since its a landscape driven township, i wonder how long IJM will take charge in maintaining the landscaping?

went to puncak alam to check out IJM houses. was told by the sales person that IJM has handover the landscaping maintenance job to the majlis perbandaran of kuala selangor. looks quite run down. maybe bcoz puncak alam is not their flagship project?

was told that there will be a road access from kota kemuning 3rd roundabout "twevle" oclock to canal city, approximately 5km

launching should be around aug or september. they gonna release a press conference on this renamed project "rimbayu" in the coming weeks.

Their double storey house namely "the chime" will be launching approximately 500+ units in few stages. price start from below myr 600k for 25 x 75. its not a G & G concept but they plan to fence it up upon completion subject to state council's approval. 1st phase soft launch will be in their temporary sales office in kota kemuning. They are building their sales gallery which located beside their signature community park in rimbayu.

According to the sales person from IJM, most likely they are not throwing DIBS into the package, maybe juz some rebate. IMHO, it will not attract alot of investors into the picture esp its a LH land + no DIBS. Kota kemuning is a better choice in term of a more matured township + FH. Rimbayu will definitely be facing alot of pressure on their 1st launching price. I dont think they should sell more than MYR 550k for the start.

Their residence area is separated quite far from the commercial areas. surrounding "The chime" will be a proposed school. Only one entrance entering the residential area. jog path will be surrounding the houses. Canal will only be build at the commercial area side, which will be much later. They need to be the residencial properties done first.

not sure abt tis but based on wat i saw from the miniature model, 3 access to d township.
- jln kebun
- kota kemuning 3rd roundabout
- skve (under con) access b4 saujana putra

yes quite sure. build up is abt 2100sqf for double storey. too bad its LH. but the house model is not complete so cannot see d detail layout

Added on May 22, 2012, 9:25 pmbtw, i was oso told that they r planning to build high end residential at the water front area, the mining site close to saujana putra. it will b in 5 yrs time after they complete the chime and commercial lots. so stay tuned!

add info: they are focusing on green building concept and to achieve GBI certification. that means they might throw in solar panels n rain water harvesting system.

i wonder if msia has market potential for green concept. any ideas n thoughts to share? any successful township/housing that is GBI certified and achieved great appreciation? will it be the next big thing? food for thought

sry. buta ady. it shud b 22 x 75, not 25 x 75. typo typo million apologies

1st phase consist of 2 and 2.5 storey according to SA. after finish the chime then they might consider semi d and 3 storey.

well im juz sharing based on what i know. they actually have a sales office in kota kemuning but they are still renovating. u can actually call them up or knock on their glass door and they will let u in. that's wat i did and i paid couple times of visits and try to make frens wif the SA n gorek more infos. hahaha

actually im following closely on tis project bcoz i intend to get a landed property around kota kemuning (parents like that place and we have been staying in shah alam for more than 20 yrs). i even drove to the site using those estate road from jln kebun to the under construction citylink warehouse beside elite highway. ahaha. thought can catch a glimpse on their show unit (underconstruction) but no luck with that.

tdy's paper? hw come i didnt see it

holy cow i 've missed the article. anyone kind enuf to repost here or snap a photo? plzzzzz

anticipating. can consider if its below myr600k. ideal price shud be ard myr 550k. they shud throw in some rebates as they only offer dibs to their highrise projects in penang

u went to their kota kemuning sales office? is the house model ready for view? fascade nice? any info when r they launching?
