Well bro, I believe Rawang is not everyone's cup of tea still although it is changing with more people liking this area everyday. Noted the tentative price that I mentioned is the price I heard from my source, though not confirm yet since they have not announce it, and whether it is before or after any discount , buildup size etc is not known yet too. But, it sounds possible, considering the emerald Gardens 2 storey is now 800k+, without clubhouse, slightly further in and is almost sold out already too, and Bandaraya is expected to launch their Semi-ds tentatively starting from 1.5mil to 2mil by end of next year too.

The point that I am trying to make is, it is true that the price does not sounds cheap, but I don't think there is other landed development that is cheaper than this development still or has something comparable with the following:

- within 25km radium from KL/PJ/Shah Alam
- Freehold
- Gated and Guarded
- Tenby International School in the pipeline
- Clubhouse on a lake
- Perimeter CCTV, grand entrance with 24/7 security
- Still in the early stage of developments, with lots of potential in the near future.
- with an AEON mall (or comparable neighbourhood mall) with cinema at your doorsteps
- with new commercial that are similar to the type of Sunway Giza under construction now, and developer has reserved many lots to partially control the tenant mix targeted to preferred tenants, such as banks, restaurants etc.
- Without front gate: hence neighbors and children have more interaction (Many residence in Anggun 1 is experiencing the same thing, unlike other taman where children is usually not safe play outside, here every evening, we can see many children and family playing or gathering outside, though need to watch out for cars and not recommended to play at junction for safety.
- The developments by Hongbeeland, Guocoland, Tan& Tan, and Bandaraya, 4x heavy weight developers are developing side by side and each of them are benchmarking themselves as a high-end development, it will be a DPC, Setia Eco Park, Sierramas, a combination or something even better that will be built side by side.

Still if it is the location of Rawang that is one concern, I belief we should break up into these 2 to objectively determine how "Good" is the location:

Location - Distance:
I always belief that distance is a definite scientific measurement rather than objective, although we are often misguided by our perception/feeling that it is so far/long to travel to this area or that area. But, we can objectively determine the far/closeness of the location, and how long/short it takes to travel to the place that we go most often, e.g. works, or family/friends/relative etc. I have find this information by bro masbruno very helpful to determine the Distance part thumbup.gif

Location - Surrounding/Branding:
On the other hand, if the surrounding/branding of the location is a concern, it is changing, and it will continue to change. Successful Landed Gated & Guarded enclave in the initial stage often take times to change its perception due to its size of the land for the township, and when it has developed and changed the perception, many people have already missed the boat . Past is good to serve as a reference/starting point, but how the area is changing to become in the future is more important, some of the example:
- DPC, it is previously being perceived as in Kepong,
- Sierramas, it is previously being perceived as in Sungai Buloh
- Setia Ecopark, it is previously being perceived as in Klang/Meru.
- and now the 4 developments by Hongbeeland, Guocoland, Tan & Tan, and Bandaraya, EACH are benchmarking themselves to become the next successful high-end gated and guarded developments such as above, it is still being perceived as in Rawang. but noticed the change of perception for Rawang is already happening in such a short time over the past 2-3 years? now is still before Bandaraya with their high end development coming in, and Tan & Tan with their Sierramas 2 coming in and already have experience in rebranding Sungai Buloh previously coming in too. This perception for this place is already changing rapidly already. There are 5000 acres+ of land 3-4 km radium from AEON Rawang for a combination of medium-high and high-end developments, and there are 2000+ acres side by side of AEON Rawang by 4 reputable developers moving towards developing this area as a high end landed development, massive gated and guarded residential, beautiful landscape, commercials etc.

In the next few years, this area will be THE LARGEST GATED AND GUARDED, HIGH-END LANDED residential area, probably in the entire Malaysia. And with the security in recent years in many places deteriorating and people are more into lifestyle house, rather than just a house, this area will be very much sought-after more and more everyday. Just like in the past when people are looking for high-rise residential, many people might settle for an apartment without security or facilities, now the trend is security and facility is a must, and buyer buying a mid and above high-rise residential will not settle for one without security and facilities, and IMHO, the trend now is security and facilities is moving towards a must for high-end residential seeker, too, and this area has a massive Gated & Guarded development to fill in that gap thumbup.gif

i like it when you say..."even after a late night with lots of drinks rawang still doesnt feel so far" hahahah cheers to that! would need to travel frequent to subang area since i work around there.. hahaa

Cheque is prepared by credit admin, hence you have to collect it @ MahSing HQ Jalan Sungai Besi...

Hi

I'm one of he owner of 22x80 Phase 1. I have booked time for key collection in October.

May I know if any owner know if we can fully extend the back of the unit? Saw some clause in the DOMC mentioned that any modification to the exterior of the unit need to get permission from the management.

Any owner have the same renovation plan?

Thanks
