Ingredients for happy home sweet home.

Tak habis lagi cerita rumah:) terharu jugak banyak yang hantar personal emails tanya macam2 pasal rumah kat monterez, dah terjual dah ke?,tak available lagi ke..tak ler:) this coming Saturday we will handover key to new owner:( On question; why jual? untuk yang tak tahu,we bought another property, a piece of land at Kota Damansara not far from the present house,so kena jual rumah yang ada untuk roll money,untuk release burden loan jugak.In our case ,pasangan yang makan gaji like us,tak banyak saving,bukan anak orang kaya,nak beli new property kena lah let go yang ada, tips untuk pasangan kat luar, kalau duit tak banyak,bukan buat business,tapi ada impian , ada plan nak beli tanah and build rumah yang perlu banyak duit jugak, kalau ada 3 properties at least boleh roll untuk guna.Masa bujang kalau pasangan ada each rumah keep it,buy at a strategic place, do good renovation untuk increase value,lepas kahwin beli another one.Read the overseas's magazine on how can simple things like outdoor area,curbe, veranda can add value to your basic property.Like us,we sold the first propety which is the kondo and the money for 10% downpayment,legal fees etc utk the land,we sold monterez because we need to release loan's burden, we need to service loan for land and also basic money to build house but we still have the third house to live in until the new house is built,so tak pressure to move out and build house.Then ada yang tanya why tak jual rumah kat Kota damansara sekarang and move to monterez yang dah buat cantik2 while waiting for new house to be built? Sebab rumah kat monterez lebih mahal selling price,dah buat renovation yang extensive,stay kat kota damansara lebih practical,safe cost nak move to monterez,location wise,near to our offices, and the new land just a stone away to our house.Furthermore kota damansara houses harga naik setiap tahun,now the standard double storey terrace is selling at RM680K..insyallah kalau ada rezki dapat buat rumah baru,dah settle,boleh jual present house and keep money as saving.Actually the main reason staying at KD is we love KD too much..everything ada kelliling rumah:) Last soalan, boleh design rumah untuk saya? boleh bagi nasihat,boleh tanya contractor? Design rumah tu ..i am not an archectict,building a house is not a small deal,it's going to be your sanctuary,it must reflect your personality, the things you love..the inner you..so sit down and really think about it..apa yang orang suka tak semestinya sama dengan kita.Setakat share views,bagi tips,bertukar fikiran boleh lah...i love sharing and talk about homes and gardens:)Insyallah one day kalau ada rezki i love to have my own ID shop..assisting people to realize their dreams.

Fisrt ingredient to a happy home;more outdoor living,nature, we become more creative,release tension,strengthen bondings. Location : Kuala Pilah Hill,rumah uwan,breakfast with birds and nature.

Second ingredient; more outdoor activities within the compound,gather people you love,invite them for fun activities.Dont be house bound, ruled by TV and PC..enjoy the sun,enjoy the heat,enjoy good laugh,share gossips,have a good garden,keep you the indoor and outdoor attractive.Location : rumah uwan, masak rendang during last year's raya.

Third ingredient and one of the most important; cook, be a good a chef in your own house,serve good and delicious food to people you love. Once you managed to capture people's heart with your cooking, the will love your house and your kitchen ..they will crave to come to your house for a simple maggie goreng. The food in the picture : the sinful sup gearbox ,yang lembut,yang lemak berkrim..yang dicicah kicap cilipadi...argghhhh cepat lah raya nak balik kampung uwan.

Lastly kat mana kita berada..jadikanlah ia sanctuary,paradise..tak perlu tunggu hingga dapat yang lebih besar yang lebih strategic, duduk flat ke,kondo ka,quaters ke..make it the best you could..tak der tanah mesti ada balcony. And mesti ada impian..ada kemahuan.

Now i live with the people i love.. i cook, i decorate, i run and roll under the sun..with the people i love:) at the same time i bina impian..

Finally..bubye to my tombol kitchen cabinet kat Monterez..Puan Sabarina..jaga my new kitchen okay..may you and your family be blessed with happiness there.
