U means from now on they don't accept anymore booking?

Yes confirmed with the SA.
Official launch 25-26th oct, price increase 5% 1st then 10%

They put all remaining units on hold now until the official launch. So no sales from now till 25 Oct. :-)

Seems TTDI Alam Impian property is in great demand in subsales market, which is within the expectation. Ppl are more comfortale with Fenced and Guarded property for safety reason.

Ppl who willing to pay RM600K to RM1mil prop will not torelates on the safety issues especially nowaday crime rate is increasing.

yes, i tried it many times, the forum system, diable the weblink that has longer than certain length.
The result showing...

around 51% bumi purchasers
45% chinese, and the rest lain-lain kaum.

You are right in the sense that those property below RM1mil has wider market than those > RM1mil, based on the income pyramid analysis.

But for the township development, we also need to study the overall demand and supply analysis b4 putting their money in.
Bro UFO-ET has done a good analysis that INP AI's Precient 1,2, 3 will have total units of 1937 units of link houses, plus TTDI AI side's SPIRA/VIOLA/Shefira/Zecrona/ Aquina's 600 link houses, so add up together it will have more than 2600 of link houses in the market from now on.

Citrina is the only Semi D available in the market which is around 56 units, asuming half buying for own stay, so there will be only 26 units available in the subsales in the market after 2 years, compared to 2000++ of link houses in AI. So i think Citrina is not a bad bet after all, just need to wait for any 26 upgraders from the 2000+ link houses owners in AI.

I think I&P Tinta will not create any threats to Citrina because:-

a) Citrina is full F&G. Security, ppl who upgrade from link house nearby to Semi D, expecting better features. With Million ringgit price tag ppl expect good security, i.e. Perimeter fencing with CCTV, 24 hours security.
b) Low density, only 56 units.
c) By the time Citrina delivered in 2 years time, Tinta will be like 6 years old, compared to brand new Citrina.
d) Tinta is like 99% Bumi residences, compared to TTDI side the demographic is quite balance, like 50%:50% between Bumi and non bumi. It is good for kids to grow up with multiracial neighnourhood. Nobody wants their kids raised up without knowing others' culture, it doesnt fit into the society.
e) Layout of Citrina is very practical, 4 sides open, Zero Lot, double volume living room. U see Tinta's layout u will vomit blood.
f) Citrina BU 3700sqft is a good size. For Tinta's 3100sqft, even smaller than Pentas Superlink series..

A lot more to study, cant just compare based on size or psf, we are not buying sugar or meat or any commodities.

No problem we discuss and improve our knowledge.
If u have read my earlier post, i describe traditional link house as economy class, and semi Dee as business class. For Superlink we describe it as Premium Economy class. In the Premium Economy class, u may have more leg rooms, but then u still eat economy class cuisine and sharing the same toilets with 200++ other passengers.

It is still a lot of different in between Superlink and Semi D, the set up, environment, density, more space for gardening & exercising, for kids/ pets to play around, more natural lights to your house, social Status, 3 cars park side by side, stricter security as Security Guard remember u and can able to address you and your family's name (due to lower density) and etc. If u really study the Citrina layouts u know what i meant.

Share a real case with you, when i booked Citrina, the same day i have seen 2 couples walked in to the TTDI showroom, both couples seems know each others, they canceled their Aquina (super link) purchase, and wanna booked Citrina. Both couples already signed the S&P for Aquina and they dont mind to pay the 1% penalty on the SPA and upgrade to Citrina. So after 2 years i am looking for this kind of upgraders.

Back to the airline example, with the existence of Premium Economy Class, the airlines still have demand for Buisness class and First Class.

By the way i am not aiming for RM2.0mil, after 2 years. I am happy if i can sell at RM1.75mil, as my entry price is much lower.

Those property above RM1 mil is not difficult to sell as what u think, if the products is right and value for money. My family sold 4 prop 2 months ago in the same month, all in the range of RM1.4-1.5mil. They are Ascarina, Cyrtandra, Tristania in Setia Alam, other part of Shah Alam.

I did not lower down my target price, it was set b4 i pick my units in Citrina. The traget price need to be realistic, your RM2mil is not realistic if were to flip in 2014.

I do not need to have good networks when selling, that is my property agents job for paying them 2%. I am lucky in Setia Alam, having dealing with good networking property negotiators there.

I rather spend time to build better networking with developers for able to select my choice units b4 public opening, as what i did for Citrina.

i was told the developer has changed the high end apartment to low rise town house. To keep the density low in this precient.

Not many ppl choosing the row backing the commercial is that the commercial construction may starts after the VP of Citrina, so noise and dust will be a major concern. If the commerial shoplots that back to back with Citrina happened to be restaurant and kopitiam, it will have another issues also, like rats, smokes and smell from the all day cooking and etc.

I chose the cheapest row with good house number, facing NW. As the lot is 45' x 85', and the build up foot print is around 35" x 70". The main open area is at the side(70'), not the front (35'). Even my unit is facing NW, only the MBR and carpouch kena the evening sun. The widest open area with 85" are facing South, so it will be cooling for Living rooms/ Dining room (both facing side) that facing the South. The best part is, price is RM100-150K cheaper than other facing units.

I was the 1st to choose in the Saturday morning.
The couples that i mentioned upgraded from Aquina to Citrina, they were the 3rd and 4th to book. They canceled their Aquina paying 1% penalty fees. B4 i left at noon, 8 units were booked, there is one Datuk Bumi booked 2 units, facing and backing the green parks.

The NW facing row is actually good for investors, becoz lower entry price. I guess most investors have same mindset. The own stayers usually do not mind to pay higher price to face green, or corner units.

Which unit u shortlist? maybe i can give u my comments.

The official launching date is 20 Oct.
I can pm you the contact, in case any dropouts in between today till 20 Oct, you can put in your cheque if u find the unit is good. Because on 20 Oct, price will be increased 5-10%.

According to snp t&c any cancelation subject to 1% penalty, but that couple might be able to negotiate down to only pay RM500 penalty and waive the 1%.
Yes u r right, Zicrona is decent. U made the right choice.
What I m trying to share with some forumer abt what i hv seen in the showroom, some are skeptical if there will be any upgraders after 2 years, my point is there are already got potential upgraders since Citrina was launched from Day 1, including u. 2500 superlink, vs 56 units of Semi D, i would say good chance.

investor could be alos turned into own stay if the execution is good, and quality is good.

It is normal to hv higher price so that the developer has room to increase their price when certain % of the units sold, without the needs to seek approval on the price increase. But the price need to be realistic also or else KPKT will not approve.

Citrina's min price on the Kpkt website is RM2mil.
And 1st batch purchases got it for RM1.45mil.

Visited the showroom today, about 20 over visitors mostly are families with old parents and kids, seems like buying for own stay. But the developer has nothing to sell until 20th Oct.

Yes, price will be increased by 5% then 10%.
i saw 30 stickers on board, meaning left 26 units for official launching.

not much freebies. You get free S&P stamp duty and MOT, solar heaters. You need to pay the loan legal fees, and etc.

Now it is at preview stage, meaning the developer has not obtained the AP (Advertising Permit), without AP, they cannot officially sell the units, they can only ask their panel lawyer accept the deposits on their behalf, during the preview, the lawyer issue u the offer to purchase (not booking form), and they hold your deposits, will only bank in the cheque when AP is obtained.
During the preview, the invited those
i) potential customers that registered their interest with them for Citrina.
ii) priority banking customers, i know they allocated 1 day for HSBC Premier Banking customer, 1 day for CIMB Preferred banking and also 1 day for Maybank's Private banking customers.

I falled under the 1st group. I registered my interest with their Sales Office 2 months ago, after visiting I&P AI, and did not get any attentions from I&P Sales staffs (the staffs not interested to sell). I just registered for fun at TTDI because that time the indicative price was RM1.7mil up, and the BU only 3400sqft with the conventional 3 sides open + 1 wall fully shared with neighbour.

Then when i received the preview invitation by email, i noticed that the layout has been improved tremendously, to 4 sides opened (with only kitchen sharing wall with neighbour), BU increased to about 3700sqft, extra 300sqft, living room changed to double volume, the lot size was 40x80, but now changed to 45x85' (very generous lot size for SMD), and most importantly price reduced to RM1.45mil, so it immediately created my interest.
