Also folks, if you're a resident or someone keen to have a look see, join our Facebook community too, open to all, https://www.facebook.com/groups/3916445755076929

Latest news is the upcoming AGM, and the redressing of the commercial water rates to the lowest possible at RM6 instead of RM36

So technically, the developer AND the residents have managed to seek redress to convert both water and electricity to more of the residential tariffs or special consideration

Received our first water billing at a much reduced commercial rate (RM6 it is). Not sure what was the process but happy its not the maximum RM36 minimum

Don't know what magic there, but happy ta global delivered this outcome

The will be quite a number of residential and commercial planned after Flora including a Mampu Milik , two phases of residential towes (4 towers, and a hotel). The park is a public park as per the MBPJ Town Planning.

they have already moved the HTC once, from then middle of the land to the side closer to the elevated MRT track. this effort and HTC rezoning was also reported the MBPJ town plan.

by actual site photos , it seems likely only the mampu milik is adjacent to the HTC ,

as for the other residential towers , the worst it is wil just that the HTC is in your line of sight , maybe at facility deck level, but get the BSD facing units or highest units, should not be much grief. Ativo Suites will lose some the existing beautifil skyline and mountainline tho

haha, part of us welcome the new L&G condos and shops, as it means more nee shops, more residents, means more footfall, and likely a more vibrant Damansara Avenune and new L&G

but another part us is sad we will miss some of rhe great skyline views, esp during sunsets and even thunderstorms

oh, forgot to tell you, I'm in the JMC . You win some, you lose some, artist impressions ma. its the same game eveywhere most of the time in malaysia. ta global also quite smart and cheeky with the artists impression, the webpage have a full disclaimer at the footnote, how to sue?

. nonethess our people here are too keen enthusiastic with the dart, its so popular and frequented that not only have we to pay yo replace darts, the electronic score keeping for one of those dart boards failed . lucky the developer replaced it under dlp, that would have cost us RM600+ thats how much each of those boards cost... its going to be a risk and pain post DLP

hahaha we're are suckers and sulkers for artists impression. but this theatre room has become so popular (because they gave us full commercial karaoke system and the boombox). also because we don't charge pay per use, so everybody wants a piece

too popular until hogging ensued and we had to install quota

stil we are only at 50% occupancy because a lot of the homes are holidy homes for expats. We just had our first small community meet and greet Karaoke Night

and surprised to find that in just a two dozen of us who turned up that Sunday night, we have French, Russian, Korean and Moroccan in the mix

P.S. The Ta Global rep mentioned a cinema is coming to the Phase 1 Ativo Annexe , so might as well have the cinema experience there, while our theatre room more for karaoke and children's movie night (next get together planned)

by the way, any one from Ativo Suites but still holding out from joining the Telegram Community and mixing with you neighbours, with increasingly occupancy and people completing theor renovations, things are revving up, do join up soon, 1st badminton friendly in the works, followed by the taichi class

more clubs and hobby get together are coming too

So far so good, at the very basic haha, every sunrise and sunset is a sight to behold, at least until Annexe is there , then its a slightly different view

Tower A and B at 41 and 40 floors respectively

EV charging is being setup, expected ready soon. Because the building is designed and envisioned in 2015-2016, they did not think about it then. So it is now being retrofitted. Short term wise, the Management is planning to start small, with max up to four ports for both Towers, buit can expand if there is demand. Otherwise, there are also current EV charging facilities at the adjacent Plaza, which is a 1-2 min slow walk with direct access to Ativo Suites

Yesterday soft launch (18/11/23), by invite only, so went there to kepo. I hear today it is open to public who registered interest. Amaya very few micro units, only one 500k/500sqft per floor, so that makes up to max 120 micro units only . And now only released Tower A, so likely only 60+ supply of micro 500k studios.

If we have LnG recent LiVista launch is a barometer, there is still potential buyers, as not many developments have a combo of leafy neighborhood, MRT, lower density, good schools and easy access to both PJ and KL arteries

Rental market should be turning healthy as in the community, as the grouses on not being able to rent out has died down, and some reported managed to rent outat 2k+ per month, so hopefully it remains as a healthy growth

P.S>The Mall they say will be ready by 2027, with cinema and 120+ shops, so that could be a mid life boost for DA

We shall see. This developer Ta Global has never shied away from pricing high (like DPC) - and still manage to sell every unit, and as a more or less "boutique" developer, they seem to be less pressed to sell and move on to a next project to keep the business chugging

That said, while the current market is recovering, it is still soft, and Amaya residences have more supply than their previous offerings here. And there is also supply from LnG right beside it.

Upsides though, there will be a mall under Amaya which will be completed before Amaya, and it is the only modern Mall on this side of the tollgate, so it might well work to serve the underserved areas in this part of KL that's growing affluent

Amaya also enjoys the bling of being in this part of KL/Selangor, where its at the crossroads of multiple highways DUKE-DUKE2, LDP, NSE, MRR2, SUKE, SPRINT and short cuts with easy access to KL, PJ, MontKiara, Shah Alam, Genting. And there is also the MRT direct access (via a 500 meter walk via a sheltered link bridge). Kepong, Menjalara is also nice for being cheap in food costs, while DPC and Bandar Utama is just 5 min away if we wanna spend more. So this place has its upsides. Plus, who doesn't want a leafy neighborhood that's close to KL and PJ

Time will tell, if they can sell, or if many people still fall under their marketing spell. Definitely not going to work for flippers looking to make a quick buck, but more for HODL looking for future value

Yes, i currently stay at Damansara Avenue, thats why I get to share many things I am experiencing here now. I used to stay DPC. When it come to accessibility and traffic jams, It all depends on where you are heading. If you use MRR2 or Jalan Kepong , or head to Sungai Buloh, yes, there will be perpetuals jam at most hours. If you come from DUKE2, yes there is that interchange section bottle neck, but thats only an added 5 min or merging traffic, over that flyover, its all clear at most time of the day.

But if you plan a trip to KL, or to PJ or to Sungai Buloh (from DA) , never use MRR2 or Jalan Kepong. There are better alternatives.
To get onto DUKE 2 to go to KL, better use the U turn and use the alternative route through DPC/Menjalara. The Decathlon exit to DUKE 2 should also be quite smooth

You could also opt to use the small roads at Mont Kiara and end up in Sprint (depending on time of day)

I've not used MRR2/Jalan Kepong for a long time. If you use MRR2 ort Jalan Kepong to get to DA, expect KMs long craziness during most times of the day, esp rush hour


Vis a vis, the jam for DA is rather tame if compared to the peer jams at Damansara Perdana, Ara Damansara, Bandar Utama or even DPC nowadays. At these places you will have a traffic jam at the doorstep.

One reason DA is still not that bad is because density at BSD is still not very high, but might change with the many new condos coming up

The developer is saying they will have new roads and exits introduced soon for the DA master development, so that we will not have to all be bottled up at the current BSD exits. You can visit the show room and see their masterplan scale model. the roads shown are pretty much what the developer have submitted to MBPJ, approved, to be built in stages

Its true , the pricing is not going to be for short term flipping banking on capital gains through appreciation. For quick gains look for the hot and speculative developments buoyed by FOMO purchasers or aspirational property investors.

If you get this area as investment, you are hedging bets that this DA masterplan will blossom in time, maybe over a decade or more, with you betting that this development will grow until there are enough attractive factors to make DA a spot that (maybe) can play DPC's investment game. Esp knowing that DPC will eventually run out of space for new development in a few more years, so perhaps DA can/may fill the void in the decade long run hahaha

Of course when it comes to masterplans and space for growth potential within the vicinity of DA, there is Kiara Bay (but the current developments are commercial strata title and on leasehold land). Closer to KL but sandwiched between MRR2 and Jalan Kepong, only time will tell if the nightmare traffic gridlock here can be fixed. Both roads are already at max capacity with no room for expansion. Kiara Bay has space and the surrounding mature areas of Kepong and Jinjang, so I see it has a potential to become a behemoth masterplan that is successful and close to KL proper. I've viewed the masterplan, and its a lot of supply and density, but spread out over many years

Further down the road there is also Kwasa near Sungai Buloh (where there is a 50:50 mix of undeveloped leasehold and freehold land, if I recall 1,354 is leasehold , and 1,266 freehold, but a large chunk of the full Kwasa area is already surrendered to MRT, DASH and government for infrastructure. And I read only 2,259 acres at Kwasa is available for development, but this 2,259 acres also have to be divvied up between town councils MBPJ and MBSA, so likely the Kwasa will be a patchwork of developers rather than one with a masterplan

Then there is also Damansara Central Park, but if you have visited the site, its going to be more a risk of oversupply as EXSIM needs to maximize ROI and while they play white knight to fix Empire City. There is potential as a " master plan " if done right, but the developments here are for people who don't mind hyper density. Even adjacent ForestHill bungalows is squeezing another two blocks of condo development into this already saturated area. The whole Central Park Damansara area is leasehold and and the D series of condos here are also commercial strata title

There is also available land at the interior of Damansara Perdana, namely the MK land developments (but they seem to not be developing much, and the land is more suitable for low rise and the master plan doesn't seem primed towards township. Access to this area is also hemmed in by the projek sakit Empire Residences. Also land here is also leasehold

DBKL might try to wrest Kampung Sungai Penchala for development, but with the available land here Malay reserve (and a lot of Malay big wigs already have private residences here, unlikely to see potential)

Mont Kiara is Mont Kiara, a patchwork of land owned by individual developers, so there will not be a masterplan. So Mont Kiara new developments will be leveraging a different set of current and future attractive factors, Which is wholly different from the type/style of neighborhood from BSD/DA. There is a number of plots left for growth along Jalan Kiara Desa 8, 1, 5 and 3 + North Kiara. Further inland though its Malay reserve land (e.g. the projek sakit Serene Mont Kiara).

I see potential in Sime Darbys' KLGCC and their master plan. The available land here Sandwiched between TTDI and Bukit Damansara to the East and West, a nature reserve (Bukit Kiara Park)/fengshui hills and SPRINT highway on its North and South , this is premium address, esp with the gold club that comes with the properties, and plenty of land. This area, if done properly, I feel will give the same leafy neighborhood + bustling commercial periphery. Like the BSD + DA combo). Great potential with its quick side by side access into TTDI, Bukit Damansara and pan-KL connectivity via KERINCHI/SPRINT/DUKE2. It also have MRT access to boot. But one visit to this area, you will find it priced even higher than DPC/DA

But this area is where I will earn as much as I can and plan to retire in a future low rise or landed here, still a long whole to go , as the premier part this development (adjacent to the nature reserve) will likely be the last to be developed

So yeah, for a place that is near KL and PJ, we are running out of choices. Much less if we want to find a masterplan that provides a balance between leafy neighborhood / vibrant commercial activity (DA south seems to want to follow Megamall model). And with MRT to boot (that is if public mass transport may or may not become a thing for Malaysians)

This flyover is on both TA Global (developer's) masterplan for DA (Damansara Avenue), and also has been on MBPJ approved town plan over two revisions (and in the latest revision). So it depends on when TA Global will build it. Unlikely in the short term, and it will take at least 5-10 years for them to complete DA north at their well known leisurely pace haha

And I predict only then they will start developing DA south (where the flyover is), so fingers crossed with 15 years?
