Hi All,

Am a newbie here.

Wish to seek opinion on Crestin Park, Kajang. Rite now, they have a 1.5 storey town villa and the 5 storey apartment in progress.

Am went to the show unit of town villa. To be honest, the design is great. But, the price of 390k seems a little pricey...

But, I don't know the price does justify with its location or not. Appreciate your valuable input.

what is size bro?

It is 1346sf

cemetery was just behind onli weei ~ better get kajang 2 or nadayu ~~

That's my concern initially...but the available block which I'm interested in is a little distance from it and the developer said definately high perimeter fencing to 'cover' it.

I went to nadayu, it is very deep in though! I actually quite like development at Kajang 2 but the high tension station over there just paused me from thinking further...

Nadayu too deep, agreed.
Kajang 2 isnt great too as you said.
TTDI Grove is near town, but also near a big mosque (if you are sensitive to morning azans) and prison...... and affected by saujana impian's morning bad jam.

Crestin. It's the nearest plot of land I see that is so near the town centre. No more land that's so near. Oh, firstly let me say that I am not a buyer in Crestin as I can't afford at this moment. Nor do I have any hidden reason to get you to buy Crestin.

Design and its real G&G concept is the nicest, so near to Kajang town. Cemetery, if you are buying for own stay and not worried about renting out then you can choose to ignore. If after 5-10yrs you wish to sell then by then MRT is up already so that will offset any value drop caused by cemetery. I saw 5 schools around it too, and none will cause a traffic jam near Crestin. You can get your kids to walk to school in the future.

But check out the developer and research how many are sold. If more than 60% sold then I believe they start to make $$ so less worry about it being abandoned halfway.

If you are buying to invest for rental, then I suggest you skip this one. On the price, with the discounts and all you should be able to get a town villa for less than 350k, no?

very good advice, Sarled.
I can see that you are a taiko in property investment too.

TS, what is the reason you wanted to buy right inside Kajang town? you are from this area? close to amenities and schools that you will be using?

Not taiko lah, just sharing. But TQ, TQ.
On more thing. Next to Crestin is this Taman Saga Emas Phase 3, currently in very good progress of construction. Their townhouses there only 160k or so (indicative price, to launch soon I think), but only 900+ sqft. But looks somewhat low/medium cost. If you are thinking for investing, then this one will be safer as you probably can rent out for RM700 by next year, making >5% rental income/yr, which is okay lah. Just keep in mind lah.

Thanks for your advice. It's very informative. I'll explore the project at Taman Saga Emas. It seems like the price is quite attactive. By the way, is there any website or link for this Taman Saga Emas's project?

No website. It's a local and small developer. If you lived locally you will have noticed banners advertising the project. But their projects always sold out coz of good pricing. Just go over there again and you will see the contact nos. But the buildings are no where as nice as Crestin Park lah. Does anyone know how is the Crestin Park project going?

i saw the show unit, and im really like what i saw...but to be frankly....the price is just too high,

better buy a terrace house for that price

If the price can be somewhere lower, I will also go for it coz it really looks nice to me.

If only they built terrace houses so near to town like in Crestin, yah? No more land so close to Kajang centre liao.

bayu sekamat (limited unit) is near to kajang centre, TTDI Grove also the same (sell quiet well too) now launching phase 4.

Sorry, Bayu Sekamat is way too far from Kajang centre for me. It's about 6km to the heart of town (I measured). TTDI Grove, I believe is near to town (though not as near as Crestin), but pricing there is 450k+ I think.

yup true, well TTdi grove price for phase 3 is around 450k, but i guess it justified the house price plus the landscape.It will be much better lanscape than alam impian shah alam. They appointing special architect for the landscape. Anyway this is a big development, they will be apartment also, so you can watch for that.

just put 1% deposit on town villa.. hope everything goes smooth.. anyone else already paid their deposit?

Congrats on your booking. What's the update on this project now?

just went there last 2 weeks.. they mention that the project shall start early Sept.. haven't got time to went there to see the prgress...

be interesting to see how these townhouses will compare in pricing with the ones being built next door.

Added on October 29, 2011, 7:55 amSaw piling works have just started for Crestin . Not sure when the project can complete. The Saga Emas townhouses and shops next door almost completed already. Even painted.

This post has been edited by sarled: Oct 29 2011, 07:55 AM

Just put booking fee for the terrace apartment. Anyone booked the apartment?

Crestin Park still only piling done. Next door Saga Emas Phase 3 launched townhouses RM199k.

are you still buying the townvilla?? just wondering.. coz I just put in deposit for it too last week.

Added on April 21, 2012, 5:47 pm[Crestin Park - Town Villa]

Last week, I just booked one of the remaining 4 townhouses left (as told by the property agent- unless its just sales talk! lol). location seems pretty good. yeah, downside is the cemetery. But the developer has changed the master plan instead of building 5 blocks of town houses, now there is only 2! They are building another apartment block (84 units) which eventually will block the view of the cemetary for the townhouse buyers... but another downside is that it is no longer a low density gated community. There will be 24 units townhouses + two blocks of (47+84) units apartments... so you do the math... Hrmmm.. im imagining parking for residents + visitors wouldnt be easy. coz for sure ppl will have more cars than their unit is allowed and they will be cars parked alongside of roads outside... like typical high densed residential areas. so thats that..

Now, my loan officer from Al-Rajhi informed me that currently the developer has been on hold for loans coz they are many buyers who cancelled their purchase because they did not see any progress in construction. I visited the site last week, piling for townhouses is there and there are workers doing construction on the 47units apartment, but just foundation level.. not much to see... SO now I am kind of skeptical on this purchase. what is really going on??? anyone knows, I would really appreciate some input. Worried that developer got problem then abandon project.. then we all buyers screwed for LIFE!

the location is good
very near to kajang hospital
however i decided not to buy this townhouse because the developer change their plan
it will be high dense area with the amount of apartment they want to build

I'm also just booked the apartment (3rd floor). Well, I can sensed that this area is good for investment. Wait until at least 5 years when the MRT completed. And got some schools some more.

<<Al-Rajhi informed me that currently the developer has been on hold for loans>>.... still can get loan ?

Waahhh...is it true ahh? I've just sent my documents to Al-Rajhi and AmBank for loan approval. Anyone can give me an updates?

Dude, no one can help on this. Just wait for your loan to be approved. Overall I think it will be a good buy in the future. Some ground work is already in progress.

any pic update on the work progress?

is it still available?

Just contact this guy for availability.....010-2955283 (Ray Yap)

Last year I wanted to buy a unit here. Infact I booked. But then later I did my due diligence on this developer and paid RM15 online to get their profile with SSM. Their profile (as attached) gave me no confidence, so I cancelled on the day I was supposed to sign the SPA.

Not wanting to pour cold water on anyone, but I left the project, on part based on this profile search. You should make your own conclusions and opinions, not asking you to follow what I did. I still think it's not a bad location, cemetery or not. Eventually, since land has all but been exhausted at that area, the demand for property here will be good.

went to MAPEX today, saw KIM realty selling this townhouse, left 2 units due to last minutes owner drop out.
Any updates on these development?

Overall reasonable rate + good location

Quite spacious, 1.4k built up area

I lived at kajang. Just want to share some information. Actually MRT station in Kajang are at Pantai Hospital(near), Jalan Reko (Kim staton) and Satay Kajang. Everything will have to drive. There are no public transport even mini bus get into this housing area because it is low density. So it's either you walk or drive. Most of the place in Kajang are still freehold. I heard from old people that long time ago the location now cresting park is located are actually a proposed stadium or something like that.

hi I'm a newbie here. I booked one unit at iproperty expo yesterday. currently developer is selling 84units apartment at crestin park and it cost around 280k after rebate. since it was at reasonable price, I booked it without any pre survey. this developement compromise 7level of apartment and 2 level of car park. the unit that I booked is at 7th flr facing town house, 868sqft, not facing garden and cemetery.

is it worth to buy for investment purpose? is this developer can be trusted? y they are selling at cheaper price compare to others development? Since I looked the previous post, I'm kinda worry at the moment. pls leave some suggestion.thanks

the attachment below is showing the site is just beside the cemetery area.


Attached thumbnail(s)

I already book one at iproperty since this one is cheaper and within my budjet.

This developer can be trusted?

yes..is true..quite worry..any other comment on this?

I think with this pricing..facilities..leasehold..size.

Better u spend another 30k to buy that pear avenue subsalales?...or even better that ammera or even better the mewah 9... OR that next to billion lease hold?

I buy the apartment too. Hopefully is a good buy as the location is good. Maybe I will be site visit to check the location and see the progress.

You bought the phase 2 apartment?

actually many low medium cost already done something like this

they add car park, add security, upgarde with tiles, some add swimming, surau, hall etc.

check the setia alam, bukit tinggi, kepong, sungai buluh and cheras since year 2010.

Yup. Actually I plan to buy the townhouse but it sold out edi. So they purpose me to buy the apartment. So I book one

I saw the townhouse completed already, but the phase 1 apartment still on going.

Do you already visit the site?

Surrounded by mature development, schools, shops n etc
Not sure whether d jam is within tolerance?

location is good.

just price too high for the apartment

Not yet. Wait for this weekend

Any available unit for apartment? How much the price?

Is this Freehold or Leasehold?

phase 1 apartment is slowwwww....

I already visited that place.since it public holiday... I can't really go inside.to tell the thruth... I really disspointed. the aprtment look like very low class apartment....can't see any landscape n fence has been build yet. I think the progress is too slow since its last year project. The banner also look like ruined out or smthing. The cemetery really near. Its an old chines cemetery and some grave almost touch the boundary and the grave also is hill site.

Smtimes i do regret buying this property but i just pray for the best

I dont understand why you are feeling disappointed. The apartment does not look "very low class" as you claimed. It's a 5-storey apartment block with lif, NOT a high end luxury condo. Pls get your expectation right. IMHO, it's decent and the best part is the low density of only 50 units.

The landscape & fence is NOT built yet cos the construction has not completed. Fencing & landscape usually comes last. And why are you complaining about the banner ??

And regarding the nearby cemetery, you should know about the cemetery before you commit to purchase it. If you are not aware of the cemetery prior to signing the SNP, then you did not do your homework properly and have only yourself to blame.

You are complaining now, but when MRT is ready, you'll reap the fruit of your purchase then. Pls be more far-sighted when purchasing/investing in property.

I agree the construction progress is slow, but developer has 36 months prior to VP.

The main concern for buyers like us is this kind of small unknown developer going burst and the whole project abandoned.
If the project is completed and VP, the next concern is the built quality.

why u so defensive about my opinion. I DON'T expect the apartment to look like high end condo but the quality of the block I saw it NOT IMPRESS me at all.
I buy 300K apartment, I aspect it to LOOK LIKE 300K apartment.

For you claim about low density, it not LOW like really LOW like you mention. It just normal for me judging from the land that there are develop.

and I DO KNOW about the cemetery when I buy this property. I just said it close to the boundary. This facts also u so rage about it?

I do make a homework properly before I buy.I just given a review to people who seek it.
If I want to complain I GO STRAIGHT TO KIM AGENT already. I EVEN CAN CANCEL MY PURCHASE RIGHT NOW IF I REALLY THAT COMPLAINING.

I do hope for the BEST. Didn't u notice?

HOPEFULLY YOU'RE NOT MY CLOSE NEIGHBOUR WHO WILL RAGE ABOUT EVERY SINGLE WORD THAT COME OUT FROM EVERYONE MOUTH.

Thank you

Dont know what makes you think I'm feeling RAGE. I'm cool and trying to provide you some facts. You sounded regretful purchasing this property.
The best way is to sell your unit when it's ready. With pruchase price of RM225K, you'll have a good profit margin.

And I also hope you'll NOT BE MY FUTURE NEIGHBOUR THAT COMPLAINS ABOUT ABOUT EVERY DECISIONS HE/SHE MADE IN LIFE

Both of u ..chill man..

Yes, I saw the apartment too. Maybe the color and the environment is look very sorrow.

I agreed the brown exterior color of the apartment building may not be everyone's liking but such facade and color are already shown to potential buyer in the catalog/flyers when it was launched.

Yaya..maybe I'm too ever react.

Maybe I visited the place again since I can't really go inside last time. I will take some pick to show you how its look like.

Anyway, if you want to go the show house. Just find hospital Kajang, turn into Sentosa Height(develop by MKH). Go straight until the end of the road.

Attached the site pics. Again, construction still not completed so I didnt want to risk myself to injuries so pics taken from far.

Can't see u pick la

Managed to upload it now.

dzila_87, I think we got off to an unpleasant start. I hope we can be friend as we may be living in the same building.
This Crestin Park is not really that bad. Location is good. Schools nearby not to mention close proximity to MRT stations.

The main concern is the risk of abandon & built quality cos this Developer don't have outstanding records, but they dont have bad records either.

And if you are the 1st block buyer, you already gain profit. New block already selling around RM300K for 868 sqft and around RM350K for 940 sqft.

Hi all,
just saw this properties at econsave bangi.
i really interest because this property was in town with cheap price
compare with other, i can't get it with my current salary.
after petrol increase 20sen, i think can't wait to book 1 apartment here
because this is good area because within few year we can't get this area anymore

Within 7 years this area was include greater kl 2020
after that will only can get this kind of house with this price at kuala selangor/teluk intan/banting/salak tinggi
which mean so far from kl to shopping

still available?

I've been staying there for 10 years plus. I went there when they first launched the project. Actually the location is very good. Close proximity to town and schools. I walk to Yu Hua everyday after school.

However, the place is not in close proximity to MRT station as you think or My definition of "far" is different from yours.

The location in close proximity with this location are

1. Kajang Hospital.
2. Walking distant to grocery.
3. Very near to Kajang primary township.
4. Short distant to church & mosque
5. 5 - 10 minutes drive to Kajang KTM station.
6. 5 - 10 minutes drive to New Era College.
7. 5 minutes drive to DBKL.

This is overprice.

better buy those landed by just top up 30k.

landed no need pay maintenance fees some more.

Why say over price?

Because the Taman Kajang Mulia price is 350k, landed + freehold.

With the new shops now almost all occupied (Saga Emas shops) who dares to say this location is bad now? Btw, MRT stations definitely walkable if you are a public transport sort of person.
Congrats whoever bought, and whoever is pouring cold water now will only regret not buying in 2 years' time.

yeah it was overprice for now, but in future it was cheap
btw i just sign my offer letter buy 1 unit
my banker estimate this unit will going up above 400k at end 2016

Already signed my S&P back in 2011. Back then, price was considered attractive. Construction progressing steadily. Should get key this year. With MRT ready by 2017, can sell and reap good profit then cos nearby shops and schools.

I buy this apartment..now just wait to get the key..yeayyy

i am expecting they call me for key anytime now. sign 2011/apr....

You must be one of the early batch of buyers. Can I know which one you bought ? Apartment or townhouse ?
If they don't call you for utilities deposit payment and key collection by April 2014, then it will exceed the 36 months.
Hopefully this wont happen. But with on-going construction for the new apartment block in progress, I wonder how the developer plan to hand-over the completed units to buyers. They must think of a plan so that the construction would NOT disturb the VP of early buyers like us.

Manage to go to site last February and take a look inside the apartment.
Pending to build a road. After that they will proceed with CF application. Then can collect keys.
Expected end of April 2014.

I think i last visited the site last Dec 2013 but didnt enter the apartment building. If really can get key by end of April 2014, then it would be great. I quite skeptical cos now already 1st of April. Utility deposit until today not yet ask buyers to pay also ?? Hopefully my worry is unnecessary.

Heard there would be delay in delivery mid june -july...anyone can confirmed? If this happened how's the penalty clause taken effect ? The developer need to pay certain penalty due to late delivery rite? Letter to collect deposit have been sent out end of march... U all should rcvd the ltr by now

This post has been edited by azrael_arham: Apr 2 2014, 04:58 PM

just paid the water/tnb deposit, expecting CF in 6 month.....just wait...wait and wait....

＂

Any agent called?
What is the market price
to sell?

no agent call....but not plan to sell...just want to rent...

they are selling roughly RM350-400 psf, I met the SA at MAPEX last week.

any idea what be the rental price would be.
plan to rent my unit.
so must wait 6 months only can get key?..

they said 6 month, maybe less, my experience is about 6 month. more than 6 month then something goes wrong...

3years ago saw this project...it was overprice that time.

Now saw this un finished sold project still think it is overprice.

Anyone knows the cause for delay ? 6 months is really long. Anyone's SNP date had reached 36 months ??

I saw their Sign Board advertising the Project > 3-years ago. Normally, the sign board for such projects are changed like every 3 to 6 mths.

mine not yet, because i am last few unit...

I am renting out some terrace houses in that area. Intermediate terrace is 1,200pm. I think once Crestin is completed this year you can go for 1,300pm. Rental units not easy to find in this area so you can command a decent price, if you had one.

Any update on the date of v.p?

office told my wife October...

Both townhouses and apartments ready together?

any updates?

Last check early sept. Developer already put up a barrier for phase 2 and road for phase 1 have been built. Anyone rcvd call frm developer yet? Guardhouse is not erected yet...

There is no public transporting the area. I walk to KTM station during my secondary school days it takes 30 minutes. The nearest MRT station is Bandar Kajang. At Stadium Kajang. You need to walk pass Taman Minang to Yu Hua to Hokien Association. Cross the road to he station. Maybe 20 minutes without rain.

got go to see lately? what is the status?

Hi All,

Any update on CF status? Its almost end of 2014.

when its raining, maybe 15 minutes (because you will run faster)

It's took around 45mins everyday for me to walk from KHS to sumwhere near Tabung Haji last time.
I think the distance should be slightly nearer to walk from Crestin Park to Bandar Kajang station but it still required approx 20~30mins. Maybe cycling can reach in 15 minutes .

Nope...still applying CCC...no status
