What is the owner group for?

One word, it keeps you “sane”.

You won’t think you are encountering the entire worlds problem on your own. Also, developer won’t think you are a crazy mental person who keep complaining and giving feedback non-stop as though u have been in the construction line for ages.

The Concerto and the KM1E owner group, which I am part of, I have seen many advantageous and I am willing to share my experience with everyone. From the moment you receive your VP letter to the defects in your parcel and the all-important common area defects.

Example:-

For parcel defects: people don’t realize the same problem can actually be replicated throughout the development. For instance, in one of the group, initially we all thought the “sunken bath” leakage was an isolated issue. The developer started to korek here and there to patch the leak, this turned out to be a complete fail and the leak continued. This was conveyed to the group. In the end, after much pressure, it was decided that the sunken bath required to be replaced in its entirety.

Common area defect, one of the most neglected and uncared for subject matter even though its provided in the SPA. One of our biggest catch, we found out that the lift for various blocks were faulty.

Extracted from FY31 March 2016 Annual Report


TWY@Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur
TWY@Mont Kiara, which is the first phase of our project at Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur, comprises of 484 units of furnished all-duplex condominiums. The GDV for this project is about RM430 million, and sales-to-date has been very encouraging, with a take-up rate of almost 90%. We are completing the sub-structure works, and have awarded
the super-structure construction job.

Yes, with symphony life everything is double.

Double the defects, double the investment failure, double the maintenance fees, double the water leakage, double the structural problems, double the poor management and double the lies.

Owners group up and fight for yourselves.

I think it's pretty common for any development to have defects but to make sweeping statements without any basis... i think is unfair to the developer... perhaps u can share with us?

Hi aurora97, about the sunken bath, how developer "replaced in its entirety"? hack tiles and rebuild or install some kind of fibreglass tub? thanks for sharing  notworthy.gif
*
hack, re-do waterproofing and rebuild.

that's the correct way of doing it.

Initially when the problem first arise, they did it in piecemeal basis...

(a) first they redo the outlet (floor);

(b) then they took out the toilet accessories because they thought leak came from there...; and

© then they thought pipe was leaking, so they hack the side of the wall.

in the end they realize only one solution. hack everything.

hahahahahahahaa thumbsup.gif

I am not referring to defects alone, a person has to be ill informed in this subject if he thinks I'm making sweeping statements about this so called developer.

Those who bought from Symphony Life knows what I mean.

And to those who are paid or intimidated into refuting me by falsely claiming they have bought from this developer and have experienced something other than endless problems, you have my deepest condolences.

So many others in lowyat net have shared too many horror stories about this developer, so I don't feel right stealing their moments.  I thank you for your reply.

I just recently VPed two condominium both KM1E (Berjaya) and Concerto (BCB). Defects alone, I clocked in close to 200 parcel defects for each condo.

Also, for common area defects, well asked those from KM1E and you know what a tough nut Berjaya is.

So please do enlighten everyone in the group rather than just saying Symphony Life is bad.

I have written extensively about both developments in the following forum thread:-

By quoting other equally bad developers doesnt make sym life better.....

Berjaya lion and few more.......i will never touch....

You need to understand why i responded in such a way. Please read what and who i was responding to before you quote me piecemeal.

Atm, all i see is bad, bad and bad but what is bad? No Description of it.

I said some developers r bad, example i said i encountered numerous parcel defects but the person concern only mention bad this and bad that. So what is actually bad? rclxub.gif

you can use search engine here and www to look for how bad is sym life....

I read their puchong project.....masterplan not implemented..and their workmanship is not exactly Malaysia 1st class.
before sym life their name was Bolton I think.

Before you even ask and when I posted my question, I have already done my homework. I even responded to the thread (but on something else).

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4016705/+20

Why I ask such a question and further elaboration is because the thread posters allegations are very serious and bordering defamatory (or is). There’s a wall of text but very few visual or credible information to back up what was said.

Also, a lot of developers work is not exactly first class. From SP Setia (bridge collapse in mid valley?), Mah sing (Icon tongue.gif) and so on…

If a purchase want first class… be prepared to pay first class pricelor.

Hi, i always worry abt joining any so called "Owner Group" as:-
a) how do i verify the administrator is also a owner ?! hmm.gif
b) don't want to endup on the list as shown below ?! innocent.gif
*
A) yes, i am the administrator and i am not an owner in Twy. My relative is. I am helping her with her defect when it comes to VP.

Enforcing the SPA and defect rectification are areas that you simply can't do alone. I remember doing this for Concerto and KM1E.

Also, if you look at the threads that i post, i dont sell or resell info. I am more interested in condo developments.

B) you join at your own risk. I never asked anyone for their details (except mobile). Its based on trust. Any property agent or developer agent will not be invited and kicked.

Despite the risk, all i can see are people sharing info, like how fast is the progress, loan billings etc...

When is the intended VP?

Memory kind of fugly on this but do read your SPA.

Typically it is 36 months from SPA Date.

For TWY is 48 months. Becareful if you are offered 54 months extension cause some owners mentioned they signed this. You will lose your LAD, if there is delay on developers end.

There is a difference. The article you posted, the developer apply to housing ministry to extend the VP date. Fortunately, the Court decided that the housing ministry did not have such power to amend the SPA.

However, what is happening here is... when a new buyer wants to buy a property, when you sign the SPA, they will give you a side letter amending your SPA.

Make sure you read what your signning.

the 'typical' ones are for residential land.

not sure if this is commercial land.
*
Oh yeah, if i recall correctly, TWY is situated on a commercial land.

For commercial properties, the SPA under HDA - Schedule H does not apply. As such, some terms might deviate. For residential however, they must follow to the letter.

ThT bring said, with regards to "commercial terms" like price, amenities etc... they r typically populated by the developer. If i am not wrong this will include the number of months because certain residential developer say 1,000 units n above may take longer time to complete.

That is roughly my understanding but i will differ it to the experts....

As long as developer building residential units sch H applied and protected underr hda.
Just that rates and tarriff under commercial rate.

The extention of 36mths started when kl started to put lorry restriction in and out of city. Furthermore these days service apartments are counted by thousand units and not hundred anymore
