Semenyih?

I dunno Semenyih is good or potential or not.

But I definitely believe this Eco Hill is great, good and potential.  It is a township of it's own.

Do u mean they are putting on future phase for sale today? If i go tomorow can i place a booking for the future phase?

Boss tat means aqualitis is 20x70 build up 1820sf.
Then wat is the build up and the price of the 20x70 tat was already sapued?

the way they plot it,it definitely hinting it's a Mall 
but who knows~

Oh, congrates! Then it seems either Pallida 1 or Pallida 2 also a good buy. Your unit facing NW or SE? I heard facing NW got better privacy after the apartments built up later, true?

Any extra premium for the "ong" house numbers such as "8", "18", "28", "33", "38"?

If I am SP Setia, who really targeted own stay buyers only and not speculators or investors, I would probably do the same strategy.

With a sudden SMS sent at morning and sales on the same day, the buyer who very keen to buy for own stay, will try all his or her best to go there with the hope of securing one unit. It may be a heartbreak for those working but unable to runaway with sudden MC or sudden half day leave or so ...

If they announce the ballot day which falls on 7 days later, investors / speculators would have plenty of time to prepare multiple cheques and asked staffs or volunteers to go que and ballot.

At the end of the day, my thought would be the SPS would be unable to please everyone with the heavy demand against a not so low supply.

But it could be paid off, if the strategy paid off with home buyers really able to secure their units instead of investors / speculators as these group might be feel too mafan, timing too tight, lazy to drive so far in sudden early morning and etc ...

I put myself into the shoe of a potential buyer, if I really wanna buy it for own, since the price is well fair compare to any other new landeds, I would do all my best to skip my work and try to secure a unit for future home.

If I am buying it for investment, I very hopeful to get one but I will put myself off if I needed to go NOW when the SMS arrives at wee hour or early morning.

It's more like 1/3 for staff/business associates only, certain not half.
And don't think we can really tell if it's for own stay or for investment.
I certainly agree that if too many empty units, it would not be good that's why in my opinion SPS did a surprise launch for those who is desperate enough to take leave (and most of them did for those I spoke with) and stayed for the entire session. Most of them that I spoke to wanted for own stay and/or 50/50 not sure yet, seldom purely for investment purpose.

And to be fair to SPS, if they wanted to advertise EcoHill, they could have announced the launching sooner and they sure can get people to camp overnight (or days before) for it thus creating the news about long queue, thousands of people camping there and etc. There were 25000 registered interest, just imagine quarter of it turned out, it would be havoc for the launch for both the interested parties as well for the staff. IMO, I think they did a good job overall launching this phase of the project except needing the purchaser to stay until later night 9pm something regardless of the reasoning.

Not a waste of time for me though as I get to make a few friends there talking about investment as well as the project. 

This is indeed true coz his son kena ballot and bought a DSL!

Is your unit no.7?

Yes only 10% until VP and MOT is covered by SP Setia as well. They did explain the package, you must have missed it.

and cannot be oversea...

Hi All,

Just to share my experience like the other Forummer did earlier during the weekend pursuant to the launch of SEH.

There are both pros and cons in the process which SPS adopted for the launch of SEH. But, having said that, I personally felt that the process was somewhat executed well though there will be flaws in certain areas.
When we received the SMS at 6.45 AM, I rushed to the WC with my cheque book and authorisation letter thinking that we may be allowed to place booking for 2 units (parents wanted one but they had medical checkup and left to hospital before the blast SMS was received).
Upon arrival at 7.45 AM; Yes, I was one of the driver who sped once the traffic light turned green and ran to the queuing area to ensure I am not too far behind.

While queuing for a number, I was warmly welcomed by SPS staff and instructions were given in which I realised, I am only entitled to one unit. Once I got seated and was given number 26, we were told slightly later that, once you have a number, an unit is secured but unit selection will be done once the queue number is given out in full. This is where the chaos started because we were told that we will have to stay overnight for unit selection - however, this was based on the assumption that they would not be getting the full turn out for the launch and hence, to keep the situation calm later when the latecomers come in to find out that there are limited Q numbers or the numbers have been given out.
The rest has been deliberated by the rest over and over again so; let’s not go into details now. Once the barcode was given, we were given adequate briefing in which the unit min price was told so that we can roughly gauge the eligibility and which unit we would like to go for. As Merrum being priced at RM996k and RM1m (still subset of RM800k onwards and RM930k units, buyers were disappointed hence some questioning) but soon calmed down and they were all concentrating on whats to happen after the briefing.

Pros and Cons:
Pros:
1) The blast SMS early in the morning gave opportunity for local residents neighbouring SEH a genuine / realistic chance of owning a unit in SEH. The SMS could have been done slightly earlier or later, but all in all it was a judgement call made by SPS and it certainly gave equal opportunity to all to queue for a unit.
2) The SPS staff did a great job in organising the crowd, queue, registration and the unit selection was at such ease due to ample preparation on the queue day.
3) Upon receiving the Barcode, prospective buyers were allowed to roam around the WC and show houses to select options of units that are to be ranked for unit selection tomorrow. This gave ample opportunity for buyers to get to know their prospective neighbours, reassess their options – to me, this was one of the critical factor to stay on with my choice, knowing whom I am gonna be sharing the village with.
4) The SPS staff improvised over time as the crowd remained pleasant despite some commotion and communicated much in sync as the day came to a close – some staff were nice to actually convey the almost accurate plan for the rest of the day despite all the red flags. Staffs went out of their comfort zone to ensure that customers are well treated while we were there.

And special mention has to go to the young sales chap, Michael for his outstanding service to all customers from all age group – having to repeat the same answers and having to face the wrath due slight unprofessionalism displayed by other SA, he took it all on his chin and continued to serve his customers with such passion; such a wonderful display of dedication to his job.

Cons:
1) The SPS staffs, not all of them were well briefed about the process causing variation in speech / message delivered creating confusion and agitation among prospective buyers. Nevertheless, they improvised overtime.
2) Some SPS SA did treat us like dirt as if we were there to get a house on FOC. Ignorance was bliss in these cases.
3) They asked all of us to stay back and continued to reiterate that it was to protect their reputation in the event that a mishap occurs was pure BS – they just wanted to hype the project and also ensure that all food orders had sufficient takers so that it won’t go to waste, esp. dinner and supper as crowds that did not get the number begun to disperse.

Summary:
I met few wonderful couples investing for a brighter future in SEH, mainly for security purposes, buyers from City such as Subang moving over for the tranquility and peace of the location. People with great insights assisting the undecided buyers to firm up their decision and the pleasure of meeting all the future neighbours. It is poised to be a great neighbourhood.
However, some are pure investors – even if they claim that they are not. But some Semenyih residents aren’t aware of what’s happening in their vicinity and came only after the crowd build up – to find out about the project and be disappointed with the failure to own one as DSL started at RM408k – to me, affordable.
Lastly, my decision was affirmed upon finding out that Tiara South 2 ½ Storey Link house with some water and led gimmick in the back lane of the house was going for RM940K. To me, a worthy buy. To those who missed out, 2nd phase for investment is good as you won’t need such strong holding power in comparison to phase 1.
