QUOTE(alenn @ Jun 8 2015, 07:05 PM) Thanks, I've just called this afternoon and being told the cheapest unit now is from RM920k onwards with just a given car park. Guess RM0.45 maintenance fees is 1 of the highest in the KL area, even Mon't Kiara condo charging from RM0.22psf on wards only. Ten years maintenance fees if let say maintain at RM0.45 psf, for a 1200sf unit, would cost you RM64.8k. If it increase on the 5th year onwards by RM0.10 then you will be paying RM72k for the maintenance fees in ten years time. Real high maintenance...... to stay in such an awesome iconic condo @@" The fee is just the sum of many variables.. forming the fee.. You need to see the cleaning, maintenance, landsaping services.. Security... and the number of units, sizes, density that forming the condo RM0.22psf for MK condo but the size maybe 2500sqft with 460units density. However one thing for sure... YTL charged very high maitenance fee even for ther lower grade condos...

QUOTE(ZackQ @ Jun 11 2015, 04:25 PM) Typical Malaysian! Want condo as high end as possible, but management fee as low as possible. But ytl is always higher, even MF1 was charged rm0.35 if i am not mistaken. Yes, Saffron charged RM0.39psf if not wrong Not sure about Centrio. Their monthly property management fee is RM10k if not mistaken and cannot be reduced. That was the figure told to me 3 years ago to manage Saffron.

I have been inside Capers, own YTL previous purchasers and infact was interested to buy Capers during the launch and was staying in this area for few years. Just my 2 cents remarks and i tried not repeat same remarks in this thread or Capers where running into few hundred pages.
Buyers (regardless investors or homestayers) for whatever reason, bought into YTL project without proper scaled model, show unit, finishes and just based on YTL reputation and few pieces of paper, need to queue for few hours make buying decision in few minutes. Some will make a right decision and some will not based on their judgement.
The actual product facade is great. the landscaping is fanstatic and YTL security is always very tight.
It depends on perspective where you are coming from. If you are looking at perspective from home owner point of view, obviously you emphasize a lot on design, practicality, finishes and workmanship. If you have high expectation that you will get BRDB equivalent product, then you might be disappointed. From my visit i saw some design flaw such as
1. The visitor carpark is located outdoor and no indoor. 2. The glass wall (in between wall and the exterior window frame) between rooms. 3. No proper drop off area/porte cochere and grand lobby 4. Sky deck seems unfinished
If you are coming from perspective of investors, if you choose your units correctly during the launch, you will make a good money such as 1381sqft with Batu Caves view.. The developer price is ranging from RM450psf to RM800psf and regardless what is the yardstick you use, the gap is huge for size between 8XX sf to 15XX sft. If you are holding those low rise or even High rise KL View units, i wonder how is the transaction/ rental doing at the moment? And infact if you mind to share, what is the occupancy rate at the moment?
And if you looking to buy for own stay/ investment, obviously you are trying to parang as low as possible. However so far forum will never able to influence the price movement lar...
End of day, it boil down to your needs, budget and expectation.

QUOTE(NickyEng @ Jun 16 2015, 04:09 PM) Already looking out? So did you move out or not yet? Owner or tenant?  I tot this is Fennel thread, why suddenly all slam on Capers? kekeke. Join our community and slam us lor. I'm owner who stay and moved in 1st March 2015. If asking me, comparing Fennel to Capers? hmm... I can't judge Fennel, but here's what i know. Whatever mistake they had/having with Capers, they will do it right in Fennel. So calm down. Take Tamarind & Saffron as example of this. Just hope there are no jacuzzi & water featured sky terrace in Fennel, if there is, good luck to all residents there. +1 Capers is good product. Surely got hiccup here and there for such bold condominium... YTL dares to be different rather than just another run off the mill like UOA. At least developer improvise on Fennels. with Proper Porte Cochere.....

The concept is good though. effectively, If the block D are selling from RM700psf, the buyers are getting the 2 bedders cheaper than Capers buyers.
Just need to pay extra for the bundled in 1 bedder.
