Hi Condoliza,

Thanks for following my sharings.
I'm not a pro but a newbie in reno and just try to post my journey and some info according to my experience.
If you guys need further details on certain things pls feel free to voice out, will try to answer if i know, otherwise other LYN sifu can helps too.

Me too was eyeing the Saujana area before I purchased this unit. I nearly bought a unit at Amaya Saujana but the agent coudn't get me a non-west-facing unit that time...

Yes Amaya is nice ..as  long as not facing Nova lol....anyhow i ended up in Bungaraya which is older but a nice environment.only c.1700 sqft..but still quite a lot to do!

Looks like you are  on the last legs of your marathon ..sure looks like it will be super !

1. indirectly u are fueling the speculation by agreeing & accepting the price.

2. depends how u see it. Demand for housing is always there, but affordability & sensibility is not there. Housing built up is getting smaller & smaller, govern by GFA per sq ft which you are very familiar with it. If you notice, developer is going to suburban area or outstation to build more affordable housing, in line with local authorities & govt.

3. Singapore, although their land is much smaller than KV, but their HDB flats/apt are regulated & control, not under open tendering but application. If you compared singapore & m'sia, in terms of increase of properties MYR vs SGD respective countries, theirs is quite constant increase, but not in KL.

i could go on and on, but happy reno your house..

Got any photos of the lock ears for your gate? Looks like the design not that good.

The photos are in my previous post#425.
It will be fixed with an auto gate system, hence it doesn't comes with the sliding bolt lock...the ears are for additional pad lock if needed...
Can you help me to explain further if you happened to spot anything wrong?

Fantastic sharing! Indeed helpful for those who are embarking their renovation journey like myself. Looking forward to your collapsible grille.

very good information being shared.  maybe can curi some idea from you.. hehe.. nice house.. im waiting for some paperwork before i can start renovating.. but definitely not looking at 200-300k for renovating.. 

The multifolding door at the kitchen was installed yesterday. It is by Reliance Home which I signed them up in a fair.
When I signed up in the fair, it was RM72/sqft (with hidden hinges and RM2 extra for colour glass).

Later when the Reliance guy came for site measurement, he asked if I want the hidden hinges or the otherwise. He told me that the folding door is gonna be exactly the same except for some actually not-so-obvious kinda hinges. After some considerations, we've chosen the latter @RM65/sqft, 6.38mm laminated clear glass instead of colour glass. Hence, it's a good RM567 savings in the pocket. 

Mind you that Reliance Home's products do not come with subframe. Some main cond might not prefer this method...
There were only 2 installers, a Chinese and an indonesian worker.

Just in a glance only(forget about the autogate), I see the ears are facing outside. For main door, it shall be facing inside or you add a top cover. This is to hold the thief for a while.

Why not using tempered glass for better security ?

Laminated glass is suppose to be more secure and suitable here. Pls refer to link below for more info and explanations :

Ok ok...i surrender...it's my bad fueling the speculation...me no good~~    
I shouldn't have bought this house. I should buy it further away....if the suburb house prices also speculated to 2 fold already now, I shoudn't buy it too...otherwise I will be speculating the suburb housing price and affect the suburb ppl who can't afford the new housing price....

Then, I should just rent...
oops, not good also...coz I will be then fueling the investor's pocket and indirectly fueling the housing speculation again...........     

You finally got it right. We are here to follow TS's renovation progress. We read too many of other stuff you mentioned in Property thread but definitely we don wish to see it here again ...

Love your reno TS ... can't wait to see your finished product.

Oh lucky... the ears are actually facing inside...I will go there and take another clearer pic later...
Thanks anyway for pointing it out, newbie like me sometimes don't have much experience to spot if any mistakes from vendors...
