I received the invitation too despite not yet submitting documents. Planning to go and try my luck.

Thanks! But Suria Pantai seems like a really good deal too. If cannot get Kiara Kasih, will apply for Suria Pantai. Nice location..

Do you mind sharing why not level 19 and 20?

Heh actually I think I'm not going to proceed with Kiara Kasih. The mosque is noisy and the surroundings are really kampung. Aston Kiara 3 also not selling as well as other Mont Kiara condos despite its lower price because of the location. It will take long for KK to appreciate IMHO.

I also visited Suria Pantai in the sales gallery and I prefer that location, moreover IJM is investing a lot into improving the accessibility with the new access roads. Not to mention 1k booking fee and rebate. KK requires 30k downpayment upon booking confirmation assuming I qualify for 90% loan, which is a tough pill to swallow.

Suria Pantai is surrounded by medium cost apartments (currently asking for more than 300k) and some squatter houses. But Pantai Sentral Park (900psf onwards) and Ancubic's Cubic Botanical (600psf) are among the surroundings. There's a Muslim cemetery there la so if you pantang then maybe it's not the best option. I think given time the squatters will be cleared because IJM wants to upgrade Pantai Sentral Park surroundings for the benefit of its residents. Whereas this Kiara Kasih is an isolated plot of land from UEM Sunrise's higher end developments, so they probably won't be as invested into upgrading works for KK compared to IJM for Suria Pantai.

Anyway I heard from UEM sales staff that only 200+ applicants are eligible to ballot this round. So no worries if you missed out Kiara Kasih! Still got 500 units left for your choosing after today

You can submit documents on the spot anytime until 3pm today..the pegawai will be there.

Yes got cemetery and new mosque under construction Need to realign expectations for rumawip projects. The main attraction is the price point, that's about it lol. Location depends on where you're based I guess.

I heard from UEM sales staff 60% bumi applicants


Near enough to affect you hahaha. Can see the cemetery and definitely within hearing range for prayers. But looks like got swimming pool la. Facilities wise Kiara Kasih is better than Suria Pantai.

Ya rumawip www.suriapantai.com

For Suria Pantai this is the main drawback IMO

60% bumi applicants for Kiara Kasih. Whether or not all of these applicants have 30k for downpayment AND qualify for loan is another issue la

Current road is very narrow, hopefully they will improve it in future. My concern is on the access..there is only 1 access point which is this road. Traffic is going to be a nightmare I think.

I did try it lol..scary experience, if someone coming in opposite direction there's a long way to reverse back. Best not to attempt again until they widen the road.

The main dealbreaker for me is the 30k upfront for Kiara Kasih. But Suria Pantai built-up size is smaller (810sf) vs Kiara Kasih (850sf)



No. of Units: KK - 719, SP - 884
Upfront: KK - RM30k downpayment, SP - 1k booking fee
Price PSF: KK - RM353, SP - RM340 (after rebate is lesser)
Floors: KK - 40 sty, SP - 34 sty
Mosque: KK - Yes, SP - Yes
Cemetery: KK - No, SP - Yes
Kampung: KK - Yes, SP - Yes
Highway: KK - right next to it (any concerns on dusty?), SP - not so near highway
Facilities: KK - more facilities with rooftop access, SP - basic with swimming pool
Upcoming neighbour buildings: KK - 2500 PR1MA units next door, SP - Pantai Sentral Park, Cubic Botanical..
Malls: KK - 1Mont Kiara, Publika, SP - Mid Valley

I fear that both will be equally congested...but personally prefer SP cos am PJ lang and always hangout at Mid Valley.
The 2500 units is just scary to imagine with that single access road. Future also got Bon Kiara there as well. Even without Bon Kiara, 3200 units affordable housing sharing the same access and need to go through the narrow kampung road at Jalan Segambut is enough to make one cry. One needs to try going there during peak hour to see if can tolerate it for long term.
30k upfront is based on what the UEM sales staff briefed me. SP got early bird 10% discount according to their advertisement = RM27,500 downpayment waived. After the discount price psf is RM306 (where else can you find brand new apartment this price?) which makes it much more attractive than RM353 psf (KK). I can buy a washer dryer with the savings here.

Ultimately, these RUMAWIP are really for own stay and not ideal for investment. The supply surrounding KK is going to suppress prices for a long time. Renting out KK fighting with 2500 unit PR1MA going to be throw price game down the road.

It's doable for sure because heavy vehicles need to go in to clear the land. Unless there is another access point for the upcoming PR1MA which is quite unlikely. Pity the KK residents who have to live with the construction noise, dust and bad roads during the PR1MA construction.
