Saw exhibition booth of Rimba Residence at I-Property Exhibition. Also forest concept with low dense (238 units) at Bandar Kinrara next to Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve. A lot of interest shown on several forum.

Is forest concept now a picking up trend?

Also read in another forum that there could be changes to DF master plan for future phases. How true? Positive?

Yes, it will be next to Flora Damansara. If you check the Wikimapia map, it will be surrounding the Opo Lake...

Latest news in the SUN today

http://www.thesundaily.my/news/375633

A third block has now been released, of which 80% has been sold. Prices are currently hovering at an average of RM550 per sq ft. The fourth block of the first phase will open for sales in a few months, upon which prices will likely increase to around RM600 per sq ft.

Beyond that, the company has another trick up its sleeve, in the form of a land parcel in Bandar Sri Damansara, of which it doesn’t want to reveal too much for now.

What;s this trick???

Block D is 80% sold. Still so long more for Block C launch??

Is it correct that each carpark floor has its direct entrance/exit meaning your car can go straght into/out of your carpark floor?

The credit note will be received after the the S&P has been signed?

Saw at sales office today block D has over 50 units or 25% unsold

http://www.theedgemalaysia.com/in-the-fina...h-rm1b-gdv.html

Total of 928 units so average per block = 232 units
Total of 3 blocks launched = 696 units
Block D with no stickers yet = 55 units

So 696-55-550=91.

oes this imply that there is still a pool of about 90 units either drop out not replaced or not yet sign S&P?

For Block A/B, the price psf for different units on the same floor are in the range of plus or minus RM10 psf only. Only thing is for Block A, every floor increase by RM6k and between 24th floor and 25th floor there was a high jump in price. Maybe 25th floor can oversee the top of the mountain...

For Block D, the developer adopted a view premium strategy. For illustration, below is the psf price for 35th floor of Block D

1) No 1 - 545
2) No 2 - 577
3) No 3 - 550
4) No 4 - 585
5) No 5 - 547
6) No 6 - 584
7) No 7 - 545
8) No 8 - 577

You can see the forest view premium attached to No 2,4,6 and 8.

No 4 and 6 has the higher psf price. No 1,3,5 and 7 about the same psf price.

Believed that Block C will also adopt the same pricing stategy.

Wonder upon VP will the subsale market command the same?

Just hope that upon VP in 2015, psf is at RM600 and everybody make money

How low?

Facilities is at level 7 so may have slight noise from the pool and can also be at eye level with the sky walk (not sure how high). The forest view from the balcony will be indirect and partial but will have fresh oxygen...

Depends on whether you are buying for rental, investment or own stay.

If rental may not matter much depending on the tenant

If investment so long as the whole phase appreciate a lot, the demand will be there and lower floor with lower psf price may suit more potential buyers

If own stay, it is your call...

Just my 1 cent worth

Forest view seems to be very very hot. Check the various forum on Rimba Residence. Need to ballot now! Classic got money also cannot buy!

Presumed that you are referring to Block D side facing west. Is that under sungai buloh view?

Any drop out unit from block A and B available?

My Relatives went to showroom n was keen but block d now all above rm800k...

Btw, checked out the kitchen cabinet provided. Have to say that the quality is not so, you know what I mean

At what stage is this new MRT line? Under proposal? Approved for future?

If S&P is going to be dated in July means that L&G only expect VP at end of 2015 (42 months from S&P date) to avoid any LAD

But understand that constuction already started in 2011, right? So they are taking more than 48 months to complete??

Added on June 20, 2012, 9:57 pmHehe, got it...

Just took a look at the brochure, it is stated as "Expected Completion : Dec 2015 (subject to final confirmation)"

Guess we are the naive ones...

The last i saw at the showroom still have about 20% unsold for Block D.

According to the SA, so he said, that there are many interested buyers but because the unsold units are high floor (costly) and also left those facing west so many of them are waiting for Block C launch. Heard that it will be in July, but no sound of it yet...
