are DBKL info on such things available for public consumption?

How do you do due diligence in this case?

If they can promise a central park and later remove it, I won't trust it.

Their other project in You City Cheras same thing, early phase buyer bought with promise on their last phase which is mall with link bridge to Suntex MRT. Now MRT complete with no provision for link bridge.

If you want to buy, better assume the bridge is not there. If there is, consider it as a bonus.

thanks for the heads up. I will assume there is no bridge. What about the build quality tho? Obviously if you have someone making promises only to renege I can say its 50/50 but the location is really strategic.

Build quality could be better, but definitely not the worst. Generally people are unhappy with them is because OSK quality is not up to buyers expectations, e.g. for the premium they charge, OSK should have deliver much better parcel.

This is comparing their project within neighboring project in that particular area, like Cyberjaya and Cheras.

Avoid taking their semi-furnish packages, disregard what the agent tell you. Most people regret it.

Their architect firm (if they are still with them) sucks. Do ask for floor plan, check the lobby layout, adjacent unit layout, car park space, traffic, common area, etc. Quite a few surprises (good and bad) like balcony wall in front of certain units (due to facade design) which somewhat block your view, at the same time additional sqft for your private use.

Probably that's why their fascade design this time is flat, with only 2 layout.

Checkout their showroom. Pay attention to the size of showroom, some developer (OSK being one of them) purposely build slightly larger footprint, like additional 1-2ft longer/wider. Count the tiles if you could (4sqft/ea for 2x2 tiles) and see if it adds up and check with the overall dimension in the layout plan. If the difference is too much, then you have to use a bit of imagination to visualise a smaller or narrower living room, bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, etc. If you can live with it, then go ahead.

It is common to find out VP unit smaller with shrink down kitchen, entrance, toilet, living room etc. Most people brush it off thinking is because of the ID, but truth is, the show unit could be bigger.

I can change unit no problem, but the most important thing i want to know is their delivery, i read one article posted here by a forumer that they change the master plan for their cyberjaya project ?

Question is, will they change the 2.2acres of facilities floor to another condo block ?

Please give me more feedback those that bought osk project before, let me make my decision and go this weekend.

Thanks in advance

The facilities floor is part of the deliverables within the same phase. Once they get the approval from authority on the master plan (within the same phase), developer is not allow to change it.

When you received the SPA, usually they will only attached your unit layout and overall foor plan. You may want to ask for their facilities floor plan, carpark layout, carpark traffic as check if there can be any issue as your unit is facing carpark.

Anything that is attached with SPA, you need to sign it, and it will form part of the contract. Usually developer reluctant to share the facilities plan, usually the actual facilities will be slightly different than the artist impression/scale model; some better, some worst. You may also need to check the connecting bridge to Jaya One are within the SPA.

Usually develooers relunctant to share the facilities plan????

I thought all developers are required to share the facilities plan and carpark lots b4 spa is signed....

Not 3d version but 2d version.

Only the plan view. Details like landscape, assess, stairs, hall, or if the facilities is spread across few level/area, they might not include it.

OSK did no't provide car park assignment in their previous SPA.
