Yup...the rental yield is not high if compare with other areas....

For capital appreaciation ...yes.... but still concern....this kind iconic design will outdated after 5 years???

So many blocks..still iconic meh. Like u have 3 klcc 6 Blocks there ....klcc ll still b iconic there?

Yup...right also...

All block about similar....

This place is purely speculated property.
Although it is iconic but i have reserve on the demand upon completion.
Rental is not gonna make it, appreciation is also pressured with so many units completed at the same time.
But i agree many would not want to sell upon completion and many would like to keep it as it is one hell of a product.
When gem shine, it will also brighten the surrounding rocks. Anyone know which condo that have a good view on this iconic building ? it might be a better bet.

Some of my friends are engaging some foreign workers to q for them. Probably will start doing it on late afternoon. Each person takes 1 or 2 workers to book the q. I'm asking for his help as well

Not sure whether the security guards allow this to happen or not? Looks like the q will start with foreign workers first before local people

how long need to queue ... I can help que

You know despite gov increasing rpgt , dibs .. possible blr increase..... Malaysians are still in bbb mode on this min 800k proj. Guess this prop is indeed bbb.wished I could join in the fun this round. Get yr chq ready n happy hunting guys

even speculation of increasing opr by 0.5 points also not scaring ppl away

i think this project can help uplift the surrounding rentals.

tamarind, saffron, capers for high end

rafflesia for middle end

melur, mawar middle low end


the biggest benefactor i reckon would be rafflesia as it is a true blue residential condo for middle income

maybe fennel & capers can push it abit more interms of rental

The rental will be high bcos of demand....still cannot see high demand at tat area....

No international education hub, commercial not so hot, no cooperate offices, no night life, no mega mall....... just a normal resident area which is near to KL center only.....

people willing to pay the high rental bcos of nice facade???...hmmm... lets time to tell the truth...

well it is one of the most connected location in KL actually. plus it has the advantage of 2 existing star lrt stations, ktm, direct access to mrr1, duke, jln tun razak, jln ipoh.

not some wannabe location. the closest we can compare is by looking at saffron and tamarind. though i reckon when capers and especially fennel completed, it will cannibalised the rental market for saff n tamrind.

this project seems more solid than others which offering crazy prices at obscure locations

Capers...those who bought facing Sentul will have one hellava view when Fennel is completed...I know someone who bought Capers for RM440 psf...make money kow kow..

fuhhh 100++% profit

If fennel price exceed 850psf, why not buy capers instead? Capers will be ready sep 2014

thats the logical thing todo.

but pipu flocking the fennel sales are banking on the idea that if they got the first bite, they will sure fire profit.

plus subsale requires bigger capital outlay compared to primary market. no?

yes, anyway I saw this ad for capers asking price of RM796 psf.....buy in Sep 2014 = 3 years earlier than Fennel completion = early rental stream.

Anyone knows how to going to starhill after midnight? Starhill is supposed to close after 10pm?

my 2c,
just my thoughts la..as this morning too free and nothing to do in ofis...
Pipu alwys like to compare (or make reference )with MK...

Generally MK occupancy rate is not high (supported by lack of lights at night) but so what? Most buyers are buying to keep and sell. Hence naturally it will be empty at night. It is "investor property (u can call is speculative) so expect it be that way

As for Sentul-YTL only.... not other sentul, acclaimed with:
-YTL masterplan
-Connectivity to major highways
-LRT, KTM and MRT or even HSR (konon konon)
-parks and greenery (all or most YTL condos got parks, Maple, Saffron (except Tamarind)

My boobservation...
-By nature, rental yield is not super good (circa 5% according to one of the recent blog), expect more challenging rental environment for Fennel...(supply and price)
-a very very huge mixture of tenants with small community (unlike MK with Korea kampung, Japan village, french colony)... those in Sentul East and West are sort of isolated group. So far.. Upper class ME, americano, dutch, frenchies, korea, japang and of course the local..
- though no international school within the area, there are still many arrangements of bus/van picking up kids to take them to the private school nearby in the morning.

So what I think of Fennel and Capers as the impact?
- introducing of iconic buildings that could sort of attract some attentions to this area.
- more units available in the community... rental competition? Maybe create the more market place?
- another step to transform the sentul...

So what i personally experienced over the years?
When tamarind n saffron was launched.. we asked ourself: What? Sentul? Why is the price so high?
When Capers was launched, we asked again. Why is the price 4xx psf (4xxpsf then was high)
Now, when fennels is launched.. I asked myself... why the price again?!

So far, all the YTL products in sentul enjoy very good flipping price and ofcourse superb security and maintenance .. record pricing is set each time defying gravity... eg: i never thought maple, saffron and tamarind subsale price today...can reach this level...

Good luck buyers...

Developer's price for Capers was RM400++ psf. Stupid never buy that time. It was sold out 100% in 2 days wor... Now, Capers not even completed already RM800++ psf asking price.

At first i wanted to buy Fennel during Phase 1 but hesitated after listening to some negative comments here. Haiya, missed the chance already. That too sold out during weekend. My fren went to Starhill on the Sunday of the phase 1 preview and told me eh how come no one here! I told him: Of course la... u think u the only one who likes the design ah!!?

im not benefit so much for DIBS...cos i need to flock out 30%...n some need to wait after 4.5 years..
