High End concept.

Freehold.

Low density.

Sky bridge.

Live the best of both worlds, ...as you watch cascading waterfalls that brings the allure of fresh breeze amidst a mesmerizing backdrop of the lush glorious nature.

Almost the same like Foresta, now around 700k - 750k, you can get 1400++ sqft or this one more high class than Foresta?

Maybe Foresta can get cheaper as there is even auction for Foresta unit before.

Hi, based on the photo , the "Cracked" lines can be seen very clearly !? hmm.gif innocent.gif

"Any construction on slopes of more than 25 degree contravenes the second condition. Hillside development cannot be discussed only with reference to the altitude.

For slope stability, the higher the slope face and the steeper the angle, the higher the risk of slope failure.


Read more at https://www.thestar.com.my/metro/views/2018...YmyJxL.99"


Further, the project is against of Very High & almost 90 degree slop, will it be very safe !? hmm.gif innocent.gif
& in future, got problem, will the developer or management or local govt. going to maintain & upkeep the sloop ?!

For those who are thinking of purchasing - you should take a visit to Foresta. If possible get the original brochure of Foresta and compare what you'll get in the end.

This project aims at family, starting price start from about 900k, smallest unit is about 1250 sf.
Which translate to about RM720++ psft.

The RM650psft price which claimed by them, only comes after start serving interest , the developer will refund back to you a small amount on monthly basis.
So, if you get the money monthly, and pay the bank installment + this rebate money every month... which translate to bla bla bla~ You count yourself.

Which does not directly translate to RM650psft, they made it looks complicated with the maths thing, trying to trick you to think its RM650 psf.

Summary, this thing is selling RM720++psf, it has 2 blocks (total about 430units), from 1250psf to 1700psf. Maintenance is RM0.35 psf included sinking fund.

Highlights:
Floor 8 = facilities + lobby + artificial water stream (has a gate to link to Foresta unit)
skyroof = facility + swimming pool
1700sf unit = duplex unit (which gives you the feeling of landed house)
7 & 8 July first 5 buyer, are entitled to some highclass free fine dining.

Like the concept of the forest and green surrounding... but worry at the the same time for the slope, it looks really close (from the foundation photo shared earlier)... If the L&G developer can provide some facts to reassure the kiasi buyer here...

What's wrong with Foresta? Can't get the brochure as suggested by one of the user here, so can't really compare how good/bad the developer deliver their promise..
Any Foresta buyer here mind to share your neutral opinion?

the same contractor Pembinaan Yuen Seng PYS is engaged for construction works in Foresta, now for Seresta.
pay a visit to Foresta esp. the poolside and you will know how bad is this contractor's workmanship. Tiles started to loosen out after VPed less than 5years.

the so-called 3years DLP offered in Seresta is a gimmick as L&G knew that the poor quality of the finishes delivery in Foresta.
you know la, if you complain the contractor might just as their sub-sub-contractor to come to "cincai" repair.
then it breaks again and they "cincai" repair and the cycle repeat until DLP is gone. What's the point to have 3years or 5years DLP?
to me, if you are a reputable developer, you should try your best to repair all these finishes defects regardless the DLP. We are not talking about consumables, we are talking about those things that should be done right in the very first place.

can pay a visit there with some arrangement to the agents to see "real" condition instead of photos.

620k asking price for foresta? sure bo hmm.gif ? i doubt it's a unit with lots of serious "issues" or it's a "fishing" strategy by agent brows.gif .

if really can get 620k/1400sqft = around 443psf, "deidoulan la" (meaning cheap until die).
in kepong area where can get less than 500psf, not to mention this is newly VP one.

Anyone heard about the massive sink hole that appeared weeks ago in front of Airie just 100m down the road from the Foresta and Seresta site. The news indicate that this already forced to he closure of the road. Any one has kept track about incidences of rock falls, sink holes or landslides, even minor ones around this area? The only major incident I can find is a rockfall that closed off the Penchala links years ago, and that's on the other side of LDP. Is there any scheme tracking the soil and stability conditions at Foresta? or is there a emergency response plan in place ICE? Good to hear from residents of Bandar Sri Damansara or the Rustica apartments https://www.thestar.com.my/metro/metro-news...orry-residents/

Yes, this project is for homestay. Looks like a nice place to stay actually. Investment will be hard as its a bit far from shops and lrt. A bit far meaning u need transport and its not walking distance.

Mostly it's Block C/D issue. The ones in A/B less complaints from some feedback I have from people staying there. Since this project has only 2 blocks... less issues of rushing to complete?

any owner group created so far? me and my friends decided to proceed with this project. and my loan just got approve too.

Few key elements we considered after hearing some feedback from foresta owners and personally went there experience:

1. Workmenship - Foresta Tower C and D really quite bad but A & B seems better. Developer do acknowledge about this and mention will do better for seresta as pricing also more premium.

But this is alwys a risk.

2. Lift Issue - got confirmation from developer they change to another lift provider, if not mistaken Seresta is Kone.

3. Feedback from some friends that own Foresta, the environment really excellent and that also the main reason we proceed for here. The forest view really something we been looking for and like some mention here, is like a escape in city.

4. Location were still okay for us as is still reachable to major places such as PJ & KL and was pretty mature township. With new TA new retail coming soon, hopefully BSD will be even better.

Yes. C and D mainly due to the rush to avoid LAD. Hence, the problems.

Hopefully lifts has no issues.

Which unit did you guys get? Which block?

Do we foresee capital appreciation for this project in the next 5-10 years? Currently the price is more than 800k. I wonder whether I can sell it at such a high price or rent it for 2.8-3k at least. I checked beside foresta, selling so cheap 600-700k.

For investments most likely not. For own stay might be okay no? Also, if the TA masterplan move properly then it might be an extra perk for those that bought for own stay.

To be honest, looking at the uncertainty of your scenario today, i believe the right question would be would you wanna commit into such a big commitment now? or shall access again in 1 - 2 years time before making the decision?

From the information I obtained, the unit will be auditted based on the Qlassic Construction Quality Assessment Framework, in which, ensuring the project is being develop fulfilling specification mentioned in the spec, as well as the facilities or final product perform as its intended purposes. Besides Foresta, L&G also build Astoria, in which, so far, also under Qlassic assessment.

Come back in 2 years? From the outside it seems okay but can't compare much for now.

On a side note, Foresta workmanship has issues on the last 2 blocks mostly previously. Rushed to finish the project to avoid LAD.

Truly agree with how bad the contractor appointed by the developer completed Foresta, but if me, I will compare against latest development by the developer, that under same Qlassic Assessment; Astoria. That will benchmarks against future quality. Peace Out!

All the assessment is wayang only.
A lot of water leakage project is pass through the Qlassic assessment with high score.

Assessment is not done for whole building, just selected points and this selected points will be special take care.

Why defect only relate to main con? Developer cuci tangan?
Developer give short lead time and low margin pay to main con, then expect good results?

Truly agree with how bad the contractor appointed by the developer completed Foresta, but if me, I will compare against latest development by the developer, that under same Qlassic Assessment; Astoria. That will benchmarks against future quality. Peace Out!

You will need to provide evidence of ownership - a snapshot of S&P (not offer letter) main page with name, unit number.

I noticed that a 15amp switch socket outlet is not mentioned in the S&P. If you believe that you need this, perhaps you could write in to the developer to request this.

Only the 13amp ones are mentioned. The 15amp one is typically used for ovens. It's not as simple as switching out the 13amp outlet to a 15amp one. Need to draw a line from the main circuit breaker to a 15amp outlet for ovens.

Hi,
We are also interested in Block B unit type B.
Just transferred the locking fee and now applying for loan.
Reading the posts here made me a little worried about the finish quality though.
I hope they learned from Foresta and do a better job here. Also since Seresta is more expensive, hopefully they will use better material.
Anyone has more information about their other project Astoria?
How’s the workmanship there?
Also I was reading somewhere that the developer won few awards. If the workmanship is not good, how did they win an award? 😅

Oh wow. For Foresta, Block A & B is generally alright. Just that C & D.... But yeah. I've asked and they told me that they have made several changes to the things/development for Seresta including the brand of the Lifts used (complaints up down left right on the lousy lifts in Foresta).

As for the awards... A lot of developers also won awards based on their project etc, its their contractors that always messes up the development.

Those property awards are just awarded based on project concepts. Execution is never taken into consideration. Also, its the developer’s problem if they decide to appoint those low-quality subcon and didn’t supervise their project closely throughout the construction period. These are typical cost cutting measures.

So don’t blame subcon and ignore whatever cow/chicken awards when looking out for a property.

Yep. This one I agree. Any project or masterplan or concept can be blown right up to the sky (TODs, Green concepts etc etc). It's always the execution that fails the projects. so to answer to Navid_Kh please ignore the awards

Thank you for the replies. We are now submitting the documents and applying for the loan. Hopefully it will get approved


If approved and after signing SAP, for sure will join the WA group.

No, if you close the windows. But take note the higher the unit, the louder the sound gets.

Also, the issue of dust/pollution etc.

That's some pictures of the current project progress, as of September 2020.. in the attachment.

Some are asking about the quality of Astoria, and I found quite a number of videos on YouTube, showcasing actual-site photos, quality wise, I am not sure though...

Owh ya, award is just an award.. but, I did an extended research on landscape architect; InchScape, and their work (plan & actual) isn't bad. there could be a difference between artist impression, andwhat gonna be really happen on the actual site, but so far, InchScape does a good job. My only worries is, maintenance... you can design such a grand concept, but, with poor maintenance, things get damage sooner, and, that's scared me.

Just like others, Im one of the owner of Seresta, deep in my heart, I fall in love with the concept, but having water flow from jungle to the Level 8, with all dried leaves flow in as well... the pump, the filter, and all... need a heavy maintenance... that's again, scared me!

On a swimming pool at Level 43! again, I fall in love with the concept... but, to swim at that level, that's something I think off for 2nd time... I see other condo, they have heated pool... but this one, it is a merely normal swimming pool. Guess see how it become later..

Total agree with you, ultimately will really depend how strong the owners and JMB works together to maintain this places.

And speaking from experience part of the jmb, its not an easy task and hell lot of effort require to upkeep the whole condo.

Honestly speaking your points of the the water flow and sky swimming pool was also something my concern during my purchase of seresta, imagine few years down the road due lack of maintainence fund (could be too expensive or collection rate was not ideal) the water flow was forced to cease operation , just couldn't imagine how the place goanna turns up if happen.

You may speculate as you wish, if that makes you happy lol

Note: Seresta Block A was launched way back in 2019, and Seresta Block B was launched recently, in year 2020. For those who already bought their unit, i bet your lawyer has mentioned (as I ask specifically, what's amendment that they have done to my SPA as opposed to original control copy of SPA) that, this development has been granted an approval from the government to be completed within four (4) years, instead of usual three (3) years. Hence, the completion is targeted at 2H 2022, as per advertised.

As of now, the construction progress is rather healthy to me, as there are another 20 months to go before VP.. and progress currently is at Level 29, out of 49 floors for Block B. Touch wood, it should be able to complete on-time, as per plan given there is no major issues by the contractor.

To top it off, the contractor appointed to construct Seresta is Pembinaan Yuen Seng Sdn Bhd, if I get it right. And upon validation, Pembinaan Yuen Seng has a good track record as well, if looking at their previous project.

Peace Out! ✌️

With latest amendment to Strata Law (can't really recall, what law is that, need to check again), it is a legal obligation for owners to pay maintenance fees, and for the unsold unit, the developer has to pay the related maintenance and sinking fund. If properly enforce, hoping no major issues. And, knowing that majority purchaser buying for own stay, and potentially few for investment, it gives an extra comfort to me, on how everyone will have more sense of belonging and accountability to up keep our own house together.. haha something that I hope, the community is more mature, and well educated (and wiser), as the price is slightly higher than average..

Actually the quality of Foresta is not THAT bad.

It's okay la, the only bad thing in Foresta that I saw was the lift, but I heard people say lifts going to be replaced with better ones/fixed/etc.

I considered to buy Foresta before, up until I saw that huge telecommunication towers on the hill right next to it.....

Yeah, a bit too close for comfort, if not I would have bought Foresta/seresta.

Environment is excellent there, units are huge and reasonably priced freehold.

Talking about Communication Towers, in fact, I do consider this factor prior to making a decision to continue with the purchase. Hence, I take a walk, from Damansara Perdana to Seresta, and this what I get;

And, I have a chance to go to Level 36 of Foresta, and see how far or in fact, how near are the communication towers to Seresta. And this is what I get;

Attached Image
Attached Image

And, looking at it, yes, it is near, but it is NOT so near to an extend, worrying me. Why I am saying that? is because I see a lot of communication towers build on top of existing condo, facing another condo, within Damansara Perdana... that's for me, even worse. Or in another scenario, we all understand, and all of us can rightly observe, a lot of communication antenna, being erected on top of the existing commercial lots (the shop lots), which merely, less than 50m to the next residential unit, that's again, more worrying.

Hence, it doesn't stop me from investing smile.gif

You should know that those antennas that you see on shop lots/condos/houses are a whole different type of antenna/satellite dish/etc.

Those are nothing compared to a full-blown telecommunications tower. There’s been numerous studies and research on the radiation emitted by telecommunications tower, and they’re all scientifically proven. You can just google and you’ll find the results of those research, and they generally point towards the same conclusion - stay within 500m of a telecommunications tower, your risk of cancer increases.

There’s even a study that shows the impact of staying within 100m, 200m, 300m, etc within a telecommunication tower - you should google it and it’s very interesting. From that study, there’s actually an acceptable “safe” distance that you can stay from a telecommunication tower, can’t remember what it was, but Foresta seems too near.

These full-blown communication towers are made to cover miles and miles of area for cellphone coverage - so you can imagine how much is the radio frequency that is emitted by these type of towers.

The dishes/antennas on shop lots are mostly receivers, not emitters - so they do not emit radio waves, but just receives them. Also, you’d need to understand how radiation effects the human body. We have a tolerance limit towards radiation; and although everything around us emits radiation, as long as it’s within the tolerance limit that our body can absorb, then you’ll be fine.

A huge problem about that telecommunications tower is that the radiation emitted by that tower can easily blow past what the radiation yearly limit of what a human body can absorb. Couple that with a long-term effect of staying near there.....well....you do the maths.

My family has a history of cancer, that’s why I’m avoiding Foresta/seresta. But hey, if you think that the tower is an acceptable risk, it’s a good investment, as there’s not many negative aspect for Foresta/seresta. Good property which is hard to find if you can live with the tower, sadly I can’t, really liked Foresta when I viewed several units there.

Found a summary article of the distance study that I mentioned above.

https://beatemf.com/mobile-tower-radiation-safe-distance/

Don’t take my word for it, do your own research and read a lot of studies - radiation from telecommunication antenna is not a new topic, there’s tons of research on the impact available.

Good analysis, @NorAzdanNordin

Buying a property is a very long term commitment. If there is the slightest of doubts, move on and look for another. What appeals to some may not appeal to others.

For seresta, i have done the similar checking too on this, as its pretty confirm the tower was actually seems pretty far, but its good that you share the article for everyone info too

i checked based on estimated location to seresta resident block, seems about 420m-430m in google earth. it should give a rough picture of the estimation on this.

Somehow or rather, did we realized that our life is surrounded by a lot of microwave. Your phone, your house WiFi, etc etc and we are continuously subject to it 24/7/365.. Besides the telecommunications tower give a bad sight to those who choose jungle side, i am not worrying on the radiation due to the communication waves.. hence, i decide my unit to face to Sri Damansara... Facing North 🤗

That’s why earlier I said people should read up and get informed on how radiation affects human beings.

Yes, we’re surrounded by radiation from microwaves/phone/etc, even driving around your car and taking a flight exposes you to radiation, but the difference is - human body has a limit of how much radiation it can absorb without causing harm.

Generally microwaves, phones, etc emit minor and harmless radiation, that’s why people are okay surrounded by them.

Mobile towers, are a whole different thing, comparing radiation emitted by small appliances around us with a telecommunications tower is like comparing heat emitted by your ceiling light vs heat emitted by a campfire.

You can sit next to a ceiling light your whole life and probably nothing is going to happen to you, but put yourself next to a campfire your whole life, you’ll be cooked slowly. They both emit heat, but at different intensity/degree, so the impact is different.

That’s my analogy and view, anyway. The research shows that DISTANCE from the radiation source is the key factor as effects decreases as distance increase, so maybe the tower is far enough to not do any harm.

Talking about Communication Towers, in fact, I do consider this factor prior to making a decision to continue with the purchase. Hence, I take a walk, from Damansara Perdana to Seresta, and this what I get;

And, I have a chance to go to Level 36 of Foresta, and see how far or in fact, how near are the communication towers to Seresta. And this is what I get;

And, looking at it, yes, it is near, but it is NOT so near to an extend, worrying me. Why I am saying that? is because I see a lot of communication towers build on top of existing condo, facing another condo, within Damansara Perdana... that's for me, even worse. Or in another scenario, we all understand, and all of us can rightly observe, a lot of communication antenna, being erected on top of the existing commercial lots (the shop lots), which merely, less than 50m to the next residential unit, that's again, more worrying.

Hence, it doesn't stop me from investing smile.gif

QUOTE(NorAzdanNordin @ Nov 11 2020, 10:56 PM)
You should know that those antennas that you see on shop lots/condos/houses are a whole different type of antenna/satellite dish/etc.

Those are nothing compared to a full-blown telecommunications tower. There’s been numerous studies and research on the radiation emitted by telecommunications tower, and they’re all scientifically proven. You can just google and you’ll find the results of those research, and they generally point towards the same conclusion - stay within 500m of a telecommunications tower, your risk of cancer increases.

There’s even a study that shows the impact of staying within 100m, 200m, 300m, etc within a telecommunication tower - you should google it and it’s very interesting. From that study, there’s actually an acceptable “safe” distance that you can stay from a telecommunication tower, can’t remember what it was, but Foresta seems too near.

These full-blown communication towers are made to cover miles and miles of area for cellphone coverage - so you can imagine how much is the radio frequency that is emitted by these type of towers.

The dishes/antennas on shop lots are mostly receivers, not emitters - so they do not emit radio waves, but just receives them. Also, you’d need to understand how radiation effects the human body. We have a tolerance limit towards radiation; and although everything around us emits radiation, as long as it’s within the tolerance limit that our body can absorb, then you’ll be fine.

A huge problem about that telecommunications tower is that the radiation emitted by that tower can easily blow past what the radiation yearly limit of what a human body can absorb. Couple that with a long-term effect of staying near there.....well....you do the maths.

My family has a history of cancer, that’s why I’m avoiding Foresta/seresta. But hey, if you think that the tower is an acceptable risk, it’s a good investment, as there’s not many negative aspect for Foresta/seresta. Good property which is hard to find if you can live with the tower, sadly I can’t, really liked Foresta when I viewed several units there.

I used to be one of the buyer considering Foresta, so I think this news will concern residents. If you think it will affect you, please send it to your fellow residents and act for the current resident's interest

Some news. Looks like you may not be keeping your greens, unless we do something about it. Link below

IMHO. My worry is, if you allow development on top is the very steep hill, then the place will be denuded of trees. Can be a massive risk because the back of the Damansara Central Park is so steep. Cutting the hill to make way for development can both change the nature of the hill, as well as possible movement of soil and control of water. Need trees to hold the soil and water. The fact that there is a natural lake there, means that there is a lot of water retained by the geography of this hill and forest reserve. All in all, it's not good.

Your link is broken. But anyways, if you look at the latest report from the MBPJ site, it will affect KD, DP and Kwasa even more. The only approval from the MBPJ should be the L&G + TA Global new project at the old Sri Damansara clubhouse land.

I wonder how will people from DP take it now though.

I know that page & I know how bad it affects people especially their work at night. So looking at that, with the projects all around including the exsim projects and the proposed projects near armanee, it will be very bad for people in DP.

This is already more than just DASH, they're proposing converting the whole Bukit Lanjan into a giant residential development. If you happen to visit there before, you find that hat hill is both steep (up to 200m and surrounded by existing hill hugging development. What worse is it seems that hill have some water catchment going on, esp if you see the natural lake there.

It's still in proposal stage. Concerned resident should lodge their rejection to stop this kind of development. If you want to see how bad it can become, just ook at Kingsley Hill, and that's at a smaller elevation

Did you actually read the report or you are just following the FB page? Not helping anyone but most projects are already approved. So to stop anything from happening... MK's family needs to continue staying on top of the hill smile.gif

If you look at it properly (I read the reports btw), this time their focus into DP is the access from the highway to DP + the changes that will be made the Armanee.

Apparently, it was already approved since 2010 or 2011 but it was built as a low density project so now they are going to change it back to the high density project. Now that one is bad for the hill from the Armanee side.

When I shared the links, I have yet to go through the report in detail, I did get to only know that Bukit Lanjan is not a reserve, based on the original FB post, and that was a shock reveal. Shocked no one brought this up before nd everyone is still referring Bukit Lanjan as a reserve.

I did go through the reports in brief, specifically on the land planning maps , but I have to admit, I did not specifically look at the finer details of Bukit Lanjan. I was sceutinising further west in Kwasa

You are right, this report did not mention when approval was granted for the land parcels on top of Bukit Lanjan. And the only changes for Damansara Perdana up for review is the access road and schools new government services and schools there

That said it is important to shine a light on this. Plans are just that plans. If there is will, there are plenty of regulations to invoke to stop specific developments or revisions to developments that is against existing residents. Hopefully it is just Low density residential

Thank you for highlighting the miss.

If the approvals of Bukit Lanjan was way before during 2010 and 2011, then basically Foresta and Seresta are doing misleading marketing when to refer to the forests as reserves
E.g.

No issues. Its a long report and some of the approvals were done when certain parties are in power.

Well basically they are still correct. There will be no changes to the Bukit Lanjan itself since most of the projects around Bukit Lanjan are done apart from the Armanee ones and the Exsim ones. If you compare it with The projects all around, most of the projects are in place - same as the pink and yellow colours in the reports.

Also, if you notice the report, they categorise everything above 400 to be high density. So basically, the Foresta / Seresta project is almost done. There "might" be another one beside Seresta but I doubt that it will happen since the main focus is now on the ones near the MRT station as it will have more impact in terms of $.

The main change now would be Armanee. By the looks of it, it will probably get new blocks and an access road will be directly from the highway. Definitely affecting the whole DP. Also, there is no mention of anything on the "proposed" roads by the D... projects nearby.

The price of Seresta baffles me. So many units for sale at Foresta nearby but no takers. All about 600-750K (460-480psf) yet subsales are poor.

But Seresta pricing at about 620-630psf. That's an increase of about 30% on the already inflated price of Foresta.

Future capital appreciation will be stagnant for many years.

Because foresta is well known for bad workmanship.

And for those who bought seresta, i believe capital appreciation is the last thing on their mind.

Hey guys, I just paid a visit to the site at 11th floor. It seems really high and I can have a clear view of BSD from up here. I really can't imagine someone who's staying level 30 and above as I am quite afraid of height. My SA gave me a rebate of 18k but as I see from the older post here u can get up to 30k rebate. Prices seems different because of the timeline or different appetite from SA? any SA here can pm me with the prices too so I may do some comparison. Im interested with TYPE A & B. Thank you!

I believe that the rebates changed due to the HOC. Some purchasers got certain rebates pre-HOC but some got lower rebates after HOC was inserted for their units. Which floors are you looking at?

I'm currently looking at lower floors like 9 - 14th floors. I was at the site which can access to certain floor only at the moment, so I was at 11th floor just now. Consider quite high for me already.

Ah okay. I will assume that you are not used to staying very high up then. I went to a friend's place at another project... 42 floors up. sweat.gif

Anyways, as long as you are comfortable, that's the most important thing. Found your SA yet?

yeah found one. Maybe because seresta is at the peak of BSD I reckon and the site's lift makes me feel even scarier even at 11th floor. lol.gif

Actually still okay. Not too bad after you "test" at foresta. It's not that near to the highway unlike some a lot of other projects. People getting units facing highway should try checking out foresta for noise level tongue.gif

u only can view the city view which is facing BSD for the site unit. tbh im quite amazed by the soundproof thingy ( dont know what is it call ) they install at the windows and the balcony sliding door. I am actually quite worried by the noise also but trust me, if everythings are close u barely can hear anything from the highway.

P/S: OF COURSE, u have to keep the windows and door close only u wont hear any noises. if u don't believe u may arrange an appointment with your SA for viewing. Cheers! smile.gif

Quick update:

I was at the site last weekend and it all seems good. Actually the Balcony for the units are quite big (a round table with at least 2 chairs). Not around the table but yeah all facing BSD.

Anyways, as the balcony quite wide and long, I doubt that there will be any sound issues - not that I notice any when I was there too. The show unit was the one facing Foresta by the way. Views are quite impressive and should be better as we go higher.

Saw the part facing Bukit Lanjan too and there are working on the waterfall, the facilities at the hill etc. Hence, not quite done.

Not going to comment on the work wise because it was a show unit.

Note: the walkways are spacious/wide since there are limited units per floor and there will be no gates for all units.

You can check with the agents and get around 30 minutes of time at the units. Type B and C1 only for now.

What about the brand of the sanitary ware in the show unit? Is it some branded one or cheapo brand like sericite?

Its air con, Kitchen cabinets + hood/hob + 1 water heater in the Master room. as per the SPA i believe - 4 aircon for most units (only type C gets 5).

From the unit - i saw panasonic air con / teka hood hob and I didn't check if there's water heater or not. icon_question.gif

Wow, not bad at all the brand. Looks good. Hopefully the build quality will be good, and they eliminate the mistakes they did with Foresta.

Block A

My initial plan is to look at Duplex but somehow when I'm on the site visit, the unit looks so small, especially the living area behind the staircase.
I've also visited Type B (a bit small, looks too normal for me) and Type C1 (double volume is the selling point) but due to C1 layout being "L" shape(living, kitchen, dining), the impression that the unit gives me is crampy area.

Back to showroom and the sales agent bring me to see C2, which is the straight layout (living, kitchen, dining) and I prefer this kind of layout. That's why I've chosen C2

The rest basically almost the same thing

Hi just wanted to ask what developer discount did you get? Just went to the showroom recently, love the project, but the number of negative issues about foresta is kinda scary for block C and D. By the way did the SA informed that the bridge to the hill is only for seresta, but from some pics shows like there is a passage at the side... not sure if outsiders or foresta residence can come into that area.. anyone can confirm that? Thinking of purchasing soon

I think the discount quite standard 10% +10%

From what I see bridged to the hill is for Seresta only. Foresta have the similar jungle trail on the same slope of hill but it's not connected.
The only way outsider can come in is they hike the forest Not sure what kind of security they will place in order to prevent them tho.

Here's my simple honest answer :

1. I'm very familiar with this area (even I'm not living in it. I'm living just beside this Sri Damansara). I've eat my breakfast/dinner for the last 20 years here
2. I prefer the traffic settings. I always compared it to Desa Park City (I don't like to go home stuck in jam together with majority that doesn't live there)
3. Nature view (I've bought the hill view. Not the city view. But the city view is not bad also)
4. My son's school nearby
5. Nearby settings (Not too far or too close from convenience store)
6. 6/7 units per floor
7. Low dense (200+ per block)

Below are my 2 cents worth of personal opinions. (If offended, I'm sorry)

I know nowadays 9 out of 10 SA or developer will try to win you guys over by bombarding all the "quotes" and "conveniences", mainly because they target investor. Reason being investor look at numbers. They don't bother whether the place got 10,000 units high dense, etc. As long as rental can yield profit or break even = guaranteed sales close.

Own stay buyers = fussy buyers. They will view units, take time to consider, ask a bunch of questions and most likely will not even bother putting down booking.

I've view few projects and let me put down my opinions here

1. Damansara Central Park - I don't like the master plan. It's too high dense for own stay. I don't want sacrifice everything else for conveniences. The waterfall? The SA told me it's not man made, but only available when raining. (Who da heck view waterfall when it's raining?) The large park? It's a public park. (Imagine the outside traffic coming in, then imagine Kepong Metro Park by MRR2). The mistakes they do is they suddenly bring up multiple projects with almost similar layout.

2. Mahogany Residences - Layout too small for me.

3. Alstonia (Rahman Putra) - Low Dense, Resort style. Entire surrounding not bad. But the traffic is bad. Especially there's only 1 road leading in/out

4. EcoWorld Grandeur (Puncak Alam) - Because the SA is the developer itself, the SA don't even want layan me. End up me myself have to ask the SA for brochure (WTF doh.gif ). Aside from this, the project is already nearing final phase. Clubhouse no swimming pools and this is a big no-no.

Of course this is all my opinions only. Take it if your feel ok. If offended just ignore this post entirely.

It all boils down to whether u want conveniences (go down can shopping mall/eat type of mixed development) or the other way around.

The SA told me it's not man made, but only available when raining. (Who da heck view waterfall when it's raining?) The large park? It's a public park. (Imagine the outside traffic coming in, then imagine Kepong Metro Park by MRR2). The mistakes they do is they suddenly bring up multiple projects with almost similar layout.

2. Mahogany Residences - Layout too small for me.

3. Alstonia (Rahman Putra) - Low Dense, Resort style. Entire surrounding not bad. But the traffic is bad. Especially there's only 1 road leading in/out

4. EcoWorld Grandeur (Puncak Alam) - Because the SA is the developer itself, the SA don't even want layan me. End up me myself have to ask the SA for brochure (WTF  doh.gif ). Aside from this, the project is already nearing final phase. Clubhouse no swimming pools and this is a big no-no.

Of course this is all my opinions only. Take it if your feel ok. If offended just ignore this post entirely.

It all boils down to whether u want conveniences (go down can shopping mall/eat type of mixed development) or the other way around.

Let me chip in a bit since I also got a unit for own stay there.

My views:

1. City view/forest view - either way it will be good (even for city view - there are only landed in front of you (unless there's another project near the traffic light area. For now, L&G is busy with their plan at the old clubhouse area).

2. Love the fact that its connected to nature (the only worry is on the maintenance but we'll see).

3. Low density - 4 - 5 lifts serving 6/7 per floor (although fees might be high but it's a give or take).

4. Size - just big enough even if my parents/my siblings want to stay in from time to time.

Also, I managed to go to a unit in Foresta (Block A) and I feel that its very much okay. Can't really say the same on the issues with the C & D though. But from what I've heard, the ones in the JMB are trying their best to manage Foresta well and proper.

One of the things that I didn't like is.. the tandem parking though. Not that convenient unfortunately.

As for me, I've viewed various units around and I finally got my decision to go for Seresta instead.

1. Ativo - Nearest project to compare (really liked the project, convenient with the upcoming MRT 3, was looking at the 2 different types and made a booking and the biggest in size... way over budget). The buyers should be very happy how the whole project ended up with the VP going on.

2. Alix - Similar to the above - liked the plan and the layouts but didn't really enjoy the location (price wise not bad too).

3. Damansara Central Park - I actually forgot which one I was looking at but it was one of the earlier phases. Don't like the whole masterplan (I'm staying pretty close to the project) but have to give it to them, the price wise was something that attracted a lot of the buyers/investors. For personal stay - no thanks for me.

4. The Era - Phase 1. Quite convenient to where I was working at but the traffic congestion there. Crazy. Also, There are 4 more upcoming blocks so.. mixed development with the convenience but the density itself is another matter.

5. Arunya - This one a bit special. Saw the launch at the shoplot, the whole masterplan etc is a very interesting to see and if they manage to get the whole thing up and running, then it might make the whole area lively. The congestion to Jalan Ipoh side will still be there but who knows?

There were a few more but that's the above 5 for now.

THanks a lot for the feedback too. For forest view, it is not available for type A right? It is only available for those bigger size?

Agree on the ativo price, its too pricey. In fact, the psf is even higher in some KL hotspot area.

If I remember correctly, only Type C and the Duplex. Don't think Type B also has them. But city view is unobstructed so still nice on way or another. My current place... night view is forest so basically pitch black. tongue.gif Seresta should be well lit with the things going on though.

Ativo is pricey (comes with almost everything though) but with looking at the designs and the latest review by Sean Tan - Looks very good indeed. Hopefully, Seresta would be the same too.

@ry8128 i suggest you book an appointment for the site visit if it's still available.

The site visit to actual units are the one that changed my mind from "not interested" to "damn interested"

you can pm me also if you want. I can pm you the SA agent's phone number i dealt with.

If I'm not mistaken, Ativo is around priced around RM1000 per square feet. If you bought Ativo, you might need to suffer for 2-5 years (probably) while they construct their alternative main road and also their other phases.

Azelia Residence are a victim while exiting the residence and now Ativo joined in as entrance vitcim at the Ativo Plaza there. sweat.gif
TA Global should think of this issue first before starting another phase. haha

Yep. The price is there. The alternative main road and the plan would take a few more years down the road. The unit I booked was actually facing DPC too. Basically got out due to the size and now... I am having a "good time" planning my unit in advance before handover

Pros and cons of such entrance/exits. Inside and secluded but for convenience wise, some people might not like it as much.

Hi everyone. Just signed my SPA recently and happen to found this lowyat discussion. So this project was meant to complete during Q2 2022? Now claiming to be complete on Q4 2022. Is there any chance it will be postponed again? Went to onsite visit last week and don't feel like they can make it by Q4 this year. sad.gif Hope i'm overthinking. too many abandoned projects recently.

Actually yes. But Covid happened. This project still got workers etc. A lot of ongoing projects that got affected by Covid also postponed their VP dates. My friends' projects are other places also affected by 3 - 6 months.

A lot of the units has their A/C + cabinets built-in already apparently. Most likely its the facilities that needs to be settled now.

Can say that it got progress but slow. My SPA also stuck at developer site for 1 month+ liao. Called up the lawyer last week and they are actually in the midst of renewing their license.

This is the photo I took 2 weeks ago. Seems like not much different from the outlook. But the developer is Land & General, no point to get worried tho haha. Hope it can be completed without any further postpone!

One of the buyers. But I've not seen anyone else sharing any owners group yet.

Also, I was at Foresta so from that angle and the slope you can actually see your air-con for Block A. Also... loan was disbursed few months ago for the interior. tongue.gif

If I remember correctly, the type B-01 at tower A faces Foresta, while the type B-07 at tower A faces Park City.
I myself am more interested in type C, but if I were to go for type B, wouldn’t want to be facing Foresta.

If I'm not mistaken

Type B all faces the NS highway. only the 2nd room's windows are either facing Foresta, or in between Block A and B

The only 1 that can benefit all the views are Block B type B-07. Overall all still able to enjoy the Sri Damansara City View

Type B all faces highway. < This is correct. It's just a difference between which side it is facing. It's more like a preference thing. Sun whole day or not. Foresta view or not.

Went to the sales gallery a few days ago. Mainly Type B and Type C1 units available.
Am torn between the two… type C1 slightly bigger (+ double volume ceiling) but L&G offering better rebates because of the view (facing another tower, into facilities).
Type B slightly smaller, less rebates, but unobstructed view of the city.

Any thoughts, guys?

Is there a possibility to create a mezzanine level in type C1? If so, that’s potentially a good value add.

Depending on your living style, are you chill at home often and will you look outside? Otherwise I will suggest Type C1, since the package is good and the double volume ceiling heights are allow you have another mezzanine floor. I have purchaser plan to make it his own sweet gaming space.

Oh wow, cool. Not sure though if developer allow us to build a platform/mezzanine floor there 😅

I’m in a bit of a quandary, because I like the layout/space in C1, but I also like the unobstructed views in B.

Yeah it's workable but need to get approval from management.

My share is I will pick C1 as the layout is very unit which not a common product in market, especially if you realise the corridor to the rooms. I like that privacy, your visitors won't see your rooms and you can put your trophy or awards along the corridor make it become your hall of fame hahaa

Apart from the difference in the side views from the bedroom as mentioned before, type B 01 is beside the refuse room. I suspect that may play a role too.

Thanks the advice, Jacky.
What’s your take between C1 02 and C1 08 at tower A?
Balcony at 02 faces Foresta, balcony at 08 faces Seresta Tower B.

Ideally C1 08 at Tower B would be best (unobstructed view from the balcony, also possibly better daylight) but it would be stretching our budget quite a bit.

Ermmm...I'm not sure how much stretch it is, if it just a few cup of starbucks per month then is fine, but if it's affect your living cost then probably don't let yourself fall into the struggle cause coming bank interests will increase. Better prioritise on need than want

For me the side view or not is not an issue for either C1 or C2 because the most important view for me is from balcony. (Master bedroom / Bedroom 2 gets the same view also)
I spend more time sitting in living room than bedroom. And most of the time I won't open the curtain in the room due to privacy also.

Of course C1 08 at Tower B are the best but what if there's another high-rise coming up beside Seresta? sweat.gif

If you have extra bullet (not spare!) to shoot go ahead, otherwise don't stretch.

Thanks for the advice, guys!

Also, I’ve never stayed this close to a forest before. Will bugs/pests be an issue? If yes, will paying more for a higher floor make any difference or is that not worth the extra money?

I reckon once you’re past a certain point like 20th floor then bugs aren’t really an issue.

Anyone went for site visit recently? How's it doing inside, not really done much on the outer part cry.gif Was expecting the painting is at least done before October. Or normally they will finish the painting at last?

Whoever has experience with construction, can share whether the progress of Seresta is healthy or no? It's at Stage 2E now (last updated September 8).

I visited the site a couple days ago, painting no where near completed both inside and out. Not sure how the facility decks look like, saw the workers working on them a few weeks ago.

Developer said will VP in Feb 2023, I’m skeptical if everything can be done on time 😅

Yeah quite slow.
I'm still waiting my S&P to be signed by them.

Maybe will call law firm again to ask in 1-2 weeks time

I think broadband wise KL Selangor are quite matured already.
The problem is the mobile connection recently very bad after they discontinued their 3G broadcast.

Yep. At least Seresta is moving although a bit slow. Some projects move even slower or not moving at all. Too many projects, too little workers.

On a positive note, more time to survey for furniture.
Still torn between getting ID or not.

Found a lot ID but most of them are not flexible.

Most likely will end up DIY. The only one needed help is wardrobe + tv cabinet

Cool. What type of unit is yours?

Was thinking of getting ID input too, hoping to find a company that will handle ID + construction. When would be a good time to engage ID? After VP and after defect rectification?

Actually... there's covid exemption period + you need to check when is your booking date. 36 months after...

Actually a lot of big cos have the same prob. Manpower. The risk are always on the smaller ones or those not protected under HDA.

Some people do it straight after collect keys so got time to plan but sometimes the drawings and designs will need time so it might delay.

For some, they do it even before VP especially those projects with the online layouts etc. Nowadays its very convenient to do those. The reason is... once its finalised, they can just proceed to the measurement when they take the keys and custom made cabinets etc can start work directly.

Mine are C2
I think you can engage ID now, because by the time you got VP, getting and ID mans you need to wait 6 more months before you can move in.

Whole process most makan time is the design. Unless you not fussy type the ID ppl cincai design and you OK with it. Haha.
Constructions and purchasing furniture normally not that much time taken.

Normally it depends but since block B is newer and taller, its common to be different for different blocks.

From the SPA drawing, the view of Bedroom 1 in Type B Layout on Block A are not blocked, but they likely won't be able to view the mountain side because that is still blocked by Block B

Type C2 08 and C1 08 however are partially blocked by Block B due to the unit are directly below the link bridge between Block A and B

There was two rounds of extension requested by developer to push back VP date:

1st Extension (21 October 2021) : 167 Days
2nd Extension (14 June 2022) : 304 Days

If I’m not mistaken 1st extension push back the VP date to Q4 2022 (est. Dec). Now with 2nd extension seems like VP will be pushed back to Q3/Q4 2023. 😢😢

Actually the LAD still depends on when people placed their bookings. Not so nice for the earlier purchasers though.

Anyways, the latest month they gave for VP now is in April 2023 so hopefully it works by then. Better late than never.

Yeah, from the SPA date if not mistaken. Again yes, better late than never. Also I don't want them to rush the work and end up like Foresta.

Most of the duplex sold quite fast. I suspect they are those who want to flip when the market recovers.

Yeah, if not mistaken I saw somewhere they going to build a bridge from the current StarGrocer to 8trium so that it's connected to MRT

And the plot beside is their old clubhouse plot that will be rebuild along with their other new phases. This and alongside Ativo, the new phases there will benefits all the commercial conveniences in Ativo and the new commercial building that StarGrocer resides now

I asked one of the sales staff from L&G regarding this, but he said there are no plans to build a third phase next to Seresta.

Dunno if can trust his word for it haha.

This is an article done by PROPCAFE in 2013. "The 11 blocks of high rise condo development will be divided into 4 phases with Phase 1 (4 blocks), Phase 2 (2 blocks), and Phase 3 and 4 (3 blocks each). These 11 blocks will be built on 21 acres of class 1 and class 2 land, whereas the remaining 21 acres of class 3-4 land will be kept as it is with above mentioned forest facilities". Foresta (P1) being 4 blocks, Seresta (P2) being 2 blocks.

According to my SA, looks like phase3 and 4 will be at the end of the road. It's along but it's not beside. It's nearer to the Foresthill Damansara.

But it's not confirmed. What confirmed is the Land beside current StarGrocer might have 1 upcoming high-rise soon

Hard to say for now. I also heard about the 3 & 4 but that might take a longer time after the whole project around flo is completed. The service apartment, hotel, etc etc there.

It is "KL" only on paper, end of the day - the local council is MBPJ and the land office is PTG Selangor.

Ada "KL" sounds more harum kan laugh.gif If in doubt, use Google maps! BSD is truly OUTSIDE of the KL border (officially recognized by the govt bodies - such as JPN), and as per JPN, falls under Selangor.

On the side note... road is done, security house with aircon is done and... last 3 stages to disburse! VP STAGES!

Damn nice the green facilities that is within the forest reserve itself. For those who love nature, this is true heaven (since its within your home itself). Don't need to leave your condo to enjoy the fresh air of the forest.
That's certainly the highlight of this development for me.

Damn nice the green facilities that is within the forest reserve itself. For those who love nature, this is true heaven (since its within your home itself). Don't need to leave your condo to enjoy the fresh air of the forest.
That's certainly the highlight of this development for me.

Recently one of my friends condo increase maintenance fees by 50%++, her condo facilities is not very luxury, and total units around 500+. Can't imaging the maintenance cost for Seresta.

Starting will be low but later sure will increase alot especially for Seresta. Their facility area is too big for 450+ units to bear on 0.35sen/psf. Especially now with inflation so high everything has gone up by 50-100%. Those with the bigger units gonna suffer paying the maintenance.

Nah, the facilities here is perfectly manageable, nothing excessive. I've seen many other ones which really need much more maintenance. Having lots of facilities does not equate to higher maintenance. Higher maintenance ones that those that need frequent refurbishment or regular upkeep. Take for example those with nice landscaping with a big field with real grass, where you need a gardener(s) to water and trim the plants daily. Or even concierge service at the lobby. Manpower is expensive.

Damansara Seresta's facilities, together with the number of units, in my opinion, is perfectly OK.

electricity tariffs is a pain. but being residential strata titled, some cost shavings there. the electricity to run the pumps will be one of the main things to look at. Landscaping is not as cheap as you think, it's a chunk of cost there to ensure the leafy landscape gets taken care of esp in the first years before the young plants get established. Another big cost is the cleaning and maintenance of the forest path, as having a walk in the middle of the jungle entails clearing leaf litter, fallen branches, as well as to ensure the walking platforms resist being worn out by the lush and humid environment of the forest/jungle.

Next, would be the retaining wall at the back of Seresta, JMB/management would need to brush up on the standards and maintenance of the retaining wall, and scrutinise MBPJ so they follow standards maintaining this wall. These will be the things top of mind for the residents here
