Can anyone give a comment btw EcoWorld Tenderfields vs KSL Canary Garden (Bandar Bestari @ Klang)? Canary Garden seems more exclusive but quite slow moving and location could also be a concern. Not sure whether it will be a successful project or not. EcoWorlds seems giving buyers more confidence...

I believe there are no projects with 100% similarities. Canary Garden comes with real smd and cluster as well as bangalow (with and w/o lift). Layout I prefer Canary... Scratching my head now which one to choose...

I'm actually looking at real smd. I have had a look on the layout yesterday in EM sales gallery. Though there could be some fine-tune, I expect no major change to the layout. Price for both (EM and Canary) are around 1.4m. Both are 40x80 but BU for Canary is slightly larger and still have room for extension - not for the case of EM Tenderfields as this is under strata title.

For EM, I may end up not getting a preferred unit / unit with preferred location upon launching and if I only then switch to Canary, I may miss the boat as there are only few units available now. Possibly getting nothing at the end... Pening...

Which one is better? Both got pro snd cons... Pening...

Attached the layout for Canary Garden for your reference and comments.

Get both?! How I wish...

Thanks bro for the detailed ecplanations! There are actually 2 designs for the EM smd (be it 40x80 or 40x90) - classic and lifestyle. The lifestyle type is the "modern" type whereby the yard and guest room are at the front and the wet kitchen is just right behind the guest room whereas the dinning is at the back. The layout for master bedroom is also a bit "weird" (to my standard). As for the classic type, which is the more common one, the bathroom in the master bedroom is facing /beside the bed - quite a weird design. In general, the master bedroom for both types are not spacious enough. I'm also concern whether there is enough sunlight getting in the 1st floor family hall.

As for CG, I would say the master bedroom is more spacious though the family hall at 1st floor is smaller due to space being sacrificed for 4 bedrooms. But the kitchen area (particularly wet kitchen) is smaller.

Facade I tend to prefer CG (pls see pic).

Nevertheless, valuation wise I believe that EM has greater upside potential partly attributed by the fact that together with SPS Ecohill the vicinity is expected to be a well planned, high grade townships. Of course the fact that Tan Sri LKS being the mastermind for these projects (EM and Ecohill) also carry some intangible values which we can't ignore. CG lacks of other sizeable high end projects (by other developers) which could uphold the values of the properties there which shall take into consideration of the facilities and infrastructure in the surrounding area. Accessibility is one key issue. Publicity of this CG project seems not done so well too compared to EM. Perhaps because of publicity, people tend to have much confidence in EM. Also, a friend of mind raise a valid point that Klang people rarely stay in service apartment - so how well will the high rise (on top of the KSL Mall 2) in CG be selling? Saleability of the high rise units will be one of the critical success factors of CG township.

Sigh... how to choose???

36 mths 0%??? Can pls clarify a bit?

Normally the loan application is submitted together with other required docs for assessment. How come this could happen? Wondering which bank has this unique loan assessment process...

All bank should have their standard turnaround time. If the banker takes unacceptably long period to process your loan application, write in to bank negara and cc to the bank mgmt to complaint.

The bankers need to achieve their sales KPI in order to get fat bonus

As it said "early bird discount", it should be given to early purchasers not the latecomers.

The bankers are smart, they will call up the developer or through other ways to find out the discount. It's a matter of how prudent they want.

It should have nothing to do with the Housing Ministry. The Bank Negara ruling is sth that the bank MUST follow strictly. So if the bank is awared of the rebate / discount but still grant the loan based on gross selling price, it is taking risk on its own. The bank won't be able to justify (when being audited) that being a panel it doesn't know about the discount.

Is it the finalized layout? Finalized for all types - cluster and real SMD?

If nit mistaken some banks (I think RHB) can offer a minus spread of 2.50%.

Earlier was told that will be launched in phases. One before the show units ready and then another one or more launches after the show units ready.

You make a good point here. But what will be the normal practice? Merely based on trust without black & white? I'm thinking of perhaps a written undertaking from the referrer to pay to the introducee within a stipulated timeframe. Some may argue that whether it is economically feasible or not to take legal action (so serious?) againat the fellow who fails to honour its words, but it may give some pressure to him / her to take things seriously.

I will seriously consider to take legal action to the fellow who treat me like a fool!

Oops! Perhaps I'm sounded too serious... my point is simple, "yau qin dai ga wen" since this is effortless earned money don't be too greedy until breaching the trust. Else that fellow should be taught a lesson.

Oops! Sorry
