Hi William,

Are any of your friends still offering Karya for RM800K?

Let me know if they are. Am interested in buying one for own stay.
Looking forward to your reply.

Thanks,
Dave

Hi Chris,

Both are good value for their sizes but I feel 850K is slightly on the high side at the moment.

As for Arca and Karya preference, call me superstitious but from a Feng Shui point of view, Karya is better. Arca has many flaws.

Designwise, I like Arca and I can be very creative with its existing build-up especially the courtyard. Therefore, from an interior design point of view, interior of Arca looks better than Karya. However, Karya has more usable space.

On the exterior, I love the wide porch of Karya and I feel Arca's porch is too narrow for 2 cars. It will fit but the 2 cars will have to squeeze. Karya's porch will fit 2 cars comfortably side-by-side. Not to mention its pebble-stone finishing.

Weighing both pros and cons, I will go with Karya as less renovation is needed before I can move in. Yes, I'm planning to purchase for own stay and not for investment.

Another option to me is Ukiran. I'd just received an offer for 780K. At the same 24x80, worth a look at.

Cheers.
