EKVE will exit at Ampang Waterfront.

Yeah, need to pay toll, but all highway route.. From Sungai Long interchange till Ampang Waterfront exit is about 25km.. If taking average speed of 100km/h, the journey should take around 15-20 minutes.

I really hope there is connection between EKVE and SUKE somehow near Ampang interchange..

I can't watch video. Can you kindly share from Google Map on the route? I wanna to try your route next time.

Ecoworld SA called me today informing Harmoni launching on 28th Aug 2016. Launching first block with around 360 units.

Starting price: RM 307,000, 900sf. Booking 5,000. 6% downpayment (after minus 4% rebate). May pre-assess loan eligibility with end financier and pre-sign SPA on the spot.

Yeah end of month as expected. Thanks for the info.
When will EM give the list of banks which can do the pre-assessment?

What does pre-sign SPA mean? Once sign S&P the 6% which is paid on the day the S&P is signed cannot be withdrawn if for whatever reason want to cancel deal later. So don't see the point rushing.

Harmoni = 294,720 (after discount) / 900sf = 327psf
Karisma = 257,000 / 800sf = 321psf

Should wait for harmoni

Yes. I agree with you. It's still better than using grand saga highway. If there is no proper exit at ampang waterfront, it will be another debottleneck. Just imagine if u r working in klcc, you already pay 2.50 for akhleh and not sure for EKVE. Probably 3-4. No doubt, it will be another option for road users..

saving buyer's time from travelling to Semenyih for few rounds? or maybe just want to lock the buyer, prevent them from cancel the booking, just my guess...

they have a list of banker's contact, give them a call and they will send you the contact

Using the midvalley as the reference point..

I will use the East-West link during the off-peak period, cheaper toll and shorter route..

Peak hour will use either Plus or Silk Balakong or East-West link, depending on the traffic indicated in waze.

Grands Saga currently being "destructed" by the MRT construction. A lot of bottlenecks either lanes closed or bad road condition. Hopefully after the MRT construction completed, traffic can be eased.

I hope there is somehow connection between EKVE and SUKE and somehow connected to AKLEH.. If all these 3 highways can be linked up, then it will be superb and minimize the bottleneck.

Time and petrol saved for me personally are sufficient to offset the toll.

Options for first time house buyers

Source: The Star Biz

In the wake of increasing pressure on banks to relax lending rules, the Association of Banks in Malaysia (ABM) is asking first time home buyers to consider applying for Government schemes such as “Skim Rumah Pertamaku” (SRP) for assistance in their property purchase.

An ABM statement said 11 commercial banks and 11 Islamic financial institutions in Malaysia were participating in the SRP scheme. The full list is on SRP’s website (http://www.srp.com.my/).

According to the website, 100% financing is available for houses capped at RM500,000.

Applicants must have a combined gross income of RM5,000. They must meet other conditions. “Homebuyers are reminded that there are various financing options for them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not something new but those who are interested in buying Harmoni and if eligible may consider it.

Too high rate on reject loan. They want to have a more effective selling process. 100 booked, 60 units rejected. Kind of no point for them.
With approval, can reduce the rejection rate hence increase the productivity of the launching.

Thanks for sharing.
I wonder why my waze always bring me to Hollan. I need to purposely set EH interchangeable as destination.

Haha... I am really not familiar with this region.
SUKE, AKLEH... ... all sound very strange to me.
So, these are the name i will be familiar with after i move in.

Connection to Taman pelangi is good but I would rather be abit further from Nottingham university otherwise students will start renting there...the last thing I want is living next door to a house full of noisy students...

Not sure leh... I only use waze for KL traffic, Kajang/Semenyih traffic so far still "predictable"..

If someone working in KL and stay in Semenyih, these highway shall be the alternatives in addition to the existing one.

Road connection between Pelangi Semenyih and uni more for commercial development rather than rental, my 2 cents.

I agreed. More for commercial activities. Off topic, students are stronger spenders than working adults with family.

Just wondered, is there any act to protect residents property under strata tittle to be use as hostel?

It shall be governed under the DMC of your strata residential. I remember seeing sth on that on what's prohibited / allowed.
