zoomckng, sorry dun mean to offend anyone but to share what i heard and to make sure and get first hand info from people who actually stay there about the actual situation..enjoy your stay...

Red Coffee: Have u verify yr statement before u post it here, i know sharing is caring but by just passing a statement saying TDU feng shui is bad which will hurt the current owner and potential buyer. Or u have other purpose to scared off those potential buyer so that u can sapu more unit for goreng?

haha..i hope u sapu all the units if i can afford to...

hehe... i only can afford 1 unit DSL if the price is right. Any plan to take up a bad feng shui house in KR?

Because he is bumi.

Well, I am also owner, bought from Mahajaya. I saw the layout. GF the same, 1st floor, move the toilet to the balcony so no more balcony which is good! and overall there's about 200 sq feet increase in size compare to mahajaya design. Also, there will be alarm system included. They are also proposing autogate but still in proposal stage. And Actually the price will be more than 600k. Probably around 650-700k. It is not gated only guarded because of a surau and dewan orang ramai around our place. Well, same as you, I paid 500k as well and MS told me no increase in price when we go and sign the new S&P. Imagine, we gain so called 100k++ in value and you get more in term of infrastructue. Behh.. honestly it sounded too good to be true. Must take time read the new S&P.

Also I am not sure if we need to pay legal fee on developer side, with Maha no need but with MS, not sure. This I need to check. And one funny thing is the developer lawyer for Maha keep asking me to sign S&P. He is bloody kan cheong so I need to dig from him what the heck is happening.

OOpss sorry Teck.. Ur nick name look like Patrick..

Wow.. Im so impressed with the upgrading done by MS. For me , kinrara is the best location. Currently im staying at SR near BK 5. Bought it at RM132K, now price increase to RM200K.. So, it happened again at KR. Easy money.

I also called Swan & partners to ask the real situation. But their answer so fishy..

their vision is to become a property supermarket (but dey tell you dey are "lifestyle developer" LOL).....

mrkenjiro: Is the sales gallery open to public to view the plan? Did MS allow you to have a copy of the new layout? Can share with us on 2.5 storey also?

So the RM700K for DSL maybe true la...

agree agree

damn expensive....leasehold somemore....=='

Hi Brainworker,

Yes. The sales gallery is open to public but it is not open for sales yet. It's just for registration purposes. I heard they will open up the sales soon (but not sure the tentative date). The layout is basically drawing they put on the wall. It's not in paper format or anything. 2.5 storeys layout is also there and it if very very beautiful!!! The previous Maha version where the GF doesn't have exit at the kitchen area has been revamped. Now they raise the dining floor a foot or two higher with the living room lower but dining+kitchen higher. I can only say a brilliant design compare to Maha. Anyway you have to see it to know what I mean. The price for 2.5 will range from 800k to 900k.
Also, security will cost 100 bucks and clubhouse - 50 bucks. Both must paid by the owner.

Hi mrkenjiro, thanks for the info. Appreciate it. Maybe will go there over the weekend.

when the lawyer called me about this, i ask him back, got such good thing developer giving free 100k upgrade? then he answered only me doubt abt that, other owners are very very happy when heard this news.

haha, now i know i'm not the only one, in this business world there is no such good thing.

must read the S&P very very clearly

mrkenjiro, sounds like the new S&P is ready? please update here if there is any hidden rule that unfair for us which are "early bird owner"

I am not sure when will the S&P be ready but I am sure as soon as it is ready, we'll have 'lawyer' flying in informing us to sign it asap . Well, my take on why the lawyer is so 'hardworking' in updating us is they are worried that we might take MS's lawyer instead of them for the S&P and the loan agreement. Anyway it's very obvious there's something fishy as I have never encounter such 'hardworking' lawyer calling me directly updating me every details

maybe they dont want to lose this business, haha

what details they update u? can share?

If you are to sign, what is in it for you? Would you be paying for a MYR600k ++ rather than < MYR500k house which was what is the initial contract states?

A S&P is a contract, it must be honored, unless the new contract is a better deal.

its ok. but repeating or relaying wat other ppl say is a bad habit. best if u actually stayed there or been around the area. use your own judgement and comments. we dont wan to cloud the decision making process of potential buyers in KR.

Was there last weekend, here are my thoughts. Sorry can't remember what the color codes mean

http://a.yfrog.com/img687/5491/kinrararesidence.jpg

- pricing at RM700k for 2-storey, RM800k and above for 3-storey but not confirmed
- medium cost apartment will be situated nearby next to 2b not good IMO
- leasehold as people have mentioned already
- access is very easy although I foresee a traffic lights at the junction going in/out at Jalan Kinrara 6
- design seems very simple compared to the other Mah Sing properties
- club house is in the semi-D section, separate from link house owners. You have to drive out of your section to the club house.

Overall I don't have a good feel for this one compared to recent Mah Sing projects. Garden Residence (Cyberjaya) seemed to have a nicer house design and better master plan plus it was freehold and relatively cheap (in the beginning). Kemuning Residence was a much smaller development with a fantastic zero lot design and all the houses were within walking distance of the club house. Unfortunately that was also leasehold so I walked away too.

Aiming to get a house for stay, personally I'm looking for a decent corner lot but one half of Kinrara Residence will be facing the apartments which is a big no no for me after living in Vista Komanwel overlooking Taman Esplanad

Hi tishaban, just to clarify: Is the medium cost apartment sharing the same access road with pahse 2B? From the response of buyer with Mahajaya, it seems like they are alright with the design from MS. Different people different taste.

The colour code basically means 2 sty, 2 1/2 sty, 2 sty superlink, semi D and bungalow.
The medium cost appt will be opposite surau/dewan orang ramai...
I asked about the design because i found it similar to Maha except 1F and they told me the design nowadays is about the same, also because we bought it from maha first that's why they are sticking to it. but for 2 1/2 the design is better than maha. Comparing to Garden and Kemuning, it is definitely not as 'modern' but in term of location, I would say Kinrara offers the best 'place' to stay with forest reserve at the background and yet 30-45 mins drive to KL city, 20 mins to Sunway, etc. Well, you can't get all can you. Have to weigh the options available vs the $$.
