When initially launched, Duta Impian was selling at less than RM300 psf. Prices have since then risen drastically up to RM 500 psf, within a period of 10 years. The facilities are well maintained and the building's facade have recently received a makeover, hiding the building's age quite well. For investment purposes, Duta Impian could be a good candidate for buy-to-rent despite the sharp increase of price in recent times. Rental rates are hovering at RM2,000 for the 700 sf units. That is return of approximately RM3 psf, which translates to roughly 7% return.
