This is block F problem .

1) electric got problem ,when use water heater ,the TV will suddenly ( turn OFF ),when turn on other button also got the same problem .
sometime turn off the button can see the blue color fire .so dangerous !!!!!

2) the car parking exit really a big problem ,have to turn a big round ,leakage problem , car wire stolen .

3) the car parking very smelly and dirty .

4) everyday early morning 8:30am renovation ,so noisy .

5)the lobby no fan ,no air conditioner ,always pass by lobby go to evolve mall also can feel the security body odor taste ,SO Smelly !!!!!!!!

6) the trash can so smelly & dirty . OMG !!!!!!!!!!

i think many comments abt this plae u havent highlight. wht abt the extremely close blocks to each other n bad access road? have they fixed d road

Heard this place quite alot of student african..

Any issue with roach infestation?

Yes ,so many African .

Car parking exit always change ,when exit need to turn here and there ,haven't fixed yet .

I feel for you Kelly.

What is "car wire stolen'?

I kinda feel for the security officers there...imagine if you were to work in a confined place with no fan and no Aircond, I dun think you will emit flowery frangrance too.....

Rental yield must be excellent and loan repayment could be self sustaining.

or imagine if you are inside in a cramped train(no air-cond) surrounded by banglass..

Where is this located exactly? New one?

not too far from Citta mall but it's further in from the main road. been there once. access to evolve mall is terrible. one access and through the residence. poor planning

the developer is island circle?

Same developer like PJ Sec 13 Pacific Star?

pacific place reminds me of HDB estate in Singapore

you should get electrician to look into the electricity problem in your unit asap. sounds dangerous

Overpriced place

it was reasonably priced when it was launched. i almost bought this place then

nearby got any college ?

if i remember correctly, this condo is closest to LRT.

heard so many bad reviews about this place..

have a lot of PH too

security will be major issue especially for single ladies

the site previously is rubbish landfill, no proper survey ka?

A list of problems

not mentioning the bad access road as well ...

My car radio wire Kena stolen .
Yaya ....I can feel the security feeling ,I know there very hot ,actually lobby got air cond ,but no turn on ,even fan also don't want give them ,so pity .

Lol...I can understand your feeling .
Just feeling the security very ( Cham ).

(I mean inside the car parking )Last month still useing like normal ,but dunno why suddenly block the road ,so have to turn a very round to another place to exit parking ,pass by will see the walls watertight .
So dirty .

So after exit the main road ,the road has been change .
Must drive carefully and drive slowly .

yeah.. especially cramped monorail or ktm komuter..

anyway, pacific place is a ex-landfill area..of which that is where the smell come from..

so evertime I would go through quickly . Really HOT ....

OMG !!!! Really be Tahan ....Malaysia weather really hot ,how to Tahan ? My poor security.

the condo that's nearest to LRT station there is Eve Suites..just beside the Ara Damansara station. in fact, i think it's linked to the lrt station. the thing i don't like about eve suites is it's right next to NKVE.

Car parking 的出口设计很有问题，最近常在改路，出入很不方便，要转很大的圈，每经过大圈都会看到墙壁在漏水很disgusting,出到大马路又在改路，很危险，有一天我还看到有位老伯伯不小心撞到新建好的dividers .So dangerous

OMG....

Lol .... I think just turn on the air conditioning more Easier .

the location is very bad esp the access road.

got pic...?? of bad issues..

and current value of apt/condo ?

Are you interested in selling ?

Security got smell ? eh buy them perfume, what i did

African flooding area.. try complaint to Immigration malaysia... sure at least Half if illegal.. so may cut their population half.

EVE suites is connected to Lembah Subang LRT not Ara Damansara.

that's why we should not expect some high paying expat who can afford that high rental of a mrt integrated property to take trains

a lot ppl buy for "investment" because it is close to lrt ... and investment = rent to ph lor..

Agree with u... as long as $$$. They wont care other issue... pity for those own-stay....

Sames goes to other condos as well

But take LRT very convenient wor.

these owners really spoiling the place by renting to PH

Sad to say tat ony PH can afford to pay gud rent during tis time

after PH leave your units. damage will be bad..

more cost to repair it

你现在看到的不是什么恐怖电影的拍摄，这是 "pacific place ara Damasara " Block E 的 Car Parking .

希望这些问题可以改善。 .

OMG so bad condition

How old is this rundown building? Time to utilise the sinking fund to repaint the building

Why not? they take trains in New York.

you comparing NY with KL?

Any comment if compared to empire damansara perdana studio and Soho . Please advise thanks. Or just "abang adik"

The difference between NY and KL is that the trains and stations are newer and cleaner

Which one is newer and cleaner? KL or NY?

no need to factor in weather conditions?

Oh right.. NY has crappy weather too

Long way to go for high paying people to take public transportation in KL...
Only first world countries doing it..

OMG.. really scary

Any idea ?can complain to who ?
How to soft this problem ?

Ya...scary movie 😖

Kl with NY totally different .
Cannot compare .

Only Block E car park having these problems(leakage and wall paint fall off)?
Other blocks(say ABCDGH) no problem?

So bad workmanship... Did the owners there compiled a list of complaints to developers?

of cos lah KL cleaner. Our trains r better in EVERY way except connectability and number of lines. U can go ANYwhere in a NY subway but d stations n train itself is DIRTY with pee all over d place.

In the western world, near lrt station means for lower middle income n some middle income.

This is common area and I believe this development still within defect period liability

Complain to MA and JMC and get the developer to fix this.

Believe MA and JMC are not blind or don't know how to complain to the developer.

Most of the times... They are pretty aware with defects. Typically they compile all defects and complains and engage with developer to solve the issue amicably. The owners just need to check and file their complaints for recording and follow up with issue. I believe JMC MOM need to be posted up for all residents/ owners information.

How you sell it away when you open thread here telling the urgly truth? Haha....

well... it might be harder a bit.... but somehow... those who read LYN before buying a property... i think less than 10% of the population only... still have chance....

Well there's a lot of water fish out there...

And how many actually follows Lyn forum..

african infested means gone case for the property.

Back in year 2010, this condo was quite hot selling.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAA

Even now subsale is also hot and fairly easy to transacted. interested party can just search in Brickz

Pacific Place represent one of the value cost entry for MRT/ Mall linked property in prime damansara address with fairly liquidity in rental and subsale.

IMO... the value is better than some sih beh far location like Pahsang where developers are trying to sell at inflated price with unproven commercial and future LRT3.

Duno why got 2 opis lots here snp price 850k each but tier 1 valuer like henry butcher, jlw etc are only willing to value them at 670k tops each.

Not only that.. rental and appreciation here memang koyak like no tmr. Guess you are the only sober one here while all the rest of us are too drunk to see how failed this shit hole is.

Lol. Cheers.

We are taking about office or residential?

For residential, i do not think any of the first hand buyers complain about cap appreciation and rental demand so far. Agents is practically begging owners to let go for rental/ subsale especially for unobstructed view units.

Other block I dunno .

gks boss, you're so familiarise with this PP....Wonder if you're one of the owners as well?

having said that, the management/JMC tak boleh pakai.....plenty of rooms of improvement required....

Fairly speaking, all the early bird enjoy capital appreciation and probably good rental yield due to low entry. This is from business perspective.

However, if looking at own stay perspective. Definitely it is headache due to several issues.

my friend rent an apartment at this place 1.6k for 2r2b. quite convenient as it's connected to evolve mall and lrt extention.

went there a few times, the parking is still free and i think the maintainance not that good yet... probably a lot of shoplot at groundfloor no tenant yet...

the subsale price also quite inflated and not cheap already

This post has been edited by ahkit123: Jul 28 2016, 01:07 PM

i think the list of problem are not very major and shouldnt be too difficult to be resolve by jmb + developer

ahahah spot on!
I'm one of the PP owners, and I must say it is probably one of the best investment to date, and how I wish I had bought more!

LTV90% with 10k deposit, which was refunded when loan was subsequently drawndown - i.e. zero cost entry.
Appreciate of more than 40% since VP ?
My unit is currently tenanted to a local at RM1500pm, no problem with the tenant who pays promptly every month.

Dropped by Evolve Mall few weeks ago - yes parking is a pain, dark - don't look too safe, and looks dirty. But heck, it is free ?
10 mins walking to LRT, H&M & Jaya Grocer (now a newly opened Chinese restaurant in Evolve as well).
5 mins to hit NKVE

Come on guys, be fair - find me another "affordable" property with this type of 'amenities' and accessibility ?


Btw, I'm not selling my unit

please lar.... this world is not running on LYN forum

http://www.brickz.my/transactions/resident...ace/non-landed/

There are 48 transactions in past one year for Pacific Place. Pacific place offers value as no-frill integrated LRT+mall+accesibility+ara damansara address.

Some willing to spend RM900psf for iconic façade but leasehold with promised future LRT station. Or with same PSF, much more inferior location like pahsang or shah alam. It is buyer's judgemental call.

I am looking forward for those future development that eiher high psf or located in pahsang/shah alam how they will fare in subsale/ rental demand. Or these rich owners prefer to leave it empty for their kids.

What's 900psf today. Lol.. Gen Y taking over the older gen?

Sad.

Aches even more when there are still argument about FH vs LH.. lol..

Rented there for a year due to working there.

1. Rental super expensive. RM1000 for a medium room.
2. Car park susah..need big turn.
3. Facilities no maintenance. You can see all sport equipment no repair.
4. Evolve mall is a dead end there. Shops open and closed.
5. Agents control the renting price. Hard to get cheaper direct from owner unit.
6. Good luck.

Looks unappealing from the outside already. Would not touch.

No wander price drop in lelong?
8th round reauction. Drop from 800K.

Now priced at 57% off bank valuation.
Still can drop further?

Really have to agree for the sake of truth

that place 800k? omg... i thought its around 500k~

Actually less than rm 500k

Closer to 400 or less actually

There was a time when whatever property you bought in PJ/Damansara, price sure increase. Because prices shot up during the boom times. I used to stay in ara damansara when pacific place was launched. I knew that Pacific Place was built on a former official dumpsite thus I crossed it off my list straight away. I guess it is convenient to be a tenant there due to LRT station nearby but otherwise I wouldn't touch the place.

for investment

Good insight

This one buy already don't know whether can sell in the future. Which such conditions, I think their JMB/MC already will be in the screwed up condition.

Hi good evening. Can you please explain on the cons on building on dumpsite area? There is a condo in taman seri Manja pj claimed to be built on dumpsite. Still thinking to get it or not. Tqvm

I am not an expert but what i understand is that the ground needs to settle for 10 yrs after they closed the dumpsite but for this project, i understand that they did not wait 10 years so there may be ground movement which may result in cracks (hopefully nothing worse). Also being dumpsite, decomposing rubbish may lead to gasses trapped underground. Maybe got smell? Cannot grow plants? Contaminated underground water? Definitely need more research before putting money in it.
