I think won't be so high, according to latest quarterly report, Cumulative Gross Profit QE 30/9/14 for Tropicana about 38%, Profit before tax margin around 20%.

Unless proven, we need to believe it, at least there are black & whites more trustworthy than the hear say of certain people.

By end of year the financial statements will be audited by qualified auditors, any material misstatement will be uncovered.

I think other than material cost, developer also need to pay staff cost, finance cost, rental, government compliance cost, overhead etc. As such profit won't be so high.

Just a add on point on this argument. TROPICANA this year hv taken they ISO cert. So at least the house is still up to certain standard. Please dont take those Kuen lai to compare with tropicana. Hahaha This is a joke comparing.
Go check the Kuen Lai condo. that handover this year. If i rmb is call tiara parkhome. The owner at there cry like hell.......

what is the buyer major complaint?

Of course Tropicana has better branding, track record, etc

That's why I said Tiara South is too expensive, selling almost same price as TH 3-storey before rebates

Good choice to diversify risk based on Locations.

You buy for own stay or investment

use your charm lo...do you have?

Setia or Ecoworld's DNA is their houses are still crap, sanitaryware are from local brands or china made and finishing very average still.

but they do give provision in creating nicer living environment with parks and waterways and what nots. its kinda balance it off.

seriously when i shown my newly vped Setia home to an oz friend, he told me that he wont even signed the Vp letter to accept ownership of the property because it was crap, not ready.

what do u mean by not ready, ie no lights, etc

I was told my my friend working in Europe

This was in Italy, his colleague from the UK saw a house and liked it and proceeded to buy

I don't know the legal details but when it was time for him to take the keys, he found that all the lights, bathroom and toilet fitings and basically anything not physically inside the walls / floors was removed by the previous owner.

There was no

a) lights
b) Sinks
c) Toilet bowls

So, this guy calls the previous owner and threatens to sue but he was told that his is the norm in Italy.

The house is delivered the same way the owner gets it from the Developer, bare and empty.

So he calls up his colleague from his Legal dept and they said, yep, its the norm and your Legal Papers should also say so.

Poor guy has no money to move in and had to beg his landlord to extend the lease temporary until he had enough funds to fit up the house.

But I admit, unless you are buying a branded residence like 8 Conlay, etc, 99% of the fittings will be made in PRC

We purchaser will pay a monthly fees for
the clubhouse. but i understand that
the linear park is open to the public.

generally all facilities can be used by public
to generate more funds to run the situation
more efficiently.but all bookings of facilities
will give membership priority and at no or less
cost.

HT concept is similar, i suppose.
