I think it's definitely a good buy considering location right in city centre n selling point is next to Quill City mall n monorail convenience!

Seems sidetracked a bit instead of focusing on d sales/bookings for The Colony haha. Anyway it's good to see d mall burgeoning but how abt any new info from any buyer of The Colony? Comments please:)

Pic taken today 18/2/16 showing d groundwork n basement car park floors progressing nicely hehe:)

With d never ending new property developments in d surrounding area n d endless choices, shopping around n comparing factors is inevitable but it will also set u back d opportunity to grab a good buy before u miss d boat. For me, two main factors, d next door mall n within reach of d monorail are wat attracted me to settle for d Colony, n I m not d least shaken by all those self-professed guru's negative comments of dis project lol:). After all if u r happy with it, go for it as u can't win them all n stop crying over spilt milk once u made up ur mind, or invest in more in other areas if u can afford to lol:)
Quill Mall has AEON as anchor tenant n d mall has d potential to do better than now with more new developments in d surrounding area. Compared to Sunway Putra Mall in an already matured locality n it's still not doing well despite well connected by public transport, u see large crowds only when there are events in PWTC. D FnB r doing fine there but retail businesses r sluggish as in most other malls. I shd know dat as I m there almost every other day lol.

U r absolutely spot on there too...in fact looking at all malls nowadays, ppl r cutting down on spendings except one still gotto eat, albeit more economical FnB outlets. Las Vacas in Putra Mall is destined to close down anytime soon, on d best of days there r no more than a handful diners at d most, sad while their outlet in Mt Kiara r doing so well. TGV too is never able to pull in d crowds like GSC if they hv a choice lol.
All being said, d potential is there for Quill mall n I foresee d Colony shd b a good investment for tenanting out or wise choice for own stay for all d conveniences in d surrounding area...well I m happy n contented lol:)

As mentioned earlier, retail bzness has been suffering since a year back, n Putra Mall is targeting d wrong crowd n Jln Ipoh/Sentul residents r low on spending power for luxury stuffs n fancy restaurants:(

Don't talk through ur nose if unsure....which part of KL city is free of crime honestly? D whole country n people r sick to d core anyway.

What about dis contractor?....good reputation? I hv no idea lol.

Dis Developer has a reliable track record in Spore, however I m more concerned with d main contractor they appointed here....anyone any idea how good r they?

I m no expert n like I commented in earlier posts, d decision is entirely up to oneself after u balance up all d pros n cons n still think it's buyable...for me d asking price for dat location is reasonably affordable n quite low, plus d added bonuses of Quill City mall just crossed d road dat links to d monorail station, which is merely 3 stations away from bkt Bintang! Even d surrounding vicinities r great in my opinion:)

Dual key concept meaning u r like having a complete unit to urself, own privacy n not having to share d common areas as opposed to renting just a room sharing with ur other housemates...ur own main entrance to ur private little den if u know wat I mean:). For some who don't cook, it's just as good as like staying in a hotel room lol.

Dis link on dual key concept forum might help...but yes, d thought of utilities meters never dawn on me haha...must clarify with d Developer really:)

Dalam bisnes Property / Investment Property,
ini salah satu cara untuk control bill TNB melambung tinggi dan semua tak mengaku dan semua tak nak bayar.

Letakkan meter bacaan elektrik setiap bilik.

Dapat control ikut bilik bill eletrik. Tiada isu lagi sapa yang guna lebih atau guna kurang.


A friend here sent me dis info n link if it's of any help to answer ur queries on dual key utilities bills charges.

Of course dat was just a suggestion in order to avoid arguing with d tenants on d electricity used....who is asking u to instal one in every room when d option is yours lol?

Thankfully only one downside against so many upside lol:-P.

Monorail in front, Dang Wangi lrt n Sultain Ismail lrt on either side....u literally have them all at left, right n centre lol:)

Coz d person who mentioned dat has other motives perhaps lol?

Clearly from a competitor's point of view huh? Why not shop there?...big anchor tenant Aeon is there plus a plethora of other branded names, unless one is a chow kit shopper lol:-P

Haha why fight n argue abt Quill mall compared with other malls people? Everybody is entitled to their opinion n to each his own which mall suited one best. Too many neighbourhood malls mushrooming up in d region have spread thin d crowds. Shouldn't dis forum b discussing abt Colony n it's nearby amenities n attractions instead of which mall out beat which lol? I am just thankful dat there is a nice mall right at d doorsteps for d everyone's convenience dats it:)

If dats not nearby n convenient enough, then one must be an invalid dat needs to be wheeled everywhere right from one's doorsteps....or perhaps for someone who has not lived overseas before or hardly travel d world to appreciate d true meaning of convenience n nearby, well within walking distance:)
