Mot for serviced apt take years. Even after VP the Mot may not even take place.. so relax..

So MRT will be running before Ekocheras Vp...



KUALA LUMPUR: Mass Rapid Transit Corp Sdn Bhd (MRT Corp) has spent about RM4bil on the Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), which has reached progress rate of 28.55%.

CEO Datuk Wira Azhar Abdul Hamid said MRT Corp had raised some RM6.4bil from its sukuk issuance.

In addition, he said MRT Corp has been paying its contractors on time and has pushed its contractors to submit certificate of completion and compliance in order for them to claim payment.

“The contractors are not unhappy. They are paid on time. We have not received one complaint,” Azhar said in an update briefing on the MRT yesterday.

He estimated the cost for construction and systems for the Sungai Buloh-Kajang line project at RM23bil.

Azhar said RM3.1bil was initially expected to be spent for land acquisition cost. However, the Government saved some RM1.5bil as MRT Corp signed mutual agreement to co-exist, without acquiring some properties.

On risk of cost overrun, Azhar said it remained a concern for MRT Corp. “We monitor our risk every day. It is a daily concern for us.”

He noted that its project delivery partner, MMC-Gamuda KVMRT (T) Sdn Bhd, was also responsible for on time delivery and cost.

Azhar said he was satisfied with the progress of the 51km MRT line so far.

“We are on track to begin operation of phase one between Sungai Buloh and Semantan stations by Dec 31, 2016 and the remainder of the line from Semantan to Kajang by July 31, 2017,” he said.
Nevertheless, Azhar said he would like to see better progress of the project to “build enough buffer” in case it encountered any problem in the later stage of the project.

In total, MRT Corp has awarded 68 of the total 86 Klang Valley MRT packages.

Azhar said the remaining 18 packages has a total value of RM2bil, adding that out of the 18, five packages have been called and was currently in progress.

MRT Corp project director Marcus Karakashian said five tunnel-boring machines were currently in operation and has been performing well with good tunnelling rate.

Thats what we're hoping for.....

Let's hope so.
Don't know how long an enough buffer is...

Hurry .... Limited units for Tower E.... !

ya.. heard the news.. hopefully on track

Watch out for rhe highly anticipated launch of block N coming end of next mth.

DDDMBBB !!!

Gr price comparison to sunway velocity, ekocheras is abt rm400psf cheaper than sunway velocity. Both also freehold n enjoys direct connectivity with the MRT.

Velocity selling point is the mall

Nusmetro the developer of Arte+ should get thumbs up for creative design. They produce the best building n ID. Similar to Arte@Subang West.

Ecin kor, txs 4 updating om TRX. Lots of residential high rise buildings n office blocks. Sunway velocity was trying 2 sell their resi block hinging on their proximity to TRX. But fr TRX master plan I noticed thr r sufficient resi blocks to support the expats working thr. No need to even rent fr sunway velocity. I drove past trx last week. Noticed their construction progress v slow n fr their master plan the project supposed 2 complete by 2017. Fat chance.

5 stations from Leisure Mall station

Ekocheras does not hv a mall like sunway or midvalley mall. Instead it is lined with retail shoplots. Total retail gross area is 1m while nett lettable space is 650k sq ft.

http://www.theedgemalaysia.com/business-ne...-projects-.html

MD of Ekovest said "We have yet to decide when to launch the commercial properties". If have intention to own managed, the statement should read "We have yet to decide on the plans for the commercial properties" not "when to launch"

Reading between the lines and based on most developer mindset, they will sell. Managing retail is high risk venture with high holding cost

Hua Yang also said they will managed the One South Street Mall, but after all residential sold, start to sell the retail, and able to fetch higher price with sales tagline, with so many residential next to and above, the retail sure do well with captured market

Upto us which version to believe, hehe...

Any comments from all taikor?

outdated news

Boss, my bad...Captain also informed that Leng Lui SA said decided no more selling the commerical alredi

Good for Ekocheras as I also vested...they should announce which retail management company they will be appointing to boost buyer confidence

This post has been edited by CMW123: Nov 9 2013, 01:55 PM

Good to hear the decision.
To me, even if the commercial is sold, there is still a mrt element to hold on to.
In case the mrt project is cancelled, l will still believe the signature towers by the Jln Cheras and walking distance to leisure mall is enough for me.

if they can get Aeon express (like the one found in axis soho/residence) as tenant, that will be icing on the cake

seems like u got a lot of buffer ho.... and yeah, that's what the leng lui sa told me regarding the commercial part, but can't be too sure....who knows....
but if they decide to sell also i got lots of friend's who're waiting like wolves....lol

Source from contractor is revamping the whole plan to change to mall concept .
Seems like they are serious to change to mall !

yes, they need a good partner.. coz they dont have experience in mall management

huh? source from contractor? who's the contractor may i know?

and also if they wanna change, maybe just change the retail without touching the residential then i think maybe doable..... but if wanna touch those already sold units.....den i dont think so bah...... and why would they wanna change it to mall concept if they already sold out their soho's and service apartment? make no sense to me.... of course if they were to change it without increasing the cost then it'll be the best for all buyers including me....

Just curious, since s&p is not done, are the terms and conditions in booking form of BlkH&J, saying developer can relocate or take back?

technically they can.. since these additional elements are not in booking form

Juz now dropped by showroom.. block j confirmed there is price increase.. for my unit around 15k up.. I calculated its around 2% increase.. but sa told me 4 to 5%.. did any bosses here calculate?

But sold out Ady how to increase? Or increase for what....lol

Who knows got dropped off units again .. haha

For syok sendiri only..

it is pretty normal, many developer even straightly wiped out the price of sold units, psychological effect, no choice

Agreed. Surprise to see soo many resi in trx

I am sceptical on the delivery of TRX....high risk high gain investment requiring those with big guli to go in

Launching soon? How much?

Tower J owners- SA told me SnP will be signing next month. Not sure how true this is as they keep delaying.

This post has been edited by soon9913: Nov 10 2013, 03:45 PM

too much at the same time.. need to buy a few more printers.

Banker told me they using one lawyer only...sure very slow...

I am predicting that blk E 's snp is even later. Not sure if that impacts dibs loan......

It is said early next year, I'm happy with it

dont worry la..
but if spa also delay.. imagine handover time.. just brace yourself and set expectation accordingly

Dunno why I'm quite confident with ekocheras....like no need marketing no need advertisement then sold out....it's like good things don't really need to hard sell kind of feeling....

I think spa delays and delivery of vp are two different things. Spa is depend on lawyer while delivery of vp is depend on Ekovest construction sdb bhd.

Also this is 48 months project which have extra 12 months buffer compare to other condo projects.

Then no need so fast apply loan or what?

If you are 70% ltv, next year apply also can...
But you are open to risk to bnm policy, they could set 3rd property ltv only 50% or, go back to 90%?
Or blr increase 1% then bank offer package like blr -2.7...
