Hi guys,

I'm looking to purchase a unit for my own stay. I do like the lower floor with the extra piece of land (which is the 1600 sqft unit). However, I've found out that only block b is current available, but it seems like the gym will be blocking all the view, was wondering will it still be a good buy?

I feel with the gym right in front, the lower floor unit will be block from any light from morning till evening. I'm also a little bit concern on the privacy issue on lower floor.

Another reason i'm looking for a lower ground unit is because block b is facing NKVE, which noise might be a problem for higher floor.

Also, i've heard from the sales there that the power and water tarriff will be converted to residential rate, how true can this be trusted?

I really like the concept of this service apartment. However, these are the few concerns i have at the moment.

Actually, for hijauan Sauajana, I'm seriously concern about the MRT and Highway Noise. I mean base on the feedback online from Singapore, staying near to the MRT tracks does have a lot of noise pollutions coming from the track itself...

Other than that, the area is great. Nice surroundings.

By the way, anybody who bought the 4th floor unit with the extra land area? Just to check, for those units, are they able to build their own roofing or some sort to cover their yard or land area.

Actually the lowest floor unit with the terrace does attract me as I've been to some condo's with that has similar units, it is actually very nice i would say...

No. You can't build any permanent structure. You can place gardens chairs with umbrella or pots.

Oh...you ask before? I dont think the place is big enough to ppace garden chairs n umbrella though....haha...

I've just book a unit, now in the midst of processing the loan. Keeping my fingers cross for the loan to approve.

Do note that the area is served by Putra LRT and not MRT.
Actually, if you are concerned about Lrt noise, you can do what I did, go and sit down underneath the Lrt tracks anywhere in PJ and you will know how noisy it really is. Do note that the tracks passing by Hijauan is a straight, i.e. not a curve where most LRT noise happens.
*
Ya. Should be lrt. My mistake on that.

Well, i assume is not that noisy since its lrt. Will try what you suggested and listen to what the noise level is. Since the unit i book is quite close to the track.

Haha...neighbour can see la, unless nobody's buying the units next to it...

How to do romantic picnic oh?

Anyway, just to check with you guys, what's the interest rate you guys are getting for this project? Also, what is the minimum requirement to get a 90% loan approval?

E.g.: Income > RM5k? with good ccris or clean records?

Actually how much % loan U can get, it depends on your repayment ability & also the bank's quota..
Usually for every project, bank sets a quota for every MOF. Once the 90% quota fills up, bank drops to 85%, then 80% and then so & so on, until they stop taking loan for that project.
So assuming that we don't consider the bank's quota factor, the MOF for 90% will depends on your ability,
Let's illustrate this,

Assuming for a 90% loan, you need to pay 1500 monthly instalment,
and the your income is 5,000 (nett after deduct epf/socso/tax), and u have others financial commitments
Car loan : 1000
C.Card outstanding : 10000 (include all EPP,BT, ETC)
So the banks takes 5000 - 1000(HP) - 500(5% of c.card outstanding) = 3500.
Then the bank divide the balance by 3, which leave its 1,167.
Then 1/3 is not enuf to pay for your the home loan 1,500.
Therefore the bank will not approve the loan at 90%,
Then the bank will try to calculate, for 80% MOF, see the instalment amounts can fit RM 1167 or not.
If can, they approve at 80%, if can't depending it's either the bank propose an even lower MOF or reject the case altogether

The above method for loan approval is the basic fundamentals for calculations. It is not absolute.
*
Ok. Thanks for the explanation. Seems like the banks are taking in quite a low amount of the income as a repayment.

Anyway, hope that my case will get approved.

Low? Not really ryte? I meant 1/3 its quite normal ryte..
Cause apart from paying your new home installment, you'll have other expenses cost as well.
So I think 1/3 is fair isn't it?

Erm, ya. i've just check with a few bankers and they said it differs from bank to bank.

Hey guys, i'm interested in this project, but i'm abit worried why is this project sales is not moving as fast as it is even thought it was launch a year ago. As i've check with the developer, there is still units available, but mostly are those near to the LRT track or highest floor.

As this place is considered one of the most reasonable around that area yet the sales is not as good as expected. Then i'm also worried on the last 2 row in block b which currently still not much takers. Will there be any takers in the future.

I do like the concept and layout of the condo, however the above are the things that i'm worried about.

Hi there, well, i do share some of your concern above. But from my point of view, 1 of the reason this prop does not attracts a lot of attention maybe due to it's location (which is located inside of Saujana), the need for downpayment and it does not have a DIBS.

For those units you mention, i think is due to the fact their facing is not that good, some are highways, LRT tracks or even the club house view which still not many wants. But from what i see from the sales chart, it moving slow, but it's definitely still selling.

Well, i believe you won't be able to find any other props in Klang Valley with this price anymore. I do believe most of the people who have bought the 1300sqft units are most likely for own stay, which i think is good.

Hey Guys, Saw the news that Eco world bought shares into Focal Aim, wonder will it affect Hijauan Saujana since most of it's directors are directly link to Focal Aim.

Thought the developer of Hijauan Saujana is private company of directors of Focal Aim and not Focal Aim group...
*
Ya..not directly under focal aim, but their directors are. So not sure will they be bundling in Esquire Corner (HJ developer) together as a package or not...

Cos seems to me, if they are selling off their main company (which is Focal Aim), they might as well sell Esquire Corner together. Since Esquire Corner only have 2 projects under their name. Unless they want to start off everything again with this company.

Hi Guys, any updates on this prop? It's been quite quiet. The structure is coming up nicely. Is it fully sold out yet? The last i saw 2 months back, there is still some left over units though...

Last I checked back in late October (when I went to collect my referral check that I split with a friend who also bought here with me), I saw that Blocks B and C were sold out. The remaining units were in Block A close to the LRT tracks.
*
Yeah, block A still have problems selling i guess...the last i saw, i remember there is also some higher floor units that was available as well...But it's a lot more expensive though...

Mostly are near to future LRT line. But still ppl looking to buy as nowadays it's hard to get something with this price range. I have some Malay buyer also quite interested after compare with H2o and Urbana .

Urbana n H2O is at a much better location if you ask me, so much close to the ara damansara commercial area...But their price is also a lot higher....

Location of h2o and Urbana is nicer, but price is 7++psf and layout a bit weird. For investment, I think 7++psf a bit high and u need to sell at least 900psf after complete. I'm not saying its impossible but it really need some time to grow until 900psf at the area. Btw I will consider to buy Hijauan Saujana if for own stay because the average price is at 500++ psf only and most important it come with 3 major bedroom and not like h2o's tiny rooms smile.gif
*
Ya..Sauajana seems better for own stay...

Btw, with the new ruling from bnm, dunno will it affect those unsold units at hijauan saujana...I mean since bnm say no more discount, rebates can be given..
