Vivamall after the huha redevelopment, themed as a home furnishing mall, has a hotel n MBO cinema n quite nearby miharja LRT station is probably 50% occupied only n tenants moving out....u can blame it on the ue3 curse but fact is still fact

Cheras sentral mall also has TGV but not showing strong signs of making it after opening...u can blame it on the Phoenix plaza curse but fact is still fact

The big Giant before you city is a fairly quiet Giant

Only leisure mall is doing good and at certain time during weekend, the carpark is full and they block cars from going in

Further down, the Aeon Cheras Selatan is also doing not bad

Can you city mall and ekocheras mall make it with the MRT connection?

If u are going to manage ekocheras mall, what would u do to make it successful?

The above question strike me when I visited jaya shopping centre today, one month after it's opening, a place with lots of old memory

It was announced before opening that it has 80% tenancy with 30% old tenants n 70% new ones

To my surprise, so many empty lots, the higher floors is like totally empty n no sign on the individual unit wall board indicating the name of the future tenant

Then I heard someone asking a restaurant operator:

Why u open so early, mall still quiet

Management force us to open fast. Told us 50% will open in first month

But now how many % now

Seems like only 30%, the management could have lied to us

Then after leaving and within few hundred meters, I stare at the new Centerstage retail plaza with a big banner saying opening in June 2014

WHAT HAVE U TO SAY??

I think kl folks have own favorite mall to go in their heart already.

Regardless how far the distance, they will still prefer hanging out there.

At least i am, even though cheras central more near to my staying area, yet i still prefer go midvalley.

Dont you think so?

Congrats Ekocheras V3......! more to come ..?! V4 V5 V6....

I'm Cheras Lang and I prefer leisure mall 20 years ago until now. Therefore, I bought Ekocheras.

Errrrr,I'm kl Lang but from other sides not Cheras.but also bought ekocheras

I think % of successful mall is small maybe less than 20%. There are many dead mall around ..

Hi KL Lang, leisure mall is located at kl also

Yala,other side Mah....currently staying dutamas side....Nvr stayed in Cheras but lots of frens there,quite like that side also.

Wah.. Dutamas is quite a distance from Ekocheras. Welcome to Cheras Kl..!

Undoubtly leisure mall is a ideal landmark for cheras kia.
viva mall, cheras central cant even able to fight against.

i not prefer leisure mall is because it is always jam.
Jam means wang... hahahha

Me also cheras lang. Have always been to Leisure Mall for more than 20 years since I was a kid and still is one of my favourite malls. Hence why I bought ekocheras

i foreseen ekojiulai, laisue mall, connaught and cheras sentral will become new commercial hub in cheras to bring wang the area nearby.

Thank you Patchay boss for V3.
Congratulations to all daikors, daichers and bosses that take part in the forum.
Me grew up in Cheras, stayed there for 25 years and still visiting Cheras every weekend.

Welcome to montjulai. The future most Ong kv place lay here.

MRT 2 will have a separate station at taman segar n then integrate with MRT 1 at Cheras sentral

Wonder where is the site? Taman segar will have 2 MRT station nearby, wow, same selling point like sunway velocity!!

Eco Majestic by EcoWorld is selling like hot cake.. BBB n WWW mode..

anyone went to view infiniti which is another lrt project?? next to sri rampai putra station..

if you can only choose either 1. why want lrt when u can have mrt..

Hi CMW boss, do you have a link that spells better map resolution than the link below.
I would like to see if there is a better chance for better details at Tmn Segar
Thx
http://www.reigroup.com.my/?p=2524

Bro, i saw the map in the latest version of Property Insight magazine which I did not buy....u can check it out

Good! V3 now.

The press said this Cheras Sentral mall very potential.

http://property.sinchew.com.my/node/2554

I recalled back in the early 90s, when Leisure Mall and Phoenix plaza were opened around the same time (within two weeks apart).
Initially both started well, with Phoenix plaza having more allocated stores.
Eventually, you know la the result.

Personally, I would hope to see Cheras Sentral mall doing well, as this proves Cheras area is still ONG.
Indirectly, it attracts investors to Ekomall.

Wow...2000 people hunting for 600 units.

http://property.sinchew.com.my/node/2564?tid=4

Have you managed to book one?

Anyone else still waiting for their SPA copy? I signed mine in Feb and still not heard anything back from them... :/

Some of the bosses of from this forum called up the lawyer to get the stamped copy.
Would you like to try so?

I predict cheras sentral need wait while second mrt2 complete.

ekochras can straight take the effect of wang qi from leisure mall

cheras sentral sibeh hard.... such a roller coster road. and the mall is up hill some more...very no good. if downhill macam valley like or flat land... masih ok.
now have to see if ada cinema and mrt ready see ada change boh.

never see a good mall build at the hill. qi cannot go up. only go down. if they change this mall become temple better... release qi to surrounding. sure will be 1 sibeh ong temple.

hello hello,
you are really good in feng shui

First World Plaza? LOL
(It pops up as Genting planned for Resorts World Las Vegas..)

Agree with roller coster road to the Cheras Sentral Mall.
I had a few occasions feeling head spinning upon reaching the car park area of the ex-Phoenix mall.
What I did later was to park at the shoplot area behind and walked into the mall.

Good luck to Cheras Sentral Mall.

It is shared in EkoCheras Owners Only Fb group due to copyright reason

Noted...Thx
From the map in the Fb group, is the MRT2 "Segar" station located between Segar and Cheras Hartamas?

Bro, as long as all are ekobuyers then should be one big family.. cheers.

The press didn't said very potential but Maryland said...

Normally I no trust flower seller saying that their flower is nice smell

Thanks for the feedback.
I mean to say "This article reported this Cheras Sentral mall very potential"

Ok ok, big boss and the guardian of this thread, thanks for always keeping it active!

Here you go...

I second that due to this reason:

Wow, the station at the bottom of hill road going up after Petronas? They will need to widen the roads there. Tmn segar shops will be more ONG flanked by 2 MRT station front and back

It is still speculative at this stage...

There will be a future development project integrated with the station...

Those apartments nearby will have good rental yield when MRT complete...worth to research on subsale. But the HTC will be running just in front at the slope of the forest reserve

Can see the actual site for the prose carpark n food stall

The 2 stations are supposed to be integrated but looks like quite far on the map

Sunway Velocity LRT x1, MRT x1
Cheras Sentral MRT x2

Is Cheras sentral supposed to have some serviced apartments?

Strange that Maryland not cashing out to fund the mall and the silka hotel?

Thank you Syong888 boss so much for the clear map.
Within the 500m radius, the forest may need to be cleared a bit to build the MRT railway and perhaps the station too.
Anyone knows the future development project name?
Another MRT proprerty leh....

Side track..l notice, Cheras Hartamas apartment is LH.

The MRT track looks like will cut through many developed area, possibly compulsory acquisition need to be carried out, this may upset many people

But looking at the future taman midah station, it is so damn close to that row of shops with maybank at the last corner

This one

Tmn Bukit Cheras Apartment & Cheria Heights

This post has been edited by syong888: May 27 2014, 10:52 PM

Understand that land from the foothill all the way upto bukit segar on the hill top are LH

Welcome boss

Unable to get any information from other map as well pertaining the future development. Land owner strikes jackpot, just like SunVelo and EkoCheras, suddenly there is MRT station there

This post has been edited by syong888: May 27 2014, 10:55 PM

If we are to walk from EKC to Segar station(if location is confirmed), we first need to cross Jln Cheras, then to the opposite parking place and plus another 500m to reach the red dot. A bit sweating leh under hot sun.

Hehe..
Bro- I would prefer to take Mrt 1 to Xchange Mrt 2 either at Cheras Sentral or at Maluri.. Not sure how the charges is..

With potentially Inner Circle Line in the bag, EC will be well connected

Wow,

such a good thinking...
The crowd sure need walk through cheras sentral to get to the other side of the station to change line.

The wang qi will move around.

Thanks. Have just been informed that my stamped copy is ready and will be couriered to me.

With 2 MRT stations near by, how can this place be not Ong?

Side track: Anyone who plan to Property fair at Setia City this weekend, pls advise any goodies. Thank you.

I would also hope so.

This article reported that only 30% of existing 133 shopping malls or hypermarkets, are performing.

Thank you Hello boss for the news.
It is not a bad news to me, that anchor tenants as listed above, not going to Velo.
They may choose a hotter place like TRX, or perhaps relatively lower rental like EKC, U city (using the current psf to deduce similarity of rental).

The road will be closed for EKC construction.
From the ending date, looks like they are confident to reopen by end of 2017.

Wonder when Ekomall will be in operation ....

The rooftop of TBM has been removed. More demolishing work in progress.....

The slope of the convent/church has been korek-ed to make border of EkoHotel.
This should be the site of EkoHotel if not mistaken (allow me to call it this name).


This post has been edited by Jagalat: Jun 1 2014, 06:29 PM

The BlkJ basement has been flatten by filling some soil.
Perhaps the soil is taken from the slope of the convent/church.
Is the depth deep enough for basement 3?

All pics were taken during this afternoon.



This post has been edited by Jagalat: Jun 1 2014, 06:37 PM

Wow so this is the site progress?

Yes ....
The road to be closed is likely is the road in between Blk J and H.

wow.. thank u for the pictures !!!

Bro, thanks for the photo.
Btwn, where is TBM? The row of furniture shop..?

Yes- agreed.

The picture was taken from a car workshop(behind TBM) along the Jalan Mutiara Barat.
In the picture, the first shop at the right was TBM(rooftop removed)
Furniture shops were the shops located to its left(not captured)

I noticed a few pubs after the ex-sales gallery were in demolishing process too.
Cheers..

Thank you for the updates.

No problem...
To summarize all the 4 pictures, a map is attached here.
The red dots are places where photos were taken.
Hope this provides a better view of angle.

Good cool great!

wondering if the slope clearing area and the factory next to it is belong to Ekocheras...?

Bro, u are the best, thank you!

Just to share my dissapointment with fellow buyers, I got my s&p duplicate copies few days ago via courier service. I didnt go thru it upon received the document. To my surprise when I read it this morning. It got so many mistakes, 1st the sellibg price if the unit was not correct, 2nd the extra carpark that I purchase was not included. 3rd the stamped date was april 2014 (I signed middle of december 2013).
So I called the law firm, got thru only after many calls. Then asked to speak to susana, but she is too busy to answer my call. Askes to leave my contact and wait for her to call back. No call so far.
Called to Ekovest office, they immediately apologised on behalf of BAD law firm they engaged. (His exact words) and told me their manager will call me back. Same, no call thus far.
Some of u are more aggressive and call them to get the s@p sooner. I belonged to the less aggresive group because I see no urgency to get that sooner. But I think they took my patience and trust for granted. Not intend to finger pointing anyone. Just Really dissapointed with the mediocre service and lackadaisical attitudes of both party. I just hope they can work in a more proffesional way to get things done.
Still waiting for their call and will uodate u guys about the progress. Ps. Do read your copy of snp.

Sorry to hear the disappointment.

(In case you need Joe Wong's number, it can be dug out from V1 or V2...I can dig it)

From Restful boss, Joe Wong's number 0127073350 for any queries.
I used to call him before. Not sure if this number still active.

This post has been edited by Jagalat: Jun 2 2014, 04:10 PM

Bro, u didn't check the selling price when signing?

For the extra carpark, would u not prefer to sign a separate S&P as accessory parcel. In that case, it is not attached to the unit and you can transact in future separately without selling your unit

Lets give them sometimes. Price was correct when signing the snp. That was before I got the offer of the extra carpark. I think they got confuse abt the combined price.
No, cant do it seprately. I signed an addendum 9r something, so the final snp will include both. That was what I have been told.

Thanks for the number. Will call as next option

bro- I faced the same problem for the spa date. I signed in Dec and the spa dated Apr. I did ask them buy they told me due to the signing director was out of office.
Nothing much I can do as the spa is stamped other than made a complaint.

My unit comes with 2 parkings and the spa is stated only one number. I think it is because front n rear parking.


Attached thumbnail(s)

May I know what type of unit that you purchase? coz mine only got 1 parking place.

Soho 762sft only comes with 1 parking bay. But I thought ALL the parking bay were sold out when I bought my unit in November.

In my interpretation, yes loh.
The slope clearing area the factory next to it should be the location of EkoHotel.

My was not a tandem carpark, and I got to buy the extra because someone loan got rejected. In the snp that I signed seperately had 2 carpark numbers, but the one that I finally received had only one.
The price of my unit in the snp I received is cheaper than what it shud be. I dont mind that of they agree that shud be the price.

The signing director was out of the office from decemeber to april thingy is just one excuse that made ppl more angry.
But that isnt a big issue to me, just wanted to list down all problems for them to see.

My unit's car park and the extra one I bought.

If project delay, u stand to loose lad.

Yeah... I do aware of that. Today I didnt receive any call from any of them. Sigh....
