Not gung-ho only, but greedy

But if u have been to the dinner preview they had the nite before the launch of phase 2, tropicana was so confident based on the feedback that they could have adjusted the price list that night itself

If less than 20% booking on first day, this must be worst highrise launch in tropicana history

Normally insider already exceeded 20%

Cannot make a sweeping statement...but to me for prudent investment stay away form a project which set record breaking price in a particular area

When TG phase 2 was so successful, unsold units at nearby KD area like Encorp straight away increase price to catch up...

For 4 years project, DIBS is roughly worth 7 % so should be quite close with the value of FF

But for the 9xx sf units of phase 3 to have golf view while those of phase 2 none and the pricing maybe only marginal higher, those phase 2 buyer will be banging head against wall

If selling 80% furnished should have show unit lah.....no artist impression and purchasers need to use own imagination and visualization....

Comment comment? Should a tropics owner sell a 625 sf FF unit and swap for a 600sf TG FF unit?

Tropicana uncles all bought phase 1 liao

Maybe need to park car at 1U Central Park n take MRT to reach home at TG

Not good and not bad...sufficed as a mid sized mall which serve as alternative to PJ folks instead of having to beat the jam and parking at big malls

Not easy to get subsale unit as not many selling...

Walking distance to?

Cyperus lowest floor 600sf studio is about rm1100psf

I checked back Bayberry price, the lowest floor studio was about rm1000psf

So if the renovation is assumed at rm100psf, both are about the same selling price except Cyperus entry price is higher for the FF or no price increase

Again, selling FF without show room is just

2 rooms is selling better but the studio sales is really slow...amazing slow and based on how tropicana priced Cyperus, they know they are pushing for the max under current market but they must be also surprise with how slow the sales has been...you don't see that sparkle in the eyes of the SA like last time...like they also lost energy...lol

Today mr ho chon soon said mrt line 1 will be running by 31 dec 2016 as gamuda will be entitled to an incentive from mrt corp

Cyperus and the TG mall will be ready only in 2018 so there will be close to 2 years lag time from mrt operational

SA told me GSC confirm...

The current rebate is 5%+3%+2%

3% for signing spa within 30 days (unlike the old 14 days...lol) and 2% is so call early bird discount (unlike the normal one only valid for the launching weekend...lol again)

Tropicana card member get additional discount

Talking about specs, I noticed discrimination in different units

Bedroom floor for studio is porcelain tiles while the 2 rooms unit is timber flooring n tiles. 3 rooms units only all timber flooring.

Do they need to do this when the psf selling price is actually higher for studio vs the bigger units?

At the current selling price, the buyers should be mostly own stayers so the reason for the faster sale for the 2 rooms units facing golf view. The pure investors who normally go for studio has dried up hence the slow sales for studio

Per floor 12 units but 8 units or 67% are studios. Hence can say Tropicana misjudged the market demand

They should come up with more 8xx sf ft 2 rooms or 1+1 room units and reduce the number of studio to meet the own stayer market....but alas, own stayer prefer to do their own Reno vs investor who prefer furnishing for easy rent out...again conflict in the marketing strategies...my 2 cents

Yes

Selangor imposed new ruling effective 1 Sep 2014, foreigners only allow to purchase properties above RM2m

Most HOT is Liberty Tower @ I-City

We need them to move the market...same like some of the investors/speculators for TG Phase 1 and 2 and who has dried up for phase 3

Almost vp still have few units unsold but price marked up a lot compared to launching
