Just went to the showroom yesterday, 1227sf, md floor (around 20th floor) is 880k before discount. Block A, B and F (only facing lake) is 13% discount, then Block F units facing facilities only 10% discount.

When I went to the sales gallery last month, I really considered buying it. I was looking forward to buy my first property, and especially attracted to those low entry cost ones. For me the location is good because the location is quite close to the city center (only 15min without jam), high discount, comes partially furnish, which should work for me since I cannot afford to fork out the big amount of money for d/payment + renovation.

I was already preparing my documents for loan submission (I have not pay booking fee), and at the same time doing a lot of research about the property, and decided that its a no go for me, for a few reasons:

1. The incinerator that's only 2km away, of which completion is also on 2018, same with Lakeville
2. The total number of units is just too damn high. Yes, its a big land area, but all sharing common facilities???
3. The lower cost condo right next to Block F
4. The rubbish dump
5. Its weird that Mah Sing is throwing lots of discounts everywhere, could be due to their cashflow problem. On their defence the rights issuance by Mah Sing seems to be very successful (at least according to The Star newspaper), but then you only issue rights when you have cashflow problem right?

Got Zeta@One South by Huayang

Zeta@One South

Hey I am also very much a newb, but here's some input about Zeta against Lakeville on my personal view.

Better than Lakeville:
- Only RM 1,000 booking
- cheaper psf, mine is about 577psf after discount
- Has a private lift lobby area
- Part of the mixed development i.e. Greenz, Parc, Street Mall is fully completed, chances of incompletion is much lower.
- I get to look at the other completed units, roughly can benchmark Zeta as well
- Low rise only 104 units (although for the whole mixed development, is also about 2000 units)

Same as Lakeville:
- Leasehold
- 2 Car Park, free 1 year maintenance fee(around the same 0.35psf), free loan legal and snp, stamp duty etc (only thing need to pay is the strata title thingy, which is about 15k depending on the size, and we pay after completion)
- Completion year = 2018


Lakeville is better:
- Lakeville comes with furnitures, Zeta is bear unit (only free aircon)
- Lakeville more facility and have jogging track, Zeta has all the standard ones only (but i actually prefer the infinity pool concept at Zeta, and its shared only amongst 104 units

Just my two cents... hope that helps a bit happy house hunting

Yes 1000 booking 10% rebate.
How many acre I don't know, not as big as Lakeville but each got own facilities.
Zeta selangor address I think, I'm not familiar with lakeville area so I don't know but surely lakeville closer to city and hence a better location.
Zeta got mrt cross the highway to be completed in 2022, not sure rumour or confirmed, check out the zeta forum.
