Rented it out for RM 4,000 per month for 4 years. Total gross return (capital gain plus rental income) was approximately RM 800,000 for 6 years or an ROI of 48% averaging 8% per annum. I suppose you can't go far wrong buying a semi-d in Damansara Heights. As for bungalows, for the price range of RM 2.5 million to RM 3.5 million in Damansara Heights, you can only get very old run down bungalows that probably requires at least RM 200 per sq foot to refurbish to new. That would bring the costs of a renovated bungalow to at least RM 4 miilion which may not be afforfdable to most people. Semi-detached houses are a good alternative. - LIEW Darryl Fri, 26 Feb 2010 10:48:10 +0100 http://thinkproperty.com.my/realestate/ThinkBlog/Increase-in-demand-for-semi-detached-homes-in-2010.html#comment-106 The area i am referring to is in Damansara Heights. Examples would be Semi-d's in seri beringin, setiabakti, setiamurni & beringin residence. Response from advertisements have been quite encouraging compared to higher priced bungalows. - Eugene Liew Mon, 22 Feb 2010 09:50:46 +0100 http://thinkproperty.com.my/realestate/ThinkBlog/Increase-in-demand-for-semi-detached-homes-in-2010.html#comment-99 Eugene, Would you mind elaborating in further details?
