Morning ladies & gents,
Yikes, it took me 2 days to read all 69 pages of this thread! I'm so glad I've reached the end of it
Anyways, looks like I'm one of the very (very) few Ivy Terrace owners here. I think I saw one but he/she stopped commenting after a few comments on this thread.
Anyways, here's my take on Ivy Terrace:
Occupancy rate: The number of for sale/rent posters/banners only represent maybe about 10 or at most 15% of the entire phase. Occupancy rate is picking up and should reach around 50% by the end of 2013.
Design: Since there was no show house, we had to rely on the plans. Other than a stupid wall right smack in the middle of the MBR and too many fish ponds (end unit), overall it was ok lahh... Some of the room proportions might have been a bit weird but livable I guess.
Finishing: Considering my sister lives in BJ and spent a hefty sum in buying property in D'Puncak, I wasn't expecting much but I was glad that SD somehow impressed. Built quality was good and the materials used does meet my expectations given the price I paid for the house.
Defects: My main worry was the sky-light roof thingy and as I mentioned earlier, was so glad that it hasn't shown any leaks. Other than your normal hairline cracks and minor paint chips here and there, overall it was ok. My only grouse would be the doors. Good quality but poorly maintained during construction. Scratches and peeling due to water seepage on almost all the doors.
We've done a first round of defects submission and it has been corrected (almost 90%). So the second round of defects would be for the doors and that should be it.
Moving in: Sometime in Q1 of 2014 from the looks of things. Managed to secure kitchen cabinets during the recently concluded living expo in Mid Valley. Maybe some minor reno work (budget constraint) but things should pick up after Raya

In my cluster my neighbor and the angular house are for sale but not sure why, but no one wants to buy it.
