Friend, FYI, my friend's house in Kundang got flooded recently (about the same time when Kajang got flooded) and damaged all his furniture... Kundang used to be a palm oil plantation too... and this development is close to Kundang..

kundang is also an ex mining area.... and there are plenty of lakes around there... any way this area does sit a little higher than the surrounding areas. tasik puteri is down the road and it has never flooded before.... taski puteri also has a very decent golf course... you should check out the site...

i can assured you palm oil land can be flooded, we don't look a place flooded or not flooded by whether it is palm oil land
please don't misled ppl if you are not sure..just my 2 cents

i think this whole thread is nothing but mis leading so im just joining in the party, every body here is speculating from you to me to everyone els....everyone has 2cents to throw in... ur right about what you said i agree... all im telling you oil palm are planted on higher land and hill slopes...and this development is on oil palm land. thats all im saying.. and friend i live in rawang emerald, kuala garing, anggun, country homes has not flooded . maybe due to clog drains water rises a little but not the kind of floods you all are talking about.

anyone here know of smart developer who will let their property under water(banjir) and expect to sell like hot cakes??

Any issue of anti termite for housing on palm land? Just curious when my bro's house in tasik puteri quite bad laaa the damages because of that.just asking, okay? Not to hantam this project..

Of course they know...
Gated & guarded is very important to certain group of buyers only, frankly it is not my 1st priority, every individual has theirs' own preferences.
Gated strata is like condo, common area will be maintained by the residents, not easy...

yea thats the thing i would like to find out....i think mah seng is a responsible enough developer to carry out proper anti termite ground treatment. having said that... these days wood in houses are not very much used even roof beams are aluminium, windows are aluminium. but i will ask the more info regarding all this when i visit the show room this weekend..

Go to site there. Is lower than the road.

Dig some geographic info about M residence spot last friday when i went there.
Flood issues?
From Google Earth, the land over there was actually slightly higher, compare to kundang jaya area. Asked a local people who live at saujana rawang, according to him, no flood was occurred before in this 2-3 years. But There is a small river nearby which connects to Kundang.

Pollutions?
If you drive along Rawang town, u'll find alot of factories and heavy vehicles(lorry ,bus etc.), but once reach Bandar Baru Rawang, the air gets better. Drive along jalan batu arang and you'll found the air turns out nice after u pass by taman velox, went down the spot and breath, no smell and air is fresh. However opposite road there's a small factory in 2-3 KM away

G&G?
No confirmed answer from dev but what they promised was a guardhouse at each entrance and 24 hour guarding and night patrolling. RM120 yearly for Clubhouse Fees and Neighborhood security. For those who worried so much about G&G issues, just waited a few month till it launch and make your decision, round Feb/March 2012.

Crimes?
There is no place on M-Land that has 0 crime record. Bandar Country Homes and Saujana Rawang have few cases, so does taman velox and bandar tasik puteri. The best thing that a house developer can do is to reduce the chances to its lowest. Restricting the residence area from public access. Whether the guards will do their job well in future, we can only judge based on past projects of Mah Sing.

Will M Residence become like Setia Alam? No one can be sure, but having a Large Jusco Aeon Mall nearby is always pointing to a bright future. Examples are Bukit Tinggi, Cheras Selatan (Balakong), and Equine Park.. And from Mah Sing's past projects, i can say i believe in their QC part. Just look at Kinrara residence, Garden Residence, M City...non of them turn out to be BAD....

Just my 2 cents

just because the road is higher than the land by a few inches doesnt mean it will flood... and its a small hill they will clear the land and most prob flatten it. they are not just gonna smack houses on it. By the time they clear and flatten the land it will prob be higher or at level with the road. i dont think these developers need to be thought how to build houses.

there never is perfect info but this is useful info, thanks for sharing.
yes, when you (assuming you booked a unit) sign the spa, let us know here if it comes with a dmc to sign as well - that will confirm if it's gng or just guarded.

Better close window at nite..
Later got thick dust from pollution oh..
Factories are near the toll

Individual title (Fenced & guarded)..

mostly termites attack wooden door frames first and kitchen cabinet or wardrobe before the roof trusses, window frames

rawang air is nice and cool at night, no need for aircon.. of course you have to have ur windows open to enjoy this.. dtc

there are many 200-300k houses in rawang... why take the risk for these 400k houses....

you have a point there.. i will remember to take extra precaution when they hand over the house...

basically, i think the project is okay
but if it is not Gated and Guarded
then I believe this is overprice considering getting a semi dee in emerald

sold out if im not mistaken... and almost 100k more in price.. i may be wrong..
