Hi guys, a bit off-topic but related to this apartment. I'm a bachelor living @ Subang Jaya (parent's house) and working @ Damansara Perdana. Even though distance is not far but due to car travel cost, traffic and working sometimes to late night, I feel its time to rent somewhere near my workplace. Flora Damansara catches my eye as I saw adverts owners renting it out for RM500/month, is it fair price if I move in?

Appreciate feedback from fellow FD owners here. Also, wishing you all the best on upcoming AGM, hope they will improve the many issues to be resolved for sake of prosperity.

RM500/month for the whole unit? Which block/floor?
Go to Mudah.com to get the current rental rate.

Mine, middle room RM400 & small room RM300 inclusive of electric, water & Unifi (fully furnished)

Whole unit, RM500. Here's what I found from mudah.my earlier. RM250 is not whole unit, I believe. Info varies.
http://www.mudah.my/li?fs=1&ca=9_s&q=flora...&se=&frn=&mre=1
Do help explain what is the actual rate for whole unit, which is what  target to rent in.
*
RM500 is the cheapest of Block A and B. Block D is around RM700, Block E around RM800 and block F & H around RM850.

This JMC will hold the post for 3 terms.
The first JMC meeting will be held after COB approve the new JMC
The meeting will be about the tasks need to be carry out. This meeting will be open to all tenant/owner. smile.gif
The Minutes of the EGM will be post ASAP (2-4 weeks)

I was elected. So will try my very best to update about the progress.

Been there on that day, get a "no vote" tag from them due to my unit haven't change to my name,
I bought this unit for a year, but the name still haven't updated, I asked management staffs, they told me have to ask from the developer.  cry.gif
*
Sorry to hear that. Your lawyer should have done that. After your lawyer submitted the necessary documents to the developer, Saujana Triangle Sdn Bhdt, they will issue a letter informing the Flora Management of the new ownership of the unit. Updating of the ownership will be done in 24hrs (this is what happen to mine)

To my understanding, the next JMC meeting is open to all registered owner only.

You should check with the developer for sure. I bought my unit around Dec 2012. Now management side already updated my unit with my name. Received the invitation letter for past JMC meeting as well. Too bad can't make it due to outstation.

Hi Bali Ais,

We (JMC) will try to have our meeting during this school holidays (25th May to 6th Jun). I suggested the meeting to be held on Saturday morning so we can meetup with the management staffs and contractors. All owner are welcome but are not allow to speak unless permitted by the JMC. But all are welcome to voice your problems or suggestions in this forum. I will bring them up in the meeting.

This is the link to download the House Rules. Please read and give your comment to improve it. Flora Damansara House Rules

Not you only bro. i bought few units at there and none still my name at the management, keep saying developer no update them.

Developer is MK land so i don't find strange.
*
It happened to me too. I call Saujana Triangle SB and talked to the person in charge. The procedure is very simple and a letter of instruction was issued to my lawyer My lawyer in the beginning of the transaction.It only take less than a week for Saujana to issue a letter of confirmation of transaction after received all the documents needed and a day for Flora management to update it.

Hope you get it done quickly and can participate in making Flora a better place to stay and making more $$$ for you smile.gif

Been push lawyer to do it for me, but lawyer also called up to developer and management,
end up until today, is still under previous owner name. management said will check for me and drags days.

yes, potential condo, but between developer and management is difficulty communicate.  doh.gif
*
Don't always believe the lawyer. cool2.gif

Try call the developer, Saujana Triangle Sdn Bhd. around 10:15am, ask for Ms Azreen or who ever in-charge of Flora Damansara. Get the latest progress of the transaction from her. Usually the lawyer didn't get the Clearance Letter from the management which is needed by the developer.

These are the documents require by the developer;

1. IC PURCHASER
2. DATASHEET PURCHASER
3. STAMPED COPY SALE & PURCHASE AGREEMENT
4. STAMPED COPY DEED OF ASSIGNMENT ( BY WAY OF TRANSFER)
5. STAMPED COPY DEED OF RECEIPT & REASSIGNMENT
6. PREVIOUS LETTER UNDERTAKING BETWEEN OWNER & OLD FINANCIER
7. CLEARANCE LETTER FROM JMB/Management

You can do this online like what i did. Make all the outstanding payment to the management, email them the transaction/bank-slip and request for the Clearance Letter to be email to you and cc to Azreen. Call them to check their email about the payment, tell them Mr. Yeo of JMC ask you to do so. lastly cc the email to your lawyer and ask them to forward the rest of the documents needed by Ms Azreen.

Have the owner in here experience high water bill? My tenant told me that they started to receive high water bill past 4 months until now. The mgmt concluded that it maybe because of leaking somewhere inside the cement. Is this possible to happen? Because I couldn't see any leaking from between the tiles anywhere except for broken pipe knob in the master bedroom toilet. Any expert can give advise here?
*
Off all the water inside your unit and than check your water meter outside. If the meter move, than there is leak. cry.gif

Visited last year thought to invest and rent it out to foreign workers before one Malay lady got slaugthered to death. Say bye bye after that incident cause dont want to find corpse in my unit.

Many people told me not to invest including my friend who owned a shop unit there but the price is cheap and if rent to foreign workers can get better rental.

owners there should be happy I backed off, if not may be foreigner there increase. rclxms.gif
*
If you rent it to foreigner you will probably get an extra RM3k per year. But if the place without foreigner, your investment will appreciate by RM10k - RM15k a year hmm.gif

Hi All,

Receive an email from Management regarding the recent 'Gotong- Royong' and 'People shifting' problems. Please give your best shot for the email below;

Tuan2 dan Puan2,

Alhamdulillah and thank God, although there were not many responding to the event
yesterday but better something than nothing. I had full cooperation from the staff and they were very helpful in all sense and aspect.

Thank you too, to the JMCs who rolled their sleeves and fold up their pants and helped. Sadly, MBPJ did not keep their promises to deliver the bins, right until this email is passed to you. Please bear with us and we are on their tails until now to get the bins.

Dear all,
This is a matter that we always face every weekend and holidays. People shifting in or out on Sundays and public holidays. Notices are up in the board but they are still doing it. We do pose that RM 100 for shifting in or out but for the so-called special case who are stubborn and untouchable we do allow but with a deposit of RM200.00. Much to my regret, the lifts will be down and rubbish left behind because no supervision from us. Can we get any suggestion on how to deal and penalise this people? Although we show them the House Rules but they still argue. At the end of the day, because of thia one special person, everybody suffers with broken down lifts and rubbish left behind.

Please advise.

Mehran Salleh,
Manager,
Flora Damansara (Medium) JMB
