A Visit to NusaRhu

We were there for a good friend’s housewarming, couldn’t resist taking some photos of this rather new development. Nusarhu is located in a new area of Shah Alam, beyond Bukit Jelutong. It’s in the same vicinity as a clutch a few other developments, namely, Cahaya SPK, Kayangan Heights, Sunway Kayangan, Perdana Heights.

It’s not as far as most people think, but it’s a bit complicated to get there, and it is a relative new area with not much facilities at the moment. As an incentive, property prices are very cheap to entice the crowd, something Puchong was about 10 years ago. We can foresee massive growth in the same time span.

Enjoy the pics.

Poll: Service Apartments Above Shopping Malls

Filed under: Uncategorized

You’ve seen the concept before, a serviced apartment (or condominium), built on top of a shopping mall. Usually, they’re found in the city centre or dense commercial areas, to take advantage of the convenience of services and retail outlets ‘at your doorstep’.

They usually come with a commercial title, and are sized smaller or studio units to target the young, urban and mobile crowd.

So the question is, how do you feel about the concept of Service Apartments Above Shopping Malls?

Do you think it’s a great concept that will bring better than average returns to the investor? Are you looking to buy one of them yourself?

Or do you think it’s a concept that does not suit you at all?

Have your say and vote. Please only vote once, and tell all your friends to come here and vote, too. This poll will run for one week until 31 March 2008.

The CapSquare Residences, KL (Capital Square)
Impian Meridian, USJ1
K Residence, Jalan Ampang
Kuchai Avenue, Kuala Lumpur
Pavilion Residences, Bukit Bintang
Pelangi Damansara Sentral, Damansara

The Simpsons’ House in the Real World

Filed under: Uncategorized, General

Here’s something cute for the fans of the TV series The Simpsons.

Someone built an near exact replica of the Simpsons’ house in Springfield, with th matching interior right down to the cartoon coloured scheme. You can see the pics here.

I wonder how many episodes did they watch over and over again to get the details right?

Holiday Greetings From Property Malaysia

Filed under: Uncategorized

We would like to extend a belated Aidil Adha greetings to our Muslim readers, and an early Christmas greetings to everyone.

The holiday stretch has seen most of us here away, so it has been a pretty slow December at this blog. But we are definitely looking forward to a busy year next year for properties around the city and Klang Valley.

Take care everyone, and have a great weekend…

Gives a new dimension to the phrase ‘between a rock and a hard place’… Anyone fancy living in this home? Kind of leaves little room for renovation…!

Poll Results

Filed under: Uncategorized

Last week we ran a poll with the title:

Would You Pay More for Awesome Landscaping in Your Development?

for one week, and it has since concluded. We received a high number or respondents, 117 in all. The results are shown below.


Create polls and vote for free. dPolls.com

67% or roughly 2 out of every 3 readers responded ‘Maybe’, depending if the concept is done or executed well enough.

‘Yes’ and ‘No’ answers were slight equal, with the affirmative slightly ahead.

I think developers are well aware of this (they’ve probably realized this quite a few years ago) and some developers with the space and money have executed this to that effect. The ones that come to mind are Setia Eco Park and Ara Damansara.

Smaller developments are also doing this, but the budget is usually relative to the price of the home.

We look forward to the next poll.
