i think tough lah.
especially present market condition.
even z-residence also still struggles?

Yes, its the market conditions that make subsales tougher. The price psf looks ok and fair to purchase at such scale at RM 500++ psf. Summore absolute price issue and size matters. 1000sq ft unit definitely would do well at RM 650k based on heavy demand.

ZR struggling bcz too many diff pricing buyers from dev, ranging from RM 320-580 psf, thus early buyers able to lower down the purchase price which late buyers would be not happy.

Furthermore, ZR alredy have few units on lelong. It impacted the street of condos.

Dear all, im here to inform that fb group is creating a working group to gather all the KR2 buyers to lodge a complaint to the developer because one of the buyer has been told by the contractor that the layout/design of the guard house, water features, poolside terrace, swimming pool etc will be different from what had shown in the brochure or youtube video clip.
Just in case you are not so active in FB, kindly check on your fb for the latest updates.
We need to voice out before the final product comes out to avoid the same thing happened to KR1.
From Change of condo's name to change of unit number and now we couldn't get what had actually attracted us to buy this property (beside the good location).  So much of disappointment!  cry.gif
If you would like to join this working group, kindly provide your name, email address & contact number.

Compare the 2 pictures below, see the difference and pls note the guard house looks like 2 tier, but in fact it is not.
*
Go go go! Support!~

But, worry that it is too late although the facilities area is on going.

I can understand the change of condo name, due to LH, landowner is government department and under DBKL, to maintain the English name is not easy or according to solicitor that I ve known for years, this is standard compare to Selangor and if not mistaken, the group of purchasers were voted the new name of Kiara Jalil, which is not the worst name actually.

I also can understand the change of unit number. Actually the unit we purchased upon under constructions, for any projects, was a Lot. No only ( for developer and purchaser reference for the Type they buying & selling ) instead of Postal Unit. No, which only approved by authority before VP, and in this case, the allocation understanding is quite stupid IMHO although I am not affected by the unit number.

But, totally will be dissappointed if the facilities area also so huge difference from what were the previous selling points. 80% i feel happy dy, lol but if 100% different, then jialatz, unless it change to another looks of good bcz the brochure one also looks so so only. Nothing to shout.

Hmm, about the guard house, really looks different. What about other important common areas?

Anyway, All the best!~

OMG, why guard house like this!!!
Can imagine that my unit also "dong go Sui"

Ya man, the important thing now is facilities area, let's see how much % difference compare to brochure or marketing tools, but I never expected even at 80%.

Even if differ, see how good and bad looking is the actual facility or design. To have complete 90-100% same lookalike, I believe it is utmost impossible for developer like this.

But, internal units, ceiling, wall, tiles, all quality okay. A lot better than my Zest.

Never once thought of the brochure or this development as 'luxury'.  whistling.gif

I kept telling my friends to consider it as medium cost compared to KM1 and other more upmarket condo's nearby.  biggrin.gif
*
Wahh, KM1, price differs by at least 40% upon launching. Almost bought 1 last time but pricing really made me off and feel unsecure upon flipping.

Some people said KM1 looks boring and sucks and put in comparison of The Treez is a lot better. But, to be in conventional way, there are something element I like about KM 1 West such as conventional design, facade, entrance, it's positioning among all highrises in BJ and most of all, I like the quality of internal units, not superb but quite good. I only like The Treez's facade and it's modern design but too lack of facilities based on high price points.

The % define by, as per brochure indicate as"luxuriant" now become low/medium cost apartment

Hmm, unfortunately then ...

We know it little bit sucks in certain outlook, but perhaps my conventional way is not classic enough like most purchasers.

Maybe the low cost or medium costs apartment definition is also too low requirement for me.

I always branded KR2 as medium high cost apartment, at most.

Oic. I didnt notice RR but passby once few mths ago but looks decent for me but my frens now seems counting profit while keep saying its good quality.

Internal finishing wise acceptable but the whole project facade and finishing kinda missing the creamy topping. Not ump enough i feel. Maybe just me. Profit on paper or hard cold muneh? Haha. Paper gain doing quite goid imho, 410psf onwards 2012 to 610psf onwards 2015.

Ic. I feel the case like you too. Just the facade like macam tarak cukup ummmph.

My fren, he and his gang all bought KR1, KR2 and RR said internal units RR and KR2 quite acceptable.

Btw, he had an offer of RM 1mil for his Type A 1591 sq ft, but he rejected the offer. Amazingly RM 628 psf for biggies!!!!

U didnt know?

I really dunno bcz seldom go FB group and find out.

But, its good for them to discuss and plan now rather than later although the facilities works only 50% or lesser. Well, except the guardhouse. Lol.

Thats quite an offer. 1 mill for 1600sqft condo in untested market in bk.ur fren want to stay? Infact i dint see much adverts for biggies online so far.

secondary buyer who willing to go that high for condo in bk may be not much. Even harder if substandard finishing.

Kr2 area i think competition just going to get stiffer for rental market. If finishing again not impressive, rental and subsale price will lag behind z res.kr2 price will be limited by kr1 if the characteristics more less the same.
*
He could be own stay but his friends, majority smaller size wanna flip later.

Kinda true, the competition is just going to be more stiffer day by day although some KR1 and ZR frens disagree with me. They still mentioned rental is good but subsales could be slower for ZR due to more units and its entry price for late buyers.

KR2 price will be limited by KR1 if KR1 owners willing to flip at lower price than transacted price of RM 650k, 680-700k and 700-730k subsequent sizes of 1050, 1267 & 1454 sq ft. All these were damm good price and even match ZR's subsale prices. I not sure the density plays a role here but I dont feel so.

Or else, KR2 will be end up like ZR, the entry price of RM 320 psf to RM 480 psf ( KR1 and KR 2 pricing then) and most of the subsales done lucratively on Block A instead of Block D where some are suffering the neighbours low asking price to stagnant it.

With the rental, I keep believing there is a capping everywhere, as tenants have more and more choices but if they insists on location and with LRT, the choices only left ZR, KR1 & 2 for its budget range.

I wont be overwhelming with the rental game although this is crucial for long term game. For KR2, I rather care on my COCR.

I havent been to KR2 , but if almost the same as RR, then it is not too bad.

Aiyo , lower standard nowadays .... tongue.gif

Almost exactly the same, but IMHO, RR would looks better facade or building compare to KR2 in view of
- Both only 8 units per floor, thus less stunning compare to block or tower contained more units per floor for bigger width tower and view
- RR more bigger size units compare to KR2, hence the balcony glass effects a lot
- RR's balcony is longer & bigger compare to KR2 ( big size vs big size )
- RR is 18 and 20 floors tower compare to KR2's 35 storey high on lower ground , from a view of Kesas direction, it made KR2 all towers
- The placement of double blocks of RR on that parcel of land is better view compare to triple towers of KR2, which was visible sideview along from the kesas both direction

Not sure if you went to correct address ...

If not mistaken, the KR office is the floor above a ladies boutique & fashion retail, I think it's called 2L, it's an end lot with pink or purple colour. Or, find a direction of another end lot next to 2L, the Strawberry Caffe ( dunno still existing or not )

I didn't attend. Anyway heard that developer is "trying" to do something to prevent the thing from going to legal.

Errrrm ...

Developer is verbally doing something to improve the design of the guardhouse, on-going works of pools, lift lobby, sky garden and etc but this is from the hardwork of some of the FB admins who had meeting with the developer directors last 1-2 weeks.

I think the above discussion has nothing related from the group who attended on the Saturday meet up session but none of the FB admins attending this and I also unsure who attended the session.

I also surprise if the things is able to go legal as the pool even not 50% complete yet!

The argument is if the even basic item such as guardhouse can be so "vary" from the brochure, then what about those "rain forest", skybar, hotel standard lobby, etc? Buyers are just not wanted to taking risk by waiting for the completion of the project then only pin pointing what is wrong which is too late by that time.

You also know the RR is not deliver up to the mark.
*
Haha. True.

But in this context, like what FB Admins doing, called up, meet up and verified it for action plan and discussion instead of keep condemning it or going legal action.

From what they shared, the lobby looks good same goes some others but definitely not all is going to be world class. I not sure how good is good bcz diff personality.

I certainly not demanding 90%, but 70%. I have ntg to say if only 50% but just tell myself, ignore this dev in future like what am I doing to some of my previous buys.

On the other hand, RR is sharing the similar situation, looks varied from poster but the actual condo, still looks impressive enough although not superb. Inportantly, it seems most buyers are happy with it. I am not sure if the actual transaction was the key making them happy.
