Anyone know what are the stages for Block B? Planning to sell my unit, and my parking lots (level UG) consider not bad?

500m is straight line. It's a 15 to 20mins walk around the lake.

See this one , man made waterfalls

HK properties have gone through the roof due to mainland Chinese buying and also because land is scarce.

Because we are nowhere near prices in HK and the transportation here sucks, the only way is up due to such improvements. Some analyst did some reasearch back in year 2000 or 2001, comparing the effects on Singapore & KL with that of Paris and London, due to the low cost airlines and the Euro Channel Tube. Yes, the HSR was already considered way back then.

Read lah.

Usually this is what developer will do. Hold a certain number of units as "developer units", hoping the price will go up by the time the property vp. For Lakeville though, it backfired due to his company's reputation. The Mah Sing name is not what it used to be anymore.

Mrt2 station Sri Delima is within 500m radius.

Hi,

I read your response. I would like to know more of your experience with regards to this place. I have recently booked a unit in tower F. Unfortunately, only after booking the unit, I have heard negative reviews about the location (such as being a gangster area). Is it safe ? 

I am aware that MRT coming is up in 2 years , so that should ease the traffic a bit. Also value should go up marginally once it is functioning.

Any kind of feedback from you, would really help me to decide whether I cancel my booking or should I proceed with the loan application.

Your response will be highly helpful.

After vped, developer need not and unlikely to spend on community project unless many units unsold.

My friend bought a unit Block B. I went there, used the facilities too. I am not positive about this place. Its of very high density taking everything into consideration. But it depends on what price you are buying it at, on my pov, if below 650psf or 620psf, for own stay, then is ok.

If you are cash rich, can afford 10% down payment, strongly advice wait for lelong.

They are still selling this by booth, you can head to PJ Starling Mall, see how to sales agent pitch you. Really funny.
Agent: "You know, we Mahsing is just trying to clear stock, we just want to clear stock, so we sell cheap, theres only like 20 units left.
Agent: "Why we want to clear stock? because MahSing want bank release the money. After clear all unit, only bank can release all the money"
(bla bla bla, then price what what 650psft something like that)
My wife: "Wa, sell at dropped price, then those first time buyer how? All cry lo?"
Agent:"Ya la, some complain, thats why, NOW this is good price, good location, we free this free that, room cabinet bla bla bla... Miss when want to see, can call me, I can bring you to view, this is my card bla bla bla..."

Of all the agents at the Hall booths, the MahSing one is the best pitcher, probably very good commission.

My conclusion, because of very low deposit requirement, many who couldn't afford could have bought it back then. Ended up a lot who would not be able to service the loan. Developer is trying to sell with even better offer than previous, speaks much about their standing and their view towards Lakeville. (Even backstabbing the previous buyer?)
I went to other sales gallery, a couple of agents, during presentation, would put up the property they selling compare to Lakeville, say their friend bought, now die la bla bla bla (Sales gallery at North Kiara). So the sentiment about this condo is really bad.
If lelong units start poping out, developer would not be able to sell their remaining units. Because by then, market decides the price.

Actually I am looking now myself, since 2 months ago, been shopping around... I cant speak for others, but for myself, been going to a lot of showrooms these couple of weeks. And also subsales, but subsales, i find those agents really annoying, they either put a lot of fake photos or mislead you with fake information. Some agents even offer me, if you found which one you view (with other agents) you like, you can give me the address, i split the commission half back to you. Then they keep whatsapping you with "potential property" you might like.
the pros i found is
u get value for money, not overpriced property.

the con is of course, have to put down high down payment.

So, I have decided to buy from keen seller or lelong.

Sorry for the late reply, was off to holiday.

Ok for older properties, I would look at its price, then check if it has kitchen extension, or anything like that, just easily drive thru from the outside, you can gauge how much modification it has done, was it well taken care of? Then book with a agent, to view similar units nearby, to check inside layout.
There are always ways, i do my homework.

For new properties, of course its easier.

Anyway back to Lakeville, I am not interested dont pm me, I am just merely stating my opinion of this condo where the developer backstabbed the early buyers and ditched them. Am looking forward to see whats gonna happen in the next few months.

There r plenty of old but nice landed around. Just tat many newbies got blinded by condo cos all tall tall wan easy to spot ma.
