I am currently researching more about this condominium, Seri Maya at Setiawangsa.
It is less than 5km away from KLCC yet not as frequently mentioned compared to the likes of Mont Kiara, Cheras, Bangsar South properties..

Is it a good place to buy for either own stay or invest for rental income?
Any Seri Maya owners, can share the pros and cons of this place and if it is a good place to buy?

I saw on Facebook 1-2 years back the condo owner protested against Duke phase 3 elevated highway which will be above the road facing the condo... is it still happening?

I wonder if it is a big issue? I want to buy that place because want to take lrt to work and all other places. Although my family own car, we really prefer public transportation and let others do the traffic stress job for us. Life is better with less stress on the road.

My other concern is whether seri maya is noisy?
I am currently living inside residential zone with big fields etc. Hardly hear car buzzing noises in the background.

How is it compared to Mont Kiara. Top up abit can consider mont kiara already

I agree. The community should encourage waiting for uber near to guardhouse for convenience for all. It is also a waste of time for passenger for the time taken for driver to enter the condo also.

Is it still the case today? I was hoping that the condo appeals to western expats who work in KL and their kids study in ISKL. Seri Maya looks abit like tropical/ resort styled which might attract them?

Yupe. I am comfortable between 1300-1500sq ft. Have to check on monthly maintenance fee like u mentioned

Anyone lives in condo that is like 200m away from highway? Like just outside your house. Is it an issue...

I am refering to this one... https://www.facebook.com/NoToDuke3/

It appears that there will be Duke phase 3 elevated highway which will be built on top of Jalan Jelatek...

thanks guys.
Actually i should change my topic title to be more diverse because I have three places in mind. I need a place that can appeal to me and family when I am based in KL, and good rental income if I am stationed elsewhere outside KL.

I was considering these three places 1. Seri Maya (Jelatek area), 2. Mont Kiara and 3. Tropicana. These three places has some form of convenience, locality and value appreciation. I can't say much about Mont Kiara in terms of convenience because the cons is that I need to drive to work (although just KL sentral but I really hate jam) and the property in Mont Kiara is rather expensive but freehold.

Tropicana area property slightly cheaper than the ones Seri Maya and Mont Kiara but leasehold. I probably might end up with one almost 20 years old (or approaching soon to two decades old). These properties are so well located with convenience, got good school, good amount of shopping etc but haiz leasehold. Should I be worried about leasehold??
