I totally agreed with you.

Cursing people is a sin.

Added on August 24, 2009, 4:26 pmI have just bought a house in SA. Heard that the soil settlement issue earlier but i think that is only for the early phase.

For me and most of the people i suppose too are prefer a house with larger built-up of 1700sqft instead of 1400sqft.

And i am sure this is the market trend.

Added on August 24, 2009, 4:38 pmI almost bought a house in Alam Impian last year. Practical layout, good design & specious.

But i withdrew my booking after realised that the development is too slow and still in 1st phase after it was launched in 2006.

I&P house is excellent but the company is not aggresive enough.

come on arsenal
not everyone like u own many houses
u r not helping...

The folks are in the setiaalam.net. Most real house owners there. Good place to know more about the community.

Although, if you're looking for investor opinions, check out the http://www.myrealestate.com.my/viewtopic.p...=1845&start=575.

For cracks, (mainly older phases) some piling wwork is done by BSA to rectify affected households.

Latest luanch is Akasia apartments, launched last week - almost all taken up.

Sekolah Kebangsaan construction looking good.

A couple of other houses just VP, sub-sale prices are (suprisingly) high. Maybe once off as these were the earlier phases, but not sure if this sub-sale price gains will be is sustainable for future phases.

Expect Setia Avenue (Commercial center) to be VP soon.

A (new?) player has emerged North of Setia Alam, Anjung Sari giving interestingly low prices and a nice package, but developer risk unknown.

That's about it.

thanks kenny..im also in SARA Forum..no worries
as im also resident

So what happened to that manjitsingh, problem solved lesap begitu saja?

It's better to ask manjit or MyD to comment I don't really know...

But this I know, they have a scheduled meeting that runs every (month?) with some residents, BSA and MPP, and manjit attended the last one.

there is a meeting every month?
cool..

Yeah - it's a scheduled recurring meeting. Mainly run through progress of rectification, new customer issues, etc.

hmm..i let my land to settle almost2yrs after getting the keys..now onli doin reno

Just would like to know. what is VP?

Also errr can give more info on the Anjung Sari project???

Thx...

Goto SARA forums, all info there.

Hi chubbyken,

In simple terms, Vacant Possession (VP) just means the house has completed construction, afterwhich the developer will call you for inspection.
It's also important because, financially you're obliged to settle in full (if I recall correctly) upon VP.
Now, there're other terms such as Certificate of Fitness, which normally comes after VP.
I'm also not very pandai in this - so you'll have to google the exact details Maybe some taikors can assist here the actual definition.

For Anjung sari, yumyum77 is right most of the info is in the SA forum. I would encourage you visit the forum.
It's open to the public. There're quite some discussions on it. If you lose your way, there's always the "Search button in the forum:.
As a start, here's the link.

Heya,

Just to inform all potential buyers, these are the problems faced by me. I got a Semi-D unit in Setia Alam and I thought it was good but it turned out to be HELL. The customer care was just nice at replying and promising but no work is done. let me show u a statistic of the repair i have gotten.

Complaint 13 was just a simple door frame change out and door. In fact they have changed to a different specs and worst, the door replaced was infested with bugs/mites that will make holes in the door. Complaint for 6 months already but to no avail.


Gents,

if you would like to know more, please visit Jalan Setia Damai U13/16G , Jalan Setia Damai U13/16F and so on... talk to the people around and you will know more.

The house quality built by them from outside/appearance is appealing, but the integrity of the building has been compromised.

These are the few cases that has been happening in the neighbourhood.

- Car porch foundation was built without including steel mesh as reinforcement. I would say after staying for almost a year, at least 7 houses, car porch has terribly sunken. Then the contractor has to be mobilized and hacking, dirtying your place is almost certain.

- I have seen few houses here, the wall crack was bigger than 3 cms!!!! bear in mind, it's the wall, integrity of the house! imagine you are staying, if it collapsed, you won't see the light anymore. What i heard is that they tried to accelerate the projects that the piling,settling of the soil was compromised!

- My neighbour's house did not get the required repair and waited for ages.

-In fact, most of them already informed the tribunal of pembeli rumah. Few lawyers were engaged as well.

Gents,

Buying houses built by SP Setia? Think 100 times before you decide. Go make some survey. I'm suffering at the moment.

Thanks,

Angry soul conned by SP Setia.

damn... sounds real bad... my dad bought a place there...
now gotta let him know of these issues...

this is sad..but after so many complaints..dont tell me setia alam dev are not into this?

that sounds bad reputation from sp setia ...

but there are other plus point , if you dont mind the location ...

Bro,

Not need to be so angry. If u cannot get any result from the staff and even the manager, then make an arrangement to see their GM.

I always doing this when i can't sort the matters out. No point talking to the "small fish & prawn", you only waste your "mouth water".

For such a serious problem for so many tenants and buyers in Setia Alam..only 2 complain. Which are true?

if you don't mind the township next to Klang , jln meru . i think should be fine. i can see the bright side of setia alam .
