QUOTE(johnnyg @ May 20 2013, 03:42 PM) Just got info. Say now no more DIBS from initially promised... but give 5% disc. So now only need to pay 5% downpayment. BUT those who purchased 3 bedroom compulsory need to purchase another parking lot at 25K!!! Anyone kena this??? Agreed then later add this carpark... Those who purchase 1 or 2 bedroom have the option, not compulsory. I've received my Registration Form last week. Yes, the form mention clearly that the second parking is compulsory.

QUOTE(matrixation @ May 21 2013, 09:12 AM) I'm not sure, and I'm wondering the same too. Is it coz they know they won't be able to complete as scheduled hence no more DIBS? Not sure of the past experiences with other developments under this developer..  apparently it'll take 4 yrs instead of the usual 3 yrs for completion of this project, hence they prolly opted for 5% disc instead of DIBS to the purchasers. but yea, my concern is also of the non-movement of the project...with lalangs n the abandoned alam damai showroom still there upon my visit to the site last week. high risk high returns i guess. cant find anywhere for a sub-RM400 psf 3r 2b condo with a decent facade nx to a monorail station at that location...only if execution can be done that is!

Yes I do agree No DIBS but come with 5% discount is about the same. But the problem is for those 1050sqft need to fork out 25k in cash for additional car park.
this mean, 5% DP about 20k (CASH) + 25K (CASH) car park + 3years bank loan interest will be different game liow compare to previous 40k + DIBS, and wait.
remember, 3 years loan interest is about 20k too.

Guys, the reason I am asking if all 3bedroom really is compulsory to purchase the extra carpark cos my sis in law also a 3room was not told about the need to buy extra carpark. Which this is fishy. I am waiting for an aunt who booked 2units of 3rooms to give me the confirmation if she was told to buy compulsory extra carpark.

Apparently one of the proposed intersection station between KVMRT 1 (Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line) and KVMRT 2 (Sg Buloh-Serdang-Putrajaya line) will be at Plaza Phoenix. I really hope this becomes reality. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2812459/+20?hl=MRThttp://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?p=103405992http://kvmrt.info/category/kvmrt-klang-valley-mrt/

Can extend time for S&P?
