I am staying at 41st floor of a 46 floor condo. What I can say is: 1. You definitely have more privacy 2. Water pressure is less of an issue 3. Going up is an issue because there are so many floors to reach yours 4. More sunlight in corridor and more wind hence better view too 5. Neighbors type makes no difference, there are also rich people with lousy attitude and less rich people with better attitude, vice versa

Why do higher levels have less water pressure issues?
@steventay58349 күн бұрын
TheDdealwis Normally, those 6 floors and above, the water supply is from the water tank on the roof top. So, those on the 6th floor, the water pressure is the highest

staying at high floor also get to enjoy the wind and views but sometime the wind can get so strong that it create a havoc in the house and there is no flies in high floor, you can cook smelliest belacan and leave it at the table uncovered and no flies will come

also to consider: on lower floors it's harder to get in a lift during peak hours (also during rmco when the law limited the lift capacity)

If you take into consideration the progressive billing comes later for higher floor as compare to lower floor, for example level 20 billing could come 10 months later than level 1, the interest you save during the 3 years construction period is a lot. The differential sum you pay for buying level 1 and level 20 may not be a lot

Usually it's RM 2k - RM 5k per floor in terms of floor premium, but you get better views. Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for your informative sharing, Iherng. If I may add on, I think another issue with the lowest floor is when people throw rubbish or cigarette butts down, those will land on the lowest floor.

Hi Mr Sean, I just visited one of Sky World recent projects in Setiawangsa. To my surprise, there are units (Of The same type) the higher the floor the cheaper the price. For example, 35th floor, RM 434k but 38th floor, RM 426k.. there are lower floor with more expensive price. The highest floor is 43, if I’m not mistaken. The gym etc are on the top floor, swimming pool etc 8th floor. When I asked, the agent said Sky World calculation is different. Like parking which level, type of car park (tandem or side by side). As I want to lessen my monthly commitment as much as possible, I decided to book the cheapest available 38th floor, though I dislike it being too high😅. I wanted slightly lower floor but the available units (of the same type-2 bedrooms and facing the same view) are more expensive. I still have doubts though, as why the price is like that, could you share your opinions please? Thanks

Hi Sean, thanks for the reply appreciate it lots~! I'm in the midst of considering the top floor of a condo development... and sadly while they do have the safari roof, it ends right at the beginning of the unit I'm considering (east side, top floor, corner unit) -_- but the safari roof height is quite tall ~6m and hopefully can provide shade as the sun moves to the western side in the afternoon. I hope the developers will talk up more on their architectural/technical stuffs as a differentiation point, like horizontal overhangs that can block some sunlight from hitting the rooms directly (not all condos does the horizontal/vertical overhangs for windows). Or if they use the best method of waterproofing etc... or as you you have mentioned lots of times, if the architect/developer bother about putting windows/mechanical ventilation in the refuse chamber... these are things that a lot of the buyers won't immediately notice or asks about, and the developers also strangely, seldom promote too.

Hi Sean. I love all your contents. I have a suggestion on how to make your channel more interesting and it will definitely give more viewer to your videos.. Try make 2 or 3 videos in Malay language. You will attract more viewers that not coming from urban community. Because there are very few property review channel in Malay language. Just look at Bobby Ang(Car reviewer) and Sugu Pavithra(cooking channel). All their Malay language videos are well received.

I appreciate that suggestion Rozaimi. I think it's great!! But the unfortunate truth is all legal documents are still in English. That was my struggle as my own family member couldn't understand me, and they insisted me to speak mandarin. Well, let me try one or two lah.. Thanks for sharing again:)

If you could choose to spend Rm40k more for an exclusive lake view for specific units, would that be a strong factor to increase your demand in rental income as compared to other units?
@iherng4 жыл бұрын
It depends at what range the rental is. If it's in an exclusive location, then it might be a factor. But if its within the middle to lower range of rental rates, it wouldn't matter at all. Will your tenant pay more rent just for a lakeview?

Hi Sean, been following you for a long time. I need advice, not sure if there's anyone else i can ask. I'm looking at purchasing a condo unit on the highest floor, with a void floor above my ceiling. Fantastic views! but in your opinion, is this a good unit or would it cause problems in the long run? p.s. buying for own stay
@chenhuanli47834 жыл бұрын
Very easy question for me if 2500 RM can choose same layout but higher floor then why I choose lower floor, and second thing, the room need a lot of Sunlight to prevent the mold because it is wet in Malaysia, lower floor more easy to get mold and will influence the health in long term
