haha.. am browsing Selayang property and see you here again. hihi!!!
speaking from a Selayang resident of over 15 yrs, only Selayang mall is surviving... I won't say it's great but it's ok, still operating but so so only.
Mydin behind Selayang Mall attracted more customers though!
Selayang Capitol, previously Summit is gone (but recently saw some repainting activitiy at the side entrance, unsure what's their next plan though)
It's just not a place for mall as the spending group is not here. More Malays here making Mydin, Warta a better shopping place for them.
Engtex is building another mall beside Hospital Selayang but I doubt it too.
where are you staying? Are you familiar with this area?

Agree the info is quite limited at the moment since this is just the first preview. Talking to one officer (not the sales executive) knowing they are quite committed looking for the partners to get into the mall. The unit facilities are quite standard. Price from 360k to 400k+.

Yes, Holiday Villa is confirmed in. AEON will be Maxvalue, pacific mall [U]will be in. In the discussion is bowling center, and GSC. Probably the retailers will consider the place due to the HV which may bring in some crowd apart from Selayang locals. The rest will be those fast food chain restaurants, e-service banking, clothes, telco etc...

My opinion is once all these confirmed, the price will definitely increase. Probably this can be seen during official launching. Confident level to such a project is 50-50 at this moment. Saw quite a lot of booking during this preview.

Many projects ard selayang area is shop-house+ condo and pure condo basis. Selayang mall and capitol are mall-basis. Star City could be a bit different. Let's see. The developer introduced similar concept at PJ and it has been fully sold off.

The development in Selayang is a bit less compare to other areas. To the north there are more hill area compare to southern part of Selangor. However, the growth of population and value in property in Selayang or Selangor North is at positive side.

Just get to know also the MRT Line 2 will include Selayang in plan. There would be at least one station in Selayang as the MRT corp estimated huge population from this area. Due to the MY gov's culture, probably we may not see the expected station by 2020 but it is just time matter. No one can confirm the location of Selayang MRT station however it is very close to Star City in proposal as the area is located in between Selayang Jaya/Utama/Intan Baiduri and Baru/MPS/Hospital Selayang.

Talking about the Selayang property and Star City, there are few condos newly built in this area lately. Not forgotten the Emerald 2 which is main competitor of Star City. However, E2's concept is street-mall. It is common to see Rm600k+ condo in Selayang nowadays. The landed second-hand property eg terrace house is priced in the range of 600k to 1.2m. With many developers slowing down the pace for launching new condo due to BN policy and coming GST, it did cool down market for a short while. Once this buffering period is over, the investor and buyer will go on hunting the property. Major cause is due to the growing number of population aged 30-40 yrs old who need to own house in these years. Comparing to other developing countries nearby, there are still room for the property value of MY to grow.

SC offers relatively smaller unit with denser population. This is against those who have get use to condo unit with 1000 to 1200sqf. in addition, the management fee of 0.35-0.40 is at a bit high side with commercial status in title. However, some people manage to convert the utility under schedule H. I am not too sure if it is really feasible. 624sqf is preferred unit and based on the layout, 2 bedrooms can be ideally set up. The mall will start to operate end of 2015, hotel will be opened 2016/17. We can say the developer leaves one block for later development as "testing water" or it can be defined as "making larger profit" if things go expected at that area. Not forgotten also the EcoSky in Jalan Ipoh also left one block of area for future launching. We cant justify the confident level based on such plan.

If not mistaken, it is not Holiday Inn. The name is Holiday Villa.

Just an update from my friend.
He almost booked a unit in Selayang Springs. Lucky for him.
He still keep track of the progress of that project, so he knows abit.
According to him, not the developer cabut. It is the Main Con who has cabut!!
This Main Con was invited to take over some other lousy contractor last time.
In the end, they also cabut. 

And if not mistaken, the drawdown for Selayang Springs is almost at 50%.
So, like it or not, purchasers are paying RM300++ each month for the interest of loan (not yet even paying principal).
Really pity Selayang Springs purchasers. Hopefully some other contractor can take over the job and finish it.

Even if they come, it will be very small operation that may have little impact... Giant could be more suitable candidate....since Aeon nowadays prefer to build their own premise like BBT, metro prima, etc...

Really pity Selayang Spring buyers. Building up to almost roof. Painting done halfway liao....

2,775 units.

Many commenters should read the entire thread.

Agree. Location wise, surrounded by factories and low cost flat. Sorry for being rude here.
As of today, total four blocks, which they are launching two blocks now. Maybe test market first. The two blocks are now 10% sold, not that optimistic.

Why Selayang Springs suddenly abandoned?
