Am taking loan from OCBC, and the agent persisted to the bank's lawyer. I think which lawyer to take care the loan agreement not really a big matter, as long as we don't get late interest charge due to the insufficiency of the lawyer communications between developer and the bank!

And,

Wow, already a new thread for Zest... hot hot hot~~!

Oh ya, last weekend when I went to the sales office, I overheard an owner ask about the space for air-cond compressor.

She asked why there is such a space. Then, she said that she's paying for that space and it is used for compressor. The SA told her that the space is provided FOC by the developer <--- any comment?

i simply measured the Type A layout plan but i wonder TT how to get the 1205sft. cos the total width x total length only 8.675m x 12.375m = 107.3531m2 x 10.764 = 1155.55ft2 not included Air Cond ledge.
if consider Air cond ledge got additional 1.5m x 1.5m = 2.25m2 x 10.764 = 17.65ft2 then the total area will be 1173.20ft2

around 2% different. rclxub.gif

I booked a unit in Block A last week. Loan just approved and going to sign S&P soon.

Most likely I will not stay in The Zest as I got other landed prop. Might rent/sell later or my parents might want to move in there.

The SnP stated if the actual unit is smaller then the actual size of the house in "??%" the developer will refund for it.. not sure is how ??% Any one remember? I need to check back the SnP.

But it still depends on the actual buildup unit itself.

Don't forget the carpark space and balcony. S&P has provided clause on allowable marginal error (can't remember the %) but beyond that, dev has to compensate (if lesser). If the other way, we don't have to pay for more space produced in the error. These all can only be looked at on the real unit once VP. For landed property, we can usually hire external contractor to record at all the defects and dimension (if it is according to the agreed S&P). Some may do so for condo/apt too.

the balcony are included in the mesurement. but i think carpark space should not consider in build up area.

Its true, if our unit is smaller than the size in the agreement then they have to compensate us according to the formula in the S&P which is (i cant remember how much per square feet - have to check the schedule in the S&P) and if there is any excess or extra spaces more than the size of ur unit then v dun have to pay anything for it.

There's no waaayyy carpark space is to be considered in our build-up area ...... vmad.gif

Its true, if our unit is smaller than the size in the agreement then they have to compensate us according to the formula in the S&P which is (i cant remember how much per square feet - have to check the schedule in the S&P) and if there is any excess or extra spaces more than the size of ur unit then v dun have to pay anything for it.
*
If I can remember correctly, that's a +- of 2% of the total build up. I actually asked the lawyer, who's gonna measure and make sure that the build up is as per in SNP? The lawyer told me the government agency (dunno which one) will measure first, before they release the Certificate of Completion to the developer...

By the way, the compensation is based on our purchasing price on the unit, but not the market value by then tongue.gif

Hey all zesters,

Nice to meet you guys again.

I have a few questions regarding to the housing loan.

1) I got offers from bank and plan to sell off the apartment after 10 years.

i) ZEC BLR-2.2% whole tenure, 5 years lock-in
ii) NZEC BLR-2.4% whole tenure, 5 years lock in

Which one is better for my case?

2) The bank agent said that the installment can be paid once the full loan are released from bank upon the completion of Zest. So that meant I have to wait for 2 years + then only can start paying the loan although I am prepared to bear the monthly installment now. So I wonder if this is good for me? Agent said I can use the cash in somewhere else for the first 2 years until the completion of Zest.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Option 2 will definitely much more better caused u save a lot of interest. ZEC is only ideal for those who are short of fund to pay the legal fee presently.

Most of the bank will allow u to pay the instalment amount before the full loan is released. Double check your letter of offer.

btw... i just called SA about my referral fee.. she told me the show unit is done, still got some minor patch up to do (but dunno what is that)..

However, was told by SA today block A still got 7 units.. plenty more purchasers on waiting list waiting for more desirable units to be released.. Once other units release due to loan issue, buyers from waiting list have to pay booking ASAP, agent cannot reserve for them until they pay up.. 1st come 1st serve basis... now agents are fighting each other for sales and buyers are fighting each other for release units... fuyoh.. sweat.gif

Not really. I had double checked with UOB agent and specifically talk about this issue and they acknowledged that and mentioned it is not negotiable because this is the normal practice of UOB for under construction property.

Also if he release it back to developer, might not be able to get back his RM 3000. Which is a big loss to him whistling.gif

selling off the apartment after 10yrs makes no difference to the lock in period as both also would not be able to lock you in. use the online calculator to check how much difference if you opt for NZEC.
then you can decide whether it is worth go for NZEC or ZEC or whether you want to cough out the funds upfront.
if you prepared to pay the monthly installment now, then go for those flexi-loan type. whatever excess fund will knock off the principal. cool2.gif

for flexi loan, the interest is not any higher, just that there is a monthly account maintenance fee. if you use it as your "salary" account, you end up paying much lesser amount of interest.

The agent told me that the deposit is only refundable if the loan is not approved. Would not be refundable if you quit buying the unit.


One quick question, I got this offer from bank.

1) Whole tenure 30 years, 90% loan, Bi-weekly payment, lock in period 5 years, MRTA not required, NZEC BLR-2.4% or ZEC BLR-2.2%

The thing bothered me most is I can only start paying the monthly installment upon full release of the housing loan. Which meant I can only start paying the monthly installment after 2 years + , early year 2012.

Although the rate is good but I couldn't save much for the interest charges before the Zest project is completed. Anyone experienced this kind of situtation before? Mind to share about the pros and cons.

Thank you.

you can always save up the monthly installment where you want to start saving now. when loan is fully disburse, make a lump sum repayment to reduce your principal amount. this way, you could also save on the interest.

Hmm, it seems like the 'Korean en-bloc' is a gimmick eh??

Anyone started to pay their interest/installment to the bank already? I haven't received any letters/news from either the developer or bank yet.

Don't think so. Was there to sign my S&P yesterday and saw around 7 units left. 1 at the ground floor with private garden, 3 low floors where the sides are west facing units and around 3 units on the high floors.

I got mine end of May and paid the 10% already. Hmm, hopefully, there won't be any delay by them, resulting in paying 'unnecessary' penalty/interest installment now.

For your information, all units in tower C and tower B already sold out 100% long time ago. So 7 units are referring to units in towers A. And the only 7 units in The Zest @ Puchong Kinrara.

Correct me if I am wrong. Save up the monthly installment and make a lump sum repayment after 2 years will not save much compared to paying the monthly installment starting from now. Some bank actually allow people to pay monthly installment once the first reimbursement was release, and this bank offered me the other way around which is ONLY can pay monthly installment upon full release of housing loan.

Should I proceed with this bank or keep looking for other banks which allow people to pay monthly installment upon first reimbursement?

Thank you cry.gif

Tower A unit 01 - 12 are west facing, but I am not sure whether they are still available or not.
So you meant if you were me, you will go ahead with the bank loan? True also, may need money to renovate also =D Hehe initially I am thinking to to rent out the whole empty house without renovation xD

And another question, if I go ahead with this loan, so the interest will be charged on loan amount released or full amount(270k)?

Scenario 1
=======

1) First Month : 3.15% on 270k
2) Second Month : 3.15% on (270k + 3.15%)

Scenario 2
=======

1) First Month : 10% loan amount released. So interest charged will be 3.15% on 27k (10% of loan amount)
2) Second Month : Another 10% loan amount released. So interest charged will be 3.15% on (27k + (27k + 3.15%))


Both of the scenarios above are to give you guys some idea about my questions. May not be accurate so just give me some opinion about the general way how the bank loan worked.

Thanks tongue.gif

The remaining units are for Tower A only.

The units are actually North/KLCC facing, but since it is a corner unit, the side of the unit actually gets the evening sun although the balcony is still north facing view.

Helloe Zesters! What a lively and informative forum you've got here. Glad to be able to join the community. Can sure use some good advice from the experts here.

I've just booked a unit in Block A few days ago. Wonder why a unit on the 20th floor was still left unsold. Thought top floors are usually hot sale.

There are few units left in Block C at that time, which was going for only 250K, but the balcony is blocked by block B. If it's for investment (e.g. rental), wonder if these units will be able to fetch good rental?

Anyway, so far have been contacted by OCBC and EON bank. From what i learned, seems that OCBC is offering quite a good rate, at BLR - 2.3% frist 3 years, with remaining at BLR-2.4%. But this is with NZEC. Any thoughts on which bank offers the best rate?

Btw, does the car park requires a separate loan agreement? Can the 10% downpayment goes to cover the car park? Then I'll only need a loan agreement for the apartment.

Tower A unit 01 - 12 are west facing, but I am not sure whether they are still available or not.
So you meant if you were me, you will go ahead with the bank loan? True also, may need money to renovate also =D Hehe initially I am thinking to to rent out the whole empty house without renovation xD

And another question, if I go ahead with this loan, so the interest will be charged on loan amount released or full amount(270k)?

Scenario 1
=======

1) First Month : 3.15% on 270k
2) Second Month : 3.15% on (270k + 3.15%)

Scenario 2
=======

1) First Month : 10% loan amount released. So interest charged will be 3.15% on 27k (10% of loan amount)
2) Second Month : Another 10% loan amount released. So interest charged will be 3.15% on (27k + (27k + 3.15%))

Ic... the ans is no... your interest will be only charged based on the amount released from bank to developer..

During foundation work, every unit owner has to pay up 10% 1st... and then another amount for podium carpark (since we have a saparate SNP). After that, the developer will only request subsequent payment when construction reaches your floor. In other works, those who bought lower floor will hav to pay longer interest compare to those who bought 20th floor smile.gif

both car park always together, only diff is either side by side or tandem. Side by side means both car can move in and out independantly, while tandem is one in one out (or one front and one back), the car at the back has to move away in order to allow the car in front to move out from the parking lot. Best is to check with your Sales Agent, call up your sales agent if you wan to know which kind of parking lot you are getting, our source is not so reliable in my opinion smile.gif

Developer has their own guideline in allocation car park.. some units in level 12 and above will still get tandem carpark due to the lower price of the unit, some get side by side due to more expensive unit. smile.gif

hello, I got the same offer from OCBC. You can try UOB or Public Bank because they can offer better rate for NZEC which is BLR-2.4% for whole tenure. But beware of the term and conditions, I could not comment much here because haven't got the chance yet to compare between the banks.

For ZEC, all banks offer similar rate BLR-2.2% whole tenure, RHB, UOB, Public Bank and so on.

For OCBC, they will have separate loan agreement for car park and also apartment. And I never know that people can pay for the car park using 10% downpayment. You may try it then. Also note for NZEC, OCBC provide option to finance the legal fee into your loan which could increase the interest charges in long run as the principal amount increased.

For the unit level 20, one reason it is still unsold could be the top floor in apartment generally experience problems like water leaking and burning hot because it is nearest to the ceil under the sun drool.gif

btw guys, just checked with the developer...the due date for release of the loan is today (mine is a block C unit, am not sure abt those frm other blocks) so u guys better contact ur lawyers + bankers and check with the developer as well whether the first release has been done yet. else, there would be a penalty of abt RM8 per day incurred till ur loan is released!

i'm not sure abt block B as my unit is in block C. if ur unit is in block B, maybe u can try asking the developer when is the due date to avoid frm any late penalty charges. imagine if u're not aware its due n the bank have not released the loan for 2 mths, it's RM240 gone just like dat!

Wow, doesn't know about this.. Very informative and thank you very much eugene!

By the way, the sold and not sold out thing, heard from a friend that they are quite a number/some of units being returned due to not able to get loan from banks.. And I think because of that, suddenly block A, B is sold out, suddenly... oops, still got 3-4 unit left. (Just my 2 cents opinion anyway tongue.gif )

But at what price they snap up? Important to know if they are buying at a higher price or not? I'm quite sure developer release back the unit at higher price already.

Why would you like to sell it when you haven't buy it yet? You have just booked it so I think you cannot sell it. If you have problems with it, just talk to the SA and request for booking fee refund.

Hello to the owners, if you want to transfer your unit urgently, make sure you give some description here and good points of buying your unit, I am sure this will attract some people and increase the success rate.

Also I think through and decided to take the offer from RHB with reasonable rate rather than better rate from other banks. The officer appointed to this project is Miss Ooi. Anyone has good or bad experience with RHB, please share here.



Comparison between offers from banks.

1) Other Bank

90% loan, 30 years, NZEC, BLR-2.4% whole tenure, lock-in 5 years upon first drawdown, MRTA is optional, only can start monthly repayment after full release of loan or maximum 37 monthly

2) RHB Bank(probably Public Bank offer the same rate)

90% loan, 30 years, ZEC, BLR-2.2% whole tenure, lock-in 5 years upon first drawdown, MRTA is optional, can start monthly repayment after first drawdown.

The reason I chose RHB is because I can start paying the monthly installment after first drawdown instead of waiting for the full release of loan. This will surely set me free from the nightmare of piling interest charges due to project delay.

Please advise before I am falling into the trap rclxm9.gif

I also got my loan from Ms Ooi, RHB. She's very nice. I chose RHB because of its interest rate and lock down period.

From what I heard is, you can write in to RHB bank and request/appeal/ask for early monthly installment without have to wait until fully drawdown. But still, subject to approval smile.gif

I have spoken to the agent twice about starting monthly installment upon first drawdown and she has confirmed this as part of the deal without any terms & conditions. In other words, this is part of the package they offered, at least for now in my thought.

I wonder why they want to make it so confusing? Perhaps they try to revise their package to make them more competitive. And to avoid any further miscommunication, I will give her a call again tomorrow to check if the monthly installment is referring to the payment to offset the interest only or the standard monthly repayment. Best thing I can do would be checking the terms and conditions once I got their offer letter.

Good luck and I find no excuse for them to reject your application.

wow oledi received the debit note from OCBC for the first drawndown 
tiz month need to start pay interest le


Let me get this right, you don't mean you can start paying monthly repayment upon first drawdown from OCBC right? In my offer letter, they have clearly stated that I can only start paying monthly repayment upon full release of the loan. And your statement "tiz month need to start pay interest le" actually meant the interest is piling up started from this month and you couldn't pay any single cent until the full release of loan.

As I have not catch up with all the latest posting, I believe Zest is 100% sold! Bravo!

The next thing now is for the developer to keenly pursue some reputable commercial tenants or at least those that attract traffic/patrons. F&B is a must such as Old Town, Pak Li, Kim Gary or Wong Kok, fast food joint (McD) or Burger King,.... the rest can be offices but F&B is a must,....

Im looking forward for the opening...

Hi shiewwai85,

I have started a community website something like this for my other property that I have. I already have the hosting plan and am a programmer an administrator for it. It started of as a forum thread as well, but was too difficult to read and for people to keep track.

I don't need sponsorship for the domain/webhost as the current service I am paying for supports multiple domains.

Let me know if anyone is interested and I can get this setup relatively quickly.

I doubt this will work. Who are going to patronise these places during working hours as there arent many offices around. The only busy time is during evening/night.

For all these F&B outlet to deem viable, there is a need for demand and demand normally comes from offices, I dont expect factory workers to have their lunch there.

This idea is good, but I think it's too early for now. I think this 'project' need to be kicked start when we have collected our keys, moved in, form our own JMB and then from the community, to start with this 'e-community'. The portal can support like list down all the security guards faces, booking facilities online, pay monthly maintenance online, comments and complaints, events, news, updates, connect to cctv of the condo, visitor tracking and monitoring, security alarms and alerts, (imaging a cctv to always watching ur own vehicle from carpark hahaha) etc.. etc ... smile.gif

Wow, it will be great if we can have all these F&B there.. but again, they need to make sure they'll have enough customers to survive. (mcd or burger king maybe not, but old town or kopitiam style cafe is not bad thou)

What kind of business you all think would be at Zest commercial if those mentioned F&B wont survive?

Cant recall details, is Zest asking for 2.2M for their commercial lots? Thats seem very very stiff....

Not sure if that will help to create the commercial pull for zest lifestyle concept...

Because if its ended up as offices, then what lifestyle there is to offer?

Would you open an Old Town when your customers only come in the evening?

I do hope my observation is wrong though. smile.gif

But as far as I know, one F&B owner has bought a unit there and planning to open an outlet there. So, its still not too bad. Maybe he sees something which I dont. wink.gif

The Zest commercial lots has tremendous visibility and marketing values. Judging by the number of traffic using the highway everyday, personally think even at 2.2mil its reasonably priced.

Some back end (zero visibility) 3 storey lots in Puchong center already asking for above 1.2mil............. sweat.gif

Not all corner units will get a side by side carpark. It did mentioned in the S&P what kind of car park that you're getting.

Called my SA and confirmed that there will be individual water meter for each unit of The Zest. The water rate will follow that of residential rate too.

Latest news is that there are only 3 units left in Block A (lower level) and 1 unit in Block B (with private garden)!

Hi, actually OCBC does allow monthly installment upon first drawdown. I've confirmed this with OCBC. Hence looking at the offers by all the banks, seems that OCBC's one is rather attractive. For NZEC, 1st 3 years = BLR-2.3%. Thereafter BLR-2.4%.

Anyone took up loan from OCBC? Any better offer?

I took loan from OCBC.. and, am getting MLR-1.3 (Mortgage Lending Rate is now 4.7%) and the lock down period is 3 yrs instead of 5 years, from the first draw down. Also considered a NZEC as the legal fee is sum up in the loan amount ...

initially i thought OCBC offers the best rate with BLR -2.3,-2.4.
But after UOB banker showed me the comparison between their weekly -2.1 rate and normal monthly -2.3..
UOB actually gives the better rate..and your loan tenure is shorten to 4 years..with their weekly calculation..
so I took up UOB offers....but i wonder any tricks that i am not aware of...

Yeaap.. you are paying averagely 13 months per year. Said for example, if from Bank A you are paying monthly installment with 1,200 per month, then in a year ur total paid is 16800. Whereby for UOB, you are paying 15600 (means 1,200 extra each year).. And because they are doing weekly rest, but not daily rest, so for each month, you actually 'rugi' abit because for other banks doing daily rest, you shld be immediately enjoyed the benefits of total loan - 1,200 then only calculate interest, whereby UOB will separate ur 1,200 into 4 parts... and every week perform total loan - (1,200/4) and the calculate interest .... something like tat tongue.gif

ps: If I can afford 15,600 per year, or 1,300 per month, of course my loan tenure will be shorten and maybe I can get better rate (better than BLR -2.1 at least...).. If there is any other bank can offer loan tenure of 25 years with BLR - 2.2 or 2.3, then I think the deal is better ...

Again, just my 2 cents opinion .. biggrin.gif

Hi Zestians! biggrin.gif

Wow this is a cool thread. I got a unit in block A , mine is type A also.

Just noticed that the entrance to type A unit does not have any space for shoe rack. vmad.gif
Go check out the model layout at the showroom and you will see what i mean.
Even as you enter the unit there will not be any space to put one.

This planning is not good. Where to put shoes next time? cry.gif

All the other types have enuff space for a designated shoe rack.

Any comments from you guys who bought type A about this matter? We should all collectively insist that they
allot some space for this basic and necessary purpose. icon_question.gif

Hi Voltus5, mine is type A in Block A too. Another buyer did share with me that he personally finds that type B design has better floor utilisation compared to A: space for shoe rack, store room, privacy of the rooms (doors not directly facing the dining room)...

However, there were not many units left when I made the booking and I prefer a corner unit anyway. Think just have to live with it as nothing is perfect.

Usually, a % of units are reserved for bumiputras. Once the apartments/condos are completed, they will release those unsold bumiputra units for all to buy. So, if they broadcast 100% sold out for towers B & C and only 7 units left for tower A ... this is not exactly true? Unless, all the bumiputra units were also taken up already....

How r u ml22? I understand what you are saying but can you imagine next time after reaching your unit and you
have no place to put away your shoes? R u just going to leave them outside at the entrance? It is going to be messy la fren.
Or are u going to take them off once u reach your entrance and hold them with u all the way to wherever it is that is the
nearest place to construct or place a shoe rack?

Think about it la fren...store room don't have just build more cupboards la, privacy of rooms don't have, just
place some partition la. But everyday you come back from somewhere, you have nowhere to put your shoes. Apala joe...

Got other type to take now? U want to let go your unit ?
U must be from developer ka?

If shoe location not a major concern to you, y dun you just talk about something else then because you obviously could not
relate to this matter.

Yeaap.. you are paying averagely 13 months per year. Said for example, if from Bank A you are paying monthly installment with 1,200 per month, then in a year ur total paid is 16800. Whereby for UOB, you are paying 15600 (means 1,200 extra each year).. And because they are doing weekly rest, but not daily rest, so for each month, you actually 'rugi' abit because for other banks doing daily rest, you shld be immediately enjoyed the benefits of total loan - 1,200 then only calculate interest, whereby UOB will separate ur 1,200 into 4 parts... and every week perform total loan - (1,200/4) and the calculate interest .... something like tat tongue.gif

ps: If I can afford 15,600 per year, or 1,300 per month, of course my loan tenure will be shorten and maybe I can get better rate (better than BLR -2.1 at least...).. If there is any other bank can offer loan tenure of 25 years with BLR - 2.2 or 2.3, then I think the deal is better ...

Again, just my 2 cents opinion ..  biggrin.gif

Daily rest is pointless if you just paying on monthly basis....and the last time I check my UOB loan, its stated daily rest interest calculation. Can you elaborate on this weekly thingy...

Just tryin to create awareness on this matter and see if collectively, we the type A owners can get the dev to
alter the layout just enuff to accomodate a freakin shoe rack. That's all...

So what r u waiting for, type A guys & girls? Start bringing this matter up , call your SA, pester the developer
for the sake of a better future for your beautiful shoes. They will love u back.. thumbup.gif

ermm...voltus, do u think the developer will spend additional $$$ to alter the layout and require all the vested type A purchasers to re-sign their s&p's when they have already sold out pretty much all of the units?!

if response was lacklustre, that might be a different story alltogether... wink.gif

Ya.. i know what you mean..but i just want people to imagine life without space for a shoe rack at the entrance.
Who knows...maybe they can think of something but at the same time not require any amendment to the S & P? wink.gif

Yes their interest is calculated on daily rest.. means if today we pump in money for partial settlement, then immediately the loan amount will be deducted.

But, for our normal installment for repayment, according their weekly thingy, what they actually do is divide our monthly installement (we still pay installment once every month, or to be exact once every 4 week) into 4, and then each month deduct the one quarter from the total installment.
Call UOB agents for more detail .. tongue.gif

last time i request change the location of basin and WC to the opposite wall for Type B bathroom without any additional cost, a lot of ppl said it is mission impossible, but compare to u, my request just a small case. i think you can go to Ikea buy a shoe rack which can fix on the wall to store ur shoes. i m using it right now. suitable for those limited space entrance. biggrin.gif

Just got back from the sales office. Went there to collect my S&P (finally!). They have 'makan' session day today but I didn't go for the food. Anyway, just some updates:
1. 3 units remaining in Tower A. People are still asking whether there's more unit than just these 3
2. Show unit almost ready, just need to properly lay out the road so that we can park our cars rclxms.gif

I am purchaser of Type A unit. Found it amusing really that of all things, the space for shoe rack is now being discussed. Personally, I think that's not a big issue. One just need to be creative when it comes to space utilization tongue.gif

Don't think you'll get vibration (if we do, that's something to worry about) smile.gif

I understand from one of the consultant that they have no action plan to build the ramp as telling by them, till that time all Zest Resident will need to take U turn at TPM which is really really jam due to very very high traffic. My goodness……..

read this from the property malaysia just now oh.... i dont quite believe it because the CEO already said they will build the ramp at all cost during the press release in The Edge (but got a bit kia kia shocking.gif ), but well just to share it here.

Hi voltus5,

Words in forums are expressionless bcos u cant c wats the emotions or face expression as other people speak. I have notice you have used quite some strong words and sentences while conveying ur views or replying other ppl's questions smile.gif .. We are here to exchange views and opinions, and most important, respect each other although we don't agree.. simply because we are unique individuals..

Major issue for you doesn't mean it is the same for others.. if you don't understand what is Paradigm Shift, try reading Stephen Covey's "7 Habits" smile.gif

im not entirely sure, but i think no vibration too. Because my bf used to rent a room at the apartment ( forgot wats the name of the apartment) right beside the putra station "Universiti", then i always go visit him. Hmmm I did not feel the vibration, but if i remember correctly , i do occasionally hear noise haha. But this Universiti station is really near to the apartment one, really just beside it nia.

Yes they did say that but where say cannot take photo or get a copy... so how legitimate is that?

If its indeed a real thing, they should BLARE It out KAW KAW and drive up the value of the commercial lots on sale now....

In a way, if there are noises, it will bound to affect the units facing pool/kl more than the golf view/hill view units. Generally, the Star LRT trains are relatively more quiet as compared to Putra/KTM.

There are only 3 units left? Good. smile.gif

Anyone had snap a photo of the sales board lately? Pls post it if - everyone will be happy if see that this development has been sold out...

Find it abit funny when this forum was discussing the layout of Type A - whether there is enuf space to put the shoes. I think that there is zero chance that the developer will change the layout of the said unit.


Added on August 24, 2009, 11:59 amThe official website www.thezest.com.my is quite useful and colourful. However, the site pictures are not updated frequently. Hopefully, the developer will do something about this as not many buyers are staying near puchong to go to the site to see the updated construction progress.

One of the best local website is by SP Setia, very frequent site pictures with dates taken included. Hopefully, TT can emulate SP Setia in this aspect.

Wah ! Hot hot place the zest .. things r still galloping away.

Hi voltus5, understand yr frustration smile.gif I did notice the absence of a nook for the shoe rack too & the entrance kinda small but its the biggest unit still and the internal space utilisation is among the best - small balcony for bigger hall & no strange passages. thumbup.gif

Only 1 gripe, the construction like not fast enough. How come the blocks are not coming up yet ? If they can do this place faster than setia walk, it would be the biggest present for us owners & a coup for the developer & a feather in the cap for sunrise maincon.


Added on August 24, 2009, 3:21 pmThe equivalent situation of a lrt station outside a condo is seri maya, theres an elevated track just along the main road & the station is abt 100m away - can hear the trains squealing past but no vibrations at the nearest block, that would be catastrophic rclxub.gif

Can see how the track runs at maya here -
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/976100

For consolation, there are sound barriers up along train tracks passing residences. The only thing is, how tall are the barriers because it can't conver all up to 20th floor, so there might be differences in noise levels between the lower & upper units.

Finally...someone who understands and can relate. notworthy.gif Thank you Mr. Potato for at least being able to notice and second the
opinion unlike some others who just prefer to keep quiet and accept injustice from this amateur designer/architect.

We need more dignified type A owners to step up to the plate and point this out to the developer. icon_question.gif

United we stand, divided we will be screwed left,right & center. doh.gif

Yes , have to be faster than SW. If dev good cash flow should be no prob. + most buyers should have gotten loan already.

Ahhh... finally I can see some decent words from you smile.gif

I believe most of us here are a bunch of friendly Zest owners. The reason why your post wasn't well-taken was due to your aggressiveness.

You are right about the shoerack and the lack of entrance space. I could see there is a design issue with this. For your information, I'm taking up a Type B unit.

Look closely at Type B, you would see there a " T " wall at the entrance - to form the entrance and the storage room. When I first looked at it, I had the impression that the designer added this " T " wall after realizing the lack of a storage room and an entrance space. Again, this is only my impression because I find the design a bit "uncommon" smile.gif

It's ok la kimhoong. Some are introverts and we'll just have to accept them sitting in their shells..hehe At the same time, nothing wrong with
trying to champion the cause and try to put some fire into their souls tongue.gif

If in this case, being aggressive is wrong, then i don't want to be right. cool2.gif

Exactly my thoughts on the T-wall is if they could think there was lack of storage space and thus created it, why the heck
did they not apply this to type A as well? I think the storage room would add value to the unit as a whole. But still have to
wait for the finished product to be sure.

Hi all,

I've created a new forum based website as http://www.thezest.my . Since this thread is growing very fast and have huge traffic, it might be better we carry out The Zest related discussion in this new site. Otherwise, weeding though hundreds of posts in a single thread would be quite difficult to do and keep track of the discussions that is ongoing.

Hopefully the zest residents can support this initiative which I started smile.gif .

Thanks

Hi Kimhoong, thanks for pointing this out! I am getting type B as well, and the reason is simply because, the SA there said "Type B is the most appropriate layout and you should take type B" .. tongue.gif .. Due to no actual show house, I cant really imagine how's the layout was. So .. Show Unit~~~ bila mau siap ???

The build up surely looks small to me compared to the map or miniature. With 700+ units cramped up together, I can foresee some complication in noise and privacy.

Anyway, there isn't much we can do about it as S&P is signed. Let's just hope for the best outcomes in the end.


Apparently, all SA told us that the showroom is already done but due to accessibility issue, it is delayed.

Better to open up a new thread on the shoe rack related discussion can go to http://www.thezest.my/forums/index.php?board=6.0

Erm.. just use those free CMS system and free templates that I got from the internet (thanks to google). Takes a bit of time to search through all the ones and this is the most decent one I could find.

I dedicated my last weekend to create thezest.my since got people came up with this suggestion. Hope the zesters can make full use of it smile.gif

Strong words to you doesn't mean it is the same for others. Well,this line sure is familiar hmm.gif where have i heard it?
Oh craps! From you hahaha  and i quote  'Major issue for you doesn't mean it is the same for others' . I rest my case. notworthy.gif
You guys are funny! hahaha

And by the way, i think Horatio Alger's  Ragged d*** is a better read. Yaa...like reading a self-help book makes you a hero whistling.gif

Anyway, peace. icon_rolleyes.gif

You sound not very satisfy with the unit you bought...then why you buy at the first place? Hopping to gether the type A buyers to hv developer to change the layout for a shoes rack?

Mind sharing where & how u going to be 'creative' about utilization of space? When there is no space?
Just go on acting cool about it  When your guests come over,you gonna play 'pass the shoes' with them hahahahah
should be able to pass time

Next time go sales office, study the layout la   doh.gif

Anyway,ignorance not a crime

I understand your concern, but you just sound like those who bought type A and don't think the shoes rack is a big issue to them are funny fellows... shakehead.gif

Finally...someone who understands and can relate.  Thank you Mr. Potato for at least being able to notice and second the
opinion unlike some others who just prefer to keep quiet and accept injustice from this amateur designer/architect.

We need more dignified type A owners to step up to the plate and point this out to the developer.

type A buyers are quiet doesn't mean they don't care what they had purchased but maybe they are ok and the shoes rack is simply just not a big issue to them. Don't la sound like only you care sleep.gif

Hi folks, can continue the discussion at http://www.thezest.my ?

Better to open up a new thread on the shoe rack related discussion can go to http://www.thezest.my/forums/index.php?board=6.0

and the built up area discussion can go to:
http://www.thezest.my/forums/index.php?board=2.0

brutus has posted all the unit types layouts there already

Thanks & Cheers

Thanks a lots for the effort! Great job... thumbup.gif

Why i buy? I got too much money. Don't know what to do with it. Why you don't like i gather the owners to hve developer change the layout?
Is it because you are from developer ? If not, then why you seem like you heart sick?

How can you say you understand? Yeah, i think they are funny. But i think you are even more funny. cry.gif

Dear fellow Zestians,

Let us all please return to the friendly warm and cozy discussion that we used to have. There is no (monetary) benefit for anyone of us to "gain a breath of air" (cantonese saying) by pointing/criticizing at what others are saying. I have seen worse "debates" in some other forums regarding another condo, and the only conclusion I could make from that was "gosh, luckily didn't buy there, imagine my neighbours like that...". Let's just stop right here and then, before things go out of control and ugly.

We all can complain about anything that we don't like here. But bear in mind on the approach we take. If you are really vested in this (and of course if you hope to make money from this property), remember that lots of prospect buyers/tenants are reading this thread. If we go down the road of negativity, we will only give our prospect buyers/tenants the wrong impression that the property is problematic - when the problem is probably manageable.

Thank you and looking forward to meet you all at the showhouse gathering!

Well said. rclxms.gif In order to reap the highest of monetary benefit from this venture, and i'm quite sure that's why we are all here
in the first place, the idea is to first maximize the value of our investment. It is this that i'm trying to do, with or without any help
from others. It is only with the achievement in change of layout to the entrance to accomodate a shoe rack that i will cease to voice
this matter.
This is my resolve. In the end, even if it does not materialize , it would not have mattered because it is the fight, and fight we must
because this is our trait. This is what separates us from the animals. drool.gif

So join me in my fight o' type A owners or forever fall behind along with the naysayers and the sceptics that say they don't care,
that it's not a big issue to them,that they don't mind to have paid their hard earned money on 'problems that are manageable.'

Give peace a chance. icon_rolleyes.gif

Hi all,

I've created a new forum based website as http://www.thezest.my . Since this thread is growing very fast and have huge traffic, it might be better we carry out The Zest related discussion in this new site. Otherwise, weeding though hundreds of posts in a single thread would be quite difficult to do and keep track of the discussions that is ongoing.

Hopefully the zest residents can support this initiative which I started smile.gif .

Thanks

I'll try to remove 2 ads on the main board index page, because it looks a bit off. The ads are to cover the costs mainly. Most free forums have ads including lowyat.net, rite? It's not for personal gain, but if someone can sponsor the hosting and domain permanently with sufficient bandwidth, then the ads can be taken off. I was not keen on a free 1 year hosting because moving hosts is a messy job, and I quite like my current web host.

Shared hosting bandwidth is limited, so when traffic is high, cost also increases due to bandwidth consumption. Appreciate your comments, and will take off some, but it won't be ad-free unless we move to those free hosts (which has more limitation and poor speed).

Thanks for helping set the tone right that it is not as serious as it sounds. Bravo. It seems you are one of the few who
can feel the atmosphere. It is only serious if you take it sooooo personal until even innocent playfulness, people
use it to twist it into something sooooo huge. doh.gif

My experience from other sites is that individual threads in multiple sites appeal to a specific group of people. Example is lowyat.net surfers are mostly computer enthusiasts. Real estate investors would be surfing on a different forums, and so would bandar kinrara residents, business owners, real estate agents. Most people would also not want to go through hundreds of post in a single thread just to find some info (unless the person is really free), so having own forums is beneficial in this sense as people can choose to browse/monitor the topics they are only interested in.

Having own "brand" or domain for the online community will appeal to a wider group of people which wants to know more about The Zest. If we can have a common place for the online community to get together, it will be easier to do things in the future such as JMBs or if you want to rent/sell your property. You can technically do so on any other sites as well, but from what I experience previously having an own community site provide a more specialized focus on a specific area that other sites normally do not provide as it is usually a more generalist approach.

Just my 2 cents. Cheers!

What kim***** ? Are you referring me? If yes, do it properly. It's NOT the name that you mentioned but it's your intention to make fun of it, is the one make ppl pissed off!

You also know that those were NOT directed to me and yet I am making a big fuss of it - so there must be something very disturbing in your posts !

What your name is like xxx? What give face to your father? What don't cry anymore? You are not sincere in your posts to make the thread a better place, instead, you are trying to make further fun of it !

Yes, I am a seasoned forumer, and why I am so pissed of these? Simply because there are problems of what you posted !


To be fair, I AM using some harsh words on you - however, see if there is any other forummers come and defend you!

I will rest my case and I MEAN IT - unlike you, who has posted the same sentence but yet still look for chance to make fun of ppl.


IF you have further problems with me, PM me instead !

OK, that's all from me about this matter, I rest my case!

Chill out for heaven's sakes. Why take to heart all that's been said. U just stress yourself. Is it that easy to piss u off?
Maybe you need some anger management therapy la.

And unlike you, i do not depend on other forummers to defend me. I defend myself. tongue.gif

You using harsh words on me? No problem la. I don't let these things get to me. It's all just words in the end. I don't make BIGGGGGG

zzz i sometimes wonder if he/she really a buyer , or just someone purposely pretend to be a buyer and want to cari pasal at The Zest here. Btw i really understand how you guys feel about this fella, because i really feel the same too >__< so geram at the way he/she twisted his and our words, and i need to try hard to keep cool cool cool so that will not be provoked by him. ( eventhough it is really hard, honestly I dont have too high a EQ sad.gif ) Lets just ignore him, try our best !!

Bless those that going to be his/her neighbours.



P/S: can we actually ask the moderator to do something about him ( am i too greedy haha?)


Added on August 26, 2009, 10:18 pmAll guys and girls, he/she is again trying to provoke us. Just cool down ok hahahaah. If no ppl bother , he/she will not feel the fun and maybe hopefully will just walk away.


Added on August 26, 2009, 10:20 pmMaybe is someone from a particular thread that kena closed down in a famous property forum. Just a wild guess....

Let's get back to The Zest discussion (or you may head to our newly created forum - dig back previous posts for the URL) smile.gif

I remember one of the last discussion is the small area of the project. So, do you really think it's way too small for 720 residential units + 45 commercial units?

Enough is enough, this is property talk section not personal confrontation topic.

Keep on going like this, warning might be issued by staff and even suspension. A friendly reminder.

Voltus,
This a property talk section, there is no need to pick up anybody for personal confrontation issue.

Hi Moderator, plse be fair. No names were mentioned. Just making general statement. If this is not allowed, then i think
you should issue warning to others who are resorting to name calling as well.

Somewhere along the way, i saw someone mentioned 'empty vessel'. Wonder if this is considered as also
picking up somebody for personal confrontation issue? If it is, plse issue warning.


Added on August 27, 2009, 12:46 amShould go take a look at the site before you buy. Now buy already, say small la, is it big enough la, seems small for 720 units la...
like yhoong said ' then why you buy?!'

yep...i remembered last time when saujana residency was gonna be built, i was dubious about how the small tract of land btwn subang parade n the highway was gonna accomodate 2 blocks of condos too...but all turned out cool smile.gif

links to the blog where there's a pic of the land before and after construction: http://saujanaresidency.blogspot.com/2009/...ubang-jaya.html

One is the existing Caltex while the other is Petronas (IINM). You can go to the site and refer to the notice board there smile.gif

Just go to the site, and you may visualize your unit whereabout and see if there's anything blocking your view (especially those on hill view like me)

i'll wait for the show unit..
but confirm is there a show unit coming up? cuz they've been delaying for quite some time..
and since all units are almost sold out.. i don't think they have any needs for a show unit..
probably just move the office there..

Yes, it is a petrol station, but not sure which one. Gapurna (known for building petrol stations and affiliation with many different petrol brand) will be building it there. Even the construction notice board is there mentioning about "Cadangan Stesen Minyak"

On the bright side? you have more choice and even ATM machines ready inside. smile.gif

Yeah, I didn't notice this prob coz did not happen on my PC and notebook. It's some alignment problem, that's why it looks flying and overlap with other things (and also I understand why people think I was trying to profit from it - this was not the intention). Will be fixed or taken out soon.

Has anyone of drive by Zest on the main road as per the traffic speed and not slowing down to look at your investment?

You will be very hardpressed not to note that the divider barrier that Zest has completed will be a major accident magnet. I can't help but noticing just how TIGHT that 2 lanes become because the emergency/buffer lane is gone and that concrete divider is a huge bolder right next on the lane and without CLEAR visual que, be prepared.

I have seen some so many car went up this type of divider along sg besi before reaching SMART tunnel entrance. The damage and scarring of the divider indicate multiple impact. It happen right after its was completed and at one time it has those plastic orange pylon for a few meters. The moment those pylon remove, all hell break loose. I hope Zest/engineer is paying attention on this.

I also checked with my SA before regarding the referral fee. I was told that that fee would be released once all the initial payments such as downpayment are made AND after the developer start charging them at the start of the unit/block development

Actually come to think of it; does the open car park has enough space to cater for such set up? The amount of space there is very limited (judging by the size at the site), so there may not be plentiful parking area. Employees of banks or other establishment alone may fill the parking space easily. Moreover, I am sure some resident will park illegally along the road or taking up these car park meant for the shops (like any other high rise residential unit).

I can't recall if Zest residential parking space is also sharing with these establishments. (Anyone remember?) I believe for some of these franchised to be approved, some of them has criteria of sufficient parking space ratio.

As much as i would like such establishment to be available, parking may be a headache to put zest into their radar unless TT has a plan for it.

* Actually the open space that is currently used for building petrol station is best used to resolve future car park issue. Too bad, its a petrol station instead.

the resident's carpark is seperate from zest's commercial side. entrance for residents is via behind but the commercial area carpark is in front. parking might be a slight prob at the commercial part though if banks open there. however, dun tink many residents will park their car illegally along the road coz each unit comes with 2 carparks whereas apartments like pelangi damansara suffers this prob coz each unit only has 1 carpark.

Not exactly true. I know of places that has tandem parking and folks wanted to avoid the fuss of blocking his/her parking partner would rather park illegally somewhere else. Happens in established companies as well as residential units. But not everyone like that la wink.gif If enforcement like police coming to summon the illegal parked cars, then you'll see ppl going back their tandem (don't think i see this often).

Also take note that some units may have more than 2 cars (esp those for rental).

Hi Barney, appreciate your concern on this matter..

Yes, we had discussed this in earlier thread before (I think it is in v1) that we will not expose any identity of owners to protect the privacy of each purchaser, not even unit number. The closest we provide is Block A, B or C.

Any PnC matters can be conveyed via PM.. smile.gif

I wonder if trinity might retain land ownership over the infrastructure instead of handing it over to the authorities, then they can make some $ from imposing parking charges.

Good locality and access as well as reasonable pricing. However, I am not trying to pour cold water, but you need to be careful with the project, especially the end product, after-sales service and management. If I am not mistaken, the current management of the developer is related to KOI.

Refer to the link below.

Can you see the icons on the left hand side? Heron was developed by TT. Koi was also their project, but they didn't mention it on the website because the name is simply too bad.

Also, see comment No. 6 on link below.

TT developed Heron but not Koi, however, the key director in TT was part of Koi's management...different company with different bosses but got common people involved....anyway, like it or not, the Zest is 100% sold out despite being launched at the heights of recession....no other project did better except for Titiwangsa Sentral...

Budget 2009 Malaysia

The existing LRT system in the Klang Valley will be extended by 30km, that is 15km respectively, for Kelana Jaya and Ampang lines. Upon completion in 2011, the extensions are expected to benefit 2.6 million residents in the Subang Jaya-USJ and Kinrara-Puchong areas, compared with 1.9 million currently.


---> This was unveiled by former Malaysia PM Dato Seri Abdullah Badawi last year. So i am wondering with the new PM elected - will this proposal scrapped or proceed? So far no hush hush also geh.

I know you are a buyer and I didn't mean to pour cold water. biggrin.gif It's up to you whether to wanna take the advice. What I can say is, only people who are involved in the real estate development field know the real story and history. smile.gif

The people behind the company started their 1st project at the 2 or 3 blocks of apartments before Heron at the entrance of Bdr Bkt Puchong 1 (take note that Bdr Bkt Puchong is undertaken by another developer, namely Bkt Hitam who is much reputable and responsible). After that they shifted ther activities to Koi Kinrana -> Koi Puchong -> Heron -> PT19 -> Zest -> ??Kajang??

Most people aren't aware of these, and only some people in the same line know the history. Nevertheless, let's hope the developer learns the mistake and provide better service in their existing projects.

Just google Koi Tropica and you will see lots of comments about it. Anyway, as I mentioned earlier, the people behind the group might have improved their service and quality.

Actually Winner Bro, I dun understand how you related TT to Koi Kinrara. My sister bought Koi Kinrara and yes Koi Kinrara is related to Koi Tropika which Koi Tropika has a really bad reputation due to the management there.

As for Developing Company.. I didnt see any relation regarding Koi Kinrara and The Zest.
Koi Kinrara Developer is Lingkaran Naga Sdn Bhd. which is a Sub from MasterON Sdn Bhd.
MasterON Sdn Bhd is a company which falls under the tree from Federal Furniture Holding Berhad which FFHB Mr Choy is also MD for MasterON. (correct me if im wrong)

for The Zest...
Zest is develop under Darul Dinasti Sdn Bhd. which falls under Trinity Tower Group.
so.. TT Group MD Dato' Neoh Soo Keat.

rrr... I dont see any realated issue from TT to Koi Group.
but.. Koi Tropika really have some management problem. But IMO every condo or service apartment would have their own problem. Heron does have their problem too. I bet Zest will have in the future too...

We should not judge Koi Kinrara before its completion, every buyer have their view and decision to make. and we respect that. A good or bad project of previous developer is just a reference and guide for people to take note. So even Good reputation Developers have abandon projects too.

Just get finger crossed and hope to the house you bought its good and be happy with it. smile.gif peace

yup...as what prop kor said earlier, there are ppl internally who's involved in zest also. coz if u noticed, the phone numbers for both the projects are the same! sweat.gif

but like it onot, zest is still 100% sold edi and should be TT's maiden substantial project for them to prove their worth in the property development arena.

Unlike big public-listed developers, in Malaysia, a lot of small players develop projects using different names. If the current project is badly reputed, they will just register other name to develop future project, and they will continue doing this because buyers (mainly those 1st time buyers) will not be able to discover it. The developers' names are different but the senior management (directors and shareholders, probably) are still the same.

See item no. 13 below.
http://propertymalaysia.blogsome.com/2005/...idency-puchong/

As what I have mentioned in my earlier post, the senior management behind the company have done some projects and they should know what to improve. Let’s hope they will try their best to make this development a successful project.

TRUE rclxms.gif TRUE Voltus ...let not the negativity prevail here my fellow Zestians blink.gif ...yes, we should be concerned about the developer's past history hmm.gif but we have bought our respective units. Not much we can do about that. cool2.gif

The thing we should be doing and concentrating on is to monitor the progress of the development and if indeed the end product is less than good, then we will take action to remedy the situation. I don't know if there is any legal protection icon_question.gif for buyers in case something like that happens. Any input here??

Important thing is we stick together and we work towards a better place for us, that is ZEST. rclxm9.gif

good stuff tongue.gif

anyhow, can I suggest that we all continue to be objective and fair in our comments? There will be ppl throwing critism anytime but unless its completely untrue, no need to jump on the gun. Just take it, and move on.

The last thing we want in Zest in a bunch of undiplomatic fanatics who thinks Zest is the best property in the world and will simply hantam other developments or couldnt take any critism ( some other development in Puchong really got fanatics of these kind - hint :Z**). Passion is good as long as its not extreme. Having lots of fanatics in a dev will deter Zest from reaching its optimum price upon CF next time.

I dont want my neighbour to be an extremist/fanatic of any kind...............so what about you all? wink.gif

Your kind comparison is humbling. So this is specially for you my friend.

A Felix Dennis i am not
But if he were me,what would he have thought

bestowing titles of billionaires and poets

Rise up everyone rise up

That this man, he shall be rewarded

Syarikat Prasarana Negara Bhd (SPNB), the Malaysian state-owned public transport operator, is selling RM2bn of Islamic bonds to raise funds for projects, according to a person with knowledge of the plan. The company, which runs light rail services in and around Kuala Lumpur, hired CIMB Investment Bank Bhd and Maybank Investment Bank Bhd to help it sell 20-year notes, the person said. Prasarana plans to sell as much as RM4bn of Islamic bonds, known as sukuk, to raise funds for projects including rail line
extensions. The funds to be raised is largely for the RM7-
10bn LRT upgrade/extension in Klang Valley. Indications are that the tenders would be called for soon and the project is likely to be rolled-out earliest by year-end.


From the report above, it seems like construction for the LRT will only start by 4Q 2009. When I buy, the sales person told me it would start by August 2009. Should we blame the developer for giving us the wrong info?

In 3 years time, the old 42" plasma tv is probably something you would want to throw out wink.gif

Mine is a main road and LRT view. You can basically look out the window to see if its jam and decide not to go to work whistling.gif . No need to wait for radio traffic announcement.

But then again, that road will always be saturated, so everyday also no need to go to work.

You can also spot your GF/BF talking to another fella at LRT station from window.

Ok lar...better not put that into my selling statement now, afterwards ppl say i am promising a LRT station there too.

I can sell at slightly higher price than Pai, Babana and Aramis because of the stated advantages above, better than TV ...hahahaha.

ALL developers have marketing gimmick to lure customers. It's a matter of whether it is overdone or not, and whether you believe it or not.

The lawyer told me they have out of stock for developer binder for about 1mth ago.
Appreciate your advice. Thank you!

I got the "normal binder" as well... the lawyer had said the samething to me also sweat.gif . But I believe the content of the S&P has no different la....just using a different binder only.

I am sure TT still needs to open the show house.

The reasons are: -

1) For publicity to attract potential customers for their future projects.
2) To show that they are the developer who can deliver and kept its promise.
3) And...........may be to show all of you how excellent the Zest quality will be. brows.gif

aiyo...so much negative about this development. makes me and my family worry.....who will help us when bad things come arrrrr

http://propertymalaysia.blogsome.com/2009/...bandar-kinrara/


21. Don’t buy property from this developer, they just sell and run! We are resident from The Heron Residency, and they just don’t really care of the condo after they sold. The material used are low cost and low quality, sound insulation is lousy. security is the “TOP NOTCH” in the world where nobody can access to guard house and office from home. Now the whole condo fulled with foreign students and workers due to TRINITY’s staff which help owners to rent out their house!! Don’t but from this developer, you will regret! Come to our forum then you will know more

Comment by Ivan — April 14, 2009 @ 9:55 am

22. Aiya. I just bough one unit from this project. After read the topic from the forum, i start feel scare already.. what will happen. Feel like “kena tipu” or give another chance to this developer to improve their services?
Comment by Man — April 16, 2009 @ 12:13 am

23. I also just booked a unit of Tower B type D, after reading the comments from Heron residents, now worry that if the developer is able to deliver the promise of the nice landscape and the facilities which are so well-designed; also worry that how the management clean the rubbish since outside type d is the garbage room with door but seems like the management didn’t do their jobs to clean up the rubbish daily at Heron apartment. So worry there will have bad smell.
Thinking should I withdraw the booking fee. Anyone can give some comments based on your living experience in other apartment. Thanks!
Comment by Kelly — April 21, 2009 @ 11:59 pm

24. ya, sometimes buying property in Malaysia is just like gambling, whether you can get a nice condo with a good facilities or you can get a “high class flat with a low class facilitites” …… It’s better buy a completed unit in whcih you can look see look see the facilities provided
Comment by yyf — April 25, 2009 @ 5:39 pm

25. I simply cant see the potential of this place becoming a home a sweet home. My bias view is that it is too close to shops, low cost flats, petrol station, and too congested. Imagine over 500people jumping into a small pool or cramped in a small landscape turf which is not even on the ground.

Comment by Anna — May 26, 2009 @ 2:07 pm

29. thought of purchasing this as well but after reviewing what purchasers of Heron have to say, will definitely give this project a miss. Also, previously bought abondoned project, so reputable developer is must!!
Comment by John — June 11, 2009 @ 12:58 am

30. also with police detention center nearby and heard that there is reserve land for cemetary nearby?? is this true?? worse is facing small and medium industry area. Not a very nice view i must say!
Comment by John — June 11, 2009 @ 1:01 am

31. Common guys, we all are the investors here, let’s be positive on our decisions.
I trust my choice.
This is my 4th property.
To be frank, IMHO, property value is pretty much dependent on the purchaser. it’s pretty d**b to agree to all this negative comment. We should fight back instead of agreeing to it. The more negative things you say about your property the less valuable it’s gonna be.
To all owners of the Zest @ Kinrara 9:
I’m feeling good about where i put my money in now!!
Comment by Barney Low — June 12, 2009 @ 5:11 pm

32. John: The police detention area has been changed into a Police Station.
The C&C is a) quite far b) only visible to block C and c)may well not materialize, it’s prime land which can be sold for a better price.
The developer does not have a reputation, but I will give them hope because they are trying to make a name for themselves.
But I can’t tell why the property is selling like hot karipap. The price is not that great. The traffic will be horrible. The best thing they have going for them is that they got themselves a good PR company or something like that. The Artist Impressions are excellent. But as we all know - Never judge a book by its cover.
On that note, I bought a unit on the 20th Floor in Block B
Comment by Dude — June 16, 2009 @ 3:35 pm

33. Traffic would be worsen in Bandar Kinrara with this development.
What about the utilities charges for the apartments? Commercial rate or residential rate (this development is built on commercial title?
Comment by MH — June 17, 2009 @ 4:51 pm

34. This is a “service apartment” development or in Malaysian term “apartment built on commercial title”. The developer doesn’t want to pay the premium to convert the title to residential hence “service apartment” development is adopted.
Is the SPA includes the parking lots? Or the purchaser needs to sign supplementary agreement for the parking lots? If the later is the case, the parking lots might not be included in the strata title if the developer ever takes the responsibility to apply! Just to share some risks consideration when buying “service apartment” beside non-completion risk for buying an under construction property from small developer!
Comment by MH — June 17, 2009 @ 5:25 pm

35. Hi to all the Zest buyers and investors.. just to share with you. This project is run by a developer by name DraulDinasti.. Folks bare in ur minds their exisitnf project was THE HERON RESIDENCY located at bandar bukit puchong. Plz visit their exisitng project.. fyi in the building materials which they use is all cheap material. They very cleaver in doing empty promises before the developer raise the building. Im on on the victim of THE HERON RESIDENCY, y not u walk in to our service apatment and take a look of any of the houses. u can see their cheap works and they are not a professional developer in housing.. As wht i can advice is please do not invest on it.. DARUL DINASTI does empty promises and we feel we cheated too.. Comment by eric — June 19, 2009 @ 11:42 am

36. DONT BUY Darul Dinasti PROJECTS.. THEY does empty promises, use cheap building material. I can Prove it to you.. please walk in to THE HERON RESIDENCY located at Bandar Bukit Puchong. come and see urself !!! dun get impress by its iluustrated advertisment!!! its all big bullshit of them.. u will regreat if u buy property managed by DARUL DINASTI!!!!
Comment by eric — June 19, 2009 @ 11:55 am

37. Dont ever trust DARUL DINAST developer!! Please be free to walk in to THE HERON RESIDENCY located at bandar bukit puchong. ITs called a serviced apartment with 5star condominum facilities! Darul Dinasti the great lier is the developer for this exisitng project. FYI Darul Dinast does EMPTY PROMISES, USES CHEAP BUILDING MATERIAL, BAD MAINTENANCE SERVICE. Dun also forget to get into any of the houses too u will get diaapointed too,. PLZ dunt get impress easylt by the iluustrated drawings and advertisment.. Its all LIE & Bullshit..
Comment by eric — June 19, 2009 @ 12:01 pm

Comment by akon — June 19, 2009 @ 12:03 pm

39. glad u are aware of all the shortcomings and after weighing the pros and cons decided for it. Wish u best of luck!
but for me like i said reputable developer is still top priority. once bitten twice shy.
why selling like karipap? dunno… surprising, after all that the Heron residency ppl have to say…
Comment by John — June 23, 2009 @ 12:22 am

40. I thinks its nt good idea for getting property from such developer, as i beleive such developer who have exisitng complaints projects will only look forward on making money but not in their promises service. Most of their buyers giving bad thoughts on the developer..

Comment by saini — June 24, 2009 @ 12:30 pm

41. Just pay the deposit for Tower B, worry about this developer’s quality of delivery…. shall I proceed for the S&P
Comment by Ivory — June 26, 2009 @ 3:34 pm

42. I booked one unit and cancelled later (block B 12th floor type B) for personal reasons. Its in good location, but 3 years to complete is too long for me, too many units to share facilities and cannot control on the tenant occupancies. Anyway, i heard the materials used are those of good qualities (glass barrier in the balcony) etc.
Comment by NLW — June 27, 2009 @ 4:25 pm

43. I booked a unit at Tower A on the 10th Floor (type B) at RM281K and will be signing for S&P next week. I think i have made the right decision. I hope the project will look as nice as what is illustrated in brochure/artist impression.

Comment by jin — July 20, 2009 @ 12:07 am

51. I gues they dont learn anyhting, because we have ask the developer to bare the defect but they failed to do so. They give alots of execuses, till u can see the swimming pool is any eye soar the water is in bad condition. like a drain water. All buyer we welcome you’ll to make a visit to our HERON Residency befor you buy a property with this cheap developer.

53. As long as you can bear the risk of non-completion, risk of bad quality and so on, go ahead and book a unit. Don’t blame developer, banks or others for your decision. I suppose those who buys a unit has made an informed decision.

54. I have always find it amusing to look at all the angry and negative comments here about The Zest. It just makes me wonder what is the agenda behind of all these ppl. Come on, the project is already 80% sold off even without a show unit!! Wake up already
Comment by goodness — August 7, 2009 @ 11:29 pm

55. yes, as i said before come and see the complete project by DaruDinasti, than you will know y re we frus and giving bad comments. Their exisitng project is The Heron Residency. Just to share with you they mention The Heron Residency is a Service Aparmtent wit 5 star facilities, but they developer cant event complete the corridoor with tiles.. Can u imagine how it looks than? ! ? !
Comment by ray — August 12, 2009 @ 3:07 pm

56. hmmm if i remember correctly, Heron is not very expensive right? and even given a 400k highclass condo in subang equipped with thumbprint access also does not haf tiles for corridoor wor.. what do u expect for your Heron ??
Comment by goodness — August 17, 2009 @ 9:45 pm

57. but un the building plan they promise to lay tiles on the corridoor wor! Thats y we expect for the tiles in Heron.. FYI thumbprint equipment are for security reason only. The tiles works is need to show that Heron is a well completed residential project to proof, as whtt been promise by the developer…
Comment by ray — August 21, 2009 @ 2:12 pm

58. I understand from one of the consultant that they have no action plan to build the ramp as telling by them, till that time all Zest Resident will need to take U turn at TPM which is really really jam due to very very high traffic. My goodness…….. Comment by Lee — August 22, 2009 @ 7:31 am

59. @ray i see, if they promised liao then it is really their fault.
Comment by goodness — August 22, 2009 @ 11:19 pm

60. Its not a fault but its a great lie from the developer. Can such developer been trusted for their upcoming projetcs!!! Watch Out!!! Comment by ray — August 25, 2009 @ 8:23 pm

61. @Ray then when you ask them back , what do they say? Or could it be that you were conned by just one of the irresponsible SA?
Comment by goodness — August 26, 2009 @ 11:11 pm

62. Most of the abandoned housing projects are almost 100% sold. Do check around - Platinum Damansara, Newgate Avenue (developed by listed company), Rhythm Avenue (developed by listed company), Nusa Mewah (developed by listed company), Villaria Condominium …do your research before making a decision to buy from a plan! Comment by MH — August 27, 2009 @ 6:53 pm

63. @goodness, We have form a commite and we’re looking forward for the developer to look forward on this matter, but seems like the developer is not coperating with us. They kind of CUCI TANGAN.. ler..

dude dun worry so much, there are good and bad comments. Actually one of SA brought me to Heron, swimming is nice and clean, playground is well maintain. I agree the quality is a little low is because the condo selling price is cheaper. What you pay is what you get....at least all their projects are abandon.......cheer up.......pay a visit to Heron see it yourself........ biggrin.gif

I was told there is a unit available at Tower A, 8th Floor, Type B.
Price is RM298,888 .. I was interested but i think this is too expensive, compared to the similar unit in Tower A.
This is a developer price and they seems to be taking advantage of the late buyer

Of course, early bird gets the early worm smile.gif

This price increase is nothing. An example, studios in Tropics@Tropicana City was sold for 180k-190k just 2 years ago, and the last studio units this years was sold for 300k.



Moral of the story : Dont wait if u saw a decent deal.

I agree but the price should go up gradually. and this Apt is not even built yet.
within the same month, the developer is increasing the price by 20k for the same Tower .. I will say this is unusual practise

Hey Bran, the starting price for the entire project was 225k, (ok, only 4 studio units are sold less than 200k which are around 600 sqft), No one had gotten type B for 180k.. btw, just curious where you find out the price to be 180k smile.gif

It is not unusual, for the price to increase, check with other projects as well smile.gif

The price increased in a very short period because the sales is "unusually" fast compare to another development, like Titiwangsa Sentral as describe by babana..

Other projects might not adjusted their price because of slower sales preformance and only adjust the price after a year.. (like Sxxxx Wxxx)

Its just a supply and demand theory wink.gif ... the waiting list is long as I heard from developer

From Malaysianinsider website 14 sept 2009

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 14 — Syarikat Prasarana Negara Bhd (SPNB) has proposed two new extensions for the Kelana Jaya and Ampang Light Rail Transit (LRT) lines which are estimated to cost RM7 billion.

Managing Director Datuk Idrose Mohamed said the proposed Ampang LRT line extension will begin from the Sri Petaling Station, passing through Kinrara and Puchong before ending at Putra Heights, covering 17.7km with 13 new stations.

The Kelana Jaya LRT extension will begin from the Kelana Jaya Station, passing through 13 new stations, including Subang Jaya and USJ, before ending at Putra Heights, covering 17km.

Idrose said SPNB would raise RM4 billion in bonds to part finance the project which is expected to be completed by end of 2012.

All the stations will have facilities such as lifts, escalators, suraus, public phones and toilets.

The stations will also be equipped with facilities for the disabled such as ramps, lifts, tactile tiles, low ticket counters and toilets.

The proposed new alignment will be on display for three months from tomorrow for the public to give their feedback by visiting the designated locations or visit the dedicated website set up for the purpose, he told a media briefing.

SPNB said a conditional approval was obtained on Aug 25 while the final go-ahead will be received after the public display.

The five places where the new alignment will be on display are the Department of Railways at Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin; Kuala Lumpur City Hall building at Jalan Raja Laut; Petaling Jaya City Council building at Jalan Tengah; Subang Jaya Municipal Council building at Persiaran Perpaduan USJ5, Subang Jaya; and Shah Alam Municipal Council building at Persiaran Perbandaran in Shah Alam.

The display hours are from 9am to 5pm from Monday to Friday. It will be closed on weekends and public holidays.

All feedback will be channelled to the Department of Railways. The public can write in their comments in the log book placed at the display locations.

The public can also view the alignment via www.dor.gov.my and give their feedback. — Bernama

This is certainly very good news for all Zest purchasers.....hopefully, there won't be much protests from the existing residents....fingers cross that the construction works for the LRT will begin very soon.....smile.gif

Existing purchasers must sell their units only at minimum RM300 per sq. ft. ok?? thumbup.gif

LRT is another bonus to the zest. sure the price and rental at the zest will going up. hopefully the nearest station will have enough car park. The most important thing is the ramp. Until now haven't see any action from developer yet. Any one have any update about the ramp?

Heard from SA, the construction work of the ramp MUST start together with the LRT because there will be overlapping of the ramp across the LRT (heard that the LRT station will be in the middle of the road, and therefore 'crashing' with the ramp ...). If not because of this issue, the construction of the ramp should start somewhere last month already.

ps: Also heard the the proposed start construction date is next year Feb ... Anyone now looking at this forum (developer, sales agent, spy tongue.gif ) got some 'REAL' news to share????

Despite lots of complaining, but i don't see Heron is on fire sale and subsale asking price still holding pretty well at RM235k or RM240 psft.. Not much subsale for Heron at the time being.. Not to mention, it is leasehold..

Probably the rental yeild is still attractive..

There are always a lot of complain over the internet.. can look at Avilla thread where owners complain a lot, the developer is IOI who is a reputable developer..

My 1st apartment Villa Pavilion also having tonnes of complain.. the thread rolls on to 130 pages, but buyers and agent still knocking my door asking me to sell.. Other owners still manage to sell their units with a healthy profit, rental yeild still holding well at 6%.

I guess we have to be selective and make our own judge and be rationale when screening thru the complain.. like what Pai said, cant really expect a 1st class finishing by only paying Rm100k for a unit.. I have not heard of Heron facing issues like wall crack, foundation failure or what so ever life threatening defects, but more of the low quality finishing which is understandable by the price that is paid. Other issues like maintanence issue such as milky pool etc..

Honestly, given the price we paid for Zest, think the specs given are better than Setia Walk which was priced 40% higher. TT is a newbie, so they had to give more to woo buyers, whereby SP use reputation and branding to sell their units.

Heron issues IMO are small, fixable issues. Explain why price has gone up still despite lots of "complaints". At the end of day, "value" always prevail.

Expected to be completed in three years, the exercise will see the extension of the Kelana Jaya Line and Ampang Line by 17km and 17.7km respectively.

This is certainly very good news for all Zest purchasers.....hopefully, there won't be much protests from the existing residents....fingers cross that the construction works for the LRT will begin very soon.....smile.gif

Existing purchasers must sell their units only at minimum RM300 per sq. ft. ok??  thumbup.gif

I think its likely Station 03 (it states between Bkt Jalil and Kinrara, where Zest is located near to this border)
Station 04 is Giant Kinrara
Station 05 is Kinrara Industrial Park

Bingo, the one with star is with multilevel carpark smile.gif

Think closest to us would be Giant Kinrara? Next thing to hope for would be feeder bus rclxms.gif

All,

You might want to explore

http://www.lrtextension.com/

The full map can be found in the URL below. You can even zoom in and out.
http://www.lrtextension.com/index.php?opti...mid=119〈=en



From the looks of it, STN03 could be right after the ramp, in front of Hap Seng Star. Not sure if this is the exact location, but it pretty much confirm the LRT station is nearby. The other one STN04 is right in front of Giant.

STN 04 : 100-150 meter away from Caltex petro station
STN 05 : Taman perindustrian Kinrara - just infront of the livina funiture depot / 150-200 meter away from both Kinrara Shell & Puchong/Sungai besi highway shell station.

There is no doubt that LRT will be one of the boom factor for the zest.

Lets hope the finishing of the zest is of good quality for now.

What they didn't plan is to link these two lines somewhere in between.

Imagine if Zest residence were to travel to Subang Parade stop. You gotta stop at Putra Heights and change line. You have 20 stations to stop at. Average of 4 mins per station travel + stopping for passenger (very fast already), it is 80 mins of travel time/standing time. shocking.gif

Too many stops already come to think of it, rendering it useful only for very short distance travel instead of long distance.

I dont take LRT nowaday so I may be out of sync... but why would the STN3 and 4 is of worry for traffic when there is no parking available for the station? Folks either depends on buses or pick up. No different than other station with park and ride where there is more car. Having said that park and ride currently are tend to be located on major road with more lane which allow a bigger bottleneck.

Even if STN3 and 4 have parking, traffic will be horrendous when the Jln Puchong at TK will be using the LRT line. You better hope and pray they widen the Bukit Jalil bypass. Even currently that 2 lane in front of Zest is WAY Too narrow for comfort given the speed of the traffic.

My reason is should there be a car park in place, you can drive there yourself, park your car there and board the train. But if no parking facilities, you would need people to send you over there. Multiply that with hundreds or thousands of cars everyday then you might get many cars waiting to drop off their passengers blocking entry/exit points from/ out of Kinrara.

Anyhow I am no traffic expert. Just expressing my own views. Cheers.

That prolly unavoidable during peak hours just like passing any train station. The google earth pic show it's closer to Hss than zest which is good because it's away from residence. Not so for the cahaya residence.

Hi Zesters,

Finally there is some light after our much hopes, prayers and discussions.

Hope we still have more good news on the ramp and followed by a smooth constructions and delivery of the vacant possession ahead of time, that would be the best of the best !!!!

In the meantime, can any zesters kindly help to translate the location of each of the stops for Ampang LRT line extension please?

Agree that from Zest if wanna go to Kelana Jaya station that means have to endure 26 stops. I think we need to provide feedback that from Kinrara should have an intersection at Sunway, and the alternate split goes to Putra Heights hub, just like Chan Sow Lin Station splits into Ampang and Sri Petaling. May cost more, but long term planning should be good and rakyats' precious time not wasted.
