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.

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.

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

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

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 ...

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

Yeah the sales gallery quite confusing. Lol. I guess they wanted to be close to the project so that it's easier to show buyers where it is gua?

From Federal Highway, you can't go directly into Avara even if you keep left. The easiest way is to go further to Taman Desa, make a U turn, then make another U turn just before the turn off to Federal highway.This is also the most jam way.

The other way is exactly how you go to the sales gallery but instead of turning at Jalan Seputeh, go straight through the small road and you'll end up at OKR, where Avara will be the first development there. The small road looks like a motorcycle lane but I was assured that it's a lane for cars. The developer has already requested DBKL to widen the road.

The third way is from East West link. Just keep left when you're going to mid valley, there is a slip road. Take the slip road and you'll end up going to the sales gallery.

It is walkable to Mid Valley as I've done it when I placed my booking. Less than 10 minutes walk. Take the motorcycle lane.

There will be a shuttle service to Mid Valley as well that is provided free for residents based on this recent post by the developer.

In the post, they said they'll be getting a mini bus.

This current one maybe use for something else and at the same time advertisement gua...

Maybe you choose a unit based on the carpark?
Which unit are you interested in buying?

haha, no black and white ...

sales man can simply hentam anything....

I bought mine for own stay.
