CIMB & HSBC. I think they consider things like loan amount, credit history and so on.

I expect EM will give details of the house specifications and the selling points (e.g. perimeter CCTV etc) in the brochure but to my disappointment it is nil.  To me as a buyer it's call transparency rather than just lip service. I see no harm of doing it unless EM is worry about over promise. Rather than wait till upon signing S&P only knowing about it, shouldn't we as a consumer have the full knowledge of what we buy prior to entering into the contract? Moreso given that this costs us hundreds of thousands to millions.

What say you? hmm.gif

Totally agree!

That's the point! Are they too worry to honour what they agree to deliver hence giving themself "hou lou" by not putting it down black and white at the very beginning?  I just found out (verbally told) last week more info about the CCTV points, SD MBR floor is timber strip while cluster is laminated, tiles full 11' height at kitchen but 9' only at bathroom etc... These are basic stuff mar.  Never ask never know - mana boleh?

Am I too fussy? No right?

I think I asked a lot more questions than you haha!
R u sure bathroom not fully tiled? Mana boleh?

It is a very unique experience buying house from EM, they have very knowledgable and senior people who are there to answer your questions. I think tenderfield addressed the security issues very well, which is big concerns among house owners such as providing CCTV points, pacnic buttons, wiring for alarms (not sure if it s for every window and door), I forgot to tell them enough water supply is also a big issue nowadays, big enough tangki e.g 2x1500ml tangki, water tap at kitchen and downstairs toilet that can switch to water supply from tangki when there are no direct water from main, water pump, which is headache for owner to do as these will involve hacking, these could b provided to buyers as optional package which I think will b most welcome for genuine own stay buyer. For cluster, I think a lot of people will intend to install grill door at the yard, put their washing washing at the yard, but current layout is no roof and grill at the yard, so perhaps this is also something to look into to maintain a more consistent look. This is a view from someone living long in KL with no sense of security, may b someone staying in strata G&G will have different view?
Another point since there should b enough fund to run the precinct, installation of water filter at the main water supply should b considered as well so that buyer no need to install eye soring water filter at their own water meter.

Kitchen tap is always from Syabas direct. Toilets are always from the tank. It will be relatively tedious to get both tapping since such drawing is required to be submitted to authority for approval.

Water pumps are only used when anticipated or calculated pressure is inadequate. Otherwise it won't be used.

Main water filter at outside and after the water meter is a GOOD suggestion. I think EcoWorld should put on thinking cap on this matter. Moreover, installation of water filter could Possibly distort the facade.

Metal grill at yard??? This one they need to re confirm. I asked the same for 2B.

Two water tanks. This is tricky. Spare requirement and distortion of facade. I think this one is tough and no go. Authority may or may not approve it too if they submit the drawing with such oversized combined capacity.

Understand your point. Owner has to do themselves then on the tap thing, less eco lor. This one for people who has suffered water shortage will appreciate it.

The metal grill I saw that at ecohill zero lot bungalow, which is quite nicely done and not so offensive.

On the yard, people will tend to put up poly roof, which may not b ideal if they just do their side as the coverage would b limited, better developer make one that cover the 4 attached units. But then again may b violating building rules for cluster?

I think the club house to some extent is chicken and egg problem. Country garden selling well other than being price attractive the club house is a factor also, though not my cup of tea the design. To make it attractive to stay far away from KL, clubhouse is important, otherwise what to do there even want to treat it as weekend home? Can't broga hill every time right?

Ever wonder why build clubhouse now when VP is at least two years down the road?

But now quite uncertain, don't know when, don't know what r there, don't know whether resident only not. Don't know if they will ever build it? By Oct when their show house open, suppose they should have a firm answer already? Do u know how long after VP they will the club house in Setia alam and eco park? Is that something written down in the S&P?

Wont be RM7k difference la...
Single name?

It could be one of your MRTA cover for only 10 years while other MRTA cover full your entirely loan tenure?
*
Yes both single name and 10 years cover. It is indeed rm7k difference, one is fully flexi CIMB, the other is semi flexi MBB, that shouldn't make any difference right? Will call the bank to verify tomorrow. Is this something that can b negotiated?

I saw the letter, meter, rubbish box concrete structure which usually positioned in front of house is nicely done in country garden s bungalow, it is aligned to the side of the house, instead of align to the front of the house. This can make the gate area looks bigger and fit more cars, can someone feedback? EW staff can you pls consider?

MRTA not mandatory and no lock in period too - that's the best part that makes CIMB full flexi becoming less competitive!
*
If not taking MRTA, then both bank best rate is BLR-2.45?

CIMB offer BLR-2.5 but their MRTA is way too expensive than others. Their model is calculated based on 7% interest rate thus much higher premium. Beware!

RHB can give -2.50% if loan is above RM1m regardless of the MRTA.  CIMB will only consider -2.50% if MRTA imposed.

Aiya not qualify for RHB already.

Why? If it's because of the loan amount (hence getting only -2.45%) there is still one benefit - no lock in period.

After all, it's your call and I make no benefit whichever bank you take smile.gif

Since the property is only ready in 3 years, the lock in shouldn't ve much difference right? If both banks offer same rate I m likely to go with CIMB bcos I m used to their online banking. Is RHB banking service good?
