Want to check with buyers of this project. Mostly for own stay? Saw the whole projects layout etc. A lot of families there too during my time there. Everyone promoting the new block.

Looks like for own stay not for investment.

Yep. Looks more suitable for own stay.

QUOTE(ry8128 @ Jul 21 2020, 10:45 PM)
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.
*
Personally going around that area is okay. TA Avenue stores etc also also opening in a few months according to their FB.

I like this project but concern on workmanship as the developer got bad repo on damansara foresta. It's not like how they projected, a lot of issues, lift issues, poor maintenance. Hesitating to purchase.i really like the serenity and escape from city life and relax.
*
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?

We bought block B, type C2 (if not mistaken, forest view). Do you bough one too?
*
Yes. Block A. Type B. Didn't fancy the high ceiling. And correct, type C = forest views.

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.

Wanna ask how about the developer's workmanship? Heard a lot of foresta owner said that Foresta is not good workmanship.
Worry about Seresta will come out with poor workmanship.
*
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.

As an Seresta owner too, I'm setting up a whatsapp group and google forum group for the Seresta owners. Please reach out to me to be added into the group - whatsapp to +601114309577.
You will need to provide evidence of ownership - a snapshot of S&P (not offer letter) main page with name, unit number.

I've received the documents but I've not joined yet lol. tongue.gif

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.

Just sign my s&p last week, but forget to take a picture for the info as the S&P not yet given me a copy.

Woot! Might take some time right?

*
Oh ya. for the kitchen, did they tell you the height is according to the show rooms / all the way up to the ceiling?

For now - not official yet, aircons should be panasonic, hood/hob should be Teka.

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

Seems like its not hot selling. Its launch for quite sometimes already, and yet <20% units sold.

Don't think that the site is even close to the actual numbers. 2019 also 30% completion, now still 30% completion. lol.

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

QUOTE
The Selangor government want to rezone the whole Bukit and forest reserve in to a development dead zone. https://www.facebook.com/1575795879305539/p...91935/?sfnsn=mo or search for Say No to DASH on Facebook. it is only in the stage where they're proposing, and the public can still voice rejection. Residents need to fill up the rejection form to stop this.

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.
