At this kind of prices, you think they can at least do a better name and logo. And will the nearby Binary school attract those African students to this apartment?

Better go for Hijauan Saujana,much a better buy than this....lol

Juz curious only as price is quite steep.. hmm

My goodness.

RM 600-700 psf, can this location really can make it with its price tag???

herm.. exceeded my forecast 500psft..
1.8k rental price for single bedder is really untested in puchong..

forecast skypod rental ~ rm2.8psft
forecast sw rental ~ rm1.6 to 1.8psft
Bayu puteri rm1.4psft
Zest rm1.33psft
Aseana Puteri rm1.23psft

highest in the region is savannah bj ~rm2.2psft fully furnish..

Is it this being constructed behind Binary college?
Cause I dont see any other construction close to Setia Walk...

Omg. LDP can no longer sustain the heavy traffic.

Bro, I forecast it from RM 500-550 psf, purposely put it higher since this is branded developer ...

But, rental wise, I couldn't see the location can make it ... thought it located one of the best commercialize area in Puchong center, but RM 2.8 psf rental forecast is much much higher than Bukit Jalil and Sri Petaling ...

IMHO, Puchong is great homes for appreciation but not rental value, for rental value, Subang Jaya and Sunway is still ahead of Puchong area ... Students population played a great part to dominate the rental game for investors ... All branded somemore, Taylor's, Sunway, Monash, Metro and Inti .. and co ...

Ex.
Sunway Suriamas, which was sold btw RM 170-250k by HR United before 2005 .... VPed at July/August 2008, rental enters at RM 1,200 onwards and subsales started at RM 220k, progressively hitted RM 1,800 and RM 280k by 12 months later. Quality so-so, but best thing HR United did was the floor plan of 4 rooms and all 2 x 2 porcelain tiles ...

Now, it was RM 400k++ and rental fetch from RM 1.8k onwards ( local ), ave RM 2 to RM 2.3k, foreigners like China/Korean easily RM 2.3 to RM 2.6k and Pak Hitam easily above RM 2.5k

Sunway Ridzuan, one of the hottest place for Pak Hitam, China Dolls, mix people and of course, some families who opt for good location of itself ... was completed since more than 10 years ago ( I think 13 years ), it was the only apartment fetch very good rental, but sub sales prices lower than market bank value. Prolly thanks to their worst management, who runaway with the monthly maintenance fee ( pool never maintain, OMFG and 3/4 lifts were out of service ) and possibly facing issue of no strata issue to date.
Hence, say, a RM 130-150k studio, can fetch a rental of minimum RM 1.3k and above ... My fren rent his studio to an Iranian for RM 1.65k

Skypod? Perhaps a good price of it's location for own stay, but rental, hmm, in Puchong area, really needs to take longer time to match the RM 2.8 psf rental value ...

My honest 1 cent value ...

ya. behind Binary college.

Speechless. Puchong memang BOLEH!!!

640 units only

Skypod is about 500 / ft , went to sales gallery yesterday . The price list is out , any idea or comment on this price ? Worth to invest or own stay ?

Cheaper than trigon!

Like our bros here mentioned, this place might be good for own stay but definitely not for rental. For a reason, Puchong still does not able to reach the rental value with return matching Sunway or BJ. For this price, I think Setia Walk could be a better bet than this one but despite selling $550/sqft, Setia Walk is having tough times to sell remaining of their units so I can see that the response for this one will be limited.

I passby the project side almost everyday, and found that the land is a bit lower than the ldp, not sure the reason. Just know that the place is heavily jammed all the way out to ldp and how the residence going to tolerate with this kind of traffic.

If u notice bldg using air well for kitchen. Like low cost flats ventilation. Ugly.

Heard that area has very unpleasant 'smell'....
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2142045?hl=puchong%20smell

I winded down my car window when i drove pass that area about few months back and the smell is really teruk...not sure how's the situation now.. can't imagine living in a high rise with such shitty-smell, have to shut the balcony sliding door and all windows at all times...gosshh...

How many type ?
A B C D E F ? what the sizes? price 500psf ? 600psf ?

1248ft , 3 bed , 3 bath , 3 carparks
1033ft, 3 bed , 2 bath, 2 Carparks
881ft, 2 bath, 2 bath, ? carpark
634ft, 1 bath, 1 bath, ? Carpark

A bit lower than LDP, which part are you referring to ? If you are referring to the actual site currently under construction, that's the LG parking lot lar. Hehe. The original land is not that low, seems IOI shaved off a big chunk of the soil there.

Added on May 14, 2012, 9:12 amNo smell for the last few months.

But that does not mean it is fixed. If it survived the next Nov/Dec raining season, then it's considered fixed.

Hmm...it's like a betting to purchase at such price tag..

Btw, that area doesn't seems prestigious at all...looks like a cowboy town with all kind of nations around(foreign workers)..

Binary college students lar is not the same as IMU college students. If the rental too expensive, they better rent the Sutramas apartment.

Setiawalk trigon got problem moving their units, so I don't think it will be an easy sales for this skypod. But we need not worry for IOI, if they can't sell so fast, they will keep. Then inflation catches up, the price will look more reasonable then.

omg. seems overpriced for this pjt ???

I know they dug deeper for the basement but even it seems that the land is even lower than LDP and this was agreed by the Business Park staffs there. I might got it wrong but let's see it later.

Any intention to going in for this one?

would like to see who going to buy for 600 per sq feet.
own stay. so small.

I thought post #25 said it's around 500 psf ?

---

Added on May 14, 2012, 10:13 amNot going for this one. Not very optimistic about the rental play in this area. Not that optimistic with Trigon either.

Let's fight to block the pigeons holes from coming to Puchong. LOL.

This post has been edited by puchongite: May 14 2012, 10:13 AM

if to compare trigon n skypod, i rather buy Trigon. Setia Walk so happening now !

You must be joking. Setia Walkis so happening ***NOW*** ?

Trigon rooms are like closets. Isnt it that the 1700 sqft show units going for 1.1m in the middle floors? It doesnt look and feel like a 1700Sqft space at all.

The show units was put together in a mismatch of furniture, maybe from the previous show units. It didnt portray any luxury feeling at all imho. Ok i understand that the ID doesnt comes with the place but it either gives you a good or bad impression on the whole project. This is probably one of the worse show units I have come across. I also noticed they are still giving those old standard wall switches for this price range. Amazing if they can sell these.

This is definitely not a place for own stay and if for investment, who are you going to rent it to for 5k a month just to pay your installments?

At this price you can get a nice landed property in Puchong

Another pigeon hole coming up end of this year "IOI Vivocity".

Looks like we have to accept the facts that Puchong no longer has land for landed or huge condo but instead pigeon hole which we are trying to fight

1248sf 430/sf only, really ? RM537k only ... good buy...

RM600-700psf!!! omg... i passed by last week...was wondering what's the project going on there..icic... very near to main road access... is this the one behind Binary?

well i guess i shld say " in the near future " huh ??

Anyway comparison with Trigon, it's somewhat academic now since we don't know if the skypod pricing now is firmed. If it is like some of the poster mentioned 430 psf for 12xx sf, I would say it will throw Trigon out of competition immediately.

This project has been put on hold since
mid 2011. The ground work is in progress.
Ioi wants to wait n see....

Just received sms from IOI as follows:

Puchong jaya Skypod Residences. 1/2/3 bedrooms, opening on 19 - 20/5, 9pm onwards. RM383k up. DIBS. Easy payment. 5% downpayment.

Judging from smallest size, the price started from RM605/psft.

Wahhhhh, bro. What's the size for smallest unit?
This is new high....

Smaller size , higher RM/ft

634 sqft.
Yes it's high definitely.

So happening..... in front of Setia Walk.......the traffic

Did you try to keep the competition away or what, it's 9am onwards lar. Just received the SMS too. LOL.

Smallest size always have higher pricing. But RM 605 / per sq ft is deem very high side.

DIBS is good, which should include into the price. But any indicative of the discount??

I am eagerly to see the response this 19 and 20 May. To judge how market response to this. Guess this is not monkey game since downpayment is 6%... not low ... Buyers must be a serious buyers ...

commercial or residential title?

commercial

IOI Prop:Puchong Jaya,SkyPod Residences.1/2/3bedrms,Open 19&20/5/12,1st Come 1st Served.9am onwards.RM 383k up.DIBS.Easy Payment.5% downpayment.LRT.03-80648899

branded developer ma

Dun tell ppl mar, want lesser competition to grab the units

mind to ask why 6% downpayment? is it come with 4% discount or something like that?

My sms says 5% downpayment

5% dp, then what about the other 5%? Is it discounted?

Just edited my post, it is 5% downpayment which means 5% discount.

So any takers here?

Looking at RM20k dp and above... wow.
Interested but dont have the money.

Anyone can confirm it is 5% discount ?

What are you guys say if 5% discount and DIBS?

Go go go ?

bro...u must be joking.... sap sap sui 30k for u.... bonus can kao tim liao.
long time no see u here... very busy nowadays?

No no no?

A definitely no go for this...

is skypod same level with trigon ?? which one better ?

Why is it called skypod? Don't see any pods.

Actually developers can give any name to their projects without much valid reason. But anyway in this case it's called POD because of the design of each tower, a somewhat elongated, two-valved seed vessel, as that of the pea or bean.

Any of you plan to flood ioi sales office to join the crowd this weekend?

Any chance of getting more detail psf pricing info based on built up ? As it is if it is 600 psf and more, it's out of my consideration.

for me, anything above 450psft is out from my consideration... no subsale price to support 600psft in puchong.. it is already buying at ceiling price..

to me, if i buy at 600psft, i m just "helping" to push up prices for other development as they are taking reference on what i bought, but i have no reference to push my own purchase to higher level..

better buy others at 400psft bcos skypod is selling at 600psft, more room for 400psft to go up

So we need to go and know more this weekend. Even IOI sales staffs unable to reveal more but definitely you need to fork out RM600/sqft for this one.

I am fully on your side on this. But to say it is totally no reference.... maybe, maybe there is some basis.

If we look at Trigon and One City @USJ 25, those pigeon holes are priced higher on psf.

this Sat Crowd

Booking fee RM10K by Cheque or Credit Card
After Sign the SPA pay the balance 5%, remaining 5 % can pay via 6 month installment plan...

881sf 2 room 2 car park very very good buy. price only from 430K(488psf) VS (605psf)384K 634sf 1 room 1 car park..

Herm.. IMHO, I am taking subsale price as "market price" as I believe (I believe la) this is the price that general public willing pay for..
For new launches, as we know buyers are lure into it due to attractive packages. But when comes to subsale, is there genuine demand for it? we cant really know..

So now, after gathering all the input from the forum, is this the pricing ?

1248ft , 3 bed , 3 bath , 3 carparks from 430 psf
1033ft, 3 bed , 2 bath, 2 Carparks from 470 psf
881ft, 2 bath, 2 bath, 2 carpark from 488 psf
634ft, 1 bath, 1 bath, 1 Carpark from 634 psf

that's a big jump $ psf wise on both smaller units..... I'll pick 881 anytime

No way. The price does not make sence at all. 881sf and 634sf wud be almost same price??

Where you get this price from? Sales office?

1248ft , 3 bed , 3 bath , 3 carparks from 430 psf
1033ft, 3 bed , 2 bath, 2 Carparks from 470 psf
881ft, 2 bath, 2 bath, 2 carpark from 488 psf
634ft, 1 bath, 1 bath, 1 Carpark from 634 psf

Seriously?? 430 psf?? Sounds too good to be true for a IOI Prop.

if based on the pricing, 881 sqft and 1033 sqft quite a good buy....

But is that the final pricing? Seem like too good to be true...

This post has been edited by seanooi880327: May 15 2012, 11:55 AM

I agree with you, I also don't believe in the pricing. I am just doing the summary based on the posts in this forum. I don't know how these posters got the information.

For those who don't believe 1248ft start from rm 430/ft. Do visit sales office . hehe

VIP pricing or "Open for public" pricing?
As far as I know, there is a private preview for internal before releasing to the public

I got this over the phone .

Oic.. interesting pricing... thanks for the info...
bigger units looks good as developer dont build them anymore..

Biggest unit with 3 Car parks, this one is a bargain buy!
But I dun belif at all, will drop by to check.

If the pricing info is correct, for once, the biggies sell faster than the smallies.

forumers so good at analyze, no need crack my head

avg 430-470 psf 1st day sure sapu habis....

881sf 92 unit only
1033 70+ unit only

Few biji at the lower floor I guess... . The rest I don't think below rm500 per sf.
