the price is steep for this project, 807sqf unit up to 700k. Only one carpark given.

I do agree that the price for this project is not exactly cheap. However, looking at the location and the quality of products the developer is giving us, I think it's fair. Not to mention the low density (the unit I bought is on the smaller block, which has 5 units a floor). It's more of a you get what you pay for kinda thing.

I was told that Stage 2(a) will be some time next month, maybe in May. Judging by this, VP will be earlier than expected.

Any idea how the carpark allocated? how much you bought for unit? how big?

The carpark, from what I understand, will be the more expensive units at the lower floors while the less expensive ones at the higher floors. Depends on size as well. The carpark, if the unit comes with 2, will be side by side and not tandem.

I bought Type G, 1076 sqft for RM910k after discounts.

the unit 1076 type G is a very good choice, firstly, not facing the noisy road, corner unit, low density only 5 units a floor. But is still abit expensive, >900k plus for 1076 sqf, which means about 850psf, its the most expensive project among OKR

To me yeah the price is on the high side. I am checking project for GenKL and the cheapest 1,150sf is at RM 938k before discount. Mostly there 1k sf onwards, only 332 units and its Capitaland.

But of course, location of GenKL is slightly further away towards OKR/Kuchai Lama la.

Yeah. I like it because of the low density. RM850 psf is not cheap. For investors/flippers maybe it's on the high side because there is not much room for profit in the short term. But for own stay, I feel it's ok. You pay for what you get. In fact, I was told that most of the units sold are the larger units that are more than 1k sqft because most buyers are buying for own stay.

I've been to GenKL as well but to be really honest, Avara is much better when it comes to the quality of the furnishing as well as building materials.

Location wise, that's where the traffic is...Come in from Kuchai side or OKR side also the traffic is crazy. Not to mention the access.

For now, the pros for GenKL is the price and its completion date. It'll be completed much earlier than Avara.

I guess it boils down to if buying for investment or for own stay.

I visited the sales gallery today, the location of the sales gallery is hard to get, located at a norrow road of jln seputeh, really shocked me. Luckily, thats not the entrance of Avara, the entrance of real project is on the main road of OKR. Besides, Its really can't consider walkable to mid valley, but driving is not far about 10minutes. The easiest way to get into the main entrance of Avara is thru federal highway, keep to Jln OKR, then turn left, will see the main entrance. All 4 views of Avara, mid valley view, tmn desa view, KL view, swimming pool views are okay. Personally, The best view is tmn desa view (east), and swimming pool view. KL or midvalley views will be dusty and noisy abit with the busy roads. The sales is considered fairly good up to 60%sold fr SA. The retails are not for sales, will be managed by developer to rent out. So far, everything is ok except for the price, hehe.

850psf?!! And here I thot market collapsed...

i was really surprise too, but 60% sold just for the few months launched, KL still lots of rich ppls.

Anyone can recommend a same range project near mid valley, which is better than Avara seputeh?

Cheap already loh......for new launches.

Subang ara kelana tmn megah all sell much higher than 850psf.....

Here's quick comparison that I can gather:-

Avara: 366 units, 1.39 acres of land, Seputeh address (possible?), RM 0.40 psf, Ba Sheng S/B, premium fitting & finishing etc. Anyone knows how many car park provided?

GenKL: 332 units, 3.32 acres of land, Kuchai Lama, RM 0.35 psf, Capitaland & Juta Asia, partly furnished, 2 - 5 car parks.

I think GenKL is cheaper. It depends also which area are you comfortable. If u have extra money, go for Avara. If prefer value for money, better opt for GenKL.

My humble 2cents. The rest, do add up your point haha

Premium fitting and finishing mean wat? For 850psf, I better be getting marble and real timber flooring...

That is what stated in the website haha.

Wardrobe for master bedroom • Kitchen cabinet • Wash basin shelf • Cylindrical storage water heater • Washing machine • Quality air-conditioners for bedrooms & living hall • Quality kitchen appliances • Quality brand sanitary fittings • Quality tiles • Solid timber bedroom flooring • Movable sunshade (units facing east & west) • High performance tinted glass window

i was at the sales gallery, apparently quite suit my taste ... walk in immediately can wash hands lolz

they are using the Bravat or something for the toiletries .... this brand macam not bad ... i like most are the balcony sliding doors, high and heavy... feels premium ... if not mistaken fridge and washing machine included in some of the types they are offering ... still deeply considering ...

For Avara, all units below 1000sf are given one carpark, smaller unit from 600sf to 829sf i can accept, but 900plus sf also one carpark is not really practical since the price is touching 1mil.

the design is good and premium so far, totally agree.

what to do ... car park slots limited and mahal ... at first i also doubting searching for Ba Sheng online, when i visited that day ... then i met one of the boss ... they actually operated under a different company that deals mostly in other sectors, which i think to be fair better not to be disclosed here ...

Ba Sheng is just the company for future residential property development. Arghhh so tough ... just tough ... i like the side facing taman desa ... quite serene and nothing is blocking ... geeeee

any idea wat are they going to do with the retails below?
