How much psf/unit?

wow reported in aug 2010 to sell at rm1,100psf?
fast forward to present and adjusted to present rates, wonder kind of pricing are they revising too?
even if maintained at rm1,100psf, the cheapest unit would be rm660k based on 550sf?
looks like mutiara, SGR, and ceylon highrise is set to jump in prices again if gamuda launch at this kinda pricing.

if only plaza rakyat is revived ....

plaza rakyat at jalan imbi?

This is Gamuda Land's first highrise project.

It will have a "new concept" SoHo-serviced apartments and retail for KL. The design may include a "sky bridge".

The development is expected to rejuvenate the Bukit Bintang, as there are talks to connect KLIFD in San Peng Pudu to Bukit Bintang then one towards KLCC and another one towards Warisan Merdeka which will cover Plaza Rakyat/Jalan Pudu area.

GDV >RM600 million mixed development.

Wow nice location!
Walking distance to Pudu Bus Station & Plaza Rakyat!
Next to the famous Plaza Rakyat the abbandoned project (now looks like haunted)
Facing Tung Shin & Chinese Maternity Hospital!

Any idea on the commercial components? High end shopping malls to rejuvenate Jalan Pudu?

their pricing always 20 - 30% higher thn their competitors, i am not surprised tht they sell at RM1,300 psf or maybe higher once they launch!

Added on April 1, 2012, 5:26 pmHi, everybody!

Sources mentioned tht A wholesale podium will be build in robertson project, facing jln pudu & tung shin hospital.

The developer will JV with TSI group, who is very experienced in wholesale market will be jv wit them to manage & run tis mall.

The investors & buyers of the robertson project will enjoy:
(1) Capital appreciation in term of value of property
(2) Close distance to wholesale mall, where they can buy in bulk & save
in bulk as well.
(4) Stay Chick - right next to a wholesale mall introducing a new lifestyle
(5) JV by 2 reputable developers with wholesale experience

Pls visit tsi group website for more info: http://www.tsigm.com

TSI past project include Plaza GM in KL - a very famous wholesale mall in KL.

This post has been edited by SDEHCE: Apr 1 2012, 05:26 PM

any news ?

Heard that they might reduce price to RM900 ++ psf due to unforsee economic outlook & oversupply in KL market.
Or they might gv DIBS & sell at RM1,000 psf or higher
Apart from that they change from fully furnish to partly furnish.
They might start selling end of next year

They will JV with TSI to develope the wholesale center fronting pudu main road,
where the service apartment will located at the back of the wholesale center.

If psf 900++ is cheap in this areas.

usually this developer selling eveything 15% more expensive compare with others

This post has been edited by tikaram: Aug 2 2012, 05:59 PM

The whole sale center might attract a lot of crowd & make the place happening like bukit bintang.
This will help to push up the property price as well.

I believe with TSI experienced in Plaza GM KL, they might make this project successful ;-)
& gamuda expertise in landscaping, they might use landscape the building nicely & prevent the residents from looking the abbandonned plaza Rakyat.

Added on August 3, 2012, 12:53 pmThis developer strength is in towhship development, thats why they can sell 15% to 20% more thn other.
But they are not the expert in high rise, thats why they need to sell cheaper 1st, furthermore the location is so so only!
How to sell high?

This post has been edited by SDEHCE: Aug 3 2012, 12:53 PM

BBB mode ?

Wat is BBB mode?

wah... this project. wait until neck also grew 3 extra inches.

Maybe they want to wait for the property price to go up 1st then launch to public at higher price ler! Becoz market is very soft now!
since their location is very prime & there is a wholesale market infront.

I passed by the area yesterday and noticed there's a sales gallery beside swiss garden hotel. It's at the former ah yat abalone restaurant. has anyone been there?

I walked by last weekend. Seem like they are not open during weekend.
Tot to went in to understand more about the project, i.e concept, their shopping mall concept & pricing as well.

Did of the taiko went in there before? anything special there? Pls advise!

Launching nearing CNY 2013

would they still be sticking to <rm1kpsf pricing or increase?

TTDI burst the RM1k psf level liao

Heard that they are selling at least RM1,100 to RM1,300 psf, since TTDI already burst RM1,000 psf.
Wondering what type commercial components tht the robertson offer, shopping mall, neighbourhood mall or etc.

Should pay a visit to their sales office one of these day, to find out more.
If high end shopping mall, thn RM1,300psf is still acceptable.
If cheap skate of shopping mall, thn i rather buy else where.

It was supposed to be smtg like a wholesale mall like Kenanga... Lol

How big is the land n how many units?

550sf-880sf ? 400 units ?

QUOTE(kEMUNING @ Dec 22 2012, 11:44 PM)

550sf-880sf ? 400 units ?

I don think that tiny piece of land can built a big mall there.
Is it going to be same size like Kenanga Mall?
Who are the targeted anchor tenants?
Any supermarket there?

i dont think that they have any experience in operating a wholesale Mall. Club house maybe la!
550 to 880 sf most probably the wholesalers will buy & convert it to their stores & hostel for their workers
similar to Plaza GM, Chow Kit.


[COLOR=red][SIZE=14]Let's do a survey here:

Would anyone of you prefer to stay on top/ next to a wholesale mall?

Is it really that "chic" to stay next to wholesale mall?

everybody need to start somewhere lah.
and it is not as if gamuda have zero experience in development and a small time player.

remember SPS? their first ever highrise setia sky residences? since then they have moved rapidly through setiawalk, eco-city, etc. they also started their setia city mall.

wct also have their aeon bukit tinggi and paradigm.

Kochin u are right... have to start somewhere.
Hope their 1st mall will be successful.
Do you have any insider news on the anchor tenants?
Faster, help us to dig more info

Charlie, the project is fronting Tung Shin Hospital & right next to the abbandoned plaza rakyat.
if i am not wrong, it was a honda showroom.

Is it launch already? Where is the sales office?

I look at their website and a lot of things are not finalized yet. Based on that i dont think they are ready for launching yet. But you can register at their website.

not launch yet ..... no hurry ........ prepare your check list .

Hopefully more ticks than crosses .........

we will see.

Cheers

pls keep the information for this project up to date....thanks..

Not only need to prepare check list but need to prepare check book aslo. If check book kosong how to buy? Ha ha

any updates on this project? I am keen. How much psf?

Two blocks both over 40 storeys. One block has KL tower n KLCC view n facing tung shin hospital. The second block face warisan merdeka future tallest building in Malaysia. Fully furnished. Wholesale mall will be in front of first block n facing Jalan pudu n is a separate block from the robertson.

Indicative Rm 1300 psf. Size 500+ sq ft 1 room. 600+ sq ft 1 room with balcony. 800 sq ft 2 rooms corner unit.

Is price comparable to surrounding building? How much Market value now of Swiss garden residence?

thx for the info, will keep an eye on the project =)

I dont understand why so many of you are excited about this project because of the proposed wholesale market. The Kenanga wholesale market did not at all uplift the standards of the only condo in the San Peng Pudu area. In fact, if we look at Bangkok, the Pratunam wholesale market attracts huge crowds everyday but the cost of the condos in that area is low grade, as compared with those in neighbouring high end retail areas like Rajprasong, siam and sukhumvit. even if you look at the most high end condo in pratunam, the platinum which has a wholesale market in the lower floors, the place looks just like a very crowded sg wang plaza. it's stuffy and congested. not to say it's not easy to rent out units in the Platinum. In fact, it is wildly popular but the rent also reflects the standard of the place. It's just a market.

Added on January 4, 2013, 7:33 amand secondly, I am not interested in this project because of Gamuda. This company is one of the benefactors from the downfall of the Perak PR govt in 2009. http://www.financetwitter.com/2009/02/pera...-all-about.html

whether you believe it or not, a lot of the educated public are aware about the shit that went on behind the power seize and how this affected the integrity of our judiciary and democracy. this indirectly has sent many prospective investors to neighbouring thailand and the philippines, leaving us with low grade unwanted investors like RAPID and LYNAS. for the love of this country, just think about where you put your money. i am sure, partisan or not, support opposition or not, hundreds if not thousands of people think like me and will avoid this project where we can put our money in other more ethical developers.

This post has been edited by sinleong: Jan 4 2013, 07:41 AM

People are interested in this project is because of its LOCATION of seemingly close to Bukit Bintang. FYI, this project has a long list of registrants.

And also the developer has a reputation in terms of quality and price appreciation by looking at their sold out townships. (my god horizon hills in johor is soo crazy now)

Another thing is this project is will receive the spillover effect from the MRT - also by Gamuda for the tunnel part. The price in BB vicinity will change after MRT begins.

All other factors are out of topic... lol

Not really out of topic.
Some of us do consider the ethics and moral aspects of a transactions. Some do their best to avoid dealing with crooks and corrupted parties.
Even accountants should not just look at the financial numbers alone.

looking around this area, i must say the residential to beat would be the awesome SGR.
SGR facade is very outstanding compared to the others.
prices are approx RM1,000psf.

but robertson's rendering looks sleek and stylo too with metal clads.

Boss, if SGR is RM1000 psf then is Robertson RM1300 psf fair and doable?

Any one knows who far is this developed to the proposed Merdeka MRT? Is it walkable? It will be only two stop away by MRT to the Tun Razak Exchange. Looking forward this project will benefit from the nearby redevelopment of the pudu jail.

How do the taikos here compare this project with Manhattan located at Raja Chulan. I understand this project is selling at RM1,500 psf.

i would rank gamuda ahead of pjd in terms of reputation, as a developer or as a contractor.
but recent pjd's products such as sgr, and you series (city and one) have been quite impressive in terms of their design.

for gamuda, do not really recall their highrise development. anybody mind sharing their track record for highrises?

as i'd said, SGR remains the product to beat.
if upon completion, robertson fails to impressive, SGR would automatically escalate to prices above robertson.
but in theory, that should not happen lah.


for manhattan, personally think the location trumps these two. reputation wise, UE is also quite reputable. the showhouse should give a very good indication of things to expect. and prices are still considered friendly looking at absolute amount comparing with st mary.

so conclusion, if got money, anyay also can buy. if no $$ like myself, anyway also cannot lor.

Manhattan being located in raja chulan can be considered as in the KL Golden triangle. Does this project qualify to be located within the KL Golden triangle as well?

that's the funny thing.
i asked someone the boundaries of golden triangle and the someone told me that the boundaries changes over time.
it depends on whether there's any shift of the CG (centre of gravity).
when i enquired, the someone told me currently it's along JSI to J.ampang to Jln imbi.
but the person also told me that the triangle would be enlarge when TRX is developed as well.

so if plaza rakyat is revived and pudu jail proves to be a hit, i do not see why not this can't be included in the triangle or square or circle then. kekeke.

PS: the someone is actually someone quite reputable in a very establish valuation firm. kekeke.

I was told Plaza Rakyat will be revived by a GLC...how true?

And Pudu Jail will be redevelop into a transportation hub and Puduraya will relocate there...

I was told Plaza Rakyat will be revived by a GLC...how true?
someone intended to but does not have the will to carry through. think lacking both political and financial muscle to pull it through



And Pudu Jail will be redevelop into a transportation hub and Puduraya will relocate there...
pudu jail already got rendering from accetera taikor mah. does not look like a transporation hub to me.

I thought Pudu jail will be developed in to the Bukit Bintang City Centre by UDA. Has anyone seen the master plan for BBCC?

The renderings are not final. In fact, there are many more renderings.

If MRCB won, Pudu Jail will be a transportation hub as they proposed "BUKIT BINTANG SENTRAL" (really wan). But the tussle continues as UDA does not know how to fulfill MOF's latest requirement which is kinda weird.

Plaza Rakyat will be revived pending smartness (if there is any) of the new KL Mayor. A few big developers are interested to takeover, but does Tan Sri Thiing willing to give up?

SGR location not so prime. Facade is nice though.

Rumours has it that Bukit Bintang Sentral will be the one!

Rumours also has it that Plaza Rakayat will be taken over by a GLC with enough financial n political power!

Pudu Jail is gone.

have they launch yet?

http://www.therobertson.com.my/eng/design.html

wow. looking very sleek.
would be interesting to note that it contrast with the beautiful swiss garden residence greatly.

When launching ar? Wait until neck long n forgotten about this project alredi...

this one built on ex-pudu jail site? err.....

This post has been edited by Selectt: Apr 23 2013, 11:04 PM

the big question is how much per sf?
are there gonna maintain the previous target or increase?
1.1k? 1.3k? 1.5k? higher? or super early birdie below RM1k?

No... former honda showroom on jalan pudu... the site is hoarded.

Price should be very high. Can see it from the many luxury facilities.

Maintenance also killing expensive.

Casa residency at that area is now asking for 1k to 1.3k psf

really?
SGR only asking from 950-1150psf

Can anyone send me @ pm detail about this property! Thanks!

rumours has it that it is selling at RM 1200 and launching soon.
anyone care to confirm.

PM me too if any agents in this thread promoting...kthnx

gamuda have a new office nearby this site as a showcase of all their product.
seems like getting ready to launch liao.


http://www.theedgemalaysia.com/property/23...y-dwellers.html
from RM1,200psf? that's old news in Feb 2013.

pools at Level 6 and Level 42? wow.

This post has been edited by kochin: May 27 2013, 05:24 PM

are you sure?

i though they will complete some group works before launching?

i think maybe at least mid 2014 and price should be lower than 1200 psf.

So long ? it looks good

i also don;t know good or not good.

but that was according to the reply at Kota Kemuning shoreholder AGM meeting feedback session. If not mistaken

u really gamuda die hard fansi
