Hi Bro/Sis, planning to get an unit at Palm Spring after view for twice, floor range 1-3.
After check with the bank value of the condo, is at RM 330k which tenants offer for RM 335k, is it worth to go for as fully furnish and 936sqf? Facing pool view.
Possible to request check with others bank value and follow the average?
Need strong advise.

Thanks.

That place is worth to go in but if the selling price can be
Lower then even better. May I know which block?

How far away the Palm Spring from MRT station ? Will the MRT station boost up the price of this condo ? This condo created a splash in the market by forbidding foreigners (students in particular) to stay there.

forbidding foreign tenants? no wonder fire sale lah. good luck

Implemented a few months already. I don't see that they are in fire sales mode leh.

Maintenance office is quite strict, anything not right they will chop off the water supply. Looks quite well maintained, at least from what the eyes can see.

That's just my shallow impression. Someone who knows more can enlighten us.

quite doubt, if limit the foreign tenant, could the local tenant coupe with the rental rate? If those unit are not for own stay, sub sale mode on, quickly let go before every one knows about this cruel rulling

The block can be seen the shell station.

Just to give some more info to solarwing and the rest since he asked me..

To make some preliminary remarks, I've been living in Palm Spring Condo for about a year now.

The "forbidden foreigners" policy is not really true, since as far as I can see, a big chunk of dwellers belongs to African and Arab ethnicity.

Same goes for students, there are PLENTY of Segi University College students staying in the condo, but most of them are nurses, thus they do not really create any issue whatsoever.

Regarding the price, lately it's boosting up a bit due to the hype of the new MRT Project which actually is making me shiver as it will increase the already infernal traffic around the area. All in all you have the largest option amongst the apartments so I assume the price isn't too far off the current value, especially if it's FF.

Other things that might affect the price are the floor, the house condition and the direct neighbors (who you MUST check beforehand, trust me) in my opinion.

During morning the traffic isn't just on the street but you will have hard time (10-15 mins depending on the time) to come out of the condo itself (if you drive a car) unless you work during odd times.

The amenities are pleasing though as the minimarket, the mamak, the laundry provide all the basic needs in case of emergency. Badminton, all the swimming pools and playgrounds are added value and well mantained. Water bills are relatively cheap unless you are a big waster (I get like RM 20 every 2 months for a family of 2+baby).

The last negative remark is probably not the management which does an alright job, but part of the community itself, who sadly try to dirt the place as much as they can by leaving trash around and throwing sh*t down their balcony. Ok the last thing is quite biased but I almost got hit by a stray can while walking with my daughter and I live on ground floor so I see flying object on a daily basis, so yeah..

I hope I've been explanatory enough, if you need more info just lemme know. Cheers!

Bro, thanks for all the explanation! bravo..

This condo appreciates quite fast too.... middle of last year around 260k for 936sf. Now already 330-340kl range. Almost 30% increase!

New MRT station is very near, but I dont think this is a single contributing factor. Kota Damansara as a whole, had undergone a huge transformation, to a chic and happening place.

Not bad for a 2000 unit leasehold condo

Good location even with high density will always have the demand ..

This condo is full of black guys and foreign students. Waling inside during off officve hour is like pasar malam, so many people on the walk way and you need to jam when you come out from the condo.
Worth for investment and is no good for own stay.

Now reach 400k mark already

Last time launch that time on 2005 or 2006, price is RM160K only.

Recently means when?





Overall Palm Spring is okay..
To me, i think that the previous plumber contractor did a very bad job.
The car park flooded almost every time when rain pour. you can see water from every directions...
Plus, there are many water proving problem as well ...
Remember to check..

I like Palm Spring, it has a high rental yield from people working around Mutiara, Kota Damansara, and Bandar Utama... mainly young working professionals. That's if you wish to take that path, its cool!

cos i heard is that some foreigners murder a property agent few months back..
but that case was also happen outside of Palm Spring..

Bout your news, i not so sure wor...
murder case? suicide?

So, TS back off for continuing this purchase?

I also interested in this.
Reviewing and doing survey

what makes u like this place?
