I tried it the other day - < 15 mins drive from cyberjaya setia eco glades to IOI Resort City Mall via SKVE.
Good value to the cyberjaya buyers.

If you don't mind staying in condo, you may consider Puteri Palma Condo. I've been there before, very nice and well maintained condo. My friend previously stayed in Cheras, he moved there (he works in KL) and he uses MEX travels to work everyday.

Try it yourself - SEG proposed interchange to Jln Tun Razak = 18 mins at 90km/hr.
My best record, ~10 mins. LOL

To me the nearest condo with IOI mall would be dwiputra residences...already try to drive from there and it just takes about 5 minutes to reach this mall..besides many upcoming shoplot in P15 which make this presint more lively in future....

Pass-by there just now, it's Dwiputra Residences by SP setia. That place is 4-5 minutes drive from IOI city mall.

Where is this interchange? SEG over budget.

They are clearing land to build another access road. The new condo will be build near puteri palma and the hills on the way to putrajaya. Indicative price is above rm 500 ++ persqft but leasehold. Better buy puteri palma which is still around rm400 per sqft and freehold and is meant to be a high end condo . I was told they will build an underground tunnel from pp to the ioi city mall.

I brought one unit in puteri palma condo two years ago for investment. My opinion puteri palma the location quite ok if want go kajang, serdang, puchong or seri kembangan also not very far...just the condo design and the facilities not as luxury as they advertise..just the price of the unit.. luxury price.. but undeniable the view of the condo is amazing that made me brought a unit there..

Mind sharing the price u bought ( psf)?. My uncle bought 1 unit at blok a at rm300 psf from ioi on oct last year. He likes the peacefull environment of the place but complaining the maitenance at 25cents psf too high.

Once IOI city mall completed, we expect many middle east tenants from heritage condo (beside the mines) to relocate to puteri palma condo. This ioi city mall is bad news to nearby malls such as alamanda and mines .

I brought block j I think I brought rm 410 psqft. True the maintenance is too high for the facilities there..

Bad news to puteri palma owner as well if the middle east tenants and the african tenants move to puteri palma. Because the rental will drop. two years ago puteri palma very less middle east tenant and no african at all. Now more of them moving in causing korean, china and other western europe country move out from there. Two years ago can easily rm3k above rental for medium or big unit but now the rental is like below 3k. Going to big headache for me when my tenant going to move out end of this year.

Thanks for the info.

This trend cannot be avoided. Our government is doing a lousy job in attracting quality foreign investers from western countries and north asia. Most foreign owned manufacturing companies had relocated to china or thailand or vietnam. Hence now we are being flooded with middle east and africans who are hijacking a lot of condoss in klang valley. Managing a country is just like managing a mall - you will attract low quality tenants with poor management.

When did you buy at the price rm 410 psqft?
How's the environment at night, i.e got proper lighting installed since the place so quiet?
I'm worried about the safety.

Safety wise is not a problem. The main problem with this condo is the high maintenance fee, lack of local food /chinese schools /kindergarden within 2 km radius, feeling of complete boredom / lack of activities etc. Hope things will change for the better with the completion of the mall.

There's one kindergarten inside Puteri Palma Condo, it's located at block G. There are expats who are doing post-grad in UPM, sending their children to this kindy. They do not stay here actually.

I pay 19cents/psft (including sinking fund), I think it's still reasonable.

They even started constructing a flyover sort of to get to the mall directly from the kajang highway, it looks promising but then again anythings promising after what Alamanda had to offer, people only go there since got no other options.

think around 2-3 years back I think. nite time environment okok..proper lighting is installed but still can add some more in certain area just that unit facing the mall will have some noise pollution due to now the construction still going on during nite time other than that quite peaceful and windy at night.

safety wise can say quite safe just heard this year got one break in case in block g. due to the construction going on the mall many foreign construction around that area and the whole condo area that is not proper fenced u can just walk in the resident area.. After the mall ready think will be better.
