If you mean Covillea is going to have the same faciliaties/concept as Savanna, then is possible as both are developed by Berjaya. However, if you mean Covillea is sharing the facilities with Savanna literally, it is impossible. Covillea project is a higher class condo than Savanna with higher price tag. Who will want to pay more but sharing the facilities with other condo residents.

The condo around that area has high demand for expatriates and students (students from middle east and africa). So rental wise, it can fetch a good price In that sense, it is not really an ideal place to stay as too many foreigners.

Is Savanna 2 sharing facilities with Savanna? How come I do not know when I am a resident of Savanna. Need to ask the management then

I have just visited Covillea show room this morning. Concept is very identical to Savanna even the building structure itself. but the Price is so steep... when I went there the Golf course view is almost fully taken up left 2 units which worth more than 500K. 500K for 1419sqft is too exp.

I think the price is so steep is because it is riding on the demand of Savanna. That time I bought Savanna is close to 300K only and now the starting price of Covillea is half a million.

Why do they increase the price by 21K on the 2nd day? Cos the demand is too good on the first day? This project will be like the Zest which sold like hotcakes.

But it is amazing, it is just 1 day and all the units are almost snapped up. For Savanna, I think it takes several months to completely sell off all the units. Msian are getting richer and richer. Buying property like buying clothes nowadays.

I have just came back from there this morning. But looking at the demand, I believe by end of this week, everything should be snapped up.

I have to admit the location is very strategic. It is very convenient for people who are taking LRT to walk and it is very accessible to everywhere like LDP, Kesas. If not because I have purchased Savanna for my own stay, I will definitely purchase 1 unit in Corvillea.

However, if it is for investment, the entry price is very steep. Imagine, now the units left are from 468K till 600K and when block A is opened up, the price will be further increased. Definitely when the property is completed, the price will still be jacked up. Subsale price in the future probably will become 800K for a 1400sqft condo If I am a purchaser, I will not pay such a high price for it.

Berjaya really chooses the right time to launch Covillea project after looking at the demand of Savanna and Savanna 2. The sales is incredible. Malaysian are snapping up the units like buying clothings

I wanted to get 1 unit there but the prices are just too expensive.

How was the block A sales? Has it been snapped up like hot pisang goreng like block B?

Wah Datuk Covillea,

If you are not berjaya staff, you probably is Vincent Tan or Berjaya fans Support Berjaya till the max. I agree that Covillea is located at a very strategic location, but I am quite skeptical about the quality of the project for such a high price.

I am staying at Savanna now for hardly 6 months, now the concrete slabs above both the guest and master bedroom toilets are leaking. Call the management office to fix but till now still no news.

My thoughts on Covillea project is that it is ideal for own stay because of the scenery and the strategic location. I personally is trying to get the 1400sqft unit when the block B was launched. Just that, I missed the early bird discount.

As the price is steep, I am expecting Berjaya to provide all the purchaser with high quality furnishing. Basically, I am not impressed with Savanna furnishing. Not to say both my toilets' ceilling are leaking, even the water piping at the carpark level are also leaking.

No offend to those investors here who are thinking to sell the unit once it is completed. Personally I think the entry price for Covillea is too high. Like now, a lot of units in Savanna now can fetch around 420K and some even 500K but to get buyer to buy at that price is quite difficult. Whats more Covillea. Unless Bukit Jalil area can be developed till like MK or Damansara where people are willing to part 500K to buy a condo.

Hi danlim,

Is there any reference to back this statement up? By just repainting, price will go up? I do not think so. I heard that Vista's management is not good in maintaining the facility. The lifts are always malfunction and the corridor are not brightly lighted. On top of that, every unit has 1 car park only. I have not seen it personally.

An interesting analogy. To me the analogy will be more suitable for buying a double storey terrace and semi-d. It is about whether you have the $$ or not Painting the entire building may give it a brand new look but the price appreciation for repainting will be negligible.

Repainting will give more confident and comfort to the buyer as the condo looks new at the outside. It will increase the chances of selling off the units there. After all, potential buyers will focus more into aspects like facilities, performance of the management as well as the condition of the units which they are interested.

Please stick to the thread's topic la How is the sales of Covillea? Has all the units sold off?

The pisang goreng has cooled down after all. Block B was snapped out like in 2 weeks time.

Hopefully most of the purchasers are buying for their own stay. Then probably, your wish can come true.

For example Savanna, I would say most of the units are rented out to students at least for my block. As you know students, they do not really bother about taking care of the environment.

Savanna 2 is really overpriced. For such a price and you do not get any underground parking. It will be just shaded parking.

Yeah totally agree... help residents in Savanna like us to maintain the facility. Pay such a premium price and still need to walk such a distance to use the facility.

Really no brainer la

That is a positive aspect to look at it. However, IMHO, Savanna 1 residents are paying 0.2/sqft for maintenance bills and able to enjoy the facilities conveniently whereas Savanna 2 residents have to walk a distance to enjoy those facilities. On top of that, the build area of Savanna 2 is much bigger and you are paying much more to for the maintenance bills.

So who is at the disadvantage, I wonder?

But the launching of KM1 and soon KM2 will not have any direct impact yet on Savanna sale & rental price since it will be only ready in another 2-3 years time. However, the completion of Covillea next year will be something to watch out whether Savanna price will be pushed up in tandem with Covillea or down due to more alternatives. If Savanna price will go up further, I plan to sell off my unit.

Those are fully furnished units in Block B. I am just wondering will there be sufficient demands on bare empty units in Covillea selling at 600,000? I am planning to sell my unit in Savanna as well if I get pricing like RM550,000 though is fully furnished but in Block A.
