When buying property, does living near public transport really make a difference? Let’s break it down before you head into the weekend.

🚆 The Perks of Staying Near LRT/MRT

• Convenience: No more traffic jam stress, just tap card and go.
   
• Higher Demand: Units near stations usually get more tenant enquiries.
   
• Better ROI: Easy access = higher rental value, stronger resale potential.
   
• Lifestyle Bonus: Walk to malls, gyms, offices — less Grab rides needed.

💸 The Downsides

• Higher Price Tag: Developers know buyers want convenience, so they charge more.
   
• Noise Factor: If your balcony faces the tracks, say goodbye to peaceful mornings.
   
• Crowds: Peak hour = ramai people everywhere.
   

👀 Friday Takeaway

If you’re:

• An investor → Properties near LRT/MRT are almost always safer bets.
   
• Buying for own stay → Balance between convenience & peace. Don’t buy a unit right above the tracks unless you love ASMR train sounds. 😂
   

✨ Bottom line: Public transport = value booster. But always compare location, noise, and price before you commit.
