@sonycamera,
I haven't had a chance to personally look at the building quality of Ameera but initial pictures of a friends' unit (for defect rectification purposes) seems quite ok.

If your friend has found a unit he likes and he is ok with the price, he should just book that unit; that way should someone be interested in the same unit, ur friend has first right of refusal.

@sonycamera,
I'm act pretty happy with the show-unit quality so if it's going to be that it's good enough for me. I hope he likes it; who knows; we (your friend & I) may end up being neighbours *smiles*

@sonycamera,
Yes, SPA signing has started; on scattered basis. So which unit did ur friend get? Y don't U drop in and have a look since you're keen?

@sonycamera,
I've no idea who the tenants are at ss2 mall but it would be good if there's a good supermarket there. As to the rest of the stuff, just the neighbourhood stuff for convenience. For hard core shoppers, there's always 1U

@wodenus,
Only if you're getting one *smiles*

@sonycamera,
I really don't know but SDB has their commercial block just across the river; behind Five Stones so let's hope there'll be more convenience; ss2 mall is pretty convenient since it's walking distance. Doubt I'll wanna walk out to TCM in the blistering heat!

@sonycamera,
Ditto! As with all SDB development's the commercial area is to be rented and not sold. Am sure there's gonna be some shop lots as well as offices; if I shift into Five Stones, i wouldn't mind my office being there

@sonycamera,
Just got some information on "The Westside One, DCP". IMHO it's overpriced lah but well since people are queuing and lining up for it I guess people are just rich rich rich!

Also, looking at the plans, the units are either East/West facing *i dun like* Apparently there was also a 2% loyalty discount for repeat purchase customers of DPC + 3% early bird discount for those who made their purchase last week - the offer no longer stands as of yesterday (I couldn't go last week so I sent dad yesterday!)

Also have some information on their upcoming link houses launch. I think it's gonna be called Casaman:

22x85 (BU: 3900 sq ft) : RM2.1m
24x95 (BU: 5400 sq ft) : RM2.9m
24x85 (BU: 4300 sq ft) : RM2.5m

Looking at the built up, am pretty sure it's gonna be 3 storeys and 5400 sq ft built up is very huge; bigger than most modest bungalows! *gulps*

Ah well...!

@ernie,
Lol. I need to register for a FB account first only then can help U out

@sonycamera,
I'm seriously wondering when this bubble's gonna burst! Ah well.. IMHO this new launch by DPC is really gonna be super high density - with 360 households in a block - compare that with Five Stones

PS: I'm biased

@urb7,
*high5* Prices of properties are getting ridiculous! I seriously believe this bubble's gonna burst but when that's gonna happen.. *shrugs*

The only good thing about all this is that if you own any developments, it's all increased in prices and in leaps and bounds too

@urb7,
I haven't gone back to Five Stones since err the last trip [and that was probably during CNY] hence don't know what's developing with the SStwo mall; am just keeping my fingers crossed whoever shifts in, is gonna benefit me [then again, I haven't decided if I'm moving into ss2!]

@ernie,
EeeeK... Giant?!! Ah well.. better than nothing I guess... whatever happened to Village Grocer I have enough of all these Digital Influence (DI) thingy at the office so when at home, I just turn off

@urb7,
Lol... I want a BSC but with Giant/ss2 prices, can ah?

@urb7,
Ah well.. sooner or later everything's gonna be Bangsar prices; just look at the last few developments which was launched...

Speaking of which, did U go for the uhm.. Sunway Rymba launch?

@urb7,
The weird thing is, the design of the houses didn't capitalise on the forest! There's no view of the forest from the living room.

Ahh.... I thought you're back mah!

@urb7,
Dining set?! Er.. U call that dining set meh?! I call that rubbish - and before I dug deeper, I thought they were painted tiles !

@urb7,
I don't think it's a dining set; it's like those photo-frame plates (minus the photo-frame).

Am pretty bad at description... hope U understand If U want, I give U mine lah

@sonycamera,
Ain't too impressed with the show unit at Surian Damansara; also it may be the last available condo at MD but there's gonna be a whole bunch when See Hoy Chan start launching theirs; beginning with Bukit Utama 9.

@Phoeni_142,
Whilst I agree with you the bubbles are only affecting "selected" developments, but the areas surrounding it will be affected too - it might not increase to that of RM600 psq but overall it would have increased the actual value of the asset.

@urb7,
I'm definitely with you on ur last statement. Given an option, I prefer a proper G+G (something in the likes of Sierramas)!

@Pai,
Ah well.. timing was also right - then again, wouldn't Sam Ling (Desa Park City) be smarter?

@sonycamera,
Ah well... like I said it's really timing; in a way, I'm pretty glad I vested into Five Stones but well now got to start saving $ to pay the monthly installments when that starts *siGh*

@Pai,
It's not just the emotions and story, it's also the concept of the place, in a developed area (ss2).
