QUOTE(accetera @ Jan 22 2011, 12:27 AM) typical of Mah Sing... but u know its CNY time so more expensive more Happiness?? lol Mind if I ask who is behind patchay.com.A few of the buyers for the Kinrara Residence Semi-D spoke to me and told me the main reason they bought was because of the concept i.e. gated and guarded with club facilities. KR really knows how to do Marketing and not just sales. Heard from the Sales office that the intermediate unit for the Semi-D is now going for RM 1.48M only !!!!! This Sunday there is Lion Dance and God of Prosperity at the Sales Office. |

QUOTE(cooolguy @ Jan 22 2011, 07:35 PM) Why is there a price for intermediate unit of Semi-D of RM1.48M while it's already finished? I thought there are only 3 corner units left? Is this new price for the last row that they had yet to release? Will check it out tomorrow. Don't think it is the last 2 rows as they are only planning to sell after the club house is ready. |

Checked with the Sales Office today and found out that they are revising the price of the unsold intermediate units which were previously sold due to loan rejections, buyer pull-out etc to RM 1.48M. Not many units available.They have not yet released the last 2 rows for the Semi-Ds and the price tag is a still a mystery. Wah!!! the early birds have made RM 160K paper gain. |

QUOTE(mrhawk @ Jan 23 2011, 09:41 PM) i wish i could be a developer. reaping profit so easily. no doubt mahsing must have a strong and dynamic team producing right products catering for the needs of market not like the near by developer continue to produce outdated product forcing through your throat. just because it has piece of land at good location. kudos to mahsing that padan muka the nearby developer. When the houses are completed, I reckon that the 2 storey semi-d will go for 1.8M and the 3 storey semi-d at 2.0M. (Or more)by the way, how far would you guys think the price will be 3 years down the road. originally it was for own stay. but looking at rising price i was so tempting to sell. Congratulations to all who have grab the opportunity to purchase earlier. |

QUOTE(mrhawk @ Jan 24 2011, 02:15 PM) i kinda agreed with UFO. Assuming half of the unit is for investment (132 units), RM1.8 mil / unit = total value of RM238 mil. not a small amount to be refinanced. if you checked most of the semi D development in PJ are less then 200 units. so no of units is key here. Everybody is entitled to their opinions and only time will tell. If u look around Puchong especially near Kinrara and nearer to the city (from Puchong), there are not many with gated, guarded and with club house facilities. These are the things buyers are looking for these days. Furthermore I & P are not selling cheap anymore. Their Semi-D at BK9 called Chantek are currently sold at 1.8 M (40X80). 3 storey link vs 2 storey semi D. i think Semi D still win unless the premium is too far. anyway, a lot of things could change 3 years down the road. hopefully by then, the LRT extension is ready and Jalil City materialise. these catalysts will definitely attract people from other area, then the price might be sustainable. otherwise relying on population from puchong and kinrara may be a bit risky. I agree with mrhawk that if the price difference between the 3 storey link house and the 2 storey Semi-D is small, people would go for the Semi-D. The difference has to be substanstial e.g. 3 storey at 1.1 M and Semi-D at 1.6M for people to opt for the 3 storey link house. The only part "imperfect" about KR is the status of the land i.e leasehold. But these days many new developments are leasehold even in Damansara, Kota Damansara and PJ. |

QUOTE(noswear @ Jan 26 2011, 02:27 PM) actually leasehold is fine especially you are buying million dollars property. I wonder how much will the 3 storey link house worth once it is completed?????? Definitely more than 1 M but how much above 1M ??? If it is too high, people will go for the Semi D. All comments are welcome.When you are buying million dollars property means you are rich and is subject to further house upgrading in the future...ie Semi D to Bungalow?? or ...hence the leasehold doesnt matter much to you.... for cases if you are planning to stay for life.......since you rich by buying million dollars house.,...so it wont be much a problem in renewing the leases in future.... lol ..... if for investment lagi not a problem...you will be flipping once it completed....so not much a problem rite?? of course if it is surrounded by freehold....pricing will be a little lower....but should be okay mah.........upside is still more a less the same in percentage term....for example BK house up by 10%....so KR should also more or less the same mah.... so those who bought KR link house and dun like leasehold....can sell to me at developer price....i dun mind to take 1 from u....LOL..... |

QUOTE(UFO-ET @ Jan 28 2011, 08:42 PM) 370/sf is quite fair = 1.22 mil is reachable If the prices of the 3 storey link house are at RM 1.22M and semi-d at 1.5M respectively, which one will people choose??? My opinion is that people will go for the semi-d. If one can afford 1.22M, I am sure they can afford 1.5M.We can not use the basis of comparison on the cost per sq feet for link house and a semi-d and likewise for a bungalow with a semi-d. If your prediction for the price of the 3 storeylink house is true i.e at RM 1.22M, the owners of the semi-d will definitely target their price above 1.8M. Just my opinion. |

QUOTE(alfredfx @ Feb 20 2011, 07:19 PM) have the show houses being errected ? Went to check on the club house in KR today. Coming out very well and pretty impressive. I only hope that PKB can come up with such concept and not offer the same old thing over and over again. I siggest those who are inerested in KR to go and have a look. Seeing is believing. The showrooms for the Semi-D and 3 storey link house are almost ready. As for how much it will be sold when it is ready is everyone's guess. |

QUOTE(UFO-ET @ Feb 28 2011, 09:23 PM) I know there are a group of home owners want to upgrade their 4R3B link house to semi-D in Bdr Kinrara, however the new Semi-D in BK is calling for 1.4 million up, over budget I think it is futile trying to compare SemiDs with Superlink. It is like comparing oranges with apples. We should compare BK Qaseh Superlink with KR Superlink and likewise the KR SemiD with BK Jewels/Pearl/Gems SemiD.alternatively, these batch of buyers has to compromise to settle at KR 3-storey which has advantages & disadvantages Just a simple comparison :- Price : Pearl 1.45 mil, KR 938K Location : BK8 better Vs KR Type : BK8 Pearl - Semi Detached, KR 3-storey : Superlink Land area : BK8 Peral 3400sf (40'x85'), KR 3-storey 1650sf (22x75) Land tenure : BK freehold, KR leasehold Built up : BK8 Pearl 2900sf, KR 3317sf Facade : Pearl (less attractive), KR modern Environment : BK8 vs KR Reserved road : BK8 - 40ft, KR 50ft Concept : BK - Guarded, KR -g+g + club house Quality : Pearl Vs KR (equal) [attachmentid=2067014] BK8 Pearl [attachmentid=2067015] KR Superlink |

QUOTE(UFO-ET @ Mar 1 2011, 08:08 PM) This is a case study, m assuming someone has 1.0 mil budget but looking for new property with Semi-D built up (3000sf up), at least 5 rooms, then KR 3-storey or 2 1/2 can be a choice. Rgds Maybe u can help to provide the comparison between Qaseh Superlink and Kinrara Residence Superlink. Both are roughly RM 1 M (plus minus).Saw some works being done for the LRT along Bukit Jalil Highway today. That is the good news. The bad news is that no money to finance the LRT. Please refer to http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?f...54&sec=business. Need to raise money via bonds. We definitely need the LRT now (better still yesterday) as the Bukit Jalil Highway and LDP is now choked to the maximum. Try using the Bukit Jalil Highway and LDP every morning and u know what I mean. |

Another way to fund the LRT and MRT. Provide cheap land for commercial properties and sell high to the consumers. Refer to http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?f...71&sec=business

What upset me is "Only Talk, Not Action and No Progress made since 1 year ago on news regarding the LRT extension to Bandar Kinrara". Maybe Election is coming ...........

I am quite disappointed with the finishings specially the 2 storey Semi D flooring. What kind of cheap wood material they are giving, might as well use tiles instead. Overall OK except the finishings e.g doors, flooring.
Hope Mah Sing will rectify them before everybody start complaining. Even the 2 Storey Terrace at Melodi Bandar Kinrara finishings are better !!!!!!!! |

QUOTE(UFO-ET @ Mar 16 2011, 07:37 PM) Nolah, Melodi is using laminated timer flooring (cheap), while Desiran is Solid Timber "Merbal" flooring (narrow strip), Sapphire & Emerald are Solid Timber "Merbal" flooring (wide strip), all Kinrara new SD and Bungalow are wide strip I hope you are right as the timber strips used for the semi-d in KR look like cheap parquet wood used for middle end houses. As for laminated wood, there are also different classes or standards. They can be quite hardy as they are used in shopping malls where there is a heavy traffic of people walking in and out.KR 2 & 3 - storey shd use Solid Timber "Merbal" flooring (wide strip), buyers shd protest  [attachmentid=2098941] Sample wide strip |

I have just received the Exclusive Invitation to Preview Kinrara Residence's club house and Show Village on 26 March 2011. This would give us the opportunity to meet up and highlight any short comings to the Developer.

QUOTE(UFO-ET @ Mar 17 2011, 07:46 PM) Sori pls count me out, I won't be around on 26/3/2011. In fact I was invited to view on 20th March 2011 (coming Sunday). 20th shd be for confirm purchaser, 26th for prospects Spoke to the Mah Sing People on Site at the Show Houses today. Highlight to them the quality problems. Found out that the invite for 20th March 2011 is for Link House buyers and 26th March 2011 for Semi-D Buyers. Maybe we can meet up this coming 20 March and 26 March 2011.Added on March 18, 2011, 6:37 pm QUOTE(cooolguy @ Mar 18 2011, 11:36 AM) The laminated glass railing on 1st floor of 2-storey Semi-D and balcony + 2nd floor of 3-storey Semi D look so unsafe. You can't even lean on the glass railing as there is no stainless steel railing like the one used in 3-storey superlink. Mr Cool Guy,Semi D: [attachmentid=2102137] VS 3-Storey Superlink:[attachmentid=2102139] I think Mah Sing heard your complaints. Saw the workers put on the stainless steel railings to the glass railing today. Hope that they will also install the shower screens. This post has been edited by Kinraraboy: Mar 18 2011, 06:37 PM |

PKB is launching new SemiDs and Bungalows at BK 8 this coming 22 March 2011. The cheapest unit is RM 2.88M for Build Up 4921 sf and Land Area 5499 sf. Now getting almost impossible to own the new SemiD and Bungalows in Bandar Kinrara. Prices have been shooting up since the 1st SemiD at BK 8. Wonder how would be the response.
Added on March 18, 2011, 8:28 pm QUOTE(intostyle @ Mar 18 2011, 05:07 PM) I noticed they use 2x2 Porcelain China Tiles (Brand : Stargress ). Very cheap about RM7/pcs base on project price. I used it before during my previous project at D' Boulevard. Pity for Semi D & 3 Story buyer Intostyle,Thats what I thought. Why does MS provide such cheap material ???? I am sure that the labor cost and other raw materials e.g sand & cement is more than the China tiles used. I guess MS is now trying to maximize their profits by providing cheap & shoddy finishings. For the 2 storey SemiD I spoke to the Developer today to provide a cement partition near the starcase facing the main door.They ask us to write in to request.

QUOTE(cooolguy @ Mar 20 2011, 05:36 PM) I was at the sales launch today, was told that the 2-storey Intermediate Semi D are going for RM1.548M while some of the corner ones are as high as RM1.8M. E.g. Unit 633 facing TNB with land area 4254sqft is priced at RM1.795M. Can anyone verify this? If so, congratulations to the early birds as you've made at least RM200k (or more) in paper gain! The remaining 2 storey Intermediate Units at RM 1.548 are the ones facing the T-junctions (if I am not wrong). Wonder who will buy unless the new units to be released will be sold at RM 1.8M or more, then maybe worth considering ????Added on March 20, 2011, 6:08 pm QUOTE(Kinraraboy @ Mar 20 2011, 06:05 PM) The remaining 2 storey Intermediate Units at RM 1.548 are the ones facing the T-junctions (if I am not wrong).

QUOTE(ayumi88 @ Mar 21 2011, 07:22 PM) Hi, For gated and guarded project, there is no auto gate at the house entrance. Open Concept just like YTL Lake Edge.I'm new here:) Y'day just went to see the 3 story showhouse, it was awsome!!! But as some buyer mention in this forum, certain things quality is not so good, not value for money. Such as main/front entrance door and back door just a normal quality,door frame, bathroom do not come with glass shower screen, and there are few bathroom sinks do not have the vanity like the master bathroom, just a sink. These are what i can seen so far....anything else??? And if the gate come with auto gate is the best!!! Is the tiles and the ceramic quality good?Anyone know the looks or the quality for the room door? Coz i can't see any door inside the show house, wonder how is the quality??? |
