Hi guys, is there any website that we can check for Private Residential Property Transactions with Caveats Lodged in Malaysia or just JB like what we have through URA in S'pore? Or any website that monitor the latest transacted price of properties in JB?

Is there any way we can monitor developer progress for new developments through work progress monitoring system like what we have in Singapore through BCA?

Abang .. check this out http://www.rehdainstitute.com/research-a-resources/housing.html#MSIA_LAUNCHES
and doubt they have it like what SG is having..
Dun understand why make so much efforts to monitor the price...
Beri simple to buy one, just start from RM 500k.

EDL is crap, now new taman along EDL- northsouth highway, not yet completed, already heavy traffic on both morning and evening peak hour on both EDL and NSHW. the exit 255c is damn jam especially during peak hour knock off time. soon EDL will become "sloway" like tebrau highway in long run.

But still before than before lah, i think. Imagine passing through those 10 traffic lights along Tebrau Highway to get to Pandan Interchange during peak hour... Faint man... now, at least can skip all the 10 traffic lights liao. No fish, prawn also can.... Is that how you say it? haha

The Malaysian Price Index (2007-Q1 2011) for Johor terrace range RM104k to 120k !

Base on new property launch of >>>>> RM500k, are we buying something overpriced?

Where is exit 255c?

How about the stretch between ciq and permas exit during peak hour? Is it smooth or jam?

EDL is not crap la... is just an alternative route to bring you home and to your family.

Hi aangsc, no cherry trees or winery but there are strawberries and apple trees at least. Apples trees mainly in East Malaysia. One time, i shared with a bro from Kuching about apples but he was so adament that there are no apples grown in Malaysia at all.

Now a bubble is really forming in the JB condo market... These are near Mont Kiara (KL expat enclave) prices.

At this rate of price escalation, by 2014, JB condo prices will be just a whisker away from Singapore mass market condo prices when the 100k units of apartments come on stream in SG.

I may be wrong and this may be an exceedingly good bet. Point is, just be careful and double check calculations to ensure can hold for the medium term.

permas bridge traffic peak hour is terrible, slow traffic, try friday knock off time....

now EDL morning or evening time both direction also heavy traffic....

in long run.... seriously compare to coastal highway at nusajaya, really cmi....

Bigger units are not so easy to divest, esp those > RM 2m. I would advise not to over leverage on projects > RM 2m due to MYR high interest rate. Unless the MRT comes to Lido Boulevard area, I personally think making a decent profit on this investment may well prove challenging.
