is like when u wanna buy but u spoiled with choices...if u dun buy, the price will increase...so, psychologically, as kiasu as we all know, we may kena trap and buy..

is like buying a shares, when the price up everyone chasing it, when it is down no body care...

is like phase 1 fully sold, pls register for phase 2...later agent approach u, or got some ppl fail to get loan..u wan or not but need pay 5k undertable money  rclxms.gif
as for break in, i heard petty thieve came in via the toilet small window, owner didnt lock it...so far, didnt hear any from direct go in (main grilled door)..with block b n c on going renovation, to smuggle out a laptop is very easy...so lock up the windows will do

You are talking about my rented house here which was broken into. I had already made a police report. They stole around RM30,000 worth of goods. And you are right, 2 lap top missing, 1 ipad, expensive watches and jewellery all gone! If you rob me now, I have nothing.

Just to give you advice when you buy a house here, the window quality is no good especially at the toilet because it cannot be closed properly. I just moved in, how to get it fix it so soon? You will only know more defects when you actually move in. Unfortunately, the developer does not take the trouble to check and fix all. Only depend on us reporting it. If we don't report, the developer escape and say it's our issue.

Midfields contractor also take so long to respond to fix defects? If the security is good, the guards would check people come in and out. When i just moved in, security access card door also tak ada. Said want to fix but didn't. Only fixed it 1 day after I report the burglary!

Let me tell you other security problems here. If you are a robber, welcome you to rob.. very easy:-

1. Security guard will conveniently go "missing" at 2 fixed time of the day, around 7.am to 8.30am. ... good time for burglar to come. Another good time to steal is around 6pm to 7pm.
2. Security guard at the guard house only does random check. they don't check all people.
3. CCTV only installed in the lobby facing the lift. They claim they have lift CCTV but not sure where it is or just install after the robbery. There is NO CCTV at the emergency stairway entrance.. if you want to rob, i suggest you use this way out.
4. There are contractors doing business at the lower floor, and their door is always open, if you want to rob others, you can steal small valuable things like gold or jewellery, keep in your bag and walk through this contractors "office". You can surely bypass CCTV or security. So far, no action taken to check. Please try to rob and then escape through here.
5. Only 1 security guard per 2 blocks, so even now if the security access card system is in place, many people leave the door open. The guard don't care to help close. So if you want to rob, just wait for the right time. easy.
6. My neighbour upstairs got robbed also, proof of easy robbery and proof that is not totally the owner fault. I'm sure there are more swept under the carpet.
7. On 1 side of the condo block, they did not install common grill to prevent robbery. All other sides have. This might be due to the developer wanting to save cost at our expense. they say YTL good quality, good meh?

Other then security issues, more things to consider if you buy here.

1. Midfields development in the office or shops beside the condo continue their development until up to 10pm sometimes. bloody noisy. Saturday and Sundays also. More new blocks coming up, you sure you can tahan the noise?
2. It's sandwitched between 3 major highways (besraya, KL-seremban, hubungan timur barat), you sure it's quiet here?
3. Internet service: No Telekom or Maxis fixed line.. only YES service or other wireless service is is DEFINITELY not as good and stable as Unifi or Maxis fixed line broadband.
4. Mangement only open from 9am to 6pm Mon to Friday. Too bad for all of us who work during weekdays. You have to take leave if you want need to visit the management office.
5. Super slow response to fix defects. and you will surely see lots and lots of defects unless you are super super lucky... sorry to say that the build quality here is bad and below expectations. If you notice, the wall between the rooms are made of plank.. yes, wood and not cement or bricks...
6. There is an oxidation pond nearby... somewhere near taman desa, and you will get some "smell" sometimes... if you're "lucky" the wind blow that direction.. damn! i feel "lucky" now... yucks!!
7. If you buy the swimming pool view, please be ready for noise of kids shouting every weekend morning or weekdays evenings... more noise..
8. The aircon provided is Haier.. and small horsepower... and can be noisy compared with panasonic. better you buy your own.
9. If you own a HD tv, only block A has HD beyond, for block B or C... too bad then.. wait until next year or don't know when. They won't tell you... so please keep using the blur TV channels... they don't care.
10. Water piping/drainage is kind of bad. If someone from the top floor starts washing their balcony, please be prepared to have artificial rain coming down to your balcony. What kind of YTL design is this??
11. If there is rain, please be prepared to have small flooding at the lobby.. you might wet your shoes just to try to get your card to touch the door access unit
12. Oh, more flooding at the gardens... between block b and c... please bring your boots..
13. There is no parking system for long term visitor to your unit. If you want, you have to email the management. No special access placard given. Don't be surprised if they clamp your visitors car tyres if you stay longer than expected.
14. Their car access system sucks.. it's like touch and go and not smart tag.. you know what i mean? It means you have to wind down your window, then touch it like how you do it for touch and go. Sometimes it doesn't work, so you just sound your car horn. [another way to go in to rob some condo units]
15. this place is like an oasis compared with the surrounding environment. If you drive to tmn sg besi, you will realize how messy it is. you will have to drive through a light industrial area.. and since it's so messy, it doesn't look safe. The police told me this area is of high crime rate.
16. If your neighbour flush their toilet upstairs... you can hear the noise of the water rushing down... much louder than my previous condo unit. Again.. another noisy factor.
17. Not sure if the offices opposite/nearby are of quiet tenants? make sure your lucky stars are aligned..

ok la.. enough of complaints.. what is good here?

1. the landscaping is nice... with gardens... not sure how well it's maintained though
2. many swimming pools
3. gym without smell accumulation & other sports facilities...
4. you have roads leading directly to your lobby area.. very convenient to move things in and out and to pick up people

After staying for almost 3 months... conclusion

i won't buy this place. no long term stay for me too.
if you really want to buy then rent out.. better not stay in unless you're used to the noise and don't mind the bad security and hopefully they improve.
