Sovo...i think ppls ll jus stay there. Seriously we need authority to come in to clear all the question marks here. But who should we approach?

I am sure there are already some SoHo, SoFo, SoVo ...completed and in business...anybody heard of anyone being thrown out for staying in these properties? or got into trouble with the authorities?

Is there any completed SOFO or SOVO in the market already? Would like to know the status too.

If someone buys the property relying on a SA statement that Sofo, Sovo can be used for stay, and if turn out to be otherwise, can one sue for damages against the developer for misrepresentation? Any lawyers here to give your view?

i dont think that is possible coz there's no proof. unless the SA sign an assurance contract with buyer la...

luckily i read somewhere here about sovo/sofo/soho and schedule H... btw, the SA said they r going to launch the serviced apartment somewhere in june 2014 starting from 900k

if I video record the conversation with my smart phone, can i use it as proof?

OMG.... 900k service apartment at Sg Buloh....

selangor dredging pricing

With the RRIM land redevelope soon, this area don't think will be call Sg Buloh anymore.

That's what the SA told me. Maybe she purposely told me big figure so that I will buy the sovo at 700k instead.

So...what it will called?

Another Damansara xxxx...or Saujana xxxx....or Damansara South/West /East/North...

Just use Sg Buloh la...y ? feel so shameful to use own name??

SOVO can used as residence?...hmmm

That's y. The SA confidently assure me... When asked about schedule H, she said dun have but assure me that I can stay de

Developer will rebrand it to sell at premium, like Kota Damansara formerly also part of Sungai Buloh ..

better check with authorities...or can get letter of consent from developer about this matter...

Bcos right now, government still din have any clear guideline about this matter.... u know la...this is boleh-land...
nonsense things always happen... just be careful ...to protect ur right...

yup...agreed....

As a buyer, must be careful...cos developer like to put "premium" name...n the price also premium... but location ...hehehe...

Damansara Damai, Damansara Sutera...also part of Sg Buloh...

There are 2 blocks - one being Service Apartment (to be launched next year), and the current launch with is SOVO. Serviced apartment will be launched at RM800psf - but who knows this might trend down due to the slow down in the market. Both SOVO and Serviced Apartments share the same facilities, and has 3-tiered access, almost like another service apartment.

You need to check out the concept to be able to appreciate the value in this. Compared to Mahsing, you can see this is not another run of the mill development. For instance, SDB has engaged London-based firm CarverHaggard (http://carverhaggard.com/) for The Hub as well as SqWhere, as the architect as well. These are some of their works for SDB in Singapore and would expect the same concept here:-





As for SOVO can stay or not - the House Rules, ie DMC does not state that you can't stay overnight. So again, grey area.

Location...not really apreaciate about it...but building design....no doubt...SDB is one of the top in country....

Gotta agree that the location is far from sexy, I mean, it's Sg Buloh FFK. But if you do drive there along the road now, you can sense it's up and coming, with the hive of construction on the MRT and soon the Kwasaland development, whose first phase will be northern part of the land near SqWhere.

In 4-5 years time, this place will be a different picture.

The fact that there is no standard S & P agreement for SoFo, SoVo and SoHo(???) , could be a source of concern for buyers, who may find themselves in the cold without the protection of HDA. The top of your priority, if you want to buy this category of properties is to buy only from reputable developers with good track records.
