Just an update,
2 storey Clusters at the hills are selling above 930 000, and 3 storey above 1 million (interesting layout with backyard), I think the quality is better, they come with panic button and auto gate. All units at Fairway Suites have also gone up by at least 20k and if I am not wrong they come with panic button as well.
Hi Lastresort,
Your family bought a Super-Link in The Hills right? May I know the take up rate of terraces in The Hills? How many terraces did they release and how long did they take to sell all units?
Alitle update to BH, they start painting the wall n outlook from the last row showhouse unit row to the 1st row. Finally it getting completed soon =) yesterday i did see quite alot of sg car been to BH, anyone of them are from this forum?^^
I was rather surprised over the weekend that Horizon Hills has been infested with more and more funny characters. While attending a close friend's "House warming", within 1 hour plus this chap was riding a stupid 3-wheelers and creating noise pollution around the entire taman 4-6 times in just 1 hour.. hitting speeds of 40-60km/hour. The "3 wheeler" is around the same size as any 3 year old "3-wheeler" toy... so small but yet the acceleration and speed is almost the same as any motorbike.. I had to jam brake from 30km/hour to 0 km/hour when this chap who seriously think this is Horizon Formula 1 Circuit literally cut into my lane near the roundabout and continued his solitary race along Jalan Ampang (Formula) 1.
I was there too with friend of mine. We went there around noon in two cars. I saw few Sing cars too. When I reached there, the guard told me that the show unit was locked, the guard who supposed to be there went out for praying and he took the key with him. He also told me that one of the semi-d show unit (the bigger one - corner one) is sold !
Hi KittyMeow, Why wouldn't there be jungles in MY?Wah you really live under rock eh. Where got jungle?
Property: Nusa Idaman Precinct 8Shall we start talking about what property we buy/ intend to buy and 3 reasons why we buy it/ intend to buy and 3 disadvantages (if any)?
In this way, it may help us in making more informed decisions on purchasing property in IDR.
Eg
Property: Imperia puteri harbour.
Reasons: near Kota iskandar for safety reason
Near medini and with puteri harbour for potential capital appreciation.
15 mins from 2nd Link.
Disadvantages: no developments yet except for traders hotel and clubhouse.
Singapore live firing ground directly opposite the Johor straits.
Such info will help me a lot... Hope it will help you all as well...

I dint know Pasir Gudang Circuit has moved to Horizon Hills Circuit? Now in Nov 2011 we not only have Iskandar Open but Maxis Formula One Iskandar Circuit as well!
Cmon, Horizon Hills is a premium taman. Since when did it become a place for punks with their illegal soup-uped riding machines?? I hope the guards do something about this!
Hi everyone,
Does anyone have any information about the approval of a new future exit(interchange) on 2nd Link Highway connecting to Leisure Farm? (as mentioned by Sanur)
Is there a map showing the exact location of this future exit(interchange)?
Thank you.
Thanks for sharing DOJ, looks like a good contact to have in the event we need to go to Changi from Johor.For those who want transport to various airports, assuming you don't want to drive there and incur parking charges:
Found this on: http://www.alloexpat.com/malaysia_expat_forum/changi-singapore-to-jb-t39737.html
Same thing bro, we couldn't imagine paying RM650k for an intermediate unit in The Hills, so did more searching and found NI; corner unit at RM500k only... and still can have some balance to spend on reno. What was your original budget for the house?Thanks Bro for all the info. So happy to hear that you got two corner units. Actually I also got a chance once to snap a corner lot. But I backed out in the end because during that time, I thought it was too expensive to pay almost a million for a terrace corner lot and I could not convince myself to spend so much money on a corner terrace and the price of the intermediate terrace I bought in the end was already well beyond what I originally expected to pay. Glad to hear that there are so many tax deductions for the rental income.
Right now, my only concern is in case I want to rent out the house, how easy it is to rent out my intermediate terrace (which I bought at a price of about 800K) in the future and how I should set the rent to be able to get it rented out while at the same time getting reasonable rental income.
As long as you're happy with it, then ur mind can be at peace. That area is definitely more mature than HH/Bukit Indah side. But good thing is TGV is going to open soon in Jusco Bkt Indah, then we can watch movies cheaper than in SG. Are you planning to move in when it's ready, or is the place just as a weekend home?Yes, you are right...that's the one...on the way to JB city ctr from the NSHW...Opposite is Setia Tropika and after it fr JB City is Kempas(I think the one where one of the bros here quote that the MRT will be built)....is just 15 mins(estimate from there to CIQ in JB)...and hopefully with the new direct road to CIQ...it will be much quicker..
I think so far they have launch 2 princint only...but each princint consist of 3 phases (i think - I know Princint 11 is), hence you have 6 phases all in...
there is still a lot of empty land there...and it's going to be a huge development in the comming yrs...not sure when, ask the sales lady, she also dunno when they are going to launch the balance...but saw the master plan, got commercial development comming up, more high end launches and also dunno what civic area....overall they have quite a big parcel of development to complete..
actually was there over the weekend to complete the whatever documentation...saw a few other types of houses - Semi d and those huge 26x70 and 24x70 ...i would say pretty decent...but out of my budget intermediate is already >450k if with land....hhhmmm...
to me the location is ok - went to SP Setia via Austin Hills for lunch from the Dato Onn - I would say just around 5-8 mins drive (if I am not mistaken)...a lot of shops around Setia show office and after lunch fr there went to Tebrau Jusco for shopping...also another <10 mins from that area...hence pretty developed area with a lot of shops and banks..
my only dislike of the area are the roads condition....HH and Bukit Indah side is so much better...then again is a matured area...
anyway, decision made and happy with it as it is by far the most affodable vs the rest that i have checked out for a coner unit...
Hi KittyMeow, Why wouldn't there be jungles in MY?
Property: Nusa Idaman Precinct 8
Reasons:
Fast and near access from highway, 15 mins from 2nd link to home
Near to shophouses, Jusco and other banks/amenities
Supposedly the premier precinct in Nusa Idaman and still affordable, less than RM700k
Disadvantages: Different construction/completion rate in Precinct 8 could raise security issues
Nusa Idaman project is known for problems with overall security of its individual precincts
No direct ramp down to the highway going back to 2nd Link, need to u-turn at Jusco or take back roads

Yes, and idiots who let their huge dangerous dog breeds roam around unleashed and unmuzzled.
You just got to tell these buggers off. A degree of community policing is needed. Anyway got $$ doesn't mean got class, so in any given location there will be a few inconsiderate neighbours who are a nuisance. Which precinct btw?

due to Malaysia gov's flip flop policies in education and recent change. Science and math will be taught in Malay in Gov schools, you see many people put their kids in internation schools as these schools teach foreign curriculum and syllabus in English. There is a market for these international schools, but they also have a high percentage of locals.
But good thing is TGV is going to open soon in Jusco Bkt Indah, then we can watch movies cheaper than in SG.
not just education, public policies with regard to anything flipflop all the time. that's why it has conditioned johoreans to see before believing.
yonglip said:i think he mistaken la bro...that one more than RM1.5 mil i think..ceiling got small leak some more!...sold?!..
I am not surprised if the buyer is a local...nowadays i noticed johoreans are getting richer and richer...RM500k houses last time considered upper class for them..nowadays only middle class nia...
checkers said:Wow! That's great news ...Any idea when TGV is opening?
Isn't Iskandar supposed to appeal with lower cost of living and higher quality of life? With these exorbitant tuition fees won't it be better to receive education back in SG? There goes our plan of moving to JB, start a family, live frugally n let our children study in inexpensive International school while we supplement their education with moral teachings at home...sigh!
