yes did it. Full extension about 20k, sliding door 2.6k++.

Student will be there for a while as tenancy normally sign for at least one year.

But i foreseen a lots would not renew due to
a. Higher demand e.g the new General hospital staff. Thus students would not be prefer by owners
b. Higher rental as students cannot afford (in many case, student need to pay premium. eg. now around RM1600 to RM1800 maybe)
c. Better control from the management in term of car parking and access card. Student may think is quite troublesome every time need to gain entrance.
d. Some owner who rented out to students is not for own stay, thus after tenancy expired, maybe will sell the house.

I bought from ken rimba not from subsale.. u must always call u bank agent and u laywer...

You should call the lawyer and banker to get them to process the loan agreements then.

I signed it on July 3rd and took me about 3 mths ie. from S&P signing to getting keys next week......land title still being processed at the land office so i still have to wait. Could have been faster but there were some hiccups between the bank and dev so the delay was about 2 weeks or so.

A month is kinda long for a no news period though. Have you started or completed your loan agreement yet? Need to get the lawyer to prepare the papers and for you to sign it, from there, it's a waiting and chasing game for the disbursement and land title

Just collected my keys today and proceeded with a preliminary checking of defects. Kinda disappointed with the devs workmanship. The finishings are a tad untidy and the beams are uneven. Reported them as defects but doubt anything can be done on that already. All in all, there are about 15 defects major and minor inclusive which i detected today. Will be going again in the next few days before submitting the form to mgt. :S

There was also a hole in the wall at the indoor plants area......the rest of the defects were minor ones like cracks on the stairs wood, a few hollow tiles, hairline cracks, untidy finishings and water tap which was built too close to the wall. Don't think they'd do much except mend those cracks and stair woods but anyway, i reported it as defect as well and see what they would do about it. Hope this helps

Yeap, I bought from dev after it was completed. Just did the inspection last 2 weeks. However, i was late for the appointment due to a long queue at the mgt office and the contractor who was supposed to wait for me at the house left for lunch and never came back. Called the mgt office and they sent another one of their staff to run through the checklist. They will give u time to check for defects (they told me 2 weeks and submit after you've listed down all)
Not same case with completed property. I have been informed from the mgt that for completed property, you buy it as-is....which is what you see is what you get. No warranty. However, in this case, as a gesture of goodwill, Ken Holdings agreed to allow us to check for defects and submit for rectification prior to your stay/reno. But that is a one-off thingy so need to make sure all defects are covered and repaired.

Those who bought it when undercon or from subsale still maintain the 2 warranty though. So, there is something of a double standard here which has confused many of the owners as well. 

I remember they have 3 different checklists.

1st checklist for the keys - 3 sets of keys (22 pcs of keys if I remember correctly) for you to test all of them and confirm none are faulty). If yes, mark in the checklist which is faulty.

2nd checklist for the elec point outlets/sockets/air cond/fan hook etc.

3rd one is the defect check list - this one they will leave it with you and you may check the house to your content and return the list to them at a later date. (you need to return a set of keys to mgt as well so they may enter your house to repair - need to fill in a form of consent for them to enter your house)

Ken staff only ran through the 2nd checklist with me and the rest is test on your own.

yes i agree with u..there is no more tile same like that,,,i bought the same colour but diffrent brand

Finally, unifi is activated!!!

Weird, i haven't shifted in yet, heck, they are still working on the defects after 1 mth.....but the many times i've been to the house, i don't detect any weird smell from the toilets. Is there a specific time when the smell emits? Like maybe after a heavy downpour or only during daytime etc.?

I would suggest that you personally go to the mgt office to settle things. From my experience, they are unresponsive to emails. I submitted and paid for my residence card but sent the photos via email because i don't have it with me at the time of submission and the staff said i can email them. I called and sent another follow up email to them to notify me when they finished processing it but after 1 and a half months, no response even after a 2nd follow up mail on my side. So i went to the office to ask them about it, and only then, did they process the card for me and it took them less than 10 minutes to print my photo from the email and gave me the card.

So far they did not inform or update me on the repairs but i went to check on the house from time to time and they did rectify it part by part so i guess they're doing their job. Just a bit slow but understandable coz they only have a few contractors and so many houses to work on. I submitted another add-on defect list to the office today coz just found out 2 of my electric sockets are not working.

A question for those who have moved in or in the process of moving in. Is there a handbook from the management lining out the guidelines of what we can do and cannot do?

If yes, where could I obtain it from? Genesis Nature or the Ken Rimba Gallery?

I would say just submit it in whenever you found a defect. I just saw a defect today which wasn't there when i checked last week. There was a small hole/crack on the wall behind my main door. And the size and place corresponds exactly to where my door handle meets the wall. My guess is when the contractors opened the door, they did it too wide and hard so it knocked my wall and made a hole there.

Anyway, I almost had an argument with ken holdings staff (note: not the genesis mgt folks but the staff who sold the house to me). I went to check on the status and wanted to report the above additional defect but was told by genesis staff that I should liase with ken holding directly coz I bought it as a completed unit and bought 'as-is'. So I went over to talk to the sales guy who told me that I would need to queue my repairs again, which is a load of bullcrap since the defect was made by your contractors in the first place! Seriously, the front desk people need some training in customer service area. 

I guess I'll get my renovation contractor to repair these instead of waiting for Ken, been 2 mths and still haven't finished repairing...I need to start my construction soon.

I think what they meant was 4R sized and pasted on A4 paper for front and back....not A4 sized photo. Are you going to build the wall replacing the green fence in porch too? Need to get neighbour consent too for genesis...still pening on that coz both my neighbours rented out their house :S
