ya, totally agreed! If you are flipper or do not have holding power, I do not see you can benefit from it at this moment! just like hartamas, full of construction from time to time, today u got the klcc view, it gone within few months also, unless you buy the last project in the area. but for sure it is much expensive! investment is nothing promised, what ever the sales person said without putting inside the S&P is talk only.
if u have holding power for 3 years++, then this is a good investment. and the very good point for elements is freehold! elements also come with very nice facilities which some project doesn't have (when all is ready)! |

RM1350 just for front grill to me is day light robbery. Any cheaper contractor to intro here? Many years ago, full grill for whole double storey house - 1 front wooden door, front glass door, back gate, upstairs glass door, plus 12 windows cost just RM2,000 (total 4 doors and 12 windows). |

If you just install one grille, no meat eat... so, as well they charge you expensive. I encourage you can gather more people do together, and bring down the price.Many years ago, full grill for whole double storey house - 1 front wooden door, front glass door, back gate, upstairs glass door, plus 12 windows cost just RM2,000 (total 4 doors and 12 windows). I do not like grille door, but I plan to install a semi-glossy glass door. macam ni...  |

QUOTE(iancyteo @ Aug 27 2014, 09:28 AM) From what I can see the development now and future. You have a good point here. I have had concern about the Arte+ development as my unit is also facing KLCC which I will lose now. But even if not for the Arte, something else will come up eventually and block the view. Hopefully at the end, good location will win over good view.On going project: 1.) M-City 2.) Arte+ Coming project: 1.) Risda re-development 2.) Ampang City Plaza re-development 3.) Elements 2 Rumor: 1.) MRT circle line (station said to be at Ampang Point) 2.) Pavillion 2 at Flamingo Hotel and Resort Potential project: 1.) The land infront of Arte+ So, I foresee this area gonna be very busy within the next 10 years. What you think if you want to stay in an area full of construction? or buying a sub-sale in this area? To me, not now... but after everything completed, that could be a totally different story. (There are more on-going and coming projects along Jalan Ampang, all are selling much expensive PSF price compare to Elements.) What I like most about Elements are: 1.) Freehold 2.) Residential title 3.) It is closed to but next to the heavy noisy dusty Jalan Ampang, MRR2 and AKLEH. |

Dear Element Owners,
Just a few things to watch out for. 1) Main Door - First Lock/Twist, doesn't really lock the door 2) Paint Job - Around doors, switches very poorly done 3) Cupboard - Drawers not evenly spaced out 4) Air Cond - Leaking 5) Door - One side of the frame could go missing 6) Floor - Marble Floor discolored 7) Ceiling - Holes 8) Power Points - No Power for some Overall, since this is my first new place, nothing much to compare it to, I'm fine with it. Scale of 1 to 10 i'll give it a 7. As long as they fix the defects.

Yes, the management will set a guideline for the grill door, however I do not have this guideline. Can someone get it from management office and share?I will share the guidelines and application forms here. Feel free to use it. You need to submit this form 7 days in advance to the management office. Also, RM1000 deposit (if major, RM3000) to the management office. Cheers  Attached File(s)

But you can only put inside, not outside.Anyway, you need to submit your reno plan to the management office for approval before you can start reno. So, they have the right to reject your plan if they think it will violate the "House rules". |

According to the "house rules", these are not allowed.But I encourage whoever interested to do the same, we can use the same contractor and nego the price. So, I hope we can share the information here.  |
