On workmanship, I'm banging on hopes that Binastra was the main contractor for Exsim's projects and Exsim's project (The Treez) which garner positive reviews on the workmanship. On Melody/tower A, unfortunately which building that faces the highway is quiet? Unless there's no cars passing by which is unlikely and those mat rempits or cars speeding or honking, definitely you'll hear it. I think it should be fine if you shut the balcony doors (double layer of doors for units facing NPE) and window with thicker curtains for rooms. Hoping that as the floors goes up, the noise impact will be lesser.

They are also building The Reach, Titiwangsa and Green Rescidence, Cheras now. Here's one of their 4 projects that is going to be completed soon, Cybersquare. Perhaps that could be used as a benchmark of what to be expected.

pearl suria haven't VP you already know the condition??

you work inside?

for the partly furnished units, are the furnishing details stated in the S&P/any document?

Is this the case for everyone? Or just you? Sometimes developers don't state anything in black in white, but I agree with you that they should!

Normally freebies might hv another seperate letter sign by developer
U may clarify with SA

Can I ask what kinda freebies u referring to? Is it the furnishing?

its not really freebies, we are paying for it! Haha.

you have to sign another letter for freebies from developer,

if just talk and nothing been sign then good luck to you.

it not attached together in the appendix, it a different letter

Ok la if got official email from the developer/lawyer. Emails are same as hard copy documents/letter and can be used in court the same way as documents..

It good that at least they have something written.

normally under SPA in the recitals will state the land details including the land tenure as freehold or leasehold.
go check.

can i assume the following:
citi
852sf 2br2bath

maintenance @ RM0.33psf = RM281 per month
avg selling price say RM580psf? absolute RM494k
citi2
725sf 2br2bath
@RM0.36psf = RM261 per month
@RM650psf? = RM471k

difference per month for maintenance is approx RM20 and difference in installment would be circa RM116 based on 4.5% for 30 years.
Total difference is less than RM150 all in all per month.

difference in size of these 2 offering is approximately nearly 20%.

and assuming targeted rental is say RM1500 per month. question is would tenants pay extra RM150 or 10% for citi1 to enjoy 20% larger area and slightly less densed development?

similarly for sales, and again assuming all things equal, at same price point, would citi 1 be more disposable or citi 2 if both are say asking at RM550k post completion?

i think the difference is pretty negligible.
please comment.
cheers!
