Can Clio walk over to the mall?

I would say no. My EU colleagues will say yes as they love to walk long distance under the hot sun.

If drive, then few mins only.

Wah, walking distance to the ioi phase 2 mall. Didn't know that. When is phase 2 mall ready?

Ya, internal staff sapu the cheaper units. The bigger units are just pricey. Friday onwards should be open to public/registrants.

Phase 2 of the mall should start construction by mid next year. Same goes to The Connexion (across The Clio), will be launch by mid next year as well. But according to the SA, the earthwork and piling has already started.

The Connexion will be a mixed development comprised of 4 storey retail outlets (mostly F&B) and high density (1000+ units) residential tower but of smaller size compared to The Clio. IINM, the sizes are 750 sqft, 950 sqft and 1200 sqft. Pricing is not yet determined.
*
That's good to know. Once Clio VP, the phase two mall would be almost there or completed. Something to look forward to and I'm wondering how walkable the distance would be. tongue.gif

I'm also curious why the Connextion retail is so close to the mall. There would be some competition, right?

Sales person says 1 KM from City Mall Phase 2. If Phase 2 launches that is.

If you're planning on buying smaller units, I think Sunday will be bit late.
*
Did you book a unit?

1km is not walking distance as claimed by the advertisement. blink.gif

I like the golf facing view. United view is ok and more quiet.

Yes, I have been there to scout the project site. It is no accessible by roads yet. And I also saw the flyover, almost completed. Personally, I don't think that I'm gonna walk to the mall, especially under the hot sun.
*
Yup, agree on this. Sales person says phase 1 mall is about 2km and phase 2 about 1km from Clio. They shouldn't advertise as walking distance IMO.

QUOTE(ibbrio @ Aug 16 2014, 09:28 AM)
how to compare? unless you compare address? putrajaya VS cyberjaya?
clio leverage on this huge shopping mall. i see this as the only selling point.
cyberjaya past launches all mainly target students and working professionals apart from people who buy to stay despite not working there or for retirement
could clio target uniten students? is it within walking distance to uniten from the back view unit?
*
Clio leverages on mega mall, golf course & resort environment and future township. All under one developer. The planning is more controlled. I'm not sure if the target is students unless they are rich. If the mall is successful and with the offices, then there is potential tenants there.

Cyberjaya has lot of launches already. I think maybe a bit too much and need to be careful in choosing the right product & location. I would still be interested to get one here but I can bide my time.

Ace Ranger, you are right. Too bad entry cost is high.

ruben7389, morning had some people but not a big frenzy. Probably due to the rain also.

I took a snapshot of the sales chart around 11am.Attached Image

Edit: Ai, how to flip the pic? Using my phone now. sad.gif

Type C all gone.

Type B left 2 at about 12 pm.

Type A about  9 left.

Only Type D are plentiful.

Oh, some good news. Water and TNB rates are residential rates, said one sales person.

And a little bird told me that prices went up between 1-2% on Friday night. tongue.gif
*
Thanks for the info. Did you buy?

I doubt it is residential rates as the SA have always said it is commercial rates. Maybe they will help convert once VP.

Hmm, didn't check the prices yesterday. If 1-2% increase on already high prices imo, then really shocking.gif .

ibbrio did u buy?

quiet because of either 2 reasons:
1. buyers are very senior, do not know the existence of this forum
2. there's nothing to discuss, just wait for the mall to open doors. They are lurking in other topics
*
Probably #2. I can't wait for the mall to open. Got quite nice tenants from their FB.

Next ioi launching should be the Connextion. If launch after gst, will be priced higher, right?

With regards to GST, I think that current new developments/projects have already factored in the increase of materials prices. GST will be launched next year and this project will need 3 years for construction, but the contractors won't buy all the materials they need now. They will buy it in stages as well. So, any price effects due to GST must be factored in right now, or else their margins will be lower.
*
Yes, that's true. I was referring to projects launched after GST implementation. There may be hidden costs that cause the property prices to go up. I hope not; but I don't have enough info on gst.

ibbrio, you planning to get one in ioi resort? smile.gif

just?? finally you bought a unit of clio?
which type?
which floor and price?
*
Type C, mid-level floor, $620800 selling price.
Wanted lower floors but most taken already.
For own keep/stay unless my plan changes. 3 years still a long way to go.

Btw, need input from you taikors. Mbb offered me Islamic loan but I'm thinking to ask them change to conventional loan as it would be easier for me to understand. I haven't seen the LO (they would be preparing it) or sign it yet but I better inform them tomorrow. What do you guys/ladies think?

eh??
how did you get that type?
i thought you were still thinkin earlier and type C was already sold out on friday?
no experience on islamic loan; perhaps someone else can share the advantages?
why don't you ask the bank to show you a simple comparison between the two types of bank loan?
i would love to see such a comparison.
*
Booked before Friday coz I bought the voucher. I was undecided between type C and B. In the end, decided to stick with my budget and go for type C.

QUOTE(bigman @ Aug 26 2014, 01:22 PM)
islamic no lock in period...if u thinking to sell after VP...can consider islamic

Yes, you're right. smile.gif

I settled with the loan application already. Waiting for the S&P signing, etc.

Thank you, smile.gif. I'm happy most of the stuff quite settled. MBB was the fastest to get back to me. Great service.

QUOTE(ibbrio @ Aug 26 2014, 01:46 PM)
ya, additional savings few thousand dollars with the voucher. you are the lucky one but i thought sales only open on friday so you had special arrangement to book before friday.
type B has a yard, better, buVt agree it is not a slight price increase so have to go based on budget.
*
Voucher holders can buy two days earlier as well as the savings. It's a good promo. I didn't rush to buy the voucher though but looking at the Clio sales, I'm glad I bought.

My preference was type B due to the 2+1 rooms. But the pricing increased significantly due to lower units taken already for both types. I stood in front of the sales chart for quite a while before deciding. Sales people were hovering and waiting for my pick. Overall, am happy with the purchase process. laugh.gif

Any latest sales chart?

BBB project!

Just curious. At what percentage of sales would you define as BBB project? I thought the sales was good but not to the point it was completely sold out in a day (ex: putra heights condo/residence).

FYI, my Maybank islamic give me discount on stamp duty at 20% off. (not sure only apply to the project i purchase or what)  rclxms.gif

It applies for any project. Which project did you buy?

Any project as long >70% booked out is commendable.

Around 10-40% of those could be loan rejected later.

Thanks, accetera. Noted. smile.gif
