For those whose intentions are for rental income - Never ever consider EVE units facing NKVE..... it is simply too noisy. no one will rent from you unless probably you intend to get a rental of RM 500 .......... duh !!!! I suggest you keep your money in Aussie Dollar FDs......... And BTW my 6 senses tell me that actually most of the units facing the NKVE are actually unsold. The developer has deliberately place sticker dots on the NKVE units to give false impression to stimulate ignorant buyers to those units.
For the 2 room 1065 units facing crimson, i again suggest you leave your bullets in your bank. No point paying 560k for a unit without view...... Dear Corgi ... regardless of the distance between crimson and eve, trust me, just keep your money in FDs first...... wait for new launches elsewhere
but just to quench your curiosity, the distance between the two blocks should be leave than 30metres.
Eventhough the noise is lower comparative to those units facing the NKVE directly, however, the price + the blocked view just do not add up. Frankly only those units facing the swimming pool is worth investing. But only those block facing the pool directly (Units 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28). Those units nearer to the LRT station and the tunnel are also a no no becos of noise pollution from cars and trains.
Frankly guys, price of property will continue to go up due to inflation. Quite unlikely it will crash. Furthermore after the Japan earthquake, Japan will be importing more building materials to rebuild their cities. Therefore construction raw material cost wil escalate further..... so be prepare to pay more in the future.....
Developers will find every excuse to increase the selling price further and this will directly impact the secondary market, which will follow suit ...... so to minimize risk ....... purchase areas with good access, good amenities, good view and in PJ and/or Damansara. You will never go wrong..........
so your advise is to buy or not to buy leh?
as a former resident of crimson, personally i quite enjoyed the area at that time.
personally, i think eve should be quite an okay place to stay. for rental wise, it might be quite difficult. within the same category, people renting can opt for amaya, oasis, serai saujana
but then again, freehold prop in pj is indeed very hard to come by.
alternatively, there's a resort concept apartments by sime in ara damansara. for rm670k, i think some might be considering it since it's bigger built up and completed!
for those eyeing the studio facing nkve, u must be prepared to close your windows at all time and open your AC. it is indeed very noisy. the units facing crimson shouldn't be too bad as 30m distance is quite far apart and i reckon your side sight should be reasonable enough.
again that's just my 2 rupiahs!
