rule is ... if you still have loan and not yet completed MOP, then you cannot buy any private property, whether locally or foreign (eg Malaysia)... Best you check this clearly to avoid future complications... not worth the risk if you run afoul.

    Thanks for asking what I wanted to ask but always forgotten... and thanks BSeri for pointing the way. I think I should be able to recognise the way next time as ventured there before, except that I probably took a wrong turn somewhere. Anyway, petrol is (still) relatively cheap, haha (but...

    Frankly speaking, I'm beginning to get more than a bit concerned with the volume of properties that is coming on-stream in Nusajaya, not to mention IDR... At current price levels, (>500k minimum for non-Malaysians), it is no longer considered "cheep cheep" and with all these seemingly...

    It sure looks like most of Medini will be leasehold. Those folks at EL and LH should be very pleased with their FH properties as theirs should be about the closest to Medini.

    Ok thanks. Overall indeed positive news as it shows robust and sustained investor confidence... though I wont be considering leasehold in Malaysia when freehold is widely available, but thats just me.

    Been speaking to some friends about Nusajaya and a British friend mentioned that her niece has just gotten a teaching position (2 years contract) at Marlborough College, seems the young lady will be moving over some time in August 2012 to start the semester soon after. Apparently there was a...

    Agree. Definitely a bit stretching it on a single income +3k... 2houses, 2cars, 1kid, parents, etc... need to have some buffer, mate.
