There is not nothing to do with government fund to develop Kwasaland. The only fund they need is to complete the mrt 1 on time. The development will be carry out by private developer such as brdb, mrcb, uem, parkcity, e&o, sime darby.... . Basiacally epf is selling off the land for profits...

Yes, please post up which legal law said sovo can't have bed and stay overnight?

95% sold, the cheapest available is 470k before discount...

Few things to look at it :
1) SDB bought the land price for around rm200 psf. While mrcb bought kwasa land average at rm800 psf. Do u think mrcb kind enough to sell any future launch at cheaper than sqwhere price ?
2) For sqwhere and dsara, the location of mrt is confirm. And the site of this 2 development is also confirm just directly opposite of the mrt station with cover link bridge. As for mrcb future launch we never know whether there will be such development with just opposite of mrt station and comes with link bridge or direct integrated. Mrcb might reverse that part for super development such as shopping mall, A class office, theme park....
3) From the past record how do u rate development carry out by SDB as compare to mrcb?? Which one are more premium in terms of their development?
4) Accessibility for sqwhere is better if you wanted to access nkve or North South highway.
5) MRT 2 is speculated start from sg Buloh as well which is just 1 station away from this sqwhere mrt 1 station. Although it is not direct line for mrt2, but it is just merely 1 station away...

Factory Gallery
Industrial estate gallery
A gallery in an industrial district in Kuala Lumpur. Inspired by the adjacent industrial estate - which includes informal furniture factories, lush greenery, and surprising public spaces - the gallery is designed as a series of separate volumes within a semi-permeable enclosure.

The exhibition spaces are accommodated in a series of separate steel-framed sheds with a highly glazed ground level. A wall of hollow concrete industrial ‘vent blocks’ and a covered walkway links the sheds together and creates a sheltered garden at the centre.

A hand-woven rope pavilion in the garden creates a space sheltered from the sun, enabling people to meet and enjoy the garden.

There are some unsold units hold by agent. SDB units all sold out already. That is why 97%. I heard The Hub even worst. Agent took about 100 units , they only manage to sell 20-30% only.

Nope, it's not 900psf. The price is 405k for 549sft. It's less than 750psf.

As I know agent still have units. First of all, where you got info expat cannot rent soXo? Secondly, not necessary this kind of of investment only meant for expat.

Izzit wise to compare now ? VP date only in 2019, you have crystal ball to predict what's going to happen then. Well, I work in MNC O&G too. I can see many still have no issue renting soxo. So what is the truth ?

Sqwhere only have 2 blocks, the one sold out is the office block, sovo. Another block is purely service apartment which going to launch in August it seems. Sizes are bigger than 1000 sqft for sure.

They make the cube taller and sell as office suites range from 2000 sft. It is bigger office compare to sovo block. But the lower floor I guess it is still cater for F&B

Why should the future SA buyer happy but sovo buyer should be depressed?

It's always been a grey area even for so call purely residential. Strictly speaking, if it's residential, by right it's only for residential activities. Still people are use that to reply emails, work from home, calling clients from home, faxing from home. By right all this activities is prohibited in purely residential since it is clearly a business or commercial activities where taxes and utilities fees should be higher. Have u ever seen official raid into house due to this reasons?
Same case for soxo, it's going to be flexible use where no one can stop you putting a beds in your working place. Just the same as no one will stop you putting a fax machines at home.
Even some owners now are using third condo, house whatever purely residential title for airbnb. Does it legal? Strictly its not , cause you are delivering income from renting out as short term. Just like hotel, hostel which are operating as commercial. In fact this are violating the laws more than an office mix use as residential. Don't forget, soxo owners are paying commercial rates which is higher for taxes and utilities. So what's the fuss and issues if owners want to use it for mix use?
Those pure residential that use to do commercially activities is the one that violating the laws.

Yes, you should actually before authorities catch you doing "business" or commercial activities in your purely residential units. Clearly you are evading tax by using residential rates for mix use that have commercial elements.
