Just got internal news. Empire City 2, yes you see it right its 2. Is coming, opposite empire city and beside Flora Damansara.

walao-eh... what sort of product are they launching? Soho and Studios?

According to the developer's style so far, most probably soho n studios....but IMHO, damansara perdana has more than enough shoebox units, its getting annoying to have more there

bo bian.. when developers say in the media that they gonna build affordable houses, maybe this is what they meant.. lolzz..

I think abang accetera started a thread for tis quite some time ago. If not mistaken it looks similar to a project in china. Hav to search the thread to confirm tis.

Lemme guess...at 280-300K per shoebox...

with no carpark..

true, with affordable price range, one can only opt to buy a new studio or an run down condo, i guess most yuppie would choose the former

Yes I heard about this too from sources close to developer. One more keng info is they are planning to build a platform 'on top' of LDP linking current EC and new EC accross LDP and had gotten greenlight from council, time will tell how true is this info.

wah.. can they manage or not??
empire remix also like no progress at all one..

How many shoeboxes can the market take really?

If not mistaken remix has undergrd carpark rite? It takes longer time to build it. Once undergrd done then it ll b very quick liao. I blif the damen is goin thru the same thg. They took 1 yr to complete the undergrd carpark.

How's the demand for the shoeboxes at the 1st empire city? anyone knows?

subsale n rental going slow, asking price around 20% higher than launch price, so unrealized paper gain is 20%, assuming 250k purchase price and rental around 1300 (for easy calculation) rental yield around 5% -6% (if can rent out)

pls verify d info as i gt it from an agent tat i juz met not long ago

Launching date and where to register?

Yes they are coming with a "SUPERB" project. Next to the temple and Flora.

Where is this?

location wise not as gd as empire city '1', but i suppose the view would be better (exclude temple) since its on higher plane isnt it?

vague generalisation of studio performance in dp

Got any more extra information??

where to view more info abt this?

Nice.. Empire should b able to mk to top 10 developer this year d.. So many bug projects this year..

but i heard from somebody said will be 800sf onwards...

Won't be surprise at 800psf, subsale for ED studio already reaching 780psf.

sorry i meant the size of the smallest unit is 800 square feet onwards, unlikely they will build any more tiny shoebox at tht area again...

I was the one who wrongly read ur post, sorry should come from me.

niway, wat u said too r correct...so estimated price would be around 640k suppose

could be correct too, this project comes with a nice natural lake + park... And maybe will be a bridge connected to opposite shopping mall! Very excited about all these ideas...

My info oso confirmed slow sales...asking Rm310k but some banks value at Rm270k onli

What project/unit is this?

empire city completed already? got subsales and rental started?

is the access to empire city 2 same as flora damansara?

launch date?
would you think it is oversupply?

wow... a true test for pigeon holes in DP.. what are the other dev which are pigeon hole dominance in DP? Empire City, Neo Damansara, Altium?

no point buying.

Next to flora damansara? Hahaha. Car park there will ok or not?

some r still pretty bullish about these small units down south KV... the supply there are much much more compare to DP..

tooo density

Another one...

i think the price wont cheap at all now.. should be > RM 650 sq ft. but the area is very good..a lot green except the Flora Damansara very close to it..

green soon will replace by building due to hot market now ...

wow... banks so gung-ho? 270k valuation.
salute!

gung ho?
what language is that?

English...

what is the launching price? around 500psf? pai the soho king also vested in empire city.if only appreciated 20% means he got it wrong?bad investment?

Got shoplot?

if got ED2, then the most benefit will be Flora damansara. must aim flora, not ED

huh? really?

How does studios sustain without a college nearby is beyond me really...

This project buy or not depends on access road. If no new access road, then as good as dead. If got connection to highway and overhead connection to EC then got chansi. Pricewise will likely be reasonable as all their projects are. Just dont't expect quality product, though for sure design will be contemporary.

Look at ritze 2 at night, less than 50% got light up....with ED coming out and empire city next...gd luck

ritze maybe due to MK management bad....

anyway to register for ED 2??

Its near to many offices, international one. Location is not bad ...

I heard NEO is better than Ritze 2? Correct me if im wrong..

Land for Lung Mu temple gazetted

Land for Lung Mu temple gazetted
No entry: A trough for lorries carrying construction materials will be closed to prevent them from entering the temple site.

LAND in Damansara Perdana for construction of the Mother of Dragon (Lung Mu) Temple has been gazetted.

Federation of Kwong Siew Association of Malaysia organised a Buddhist blessing ceremony at the site recently to celebrate the good news.

The function was attended by Petaling Jaya Utara (PJU) federal development coordinator Datuk Dr Wong Sai Hou, Batu MP Tian Chua and Kelana Jaya MP Loh Gwo Burne who represented Bukit Lanjan assemblyman Elizabeth Wong.

Federation chairman Ho Sai Chong said building plans for the three-storey temple on the 0.28ha land were ready for submission.

“The building cost is estimated at RM5mil and fundraising activities have started. We are confident that we can raise the amount needed as the federation has 47 member associations in the country, with about 100,000 members,” he said.

Ho added that the construction, slated to take two years, would likely start next year if plans were approved.

He said numerous delegates would join them in the site’s ground-breaking ceremony next month.

“China alone is sending 80 delegates to celebrate the occasion,” Ho said.

Meanwhile, Wong pointed out that a row of fence had been put up to prevent trucks accessing an adjacent construction from trespassing into the temple’s site.

“The trucks are now required to use another access road instead of leaving behind a trail of uneven surface here that may hinder the temple’s construction,” he said.

He also urged the state government to consider granting a title to the temple committee.

“Having the land gazetted is not good enough to secure the place permanently,” he added.

Chua said the state had been engaged in a long talk with the developer, who intended to use the land for development.

While the gazettement is a relief to many, talk of the ownership of an adjacent plot of land measuring 0.17ha currently used as a carpark is still underway.

“The state government will attempt to obtain the carpark for the temple’s use. It takes some time because the developer has included the plot in its development plan,” Chua said.

Loh called for the abolition of a clause used in the past, which stated that land used for non-Muslim worship places must be less than 20,000 sq ft.

“The authorities have been lenient about this requirement, but still, I hope the clause can be abolished,” he said, adding that worship places should also be given a prominent location like the Lung Mu Temple to showcase the country’s unique diversity.

Wondering why not

Well, you did manage to liquidate and I'm assuming made some profit?

Enough reason for people to keep buying their products despite the proven bad delivery, yet very much liquid products.

I dont know how lousy they are but i seen some must more lousy condo than ED and selling sky high price, crap location and outdated design.

Empire always good in design but..if they can improve quality of finishing , they may consider inside top 20 developer

Agreed. The interior material is not so good

Their exterior looks good, hope that they can improves n their quality of finishing. I guess most ED buyers r laughing all the way to the bank.

empire city n empire remix using different contractor?
maybe quality is better

empire city n empire remix using different contractor?
