I thought the SA said maintenance is 0.27psf + sinking fund and aircond included but no TV, fridge and washing machine.

you can go to http://pangaeacyberjaya.com for more info.

As far as the pangaea project itself, below is what I think personally after some surveys:
1. Cyberjaya Location : It is close to the national Adminstration capital - Putrajaya, Commercial capital - KLCC and potential industrial hub - Selangor Science Park II. Itself it also a vibrant IT-based Industrial Hub.
To be exact, Cyberjaya is next to Selangor Science Park 2 (west of Cyberjaya) and Putrajaya (east of Cyberjaya), accessible to KLCC via MEX, PJ/Klang/Nilai/Seremban via Elite, NKVE and Cheras/Kajang/Sungai Long/Banting and West Coast Fronts via SKVE. It also has ERL between KLCC-Putrajaya-KLIA. It is also close to KLIA (south of Cyberjaya) via Elite and dedicated dengkil-Sepang highway.
Thus, it is easy access to the Sea (Port Klang/Beaches), Air (KLIA/LCCT) and Land (the highways to other places) Entrance and Gateway of Klang Valley.

2. Cyberjaya Features -
Community - It has international outlook with the MNC, and international school, college and universities in the locality, with plenty of international student population and expat. High end working class with above average earning capability and higher middle class and above community.
Development Hotspot - it is the developer's hot focus for the next 10 years in residential, commercial and enterprise as planned out by the local authority and caretaker like Cyberview, Setia Haruman and MDeC. Big names developers like SP Setia, Mah Sing, OSK Property, Glomac, MCT, UEM Land, etc are here to stay.
Infrastructure - it has good integrated city planning as in term of road/rail network, landscaping, usage zoning, and strict environmental consideration, high speed communication network in fiber optics and wireless set-up, security monitoring. You only see this type of focus by the relevant authority in shah alam in klang valley and nusajaya Johor.
Future Plan - Aim to be model of future city, also more university will come and new amenity like private hospital is in the plan.

3. Project Features -
Location - if you take a look at the master plan of cyberjaya, you will notice that the Pangaea project is close to Selangor Science Park II. Also, it is next to MMU and will be at the centre among the residential developments at Cyberjaya, i.e close to The Arc, Mutiara Ville, Cyberia, Symphony Hills, Serin Residences, and future development by Paramount and MK Land, Vita and even PRIMA. This means a big catchment of population especially important for its commercial entity to thrive - the SOHO, Offices, Shoppping Mall. It is close to the Elite and MEX exits as well.
Concept - all in one world - this project has the most complete components of all projects in cyberjaya so far - the one big central green park, the one concentric shopping mall with entertainment, cinema and shops, the retail shoplots and SOHO, the street malls, hotel, offices, and service apartments.
Developer - OSK Property's arm - strong financial mothership and reputation.

4. Unit Features - the features I like about this soltice as follow:
- landscape - sky garden and thematic garden
- facilities - have good range of facilities
- view - if you take higher floors, then good view of the green parks and also the Putrajaya and the Lake.
- fully furnished - just bring your suitcase and move in with your laptop.

Basically, the obvious con is cyberjaya may be facing oversupply issues if the demand does not follow as expected. I believe the demand will come once the projects are up and more company and university come in. If you can hold for 2-3 years till 2020 (project completion in 2017/2018), then no worry.
If for own stay, should be fine. If for rental, then target young professionals and high end students.

no lah, but as I intend to vest there, so do some surveys and just sharing what I think, nothing more.

I used to think the same. But then they are planning and developing for the next 5-10 years. The future factor is priced into it.

The same applies to those MRT nearby areas where you can see 1000 to 1200psf for SOHO, SOFO, SOVO and service apartments in Kota Damansara, Section 16/17, TTDI, few sections along Federal highway etc and even higher closer to KLCC. Thus, 500-650psf at cyberjaya is really not a big shout considering it is well planned, easy access to places and less traffic congestion and relatively 'quiet'.

Added on October 16, 2012, 7:03 pmchecked with SA just now. Was told already more than 60% sold for Tower 1, during this week before the official launch by the VVIP and VIPs. The nice East and South facing units in Tower 1 are almost all gone!. Look like have to wait for Tower 2 to get a good view unit....

Soltice is next to the 6 acres central park and Parklane OUG has > 4k units. thus about the same lor. But the design and concept of Pangaea is much more attractive and interesting.
So far, most comments on Cyberjaya has been on (i) Far, (ii) Expensive, (iii) Too Quiet/no entertainment and (iv) Oversupply.
For (i), well, Shah Alam, Bangi, Kajang, Rawang all are far from KL too but never a problem for people to travel to KL. I guess distance is not an issue if there is good highway networks as long as no traffic jam and not too many traffic lights along the way. For (ii), most places in and outside KV are expensive nowadays, especially for new development with well planned township with infrastructure, landscape, security and modern concept. For (iii) The arrival of Pangaea, D pulse, Sky park etc will solve this problem. For (iv), this is the tricky part. But the same was said to Puchong, Subang, PJ highrise sections, etc previously but these places are still hot places.

no lah. guess I need to ask OSKP to pay me commision ah?
Just that I used to work in Cyberjaya and I have seen it risen from 2 companies land mass (MMU and MDeC) back in 1999 to what it is today as one of vibrant enterprise hub, amidst slow paced development in the past 10 years and controversy. I believe if the government agency is serious in this wave of development with the developer coming in for residential and commercial entity, then cyberjaya can be transformed into a true city - well organised, safe, green, international, with intelligent and highly civilised community, reminiscent of overseas suburbia.
On a personal front, I like the design and concept of Pangaea, remind me of mid-valley type of development.

If you target for rental, the type A 450psf unit can be considered. But if you target the average student, then will be difficult. Hope not so many flippers for this project though.

Added on October 17, 2012, 7:59 amI believe all sell then build STB mode always has this type of risk. Good deveoper will normally factor this risk in and reflected in the sale price.
That is why the built then sell BTS concept is safer for purchaser but definitely the price will be higher than usual. Come 2015 onwards if the gomen really forces the BTS concept, the property price will definitely go up and supply may see downturn.

You are right. I went there also. Need to dig info from the project team via the SA piece by piece. Anyway, I also book one unit, a duplex.

I went to the OSKP office at Damansara side and also the SKB office at PJ. Managed to grab one duplex 980sft 2 +1 type C, at high floor south facing unit (face the central park). Initially intended to get lower floor but not many choice left for the East and South facing units. The west facing units still got plenty though.

yes indeed these areas are heavily populated and thus the traffic into and out between KL to these areas are really busy. One just have to notice the traffic flow along federal highway, KESAS, LDP, and kajang cheras highway, especially during peak hours to get an idea.

For cyberjaya, indeed it is for long term, 5-8 years the least. Pangaea, D pulse, Sky Park, Shaftbury etc are possibly the projects to pull in the crowd and population during the next 3-5 years. That is why price is still in the range of 500-600psf at cyber for integrated development projects. Similar projects in other not so far places are all going to the 800-1000psf range and keep on increasing and BBB mode on still and going to 1300-1400psf range closer to KL.
In fact, house prices in puchong, kinrara, seri kembangan, serdang closest to cyberjaya are no longer cheap especially those with good design/concept. May be some people who work in Cyberjaya would consider Cyberjaya residential if there is such option available now (previously no many such option mah). If Selangor Science Park 2 next to cyberjaya does take off, this will provide additional job market variant. But again, this will take times.

Of course investing in matured areas is safer bet, at least not depreciating. In fact, even Rawang has seen high price hike in recent years for new project with good design concept, SMDs easily go >1Million. I am not so familiar with Rawang but I am sure some taikor vested in Rawang can comment on this.

For cyberjaya, it is for long term investment.

Added on October 18, 2012, 8:58 pmseems like more buyers of pangaea soltice are surfacing. yours is the 36th floor? my is above yours.

when I booked mine, there is still 1 duplex unit left at top floor. guess it is gone in between. top floor is close to sky garden, just need to climb one stair up.

exactly, but there are these 3-bedtoom type B for family and 2 bedroom type C for small family for upgrader.
Price wise, what tosay, seems all new project with nice concept are high price, the concept is future and so is the price.

Added on October 19, 2012, 11:30 amIf you qualify for 90% loan, and get a high floor unit, basically you need pay only 3% of purchase price. This is flipper friendly package leh.
If you can ony get 70% loan due to 3rd property, then need to fork out more cash lor. extra 20% of cash that is.

my fren passed by the place at lunch time and said only one unit left for the 893sft 3 bedroom type B.

could be someone withdraw or oskp is holding the unit and releasing now. when I was at the SKB office, they told me some units were blocked by oskp.

anyone has managed to get the list of specification for teh soltice service apartment? like what is the wall system using shear wall or clay brick, floor finishes?

Can you share what is the plan for the Gallery and Hotel at Pangaea by OSKP? for example, any confirmed tenant for the shopping mall, which hotel coming etc?

went to the sales office today. looks like there are about 30% of tower 1 soltice unit left. I roughly counted, duplex about 13 units at low floors, 3 bedroom about 4-5 units at low floors, some 10-12 of 450sft unit facing east at low and vergy high floors whereas the rest are 450sft units facing west and north.
Tower 2 is also open for preview now.
