Well, if sellers can advertise info here for sale, I too can seek info here as a buyer!! I came here to give my opinion on BSC and it somehow leads naturally to where else to buy lo.... not leave for nothing or my time is wasted making a posting here, right?

Excuse me, there is just too little time//

I agree with you. Our objective here is to share our opinions and update the latest progress of BSC. We are all steady, mature, humble and serious buyers.

Serious and mature buyers.. more to it is the satisfaction! Invest lots of money, so not for something ok only. Modern management school of thought go for products that can 'delight' your customers over and above what is being ok.

eg. many customers frown at a plain looking but reliable japanese car with no touch screen GPS, no reverse camera and opt for the korean cars with all these features. Up and coming korean brands are just as good as established Japanese ones. One that is delightful to look and engine last too. Ask me and I go for the latter, and here I am talking of a home that comes with added features.

Old fashion business ways are losing today's new customers.

ak_kong, the solution for you is simple - earn more money and go and buy a property in the location of your dreams if BSC is not good enough for you. Don't expect RM1m quality for RM500k price tag. If you have 500k for a condo in PJ/KL, then go to iproperty and search or go to another thread where they discuss about properties. good luck.

Busy just a quick correction: I saw and knew BSC homes are good quality and price ok. Don't misquote me. Just the added stuff around the area I think the developer is silent on and that' why i thought of waiting. Meanwhile if something else comes, will switch plan. Thanks anyway for the tips. We are in fact into iprop. there already.

Banyan @ Mont Kiara more posh..

Banyan @ BCS a bit old fashion for young professional...

May I offer my opinion: if you hope to come home in between during work, BSC distance is a big NO! But if you are like most who travel to work in the morning and back in the evening, what distance means is only as follows:

More wear and tear for cars - increases cost of maintenance and petrol. But way offset by huge savings in house price.

More time spent on the road - yes but most others are daily affected elsewhere in LDP and other jammed city routes too. Strictly speaking, you can only eliminate this if you choose to rent as near as possible to the office. Most home buyers find city homes too expensive and thus need to accept this adversity. To me, no point ending up poor for the sake of city living. You also breathe in foul polluted air there. BSC is clean as it is a new town.

As for the feel of a posh look around, this is a factor that benefits both developers and buyers. To me, my spirit will be much soothed after a long distance to arrive home if the area looks nice and offers a good entry statement. Noone I believe should be demeaned by a plain dwelling surroundings just because they can't afford city homes. I am not saying KLK is doing this now as I am still waiting for their responce to my email.

Apparently Bromelia has 2 types of endlots design;

With Balcony



Without balcony

Infact the developer should concern about their image in the market. For this project, they should 'up-grade' their image by beautify the development at the road side such as attractive bill boards, decorative structures, flowers and plants. Just see, so many travellers use it every days.

Super forumer

Hope to achieve a win-win situation.

I hope KLK can include in their concept of 'value homes' not just for quality workmanship but also the external image of the housing scheme. I know it involves additional cost but some expenses on landscape beautification will help to enhance KLK's image and secure a niche among developers to boost their future property development. It should not be conservative by offering only good homes alone but spoil it all with ugly fences. It should not plant the kind of low shrubs that later turn into wild bushes! Flower landscaping needs costly maintenance and no developer can keep paying contractors to put fertiliser, trim and replant year after year. Planting tall and big trees that spread out in varying size and shapes does not give a uniform smart and posh look as we can see in Desa Coalfields. It looks unkempt and so common place in fact.

In order to look neat, dignified and strike an immediate impact to anyone taking a look, getting the 'wow' reaction, palms are the best. They are trim, elegant, much easier and cheaper to maintain and last and last. Even the government complexes in Putrajaya are relying on these! Many foreign officials are so impressed!

Since I was told that BSC will be more up-market than DC by Henry, I sincerely hope something significant is being done.

Note: my suggestion for palm trees is only to line the boundary roads and borders of playgrounds. Trees are still required directly in front of homes to provide the shades!

I'm one of the owner, ready to move in within this year

Some pictures of the Hibiscus phase @ BSC, 20 x 60 taken on 16 March,
Feel free to comment

Billboard @ the entrance of BSC construction site

Viewed from the photos, the materials seems to be cheap. No floor tiles provided in the family hall and the car porch?
Some people say that the new 20'x70' is expected to be 450k-500k. (Need confirmation from the office). If it is true, the sub-sales value of these 18'x60' of 220k should be worthwhile for buying.
