Bro, as a fellow fern lane owner, i would happily fork out a bit more cash monthly for the sake of our safety.

Oh no, yes!  A registered post arrived today from SD... I guess it's time for VP..

Am looking at between Q1 & Q2....

Ok. Here is a short list of what we spotted during our first inspection for Fernlane

1. Spider cracks on concrete car roof. Also concrete holes that must be repaired.
2. Poor job on the laminated flooring actually. Minor scratches but have a look at the finishing by the door. Poor.
3. Scratches on material for master bathtub. they said will repolish.
4. Chips on tiles in bathroom
5. Misc. paint issues. cracked paint at balcony and uneven paint lines
6. Staircase corner tiling was not even. (The first step. susah nak explain )

Some others cant remember. Try to get photos up. Kinda minor detailing jobs but for the price i paid, expected better. Also, NO HOT WATER PIPING! ... nak hot water for your sinks etc= repipe. That, i am most disappointed with.

also the main contractor came to see us. told us that water pump for rainwater tank is not installed until we ask them to.

And yes..first electric bill dah sampai. pay up man! (RM 7.50)

Minor issues to be corrected. Since I bought my FIL with me who is a QS. He said quality was good overall.
Solid wood front door.
Good solid frames/windows.
Good quality tiles and laminated flooring.

Its the minor details that brought them down
like, the laminated flooring edges by the doors. Macam kena tampal dengan UHU.
plastic handles for the windows. - the tingkap kampung i call it. (dunno the name but i love tingkap kampung)
Paintjob was not clean.

Thats all for now. Sorry, i was not really listening to the SD guy/main contractor about defect liability claiming process. All i heard we have 2 years. 
I was just going around with my own contractor pointing at flaws and opening windows etc. Things they have to mark.

PM me your contact details, I'll get them to call you.

Have you moved in mate?

That's good to hear mate. What sorta reno work are you doing anyways?

I am in the midst of planning the work on my unit. Most probably will commence work on early Q2 only as my contractor is kinda tied up with other projects at the moment.

I am targeting to move-in either on end Q2 or early Q3.

...AND am intending to get the FERN LANE folks all well aligned and tagged to make our community closer & stronger. 

Visited my place this morning. Noticed all room doors was open. My sink fittings all gone.
I didn't check but I suppose the manhole cover is gone too..

Sigh... 

Staying in Shah Alam better wait for near full occupancy first before moving in. High chance of getting burgled or rob. Moreover it is not Gated. Wonder why SD don't want to have G&G with this kind of price. Security is most important. 1 incident can scar your whole life. Be patient buyers don't be a hero moving in so fast. But if you do just take precaution of bikers around you before getting out of your car.

Want to be a hero also can. No harm. Somehow you need Guinea Pigs. Otherwise how the burglars cari makan?

Tone down. Some of us doesn't have the luxury option of waiting to move in.Some people have to make do with the only house they can, move in right after VP. Are these people the "guinea pigs" or trying to be hero...?..
Think again...

Really stupid. The timing is too fast to allow the cars to clear.
