went to their showroom last week.
the ideas are quite impressive, i dunno about the implementation though.
the designs of the units are quite similar to iconcity in pj, but this is freehold not leasehold.

planning on the duplex

buying the biggest duplex of coz for own stay

choosing the 3+1 duplex, however might be difficult to pass loan on my own, might need to use my current house as collateral. 3+1 simplex i think can pass but single floor in today's condo feels very cramped.

the density is one thing i have considered, however i think will be contra flow since people will be coming into kl to work, getting out shouldn't be such a jam. additionally i work overseas, my gf is an auditor so her schedule is flexible and my mom is retired.

the facilities and gardens would be a good place for my mom to fill her time.

17% discount just pay rm3000 booking everything else by loan.

you're an agent there?

for all that is available.
but currently developer units for smaller ones are being sold out quick.

yes, it is very good, you focus on this development only?

i forgot i left the calculations at home.
the biggest duplex bar the penthouse is 1.9m
calculated to be around 8k monthly

awaiting family decision then bank decision

any issue for malaysians working abroad being paid salary into an overseas bank account to buy property in malaysia?

interested because of the location, design, and freehold.
discussing with family members, not everyone likes the idea of kl

my agent told me now only 1 car park but big discounts

much be rich to afford 3rd house with the units left all > 1.5m

what other projects u handling?

can explain more?

generally i thought astoria would be the immediate competitor for mcity, almost similar concept and also new.

last round i was at mcity office the only units they are really pushing for are the larger units

reliable source?

haih! no eye see.....things seem to be getting so dim

and i thought only the bigger units left (what the sales girl told me)

went to view setia sky residence last weekend, quite impressed.

usually gotta listen to alot of hot air from the sales person before you get to the discount part

overall quite impressive.
it is far enough yet close enough to get a good KLCC view, unlike the many "KLCC view" bullshit agents say

my only qualm is that they didn't have any duplex/penthouse units.

from setia sky viewpoint i dun think klcc is small

Personally for me double story houses are a good commodity for investment because no matter what to keep within the (new normal) price of RM 1 million (RM1M) the locations are getting further and further away from good locations yet people still buy it. However, generally people are not so interested in renting landed except for areas near colleges for students or kintergarden -- so it is mostly a one off deal of buying it cheap then hold to sell it at a higher price, i was lucky during the early years I managed to rent one corner unit as a kintergarden for a few years while the place matured before selling but i found out that renting landed is quite difficult to evict bad tenants as i can't just block their access card when i make a complaint to the management.

if you're like me and prefer
1. location
2. convenient (shopping mall below/nearby)
3. safety/security
4. basement parking (won't get wet even under heavy rain)

and not into
1. gardening
2. lazy to upkeep house (landed u gotta do your own pest control and maintenance)
3. living in semi ulu place

then living in a condo in a good location in kl/pj won't be an issue

nobody wants to admit it but the good times are over.
especially for agents and investors.
developers have yet to feel the pinch.
