Gugusan Sejora is a low cost apartment which due to the course of developments has suddenly found itself neighbouring high end residential areas in Kota Damansara. As such, its location has gradually became more central as more and more connecting roads were built to connect this town to the city. However due to the increase of residents, traffic and the continuing construction, the traffic accessing the apartment can be quite a nightmare during peak hours.Neighbouring Gugusan Sejora are several more low cost apartments such as Gugusan Melur, Gugusan Teratai and Gugusan Tanjung. Due to this, the residents of this area have a certain stigma that associates them to low cost areas, which might repel off buyers who are interested in the apartment with its excellent location and low price.Gugusan Sejora does not appear to be a good investment, as there are two important factors that affects it; the fact that it is leasehold, and the fact that it is within a low cost area. The price has undoubtedly risen slightly in the recent years, but nowhere near to be called a good investment. It does however appear to be a good place to start a family if one is comfortable with the environment, as it is indeed well located and quite affordable for a home this close to the city.
