Locals Ask
Is RM45/m² too high for a condo here?
That's the ceiling price, typically reserved for high-floor, fully-furnished units in newer developments like Cantara Residences.
What is the average rent for a standard 3-bedroom unit?
Based on m² stats, expect to pay between RM2,800 and RM3,800 depending on the building's age and proximity to the LRT.
Is parking a problem in PJU 1A?
Residential parking is usually ample, but commercial areas like Oasis Square become a disaster during weekday lunch hours.
How does the investment outlook look for 2025?
It's steady rather than explosive; the area is mature and heavily reliant on the steady influx of expatriate tenants and medical staff.
Can I survive here without a car?
Only if you live within walking distance of the Ara Damansara LRT and do your shopping at the connected malls; otherwise, Grab costs will add up.
