Where is the sales office that enables prospect to view its masterplan? In denai alam show house or ara damansara showhouse?

i fail to understand the logic of:
1. 20x89 or 20x88 sizes. unless the designer can prove me wrong, i shall await my comments until i sight the plans
2. G&G provisions. with clear demand of G&G products and Sime given the options to begin a new township with a clean slate, i also would puzzle if G&G is not provided for each and every parcel. Furthermore, if Prima is gonna happen here, all the more G&G should be provided.

any ideas on commencement and original 1st launch prices of :
1. bukit jelutong
2. denai alam

from what i recall, bukit jelutong started with quite high prices. around mid 300k? and quite some time ago. maybe 8-10 years back?
in terms of investment, while it didn't fare too badly, neither was it spectacular.

i think denai alam could have fared worse.

but i must admit i am not familiar with these few developments and its pricing. so would appreciate sharing by more experienced people.

Thank you.

walau... really fast and furious.
no details and just suddenly launch like that.

after staff purchases and VVVIP purchases, maybe left 5 units for balloting among thousands of people?
kekeke.

got connection to subang bestari? maybe better to buy subang bestari since price difference easily 200k?

yeah wor.
persiaran atmosfera leads you directly to subang bestari.
i reckon road improvement should be built along the lake and directs you to persiaran cakerawala directly instead of making a loop along persiaran pelangi in the future.
that would also pave the way to have easier access to help college and linkage to future RRI development.
this elmina is much nearer than i thought it would be. using this way, can also skip a toll or two from guthrie. kekeke.
those who bought the commercial shoplots near the help college would stand to gain handsomely if they are able to hold it for some time.

Bbb baby.
At ballot time, phase 1 left 9 units including one decent unit at rm599k.
Phase 2 left 12 units. From 709k onwards.
Phase 3 left 69 units. From >800k onwards.

For own stay, ok lah.

Congrats sd for off loading close to 300 units within 2 days.

Township wise, this is much better than denai alam.

any idea what was the bumi quota for bj?
someone quoted da as 70%.
elmina is 50%.
hence i believe elmina would thrive much faster than DA.
also, i believe elmina location is better than DA.
DA have not so good infra (eg their sales office needs to be a loop under the main ramp) and also a main power transmission line cutting across it.

Can we leave politics out of these discussions pls?

r u sure it's bigger than kwasa?
kwasa spans from sungai buloh industrial area all the way until rrim. and then it spans all the way until subang airport too.

i find it hard to believe that detached houses and bungalows cost more than double of terrace houses.

while it's true that terrace houses enjoy slightly lower cost due to the fact of sharing of walls in between the units, but that alone should not justify doubling the cost.
after all, the main difference between terraces and detached are the land area.
on the other hand, apartments can really vary in terms of cost due to the finishes.

anyway, assuming these datas are indeed correct, it goes to show that construction cost alone for apartments at approx rm150-rm200psf. give or take adding in the ancillary cost such as land cost, consultants' fees, marketing, development cost, contribution to authorities, etc,
so one should have an idea of how much the real raw cost without profit of a project is.

Looks like eliminate is still pretty hot.
Btw, anybody notice subang bestari is constantly on propwall's top 20 list?

it's not under top properties category.
it's under most wanted properties section.

KUALA LUMPUR: Eastern & Oriental Bhd (E&O) has picked the manager of the famed Thai luxury health resort Chiva-Som to run its RM3.5bil wellness-based development Avira in Iskandar Malaysia, said deputy managing director Eric Chan.

“We have signed them on for Avira and will announce the full details soon, including the concept,” he said after a shareholders’ meeting.

The award-winning Chiva-Som in Hua Hin province, which has played host to the Beckhams, is known among spa enthusiasts as one of the world’s top health resorts.

Avira – a joint venture between E&O, Khazanah Nasional Bhd and Singapore’s Temasek – is the Penang-based developer’s first project in Iskandar. It has a land size of 210 acres and fringes a natural mangrove forest.

Chan had previously told StarBiz that the development would contain a 12.5-acre wellness “core”, alongside residential and commercial properties. E&O intends to roll out Avira in the later part of the year.

Meanwhile, Chan said he could not divulge more information on the firm’s proposed Elmina West project until a sale and purchase agreement was firmed up.

E&O had inked a non-binding memorandum of agreement on Wednesday to buy 135 acres of freehold land in the 5,000-acre City of Elmina from a unit of Sime Darby Bhd, its 32% shareholder.

Both parties are targeting to wrap up talks by March next year. E&O is also planning a wellness-themed mixed development there, its second such concept after Avira.

“We are working out the boundaries of the land and will probably acquire it once the conversion and infrastructure are done, which makes sense for us as a master developer,” Chan said.

The Elmina West land, which hugs a forest reserve, marks E&O’s maiden township in the Klang Valley, as well as its first proper collaboration with Sime Darby since the plantation giant acquired a much-hyped 30%-stake in E&O two years ago.

While details of the project remain scant, analysts estimate that it could fetch a gross development value (GDV) exceeding RM1bil, with the purchase price likely in the region of RM200mil.

Sime Darby has nearly sold out Phase 1 of Elmina in Sungai Buloh following a launch in the second quarter this year, at prices ranging from RM600,000 to RM800,000.

The entire City of Elmina has a projected GDV of RM21bil to be developed till 2040.

On Seri Tanjung Pinang 2 – E&O’s massive extension to its seafronting Seri Tanjung Pinang in Tanjung Tokong, Penang – Chan said reclamation works could begin in mid-2014 once it gets the greenlight from the Department of Environment for the RM25bil GDV, 760-acre development.

The detailed environmental impact assessment (DEIA) study is expected to be submitted for approval by the end of the year.

Asked about the risk of non-compliance of the DEIA, Chan said: “All the questions have been raised during the public forum and are being addressed by the report. The authorities will review it and decide from there whether to issue full or conditional approval, or otherwise.”

Seri Tanjung Pinang 2 has received an approval-in-principle from the state government.

Chan also said the company aimed to start sales for its RM250mil GDV Princes House project in central London, featuring 56 residential units, by November.

Although he stayed mum on its selling price, industry observers say the Covent Garden property may cost £1,500 per sq ft.

ho sei liao!

recently got a helicopter view of the entire denai alam and elmina.
elmina is actually quite close to subang bestari which can exit to kota damansara easily.
elmina landbank from the view above is just huge. and further down, other townships by klk, glomac, etc is equally massive.
but it's gonna take some time. and when the time comes, i bet these babies are gonna fly like mad. only concern is the time could be very long. maybe for your next gen?

fly me to the moon
and nvr ever let me go.....

agree to disagree.
one's building highrise all around with some industrial.

the other's banking on landed mostly.

how to compare?

there's a propose road from petronas interjunction near the help college leading back to intersection near Restoran Big Family/ Hotel Forrest Hill.
but dunno when and if it will be completed.

why not? it's cashflow positive wor.

Nice man made lake.
