Mini shoplots, hmm... as long got shop still OK.
Else, become drug addict port lagi susah!
Worst, open a car svc ctr thr... isyk2... bcome lagi eyesore!

I wud agree, bbr is pretty slow...
But look at subang jaya and then usj 20yrs ago...
Its somethg like bbr now, no?
Subang parade b4 carrefour up tat period...
When usj1 whr giant/mydin was now...
It was a large swamp... long b4 taipan was intro...
Seriously ulu beb... now, triple deck flyover in a township...

Anyway, i wud say bbr opp of setia may have potential for more vast improvement..
Lived in setia for the past 4-5yrs... its nice & save, nice environment...
But too costly 2 upgrade... gonna miss setia and pray 4 the best in Bbr...
Hope to form committee later 2 continue/make better current security,
thankfully, all new development has them...
not as efficient as g&g but gud enuf as 1st line of deterrent...

This post has been edited by edlim: Nov 15 2012, 10:49 PM

Yes bro, SA to BBR... 20x65 to 20x70 better dun upgrade rite...
22x75 asking 580k, newer phase, i like nectandra, spacious.
In 2010, bank value cant really catch up, might not able to get 90%
Smore, s&p + bank lawyer, MOT, downpaymnt... phew alot $ upfrt wo!
24x75 g&g asking 630k but layout, hmm looks small...
Went BBR, grab 1 unit... nvr look back d

Of coz bro, much delighted...
But i thk aft 1+yrs baru will start active when SD no more free Security
Now njoy the free stuff + complaint kao2 when got issues...
But surely a gud idea to hv strong community..
Ez to push SD wif voices instead of 1 man show nia...
Later might suggest 3ppl @ nite. Plan was 2 ppl, i motor patrol...
24hrs Car patrol for all phase, paloma+ellis+fuego+avani,
est. agak2 will masuk each taman within 1hr each round...


Damn true, Pro&Cons depends how u "make do" wif it,
even Aman perdana... ok its near factory
But now its better, Less dust/arang residue...
Security seems ok wor aft semi-guarded with card access smore@$40/mth

Mont kiara... Err, my bos stays thr... and yeah he did complaint bout the mess and traffic too ha2

Exactly, better security, traffic lights, fence...
All fuego owner Have Been Asked To Do So...
Pls put in ur feedback form... tenkiu very much...

Nope, tis is Setia, the hse i was refering was an Endlot Afzelia (from 650k asking).
Last time, i was told by SD's SA, they already allocate budget for Sound barrier as well as fencing provided all residence agree.
Again, SD might budge and give in provided we have a strong communittee demanding this...
Unless SD can guarantee no crime zone area which is totally impossible...

GOt good and bad... strata title, the land is private...
there was once in Setia, whr there was a mixed up between earlier SP's mgmt and committee take over...
the rubbish truck and maintenance didn't go and do their job because thr was no work order given on private land..
imagine i thk few days to weeks, sampah nobody take and grass was over-growing...
That's why their montly mainetnance is kinda high... RM1xx if not mistaken...
very much similar like Condo whr u have sinking funds too for various public rectification...

Which house you bot?

I was wondering, isit DPC or DMC?
If i recalled correctly, this is known as Deed of Mutual Consent (DMC)
whereby all residence must sign and agreed to the terms - basically mthly maintenance and shared responsibility on this private land...


Actually, not really tat costly and depends on the no of hse... like Aman Perdana, each house was requested RM500.
This is for fencing and barrier/card system.
And because this isn't strata title, local council is still asked to maintain this area frm our cukai pintu/tanah thgy.
Just that, permission muz be granted for TOL (temporary occupancy license for the Guard Booth structure).
I asked the guards, they claim there will be a permanent booth structure built on the temporary ones @ Fuego...
i hope it materialize... he said, aft 2yrs, will discuss again and then fence up and provide prox card...
the guard oso claim, the older phase, somewhere inside BBR already done it... janji residence agree to pay, abt 80%

and for the sake of budget, i can supply and ask some contractor to do the work for me at cost price...
fencing i not sure, will need to check wif some contractor attached to developers...
but for barrier and cards, it should not be more than 10k for a 2 way system (in / out).
and each cards, well... its about the price of a pack of wan ton mee...
E.g. AP monthly is abt RM40 and i think they increase RM10 to RM50 which include guard tour...
this i can oso proposed and install @ cost to make sure the guards do their job patrolling all corner @ certain given duration...
can even have mthly reports on the guards patrol via tis system.... mthly fee is oni to cover guards salary...
for oth repairs and maintenance... as is basis.... committee will oversee the maintenance of such items/repairs/replacement...
very much same as Kemuning Utama residence....
as long we get 100% support from residence community, surely somethg can be worked out...

Added on November 27, 2012, 1:43 pmas for hse quality...
geez, i give up... the windows especially master bedroom has the tendency to leak... due to the aluminium join which have some gap...
they use silicone to close it...
another place, ROOF... u will notice the join between the roof and the hse may crack and leak.... 2nd time patch, still leak! sigh!

i complaint some tiles got scratches... fine, its being polished..
nx day i see, the polish was worst... it eats the tiles...
and leave brown patches... damn ugly man.... finally they said will replace..
ok aft replace, the tiles was off color... but seems like MORE scratches...
coz when we came again wif my contractor... for quote....
the tiles was in this condition...

my contractor said tiles got sharp edges, sapu sure will scratch...
sure enuf... its worst... i give up...

IF SIME DARBY PPL READING THIS...
PLS LAR... DUN MAKE IT AS BAD AS ARA HILLS 2ND PHASE!!!!
Reputation is at stake ok!!!!

Hahaha... same here... the traffic lights kinda fast...
and no choice, aft ofis hr, automatically it's being converted into double lanes to turn in...
fortunately, when tunring in is also another double lane, else, kena squeeze in, surely bottle neck + delay/jam
hopefully they widen the road... frm Setia's 3 (+1 @ setia entrance) road into 2 roads...
Tat section widen to 3/4 laner and then leave the right 2 lanes to turn in BBR wud be great

Btw neobita,
An alternative to King's Hill City, y not King's Height Residence hahaha....
Juz playing ard wif names, since we cant really change it either...

no wonder i see tis banner all along BBR area when driving since last weekend... kinda figured its gonna be next to nobat...

630k ya... kinda premium... but my hunch said its gonna be another sold out bargain again...

anyway, i thk some 20x65 full buildup @ setia is abt 1900sf
e.g. Cestrum (1908sf) ,Sasaella + Bambusa (~1944sf), juz checked, its <600k.
Aci/In-dosasa (~1879sf) and Tuscany (1867sf) demand >600k, not bad!

20x70 new phases are >700k (>2000sf),
only older phase are 5-6xxk depending builtup (<2000sf) and location.

but of coz, newer facade more appealing to younger gen
as well as warranty and other factors...

Garcinia is a good buy, provided its Garcinia 1 coz launching price oso @ 498k, G2 @ 528k

Sheda is older phase, 2082sf, launching price was oni 284k (yrs ago)...
Charisma slightly newer (2130sf), personally i did saw this model 2yrs ago.
That time, it was asking 550-580k. Dev. price was oni 325k.
Unfortunately bank value wasnt there yet...

But for now, that's about the price going...
Garcinia is a good buy... if that price still good to go!

Wow, shld have kept my hse abit longer...
When i put my hse for sale...
Took quite sometime as buyers are worried for Imp 2 and 4...
Till 1 time was kinda feedup ppl keep saying the same prob...
Ok its oni frt and back brickwall soil sinki, so crack @ join...
Inside is super perfect...
For it to reach 530k +/- is quite amazing...

Anyway, yeah Imp2 20x65 is small, oni 1500sf buildup nia...
Imp 3 newer phase whr backyard fully ext and porch nuf for 1 big sedan
Tis buildup is big, 1900sf if not mistaken, blh tahan spacious...

20x70 Sheda/Charisma, tis is superb...
In 2010, asking 570-590k... 24x70 G+G Afzelia end lot 625k.
22x75 Nectandra and isit Pradosia cant recall, asking abt same as Afzelia...
Tis 22x75 is much spacious than 24x70 hehehe... Suka but but...
Bank value tak sampai... Sub sale No pao S&P, alot up frt pymt, Susah man...

End up, Bukit Raja now But i miss Setia's environment...
Oh well, as long happy wif space and got roof ok liao haha...
Those that plan 2 let go Setia hse, if got holding power, KEEP man... its a nice place...

Sold it somewhr Q3 of last year. yes bro, sub-sale apart from the 10% downpayment,
there's additional 2-5% or so for S&P, MOT, Loan Agreement, etc. etc.

i have to agree, Imp. 8 20x70 is great, spacious...
Imp 4 20x70 kinda cramp, layout err makes it small + big backyard...
Imp 2 and 3 not mistaken, 18x65 and 20x65 nia.
Imp 5 Semi-D quartet oso not bad for small family, love the xtra land.
How much it can go (or whats it worth)... for the time being, no scale to judge how high it may hit...
as long there's demand, its hard to control owners price...
moreover, when it involve $kaching$, the greedier one will be (we oso seller mah, its norm hahaha)....

True, Setia is a nice place... but sometimes depend on luck...
My prev. setia neigh. (one side) sigh! Susah man... sikit2 complaint (coz i got doggy)...
fortunately they shifted and the new owner much better
but was looking for somethg more spacious, actually hinted by wife to upgrade...
surprised her wif a booking slip for Fuego which at tat time, was pretty exp for a Klang hse

*Edited*
Alisma is Setia Imp. 3 isit?
But if you got the budget, u wun regret in Setia (for own stay)

This post has been edited by edlim: Oct 18 2013, 12:13 PM

Dun worry bro, although no more wrty, if any of the house foundation sink,
Rest assured setia will rectify for u... Juz talk 2 them and they wil arrange inspection.
Especially the porch... But they will not cover backyard extension or land area in porch...
If those crack, they will blame ur contractor piling or foot print not good...
I read tis somewhr in the oth forum too... Their name is at stake wor

Fuego rite? I dun thk its 28.
That 1 is chinese family bro... also ex-setia alam upgrade
Err... after awhile, u will get used to it... Close the door lor hehehe...
And SD will erect a sound barrier once all is done and get 70% agreement.
Partly also as security issues as there are some fences along the highway already got hole (cut)!
But then again, with a no. of hanging banner,
hope it will materialized soon as they already allocated budget (tunggu masa je)...
Good luck on ur hunt

Huh no lar bro, i lived there...

Err, i dunno wor... If own stay, ok kua...
If invest, dun thk so or thin margin, my 2 cents opinion nia...
Look at new launch here, that asking price is abt dev RM/sf offer
Dun thk setia can get tis per sf price for subsale mrkt.
Try iprop, urgent sale 792k, dun thk its facing hiway... Nego kao2..

y not, u can try Rodat 16 then... there are few facing north with banners (only 2 roads are Phase 1).
get a responsible agent, ask tat fella try to nego, willing buyer willing seller...
but east, err abit problem for ur asking price... those are Phase 2, their prices up ~30k frm phase 1.
for 770k budget, u may have several options for other DSL, even in Setia...
During minor reno end of last yr, the same contractor did my hse, bot a hse @ Paloma few mths early...
its staff reserved unit - not bad, RM680k nice no, facing playground + tenanted too... lucky for him!
