Hi everyone! I am new here and have been observed quite a long time in this group discussion. Planning to buy a unit in Elmina EV4/ EV5 for own stay and appreciate in getting valuable comments from you all. Previously looking for second hand Garinia unit in Elmina Garden, like the modern design, layout and size but now considering new unit as well. Found out EV4 design is not that modern, size is smaller compared to Garinia and roof system is using traditional roof tile unlike Garinia that using RC roof slab. Hope to know more from you guys regarding EV4 /EV5 issues. Thanks in advance.

Not sure what is the current subsale for Garinia and I presume around 850K-900K.
compare with Garinia and EV4,  Garinia is bigger land size.

Of course Elmina garden is better.
- the total unit in EG vs EV, EG is lower
- EG land size is bigger
- EG are completed, you can see the actual build quality
- EG completed unit,  you can save money on loan
- Sime darby arrange more empty land to EG.

why can save money on loan? please enlighten me.

save progressive interest during construction period...

Landed property not bad gua.

Not much compared to condos in terms of construction period.

But yeah, getting an already VP-Ed unit is better but higher psf of entry lor.

thank you for yr comments. what disappointed me is the roofing system, roof tile required more maintenance in future compared to RC roof with membrane. but i prefered the location in EV4 &5 compared to elmina garden. the air plane lines are direct from top of elmina garden and 3 schools are near there, afraid noisy and congested. normally parent cars will just park beside the road which happening everyday in my area.

Anyone start paying interest or MOT for their EV4 purchase?

If im not mistaken, those people bought EV2 also still not paying the progressive interest...almost one year already....may be this project build and sell concept by SD       

I tot MOT is 100% covered by SD?

Staying at a unit with a concrete roof right now, When its almost end of the year, the amount of leaking and the amount of time i need fix it. I wish i'm staying at a good old zinc roof. Bought EV4 last year, hope i wont regret it. Anyone start paying interest or MOT for their EV4 purchase?

Which housing estate offered full rc flat roofing for landed in klang valley? Mind to share?

Rc flat roofing not many experts in malaysia can do good job...problem is most is done by less qualified foreign workers.

You need to apply sealants every 2 to 5 yrs...unless you

1. Dig out the entire roof and engage professional to redo everything again

2. Cover your roof with other materials such as zinc roofing

I cant remember the 3rd method already.

tiles with waterproof layer like bathroom.

Townhouse at kayu ara. Its a flat roof concrete. Worst still i settle my roof, my neighbor roof slipping to my side. I think i dig up the roof and redo 2 times. Before that treated the area with membrane injection. Finally piss off and just got someone to apply not sure what you call it but u paint it over the roof. Works fine now but need to repaint every 3 years.
