myfs_144397 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I have just bought a house which is near to a river. I have attached a drawing to show the position and location of my house and the river. Please advise if the house is too near to the river. Actually I can't really see the river even from 1st floor as the river bank is quite high acting like a small hill.http://dl.dropbox.com/u/39533552/house%20near%20river.docThanks in advance.

Staff Cecil Lee Posted September 8, 2011 Staff Share Posted September 8, 2011 1. In my opinion, this is a very long snaking river that is from East (K L) flowing west towards the mouth of the river close to the Port Klang area.2. It is good that this river has a high river bank. 3.In my opinion, should generally be OK. In fact along the large stretch of this river; there are tributories and it is a pretty long river. And along the river there are lots of development. 4. Quite exclusive area.5. South facing from now to 2023 is OK or better than your neighbour's North facing home.

myfs_144397 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I forgot another point. The river flow is slow as it is reaching the sea but it is muddy.

Staff Cecil Lee Posted September 9, 2011 Staff Share Posted September 9, 2011 Frankly, in my opinion, the river is running parallel to your home. And your home is furthest away from the river.Secondly, I understand it is a very dirty river as nearly all rubbish goes into it.But think about it; this river is not 1 km or 2 km or even 5 km's in length. It has tributaries and this river is in terms of British term "bloody long!". This Klang river is hell of a long. And many developments are even close to the fringe of it.In fact, all rivers today, in Malaysia hell of a dirty. Imagine all those night hawker stalls draining off their pollutants into it. This is Malaysia's standard of river. In Singapore, 30 to 50 years ago is like that. For a major river, large concentration of population; don't expect it to be clear for sure...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted October 7, 2020 Staff Share Posted October 7, 2020 Related: Homes near to a river are often prone to termite infestations. As the banks of such rivers are often damp. And is the ideal condition for termite breeding. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
