Bayan

Been to BSC this Monday.
I drove into Bromelia and Duranta where road is accessible now.
There are "key" signs that Bromelia and Duranta owner can collect the keys already.
Oleander is almost done from what i see.

what unit the price is rm250k only?what is the developer price before?

LOL..What? 30' extra land yet it is not included in the 'land area'! Some misleading advertisement. Don't trust the broker. I know this forum is not for selling homes but we are here to protect the interest of members of the community who wish to sell their property. And I am not yet selling my Banyan. Some mean brokers are not able to withstand long without selling any unit and thus may exploit the ignorance of home sellers. From what I see, the value of Banyan semi-ds are worth more than the range advertised. Let us run a brief comparisons between different semi-ds, all are new launches and prices quoted are as what you buy this year, so ignore whether they are newly launched prices or subsales. It is what you are asked to pay if you buy now.

Here it goes:
Note: when it comes to advantage and disadv. , they are strictly my personal view, no offence intented. After reading, you will agree that what were advertised are undervalued for the Banyans. One should do a similar comparison for the other types of homes. Convince the brokers then they can't suppress your prices for quick commissions!

Date of advertisement: 5/13:

2-stry Clover semi-d Cyberjaya Mahsing Garden Residence, ready by dec 2014, freehold, just enquired price is min. 1.73million after developer discount, 3213 sq. ft. 40x80', near ERL,
G&G. Just visited the Aspen Show Village in Cyberjaya to see the show unit.
Advantage: afluent image, more urbanised than BSC. This said, BSC is not lacking in facility but has a suburb. image. So how much price difference should there? BSC is ready for occupation by another few months. It can offer immediate subsale/rental returns. Clover is another 1 1/2 year more.

Disadv. (my personal view strictly) split up very high to dinning, stairs very near front door entrance. Banyan semi-d has a staircase that starts further in between the hall and dining, but the powder room by the side of the hall takes away about 8ft of the width. It has an open feel, with no rising stairs greeting you right away when you step in. Distance: Cyberjaya is about 32km. Fr. I Utama, one way, travel time=45min. via LDP (jam). BSC=26km. and 45 min. via LDP to Jln. Kuala Selangor (jam) or via NKVE to Guthrie Corridor Expressway to Jln. Batu Arang ( smooth traffic)=34km. Travel time: 37min.

Do I sound like a broker ? No, I am just armed with facts, that's all. I sold my old corner link that way for a good price.
Pm me if you wish to know or discuss what is a good price for the Banyans.

I used Public Bank and I make some calls too to expediate the payment. Tomorrow will be collecting the keys. Just a small reminder for those who will be collecting their keys too, pls bring appropriate tools to mark any complaints eg tape, measuring tape, marker, camera and so forth and have a torough checks.

Hi guys,

I just went to KLK office to pay up the RM450. I was informed that friday and saturday appointment to collect key is full. Hopefully can get some feedback by then. I maybe getting my appointment time on monday.

By the way, Anybody know anything/experience on ADT alarm system? Thought of installing it for my house.

Thanks
Durantan

Malay Arecan here.. .Anyone have new photos of Areca ?

did you know we can drive in now already?
Areca even not complete yet you able view in close distance.

I remember this one opened to staff only?

Really? , thanks for the info.I am currently in oversea and will return to KL for Hari Raya.Will grab the opportunity to view the house. Thanks mate.

Went for house inspection today. Kunci ada, air & letrik tada. Was told by the site supervisor that
all units have already been connected with underground fiber-optic cables. Have to verify with TM
as we were told by an Unifi agent that TM will only set up the ports with 60% occupancy. Hope it's
not going to lead to a Catch-22 situation. Workmanship wise, hardly any complaints.
