Analysis

Mont Kiara Pines is among the pioneer of Mont Kiara’s luxurious livings. Even though it is among the oldest pads in Mont Kiara, this does not mean that Pines is one of the bad condominiums in the area. In fact, it is still a good place to stay and keep its tenants, even for another decade from now.

The price can still escalate in the future, but most definitely not as much as the past 2 years records.

There are plenty of competitions around the area that offers modern and exclusive features. These new residential would be much preferred by potential tenants and buyers to get the fresh feel.
