@constant,
Ah well... expensive is relative; looking at the take up rates of the other developments.

The only problem I have with Tropicana Grande (other than $ issue) is that it faces West. That's also the issue I have with WestSide One.

@Pai,
The thing is, there's only this up-market condo in the ss2 and surrounding PJ areas unlike at MK where every other development's kinda up-market, etc.

@ernie,
Hmm.. my mom's always home but I think they delivered the fugly gift via courier.

@Pai,
Uh... I wouldn't consider myself an early bird with Five Stones; I made the decision only in their 2nd phase, which was also the last phase but ah well am pretty happy with the design/layout of the unit except for a couple of nitty gritty stuff.

I believe they're trying to complete the whole project at one go.

@sonycamera,
I believe Five Stones started off at about RM450 psf. In the last launch it was about RM525-550 psf.

@cashrich,
I'm not sure about 2013 but I'm giving the property market the next 5 years before the bubble bursts

@sonycamera,
I sure am hoping you're right - the only reason I purchased it in the first place.

I'm still pretty undecided about moving into Five Stones; guess for now there's no plans unless the folks wanna move out of our current house and experience condo living

@cashrich,
If you're so sure it's going up up up , did U invest in it then?

@wodenus,
Shush...

@Pai,
IMHO I think it's better if it's completed all at one go so there's no construction going on esp for those who's planning to shift in asap. The only bad thing I can think of is supply vs demand in the rental and perhaps subsale market *g*

@cashrich,
Wanna share which units you purchased?

@sonycamera,
I didn't take up the interest absorption scheme so the sooner it's completed the better it is for me; makes no difference

No idea on the commercial buildings behind Five Stones but it definitely won't be too tall a building lah, from the main plans.

Am not sure what Five Stones would command but am hoping it'll be nothing short of RM600 psf

@Pai,
Lol. Ah well.. it goes the same for other developments

Speaking of which, did someone here say he was looking for a nice unit at Five Stones on sub-sales? I've a unit I'm looking to sell; it's the 2,909 psf unit looking into the pool area on the "lower" floors.

Anyone interested, please PM me `k?

@sonycamera,
Yes that's the one; 2 units p/floor with uhm.. sort off a private lift entrance/foyer.

Ah well.. am just giving someone else the chance to make $; I know I'll probably make more $ if I could wait but need the $ for some other purchases and I either give up this or the link house

@tpleong,
Yes it's allowed; I double checked that with SDB before I made the purchase; that's the only good thing about it *smiles*

@sonycamera,
I'm waiting for someone to offer me RM600 psf for mine - heck, I'll even go with RM599 psf

@sonycamera,
Yes it's the same one as the show unit Eh.. nothing is ever too big ! Imagine Casaman (DPC)'s link houses were 5k+ sqf!

So any buyers or not?

@cashrich,
As long as I haven't signed on the dotted line, the contract ain't in effect So.. any buyers?! Dang.. I forgot to call the salesperson to let her know I'm serious about letting go of the unit!

@sonycamera,
I've not been there for quite a while now; the entrance should be somewhere opposite the school

@sonycamera,
Not yet.. and I haven't really quite contacted my sales person to tell her I've intentions of selling. Have no idea what the going price is for those link houses but IMHO, RM600-650k is a bit high for that area; then again, it's just me!

@sonycamera,
It's also true that land is no longer too available in the PJ area and people do tend to upgrade hence more luxurious developments in the final available plots

Eh.. what 1.4m... 1.5m lah!

@kevin23,
I beg to differ. ss2 is a 'developed' area; the place is what it is right now and can only get better, not worse. Plus that's the last piece of land in the surrounding areas. I'm not saying KD is no good but well, KD is v v v big - in fact, the next big development's gonna be along the Guthrie Highway [am not sure if it's called the Guthrie Highway or whatever the name is] but I'm referring to the land by old Terminal 3 Subang spanning all the way into KD.

I'm also quite positive U aren't gonna believe people are actually paying RM20k to live in Sg Buloh, right?

@sonycamera,
Like I said, I haven't really done anything to sell the unit. The option of moving in is still viable, even with the sale of this unit

@tycoonman,
Have no idea what the subsale prices are as I haven't really been on the lookout. I do however have a 2,909 unit available for sale. Am looking to let it go between 600-620 psf so if you're interested, drop me a PM.

@yipwh,
I don't really agree 100% with ur statement but hey I'm biased only because I bought into Five Stones

@sonycamera,
Should be around there since SDB intends to handover the entire project at the same time. I purchased in Jan/Feb 2010 so given 3 years, it should be ready no later than March 2013 but since I bought into the last phase, I would assume the others to be ready at least 6-9 months earlier.

@tycoonman,
Certainly. I ain't in a rush plus if can sell then I liquidate lor otherwise I just hold it and uh... well, everything stays as status quo

Sure lah fair price, I ni memang very fair one
