I dun think phase 2 buyers willing to sell their property price at RM650k.

Anyone of you already do some research for house renovation? might to share here?

Not so sure bout the build up.. but 650k is before 7% rebate

hi all,

just a quick question, is mresidence a concept house type?
i heard from my friends that concept house cannot do external renovation, is that true?

I know that external renovation is extremely limited for strata title. But MR1 is individual title.

Yes. So knowing individual title, it wont be long till we see some units stand out from the rest i.e. major external renovation such as extensions and reconstruction

How did you get the term concept house?
That term might apply only to M2 with strata title.

I'm just asking whether mresidence is a concept house type or not because a friend of mine bought somewhere else and
his area is a concept house type which cannot do any external renovation.
According to him, the developer have the right to ask you to change back the house original design if it is a concept house
type.

I guess ur friend is referring title of the property, strata or individual, not "concept house". However, FYI only strata is affected in any kind of property in Msia.

What did ur friend buy at the end? Gated & Guarded Strata Title house?

Xenite, that applies for M2 until the residence setup their JMB where they can draw up their own management with developer. Any exprienced people backup up this statement?

even JMB was setup, the title still under strata, no external reno or changes will be allowed.

True.

Hi,

The term concept house more like a selling point, or terms used during sales by agents/developers. Real terms written in your title should be either individual title and strata title. Strata title is for high rise building where several common area (gym, swimming pool, roads within the compound etc) while individual title is for landed property. Since 2009, government approve strata title for landed property under several restrictions. As condominium do not allowed to do renovation out of your own unit, the same law still applies to landed strata title.

Mainly, reasons for strata title landed property is higher from selling point and maintenance are due to road within the community is paid and maintain by tenants in within.

Please do not confuse between Gated Community and Gated and Guarded (GnG) the terms used by most people nowadays. Gated Community mostly mean by a group of community decided to raise fencing around their own community to protect themselves and yet they hold individual title. Therefore, the road within the compound is maintain by JKR.

FYI, under Strata Title, no one other than tenant is allow to enter the area (condo/GnG) unless submit driving license etc (need register at guard house) while individual title under Gated do not have the rights to do so (even those guard act like they are the king) as the road within still under "Public".

Another title used is Master Title; it is the same as individual title but mostly used by developer to apply for whole area (conversion from agriculture to housing) and develop the area before "cutting" the area to each tenant. Many people experienced problems when trying to sell their house when the developer bankrupt before the submission to convert Master title to all tenants completed.

Although under law, it is true that no external reno, BUT if all and every tenants agreed, we can submit a proper application to have all units to have same design/extensions.

I know it is impossible to have everyone agree on your design, but the truth is we still can do external renovation if we have proper JMB set-up and every tenant agree on one design that will be build on all units.

all reno together? sound to me is mission impossible

but agree i think some mistaken master as strata

But actually for m1 .. when u sign snp n another document .. actually it stated external renovation is subject to approval of the management ... so they actually will limit the major renovation to change the facade or front elevation of the house .. but if u talking about extension of kitchen area at the back.. should be not a problem at all.
