bank will not give you 90% or even 80% loan for BA. some BA condos are really nice and look solid la but don't think you can get a bank loan for that.

Dont take the Kyoto Tower Block..... Try get the 1200 sf 5storey Kyoto Gdns low rise which is 100 metre away...
this will be safer,...... being lowrise?

hi Smart Money, i came across this thread when searching for Kyoto Condo low rise apartment cuz a friend is selling hers. Searched the internet for the picture and market price of the low rise Kyoto Condo but I got nothing. Is it a better place to stay compared to the high rise? and do you happen to know the market price of the low rise Kyoto Condo? Thank you in advance

Kyoto Garden with all the surroundings is like resort living...

Wow..that is cheap. But that area is a "red" area. Risky

Yup but if really another case of highland towers, kiss the 270k goodbye. Cry also no tears

Three years later, 73 purchasers and owners of Block 2 and 3 filed a suit against 10 defendants.

AmFinance Bhd (formerly Arab-Malaysian Finance Bhd) and nine others – Highland Properties Sdn Bhd, draughtsman Wong Tin Sang, engineer Wong Yuen Kean, Tropic Developments Sdn Bhd, Metrolux Sdn Bhd, MBf Property Services Sdn Bhd, the Selangor government, Selangor Director of Lands and Mines and the Ampang Jaya Municipal Council – were named as defendants.

In August 2004, it was reported that AmFinance agreed to pay RM52mil to 139 residents and owners of Highland Towers in exchange for the plaintiffs to “release and assign to AmFinance all rights of action in the suits against Highland Properties Sdn Bhd and the developer of Highland Towers”.

They also signed to release or assign their rights and title to their individual apartment units in Highland Towers, their rights to the common property, unencumbered and free from claims of end financiers.

The RM52mil was said to be a full and final settlement for all claims, inclusive of costs, arising and or resulting from the three suits against AmFinance.

One of the 139 residents, who declined to be named, said each unit owner received more or less RM200,000 after deducting legal costs.

“I believe the actual amount of compensation is based on the size of the unit. The penthouse owners with bigger size units would have received more,” he said.

Asked if the settlement and the cessation in pending suits brought any form of closure, he said: “Not really. At the end of the day, the Federal Court found that the Ampang Jaya Municipal Council was not liable.”

He was referring to a decision made by the apex court on Feb 17, 2006, that ruled local councils cannot be held liable for losses suffered by anyone should a building collapse.

The municipal council had appealed at the apex court to set aside a Court of Appeal ruling that held it liable for the pre-collapse period.

“To me, the judgment is wrong. If the authority is held liable, it will make sure none of this will happen again. But then (according to the court) they are not.

“We move on, but we don’t forget,” he added.
