Hi Sifus

Pls provide an insight as to whether Subang Olives Residence is a condo worth investing. Understand that Vacant Possession took place in year 2010 but seems nobody has moved in there yet. Why is that so? Also cannot see any owner letting out the condo units in IProperty. Only sale units available. Is there anything wrong with this condo?

Owners do not have to pay monthly maintenance fee but they have to pay for the car park, of which the revenue collected will be used for maintenance of the property. Anyone knows what is the charge per car park lot?

Would appreciate your feedback.

Thank you.

What are the negative effects of a housing project having changed many developers? I heard the condo now is badly maintained. I supposed no one move in yet, so there is no car park fee collection which means no money for maintenance of the property. Think the developer made a mistake by using car park fee as revenue for maintenance. They hv to incur the maintenance cost at least for one year after vacant possession.

The problem is the pricing..Alot unit i believe is not sold yet. Because change hands 2 x, the cost also rise i think. Plus it is far off from amenities thus how to sell for same price like casa tiara, subang avenue, saujana residency etc.. Just dont make sense. Same like Amaya saujana.
I believe people would compromise on size and spend less ( meaning total price not price psft ) at better location than pay higher price for bigger units at further location.

Phase 1 = Residents
Phase 2 = Hotels

Car Park Fee (NO maintenance fee)
2 Car Park = RM 380/mth

The location is a bit far from amenities like subang parade, carrefour and etc. also the future lrt is not within walking distance which buyers have better choice than this one. i feel the price is a bit steep, for 1400 sqft they selling at 700k, probably 550k will be more justificable.

Yes, agreed with you. There are all selling 480 ~ 500psf.

The question here is if the price drop to 550k....would you to buy? brows.gif

The concept of this development is "Apartment within Apartment", whereby you can rent the unit to 2 different tenant because of have 2 separate entrance.

If not mistaken, 1 is in studio unit around 300++ ~ 400++sf, another 1 for big family around 1100++ ~ 1300++.

If for own stay, can buy Laffite apartments for 1/3rd the price or a landed property in Subang jaya which holds more value. Olive is not happening enough to sell at that price. Thats for me k. Not a fact.

Hi thank you for all yr views and info. The car park fee at RM380 is very expensive. Many condos provide 2 car parks free with maintenance fee of 18 sen to 25 sen per sf. And families nowadays hv 2 cars. So if owner of a 1469sf Subang Olives needs 2 car parks, he has to pay RM760! That is 52 sen per sf if we convert and link it to the size of his condo unit. No wonder the property is not in good demand.

I think you are mistaken. RM380 is for 2 carpark and still I think the maintenance is not that bad considering huge b/u of 1471 and above which comes about 0.25/sqft. I understand that there's still some developer units left, wonder if the price is still park at the old price or already revised?

Already revised to current market price...no more old price... sad.gif

The Aramah raya already bought over the developer, so they have strong holding power, so they will not sell below market value.

If you want the lower price, maybe u can wait 4 auction unit.....(maybe have)
