Can always walk next door to Summit as they are well known for it

Summit is the 'bad boy' of all shopping complexes in Subang Jaya...long live Summit!! The only time I visit that place is for their DVDs and horror movies in the theatre...theater themselves are creepy so adds to the fun!

which future projects (with integrated mall) within 1km radius could most probably selling higher psf price than Da Men?

This perhaps? http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1719428/+60

Of course it won't have a broad effect across the whole property market. But it will absolutely have a bad impact on those who got promised, and purchasing at such price.

I believe no developer can ever point a gun on anyone's head to get them purchase the on sale property. It's the buyer who must have a clear mind and strategy plan before diving into any sort of long term investment regardless for own stay or rental play. We can only predict the future with present information. But I guess during these buying frenzy period, many are not able to differentiate between reasonable and overpriced value properties

Damen attract "booking" bcos there is an escape clause, booking can be refunded in full before letter issued to inform the need to sign spa. As damen yet to obtain advertising permit due to building yet to be approve, those who booked will be on "look see" "look see" mode. Between now and demand to sign spa, estimated to have minimum of 3 months window, before end of Oct, 2011, those who booked will monitor if market sign positive or negative after launch. If signs are good, many will take calculated risks by signing spa. On the other hand, if market against, Damen, then many will pull out. I am curious and dying to find out what are the bankers comments of recent pricing? Will they provide 90% loan to current apt pricing of rm700 psf? If no bankers agreed to enpanel the project, particularly at the mentioned price, then all of us here are dreamers. No EF line, how to speculate, buy as own stay, flip? Both Equine and would be purchasers suffer. As such, asked bankers their two cents thought first.

What...no panel bankers yet?
This is another level already!!

Confirmed EF fr MBB, Ambank, UOB, CIMB, OCBC, more to join in later.

Are you sure or not? Those banks mentioned empanel for shops and not for apartments!

UOB is offering gd rate for SoHo. My fren oledi handover docs cos he is 1 of de insiders.

Damen is not likely to be Pavillion2. It will be Fahrenheit88 part2..... Fahrenheit88 is 300k sf, Damen is 400k sf while Pavillion is appox 1 mil sf.

Pavillion USF is it long frontage to the main road (the long row of 15 to 25 high end boutiques fronting jln. BB) thus attracting flagship stores to be located there.

Damen's frontage facing Jln. Kewajipan is only 2 to 4 shops wide similar to Fahrenheit88 hence only small stores/ mini-branch will be located there.

Pavillion has high end boutiques which are unlikely to open shop in Sub-Urban malls - Chanel, Prada, Versace, IWC ect.

Damen will probably be competing to bring middle class boutiques such as Coach, Guess, Mont Blanc ect. Boutiques that already have stores in Sunway Pyramid and Empire. Will Damen suffer the faith of SS2 Mall?

Went there on Sat to transfer my booking (my name tak boleh pakai oredi ) but decided to cancel it altogether since only 40% sold.

I'm sure those 'insiders' who bought RM350k units will be happy to sell at RM400k to RM450k in 3 yrs time

Don't-la compare with real 'malls' like Mid-Valley, Sungei Wang or even Sunway Pyramid

rakyat bro, you're having the same thought as i am .

I just went summit last night, and i noticed few thing. There are few ID on the entrance of the LG wall, near the ATM machine, got mirror and lightning, looks good! Toilet, it is much more presentable now! Air con is much more cooler even alot of ppls yesterday night due to the sales at the middle of Ground floor.
But sad is that, only LG,G and 1st floor is crowded. But the corner corner shop, all either empty or close, and hardly ppl walk there also.
More stalls in the middle instead of 3-4 years back, which is totally empty, or only with few stalls!

I believed summit nowadays is much more better compared to last time. I hope they will consider refurbish the GSC, and if the cinema is GOOD, i won't be going to pyramid, TGV and watch movie anymore .

but in retail..if u start weak...and later play catchup very payah one.
Your brand tarnish dee, very hard to change the mindset of shoppers. First impression last forever, just normal beings.

Dan men=big gate in mandarin...this name sounds funny to me..since like this developer dun hv any creative idea to come out a better name......why wan name it as da man??..sounds funny..

it was meant to be funny. that's why the name.
developer nowadays is resorting to using unique names for their development to attract buyers..

Maybe they are targeting chinaman/hongkee to invest there.

Da Men means big door, or in other word means a gateway for the investment. So your money journey start from Da Men, where the Da Chai will come to you

Actually with their launch pricing, the real meaning should be "Die Man" for their investors. 400000 sft is nothing la. Probably like slightly bigger than old giant only.

maybe one of the reason they put this name because of Revenue concept...

perhaps like Taipei - 西門町 ...

p/s: i talkcock only...
