This road is already so jammed up during non-peak hours due to the narrowing of the road by the Awan Besar LRT.

Why did DBKL allow such a high density condo to be built in a tiny area?

They should build lower density condo or houses there instead.

There are already so many new condos on this road, Treez, KM1, Kiara residence, can't remember the rest.

Right now, the lane is very narrow, only one car can squeeze through.

There are not enough space for widening of the lane because they are building two blocks there when there should be only one block.

It's really high density with hardly any parking space inside the area. It would be a nightmare going into and out from the condo. The location is good but DBKL has bad management to allow such a high density condo to be build when the exit is already so congested.

I doubt the small piece of land cause millions of dollars. It's more a case of greediness.

If you compare this area with the next door Anjung Hijau/Greenfields, the small piece of land is equivalent to only one block in Anjung Hijau. One block in Anjung Hijau is only 17 floors and building 33 floors is double the density.

Building too high a block makes the building less stable in case of strong wind.

I never buy any building with more than 15 floors, in case of earthquake, it will sure collapse.

If they build only one block, then there is enough space for the exit to the main road. But if they build two blocks in this small piece of land, I think they will use the small lane to exit.

There just isn't enough space for two blocks, guard house and parking at the ground floor.

There is a reason why the old buildings in Bukit Jalil was build with lesser storeys i.e. more stability


Green Avenue - 16 storeys
Greenfield/Anjung Hijau - 17 storey
Arena Green - 13 storeys.
Bukit OUG - 16 storeys
Sri Rakyat - 14 storeys
Jalil Damai - 15 storeys


Nowadays, Greed has taken over developers rather than safety of the residence.

If you guys think that this is only 'theory' and will never happen, go and visit Anjung Hijau next door.

One of the big top roofs in Anjung Hijau was blown off by strong wind a few months ago. Until now, nobody has replaced the roof so you can see for yourself the effects of high buildings.

15 storeys and below are much safer.

Do you think average developer will put in so much money to stabilise a tall building?

They don't have the money to build safety measures such as Petronas Twin Tower where an earthquake stabiliser was built into it. This cause a lot of money.

Rarity means it's more sought after. In terms of attractiveness from most to least

1. Double storey houses

2. Townhouses with 5 storeys and below

3. Condo with 15 storeys and below

4. Condo with 16-30 storeys

5. Condo with more than 30 storeys.


So it's really up to individual what they want to buy. High density condos usually have other social problems such as parking, security, lift problems.

Just ask yourself, if developers can build 30 storeys and above to make more money, why did they just build 15 storeys in the past? I've given a list of old Bukit Jalil condos.

Read carefully!

The restriction is for Sg Besi development and NOT Bukit Jalil.

" company has already obtained approval in principle for the Sungai Besi development, which is located about 6km from the Sungai Besi airport. We are waiting for the height restriction approval as the area falls under the flying zone of the Sungai Besi airport."

Is Bukit Jalil 6 km from Sungai Besi airport?

Stop confusing readers here.

What I am saying are all facts.

The best is buying double storey house if you can afford it, if not buy a low density condo with less troubles.

I am sure these are all common sense for most people who have stayed in both landed and condo.

You must be one of the property agents for Skyluxe, if not, you won't try to cover up the bad points in living in a high density and extremely high floor condo.

Even if you don't know how to read the article in English which specifically said 'Sg Besi' and NOT 'Bukit Jalil'.
You should be able to know how near 6 km is.

Since when Bukit Jalil has been renamed to Sg Besi ?

There is no way that Anjung Hijau/Skylux is within 6 km from TUDM kuala lumpur

Rich people don't buy condo to live. The ones buying expensive condo usually wants to flip it after it's built.

There are plenty of double storey houses/bungalows in esplanade and bukit jalil golf resort nearby for the rich to live.

I think a lot of people here haven't lived in a high density condo before and its many problems.

I doubt you can walk all the way to the park.

DBKL need to control the entrance to prevent vandalism or fishing at night; therefore, the gates are closed at night.

I doubt DBKL wants to have so many entrances because that will incur more costs ie.guardhouses and guards

Sharing doesn't cost anything.

But giving wrong information to potential buyers has a cost. The buyers will suffer loss of money due to bad investment.

Most property agents I know don't say any bad things about their property
They are only interested in their commission, when things go wrong, they won't entertain you.

Just look around Bukit Jalil, there are lots of high density, high rise condos built during the last few years that can't sell because the owners intended to flip after it is completed.

I read an article in the Star regarding this oversupply recently. This will cause an oversupply of condos in Bukit Jalil which can't sell and can't rent at a good price. When all the new condos are completed in a few more years, it will get worse. Do you think all these property agents will care for your loss?

If skyluxe build a low density condo area below 5 storeys, this area will be very hot.

But to compete with the other high rise, high density condos in Bukit jalil such as KM1, Kiara residence, treez and whatever new high density condos, this is a formula for disaster.

The good flipping days are over, govt has suppressed speculation.

I am not funny. I am just stating the facts unlike you.

Do you think that Arena Green is the ONLY condo that is less than 15 levels in Bukit Jalil? I've listed so many condos in Bukit Jalil which are about 15 levels which buyers can choose from. Why must they buy from Arena Green as you assume?

If you are not selling skyluxe why are you promoting Skyluxe so much? Public parking by the road is common to all condos, you're the ones giving useless reasons.

Most people with common sense will buy a landed property for own stay in the same area if the price of a condo and the double storey house are the same.

Narrow access road, the crowded lift, throwing of rubbish from high areas, strong wind at high floors, instability of building, renovation noise are the other factors for every high density buildings.

People do throw down rubbish from their balcony and the speed of the rubbish increases with height.

Sound doesn't travel within same floor only. Sound travel from upstairs and from downstairs. You can even hear any renovation noise from 10 floors up or 10 floors down.

All these problems won't exist or are lessened in low density buildings such as double storey landed or less than 10 storey high buildings.

Just walk around the new condos around Awan Besar LRT, many 'for sale' sign.

Nowadays it is difficult to sell high density condos.

All these flippers are going to get burned when they can't sell at higher price than what they bought.

High density condos are only good if it is situated right at the doorstep of Pavillion 2.

Yes, agree. There are obviously lots of property agents in this thread trying to promote skyluxe.

Honest property agents should give people a more balanced view which I will give below.

Pros:

1. It is located very near Bukit Jalil Park so exercising there is more convenient

2. It has both Golf View and Park View when viewed from the balcony. I am assuming the balcony either faces north or south.

Cons:

1. The very narrow entrance road. You have to compete with other park goers who will park their cars there.
I don't see any other entrance at Jalan 1/155B currently. If the main entrance is Jalan 1/155B which is the same as Anjung Hijau, then the problem is partly solved.

Jalan 1/155B is NOW already very congested during non-peak hours ever since the new LRT and red lights came up. It's a bumper to bumper every morning trying to get to Kesas highway.

This will get worse when all the new condos and Pavilion 2 are completed in the future.


2. It is a high density condo in a very small area which is less attractive than other lower density condo in Bukit Jalil. You not only have to compete with lower density condo but also other high density condo in Bukit Jalil. I've already listed the cons of living in a high density condo earlier.
