Guocoland too busy with other mega projects and they have forgotten Rawang Emerald? ><

ltcbomd, is the internal pic your future home?

when did you go into the site? Guess I would want to inspect my future home too!

Tried to sneak into the site last Sunday but failed. Was stopped by a Indian..

But observed generally:

1. Coral houses structurally completed

2. Casis really quite close to chicken farm (like next to it?)

3. Link bridge from emerald east to emerald west remained closed to public & unlikely to open before the ENTIRE Emerald development is completed.. =.=

4. Coral is quite close to highway with traffic orchestra... But at least the high tension tower is far

Any1 has got new updates?

Been to Sales Office to sign the authorization forms for utility application last saturday.. Not sure if this is a good news or bad for Coral, Casis and Coris buyers, but the access to these development upon handover of VP will be via Emerald East bridge.

According to the sales staff, there is no immediate plan to develop the access linking Coral/Casis/Coris to other phases of Emerald West, though eventually there will be 1... Which means, Coral/Casis/Coris residents will have to go through the main road to get to places like Jusco and SRJKC Emerald...

it's pretty common for certain phases to share 1 security guard/entrance if the number of units is considered manageable.

Ya, there will definitely be access from Coral/Cassis/Coris to SMJKC Emerald but the development of access is not in the pipeline for Guocoland. Until and only then these development will largely be considered as situated in Emerald East. Though personally I would prefer the Emerald East access as it is nearer and closer to Toll..

Because the price is attractive and the location is equally good?

what do you mean? can you elaborate more?

But basically under HDA, Developer is not allowed to sell/market any residential project without getting the AP (approved permit). So what Developer usually did is that asking you to pay a small 'deposit', like you are 'expressing' your interest over a future project they are going to launch.

does that mean currently entrance to Coral site is not restricted? So all of us can just go in?

Judging from Ebony & Coral's listing price on iproperty, you got to be real lucky to get one at developer's list price.. you can check with developerif they have any unsold then-bumi-now-released units though.

Good luck!

Just out of curiosity, does anyone have any idea when will Coral be handed over to purchasers? some agents in their ads said Nov'12 while some said early 2013...

This is my time hearing that Amberly comes WITHOUT GnG. As far as I know, all Enerald projects are GnG, despite some phases are sharing the GnG services together.

Checked Guocoland website, never mentioned The availability of the GnG for Amberly. But the description says: ".... safe & private communication " & under features & facilities it state:" A Residents' Association ensures the entire community is looked after......" with a picture of a guard. So I would assume Amberly, being one of a high end development in Emerald, would hv GnG service.

Coral, which was launched together with Amberly, is a terrace house development that is GnG too.

Would suggest for those who have concern over the level & quality of GnG in Amberly & EG to visiti the bungalow precint in Emerald East, to determine if it is up to your expectation? Maybe clarify with SA if the level of GnG will be on par with their bungalow precinct neighbor in EE?

Generally it's a standard practice an RA shall be formed to take k of the residence's welfare, though usually the developer will take care of it for the 1st 2 years b4 handing over to the RA.

About the no tiles over the car porch area... To me I always thought it would always be cement surface & owner would hv to renovate themselves. But I do agree that given Amberly & EG's price tag, GuocoLand should consider tiling it up for the high-end presence.

& ya, as mentioned by some forumer, Guocoland is a sister co of Hong Leong Group, owned by Quek family, one of the top 10 richest family in M'sia. They are indeed not 1st tier property developer though given the diversity of their businesses. But they do hv muscle to deliver their job.

Ya Coral's guard house design not nice!!

But to me it's the quality of GnG & safety that is most critical. Look at dpc, its success is not due to the fancy guardhouse, but the quality of it.

Can't disagree with what you say. But do remember that the 'first impression' is only one of the many factors u should consider during an interview. So to me, safety 1st!

Again, am kinda confident that Guocoland will at least mimic EE bungalow's guard house & perimeter fencing onto EG & Amberly. So it would be good for those who still have concern to visit EE's bungalow precinct?

thanks for clarifying, that's exactly my point here actually. this topic somehow turns hostile lately.

Anyway as said, I do agree for EG & Amberly the guard house and perimeter fencing should be of much better quality given the price tag.

& ya, pls feedback to Guocoland your concern. I understand there is a group of EG buyers requesting modification. Good luck...

Let's see how Guocoland will handle it..

Come to think of that, the guard house is required to take care of slightly less than 200 residences, both coral & coris.. Quite a wide coverage huh?

Since Tenby will be just next to Coral/Coris/Cassis, it would really be good if guocoland is willing to enhance Emerald's appeal. After all, it can be a long term marketing strategy for them also.

Oh really? my last visit noticed Guocoland has marked the land next to Coral as 'International private school'. So it is not Tenby? wondering what school would that be then...

ok, found this atricle on the internet. Hong Bee signed the MoU. So Tenby should be somewhere closer to Anggun projects.

Found a facebook fan page that is dedicated to Coral..

Coral/Coris buyers may 'like' the page so that a more dedicated forum can be formed there?

Cheers.

Anggun seems to meet your expectation. you may choose from exising (Anggun 1), newly built (Anggun 2), or brand new (Anggun 3).

guys, found these 2 articles

It is a bad news for Coral actually. As some of us may be aware by now, Coral is classified as 'Guarded Neighbourhood' instead of 'Gated Community' as the Coral is sold on individual title basis instead of strata basis.

According to the latest Garisan Paduan, observe the following:

a. Guardhouse can be built at the road shoulder but not in the middle of the main entrance.

b. Guardhouse size must not exceed 1.8mx2.4m

c. Guardhouse can be built only after obtaining a temporary construction permit or approval from the local authorities.

d. Perimeter fencing is not allowed.

e. Only manual boom gate is allowed

Some of you may be asking why some of the existing developments under individual title can have middle-of-the-road guardhouses, auto boom gate and bla bla bla. This is because this new GP was effective only since Sept'2010 and will be gradually adopted by states. and the new GP is generally applicable to the new Guarded Neighbourhood schemes.

Accordingly, action such as the demo of fences, guardhouse, and auto boom gates will not be done immediately, except the existing facilities that are deemed as obstructing the entry of residents and govt officials.

Feel free to correct if i'm wrong (which i hope i am).

Accordingly, if Coris and other phases are sold on Individual Title basis, no perimeter fencing, auto boom gate and guardhouse that is located at the middle of the road will be available!!
