i stay near by for 20 yrs, advice buyer to go site visit and BUKA MATA BESAR-BESAR before buying...

ada udang di sebalik batu?

the access highway super jam in the morning?....still fetch such high price for what?...any developer interest bearing scheme?...if not..then not worth it....we are the sucker paying such a premium for future value...which is not sure yet...with such situation in US...we dunno what will happen in future...

Haha.

Same situation goes to old klang road and jalan puchong....more than 5 project being launch and all condo ..cant imagine after 2014, wat traffic condition will be....==

OMG ! i was there this evening, if you are a chinese, u won't buy it. Very pantang !

What is the psf ? Really 611psf?

It depend on which fengshui sifu. Some sifu said near pylon not good coz heavy sha qi. Some sifu said near cemetery, hospital, police station also not good coz heavy sha qi. If for own stay and u don't mind that is fine. If for investment purpose unless it is low price, otherwise possible avoid it coz your target buyer or tenant will be reduce into half.

long time nvr pass that road liao..
forgot there got muslim cemetry..
that aside..the location very near to city center...
bt to go to town...is another story..
u need to make a mad dash across the 3 lane traffic to make a turn..
else u need to drive like 1km to the u turn after kampung malaysia raya..

midfields going at 420k for 1000sqft .. i dont see how this one is better than midfields ..
care to start making a comparison on this one ?
midfields lush landscape, by reputable developer, better located ..
so how can this be more expensive than the currently gonna vp midfields ?
also how is this pricing different from G residence that was recently launched ?

This post has been edited by zavier98: Aug 31 2011, 08:04 AM

I pass by that road everyday cause i stay near by there now... no jam on that road, so no problem to drive 1km just to make a U turn.. cause it much more better than those place which jam until cant move.

What happen 20yrs ago? anyway i think not so important la....

---

Added on September 1, 2011, 12:07 amDo you knw that midfield maintenance fees is rm0.35 psf.. so it cost around rm400++ per month just to pay maintenance fees and midfields carpark is located far away so need to walk far to access to ur unit.

G residence is almost 500k. Actualy if stay alone.. dun need buy so big unit and suffer ourself to pay the bank debt.. no chocie i am not born rich.

---

Added on September 1, 2011, 12:11 amPylon also not good for health... even no scientific prove on that.. but it advise to stay far from it. If talk abt feng shui, even i believe on it.. but at the end.. still our mindset control ourself, if u think is good, then sure is good... if u think no good.. no matter where u stay.. u will received bad luck only...

Opposite also got Chinese cemetery which is temple type...

is just a less than 0.5 acre malay cemetary..

Opposite cemetary....!!!
Build on the abandon site.
Traffic on Besraya no problem. Morning time Will only jam when reach midfield junction.
Landscape: u can "lift ur head" and see the KL Sermban Highway traffic jam.
Good luck for those who have bought ......

anyone bought?/ where is the sales office?

My fren just ask me whether this project worth or not, and i told him, not worth it.

Anyone wanna challenge my advice? hahahaa

Why so? But my personal view, its better than The Leafz or MidField.

Mind explain y better than the leafz n mid fields?

Based on facilities, unit view, ceilling height and most important for me are the carparks. Comparison based on my budget of rm450k. Central Soho still on my top list.

---

Added on November 10, 2011, 6:05 pmIt just a small area. Doesnt seems a problem or feel uncomfortable, unless it is a big cemetery land like nilai nirvana. Traffic... Ermm almost everywhr jam nowadays, depending which direction you heading and what time you heading out. Well highways... Haha, is a city hugs by highways for sure. Maybe can have peaceful surrounding at cyberjaya, thats might help.

You got one already? I just book a unit (A-9-3A) just now RM457k for 731 sf with RM100. This unit is not facing the cemetery. Got 3 days to change my mind. Any advice for me?

With the price of 457k, you can consider palace court (leasehold, 2/3 rooms) or the leafz (freehols, 1 room) aorund the same area. ...If you buy for own stay, then just follow your affordability and preference will do ....

i think i won't want a leasehold, so palace court is out. for leafz, i need to survey more. not sure still got unit or not also.

Well you can compare both Leafz and Central Soho with unit view, car park, facilities. you buying for your own stay? i assume your unit is pool view right? mine is S2 unit (731sf) , pool view, 2 car parks. around RM450k.

me too just paid the RM3k deposit yesterday for the same S2. now preparing document for bank loan approval. maybe we can be neighbors on day if my loan approved. yours is which floor? mine is 9th floor.

Mine is 7th. , so have you compare the Leafz or others?

wa 7th floor, seems like direct one swimming pool in front of your unit le

i didn't see leafz show room. i think leafz slightly cheaper but it's okay i think central residence not bad also. i guess each has its good and bad.

When was this launch?

A month back

---

Added on December 9, 2011, 7:14 pmYeap direct. Agreed both are more or less, well lets hope the showroom built is nice next month.

Anyone interested? I know someone inside, who might be able to give rebates... minimal rebates lar (ie 1k) depending on number of buyers, but better than nothing... ;-)

PM me if you're interested..

aiyo, i paid the deposit already lo. should get from u, so can save Rm1k but its ok la.

Ai yar... think on the bright side...
You have securred a better lot, since you bought earlier...
if you only lock in now, maybe ur precious 7th floor not there anymore? ;-)
anyway, if you have friends who wanna buy, can try.. ;-)
discreetly pls... PM me.. ;-)

The location is good n nearby TBS... expect for good value after completion..well, can consider to hv one but have to research first..

Hi, now got chinese new year promotion if I introduce you. PM me if interested. I will let you give u more info like which units are available and some other info like price.

Added on December 23, 2011, 8:57 pmi just got offer already bank B (conventional with full flexi plan) already, 90% loan for BLR -2.4%, first 3 years lock in (5% penalty if fail to lock in). was it a good deal?

This post has been edited by ngaisteve1: Dec 23 2011, 08:57 PM

PM me the info thanks.

Just read from paper "The Court Service Apartment @ Central Residence, Sungai Besi".. Same developer and also looks like in the same location, does anyone have any clue?

price from RM750psf

Geng.. KL City price or higher than average unit at Mont Kiara..

based on iproperty.. Minimum price from 600k for 800sqft ++...

If this benchmark with the Leafz... ..then The Leafz is safer bet...

Actually i was quite curious why there are booth in shopping mall, for this property???? i saw it in NSK( Kuchai Lama) and Mid Valley ( Near Carefour entrance).....is that implying the sales of the project??? or it was merely a very big scale project which market need some time to digest just like OUG parklane.........................

what the difference court block from other previous one

court block is service apartment and previous one i think is SOHO/Studio...

ANY IDEA WHICH ONE OFFERS MORE INVESTMENT VALUE(PARKLANE AND CENTRAL SG BESI)? I THINK THE 4000 UNITS IN PARKLANE OUG REALLY HINDER THE FUTURE VALUE.

how this project get so many hsbc awards.
while abandoned?

I was pretty interested too in this project but after seeing the site plan, is it the only entrance to this area is through Nirvana? That is a definite no no for me.

The Leafz @ Sg Besi,

My friend is kinda interested with this project but I'm on the other hand skeptical about its location right next to cemetery.

Chinese pantang for sure. Thanks, I didn't know about the cemetery. I only suspect the only entrance is through Nirvana and I felt if that is true, I wouldn't want to be passing-by the dead and funeral rites everyday. Anyways, need to be at the site to confirm.

Needless to clarify on this, as the sales person told me in person that there is a malay cemetery just across the road of this project. I don't think the sales person would lie to put off a deal closure.

HI rongfu, what made u think The leafz is better>? their freebies?

I think they hv running out of units at the moment right? But from the outlook i think the leafz is greener. lol

1) malay cemetary just across
2) front and back highway, if you can take the noise and pollution sure it's not an issue.
3) for that high of a PSF, there are a lot more better choices

The Leafz also facing Nirvana if u r on KLCC view

if you think of investment, u have to take into consideration when u sell it, the buyer will pantang or not.

For own stay, it might not be problem. And finally if u really bad luck, and wanna sell, you will have a tough time too. So good luck for those who got it.

i pass by this central soho everyday. it has been abandoned since 1997 crisis till now. Facing muslim cemetery and that corner part of highway very dirty. always got accident, i myself saw with my own eyes a lorry overturn at the road of opposite direction. i tot they will build from the existing frame up that is left by last developer but no. They now demolishing the frame all that i think they will build again from ground up.

I live opposite salak south garden dont know whats good with this one ? front and back also highway cars keep moving non stop how to have a good rest and the project is like in the middle of nowhere

I think the ppl who likes SOHO are those younger generation, where cemetary shouldn't be an issue i guess. LOL For the highway issue, well it shows a quicker access to the main road. I think it does bring a pros and cons.

Added on May 9, 2012, 10:19 pmHi Vincent, mind to share which where offers a better one? Bcz im looking to a possibility to grab one condo soon.

This post has been edited by buejwong: May 9 2012, 10:19 PM

Bought a unit at 25th Floor Phrase 1. Soho unit. Two Car parks and FREEHOLD!

Heard almost all units of Phrase ! SOHO Block sold out!

Now, Phrase 2 - the Service Condo are open for sale.
Same Developer, and the design concept for Central Residence is very updated and refreshing and practical, compare to the typical CONDO Blocks that are being sold around KL.
Salak South/OKR/Kuchai areas are the next KL Development miracle.
Because it is close to all major highways access, and Besraya terminals a KM away!

KL next golden triangle areas are going to be around these few areas, do you think so?
Look at the traffic.. its really busy. Those are good signs of crowds movements for commerce and business opportunities etc.

Ya, agree with yr statement.. u were talking about the bandar malaysia that gotta developing on the old sg besi army camp right? hopefully it can bring some goods and enhancement of value to the project.

About the phase 2, any idea how much its gotta be per sq ft?

Regarding the bandar malaysia in sg. besi, I read somewhere, if I remembered correctly, it's not going to be happened before 2018/2020

I think Salak South OKR Lama, Happy Garden Gembira area to Besraya stretch will be highly sort after as these are freehold suburbs of KL !
With or without That army camp or old airport development etc

This stretch is too close to KL and yet prejudiced by most people as mid class areas etc

This area is not a University town like Sunway .
No high volume of students to spur the business in this area.

It is an area link by major highways to link to most
Parts of CBD KL.

And that's the USP!
Unique selling point !

??????????

Hi, I have bought a unit of Soho 565sf... May I know which bank is offering the best rate? What about the lawyer fees for loan agreement? Do you guys manage to get a cheaper lawyer fees?

in my pov, the built up area really doesnt appeal to a lot of people. but there's a lot of development is happening in nearby area plus the easy access to KL road. but since the tenure is freehold, i think someone who has a little bit of cash can consider investing here

i've been living nearby for 15 yrs, i think this place has potential just my point of view

This post has been edited by souliedude: Jun 9 2012, 11:17 PM

Hi Joan. Im thinking in btw ALB, HLB or MBB. All are manage to offer -2.4. For the lawyer fees, i have no clue at all. most probably will use the bank lawyer?

Hi Joan, mind to share whats make up ur mind to venture a Soho unit for this central residence? As the bu considerably small..

Hi Thruster,

Yea. No doubt the unit is small, but I kinda like the 2 rooms concept for just 565sf! Even the leaf with 700+ sf but the design only with 1 room. I am quite impress after viewing the show room in their office. The design is the Hong Kee concept.. Although is small, but with the high ceiling, u won't feel the unit is small and compact.

Secondly, the access and the location is very convenient especially with the shuttle bus services provided to the residents.

Just my 2 cents..

---

Added on June 17, 2012, 8:53 amI just got called from ALB, they said the bank have cap the loan to RM645/sf compare to the selling price regardless which floor. I have to fork up RM35k for the unit that I choose... Hence, ALB is totally out of my mind now!

Will try to apply MBB, CIMB, and UOB.. Hopefully they can offer BLR-2.4 as well!

Which type you are buying? Soho or service apartment?

This post has been edited by Joan CLC: Jun 17 2012, 08:53 AM

Hei guys

Try UOB Bank.
Their OKR Business Branch may help you get a loan you wanted.
My loan already approved under UOB Bank.
Gd Rates too.


Cheers
Jeff

I got the SOHO unit with 731 sq ft. If that is the case then ALB may be the bad choice for u or u may try others like HLB oso.

565 sf with 2 rooms ? wonder how big the room will be

Ok. Thanks for the info.

still saw a booth at mutiara damansara selling this central residency, still not yet fully sold?

Central Residence Soho or Central Residence Courts for sale. ? You saw at mutiara Damansara?

Hi All,

I am newbie here. Hope can learn from all the sifu & master around. I have bought a 731 sqft at level6 facing swimming pool. I have signed my bank offer letter earlier before I signed my snp last week.


Hi Citydude,

I guess they are still selling the Central Residence Soho. According to their SA last 2 weeks, they have bulk (around 80 units) which were released out again due to loan rejected. But now, less than 10 units left. I am quite impressive with this developer (Yuk Tung Land/ HR Group) because they have sold quite some units to foreigner (according to the SA). Their Central Residence Courts for the first months sales is 30% sold. I feel that their SA are genuine in the sense that they are honest and telling the truth. Not like some SA from other projects claim that their units are almost sold out and push you to grab one before sold out. I think this project is the slowest in term of sales compare to the condo around Kuchai lama/Old klang road which are BBB mode either sold out/ or almost sold out as they claim....

Hi there.

Yes, i agree with you. I also find the Sales People for this project using tact and honest to tell us, buyers.
They help me to choose the better units, or accordingly to my budget.
They also told me that the Residence Units will be selling soon, instead of hiding this fact.
But, a SOHO Licence is different from residence. Residence cannot operate as a business unit, or small business/plus stay.
I saw the SOHO units at Plaza Mont Kiara, and their 2 rooms units are just nice. Simple and business people can use one room ass boss room and the other room as meeting room, and the other staff ( around 5 can still sit with desk) inside the office.

That is why, i accept the 731sq ft concept. Just good enough for small, simple users. Companies having less than 8 staff can comfortably use the office and yet, work around in a very nice conducive office, with pools, and surroundings greens is the new way to go to work.

We Malaysians in KL are so used to large big offices as office use, and never think, in 5yrs or 8 years, when most younger capable people use simple Broadband offices to do their work, instead of rushing and traveling distance to show face at 9am!

So, yes. I think, being FREEHOLD this Central Residence is indeed good enough.
Yes, everywhere, i go, other projects, their sales people are kinda very arrogant. The SALES Person for Central Residence were polite, helpful and provide info as well as he can.

Hi Citydude,

Me too. I kinda like the SOHO concept. My current office is at Damansara Intan and the built up around 500 sqft. 4 person workings. The rental here is not cheap. >RM 2,000 ++. It is a conventional commercial office building. I am dreaming how good if my boss willing to rent a SOHO unit at Central Residence (after completion) where the staff can enjoy all the facilities especially the sky gym/sky pool. Is a win-win situation. Is like giving Fitness Membership to the staff to enjoy the facilities like gym and swimming. The staff can also be healthy and can do something to avoid the peak hours jam.

IF the office cum SOHO or Condo version, u prefer for Central Residence, its up to US. The good point is it is a SOHO Licence. U can operate a business. At the other side, the Central Residence, it is for residence staying, and SOHO address is NOT allowed.

The small negative points that many are pointing here, is the Muslim Cemetery. That is facing opposite the main Jalan Road, while driving past Central Residence on the small country road, that leads to Salak South/Sungei Besi Road Junctions, etc.

If i look at the Taman Tun Dr Ismail side, while passing that road, u also notice, Muslim Graves, and now, tall buildings and condos are next to the Muslim Graves.
Anyone saying its bad vibes? Feng Shui?
If so bad fengshui, would the Developer dare enough to sell so high price?

ummm, look at Ex Wisma MAA, now, under Zurich Insurance, etc. this Ex Wisma MAA along that road from Dewan Bahasa, is next to Chinese Cemetery, the biggest cemetery hill in KL/Sungei Besi area.

Yet, the owners flourished and made so much riches.....

Hi Citydude,

The trend has changes. Mostly buyer for the central residence are youngster. They don't mind their units are facing cemetary. There are a lot of people condemn this projects saying that facing cemetary and is used to be abandoned project. Abandon projects already bring bad luck to previous developer and now sure will bring bad luck to current developer. The fact is that 526 units of central residence soho is almost SOLD OUT. People buy the whole concept of development of this development.

I wonder if 196 hectare Bandar Malaysia @ sungai besi new and vibrant landmark reflecting the Greater Kuala Lumpur really put into construction, most of the high rise building will able to view the vast biggest chinese cemetary hill in KL/Sungei Besi. My question is , Will it drag down the price of the properties there? Will the developer lower down their selling price? Will people not buying?? I doubt the answer is 'NO'.

A cemetery view of course will definitely minus a point but people will still buy because if the whole concept of the development. That's why not everyone is rich. Only the people can see it as a gold will benefit from it. The poor will keep on complaining.
