Indeed it is trying times. SPSetia also neeed to resort to high upfront rebate to entice buyers to put down the deposit. For those still entitled of 90% loan, they can even get cash back when construction progress.

Kamares concept is pretty unique.. 240 units low rise 3 storeys condo sharing vast green space.... surrounded by canal.. With clubhouse throwed in actually the value proposition is not bad.

Btw, as per Sch H, only need water and electricity to be "ready" for connection. TNB and Syabas are responsible to connect and install the meter to each individual unit.

Nice for developers to get all these connected but as a buyers, wouldn't do harm to read your own SPA to know your rights.

Has Architect issue CCC? If yes, then you should question the architect....

Developer just issued VP based on CCC by Architect.

As a general rule of thumb (i might be wrong here) the gap between tile should be less than 5mm. 2-3mm considered as very good. However if just a single or few pieces of tile, i think it shouldn't be term as poor delivery and workmanship.

In this case, you should file your report to SPSetia and in my past experience with them, they will take up the case and discuss with you how to solve the issue. However do bear in mind due to different batch of tile, there will be slight discolouration of the replacement tile that u might find even more nuisance.

Workmanship is about expectation and reality. We engage foreigner workers to build and construct our building. We can be picky and have high expectation of property that we bought with hard earned money however sometimes practicality should come in picture where come into such details.

Discolouration is due to different batch during the firing. Nothing to do with quality

Once you have more experience dealing with different developers, you will develop a profiling of each developer. Some developer the workmanship is really subpar with lousy customer service however they are selling under the market price and you can make healthy gain. So, you need to establish what your need and want list before buying from these developers.

If you are in corporate... you will know.. hard to change the culture and philosophy... any changes need to come within the organisation themselves. SPSetia is strong in other areas and obviously lacking in certain area. Workmanship is obviously not one of it.

I am not asking anyone to accept company culture. If you think they deliver under your expectation, your have all rights provided under the SPA. And you can bring your money to elsewhere in the future. Your expectation and my expectation is different. Why you bought 3 properties with SPSetia but just one with MahSing? YOu have your own criteria mar.

Again, you are taking point out of context. You need know what you want or need. I am not saying everything else is forgivable but merely point out you need to know your needs and wants. Just for example i bought Regalia and i made a handsome gain from the investment however it came with set of headache which you can read easily from the thread. I need to write letter to lawyer to withhold the stakeholder sum to expedite the defect rectification which only the developer can do it. i know precisely the reason and gameplan and risk that i took when i bought the property and on hindsight i will still purchase it.

Obviously with new developer without any track records, you do not know what is their company culture and therefore need to factor in the discount market price to justify the risk on uncertainties and without track records.

There is the walkpath on the mainland side as well rite....

Mozzies only will breed in stagnant water. I think they will have adequate fish to address the issue.

Frogs no choice la. inevitably.....

SPsetia sold the island at premium vs mainland and very unlikely the resident who willing to pay premium will welcome additional crowds on their islands side.

I do not think SPSetia will allow mainlanders to acces the inner walkway as the canal is not really that wide and ppl can simply wade over/ swim over to the island. The islanders will ask the question if SPSetia simply allow outsiders to use this inner walkway.

Anyway, there already walkway along the mainland precint.

Once developer throw price, loyal buyers will run away....

Malaysia contractors aint doing any better either

Anyway.... most works are being done by using foreigner workers anyway....

I have African friends... They are genuine in their business... work and studies... and they are saddened by the act of their fellows in this country.

However I think it is also attributed to the lax of our beloved government where they easily grant Student visa for non-genuine Africans where they use it for their own activities in Malaysia.

We should urge our Gov to process the student visa more diligently. Not only African but to all countries. It is well known that China Dolls also came to Malaysia under Student Visa.

Crime is crime regardless who did it. The biggest heist in Malaysia is till not been caught and put in jail... till now.

You can't really park anything because you need a proper jetty for berthing.

For agents it is easier to promise low rental to prospect tenant
For landlord if you think the agents didn't serve your need, ban their number from your contact.
That is how free market works
Eventually the agents will realize their role is being intermediary not just hit and run.

Ref to rm1.1m unit it might be isolated case unless every owners are throwing price.

Potential buyer can view this as half full water or half empty.

Just taking example... my fren bought Adora 3S subsale for rm500k upon vp where first hand buyers just got it for rm400k+. Now unit can be transacted at rm1.5m

Every one has brilliant/ perfect eyesight on hindsight but will take a great vision to make money.
