you sound like an educated person but you don't seem to get what others are saying...
KK was under Gamuda and Gamuda lack innovative township planning..
AI is under I&P and TTDI...different companies, different township planning style... You look at how successful Bandar Kinrara and Alam Damai for I&P and TTDI.
SA was also the same situation as AI a few years back. Now you see where SA now... why can't AI be the same?

Ya, back to topic better....

Honestly i hope the mall is a success, because i am SA regular visitor....tesco n giant is just too dry to spend my time.

Hi..
I m newbie for SA projects..
I just booked a unit in Mimosa 1..I liked the layout ..and the location ALTHOUGH for now this part of the Shah Alam lacks public transport facilities..
I m going to apply for loan but some sales agent told me that 5/95 is rarely approved and usually its 90% ..
anyone has any suggestions about this ..

Do you happen to know whats the critiria or requirement for 95/5? I think age of the borrower contributes a big part.

These are for the low-medium income ppl la haha ,.. 
I think 2012 is going to be a year for goreng affordable props 

low cost apt for low income via application is for price below 70k I think...this one is mid cost.....
but u r right. all will try to goreng this budget type.
now, only people with balls of steel will goreng 6-800k houses paying 30pc down.

this one is not under najis or pr politic, all can buy. just register to ballot.
2 types 800 n 900 sqft.  gng, dmc, pool but not condo std la...
total 1600 units. can expect dev own staff prebook.
also possible block sale to gomen for the health institute nearby.
biz people may also buy to house workers for the coming mall.

setia alam welcome center, big white building along main road.
i registered yesterday, log book very full!

Only 1500 units, 3000 registrants, some registrants buy multiple units. Even no dibs will still sold out like  hot cake.

i agreed the view that afforable apartments in SA will be gorengéd by investors in 2012.....if the prices remain below $200k.

congrats to the early owners of Akasia!

the township is growing and as well as the house price. According to the selling price in the market
1) 20x70 already asking for selling price at 600k with built up around 2100sf
2) 20x65 with built up 1900sf selling around 550k
3) according to the plan for all the new phase coming there will be no more unit for 20x70 or smaller
    (and the price is definitely a curiousity of all)
As a Real Estate agent as well as a home buyer i believe the Bandar Bukit Raja, which is less than 5 min drive to Setia Alam, is Alternate solutions to home buyer. If u are a home buyer looking for house in meru and setia alam area but not willing to compromise on quality.

According to the selling price in the market for Bandar Bukit Raja

2) 22x75 with built up 2100sf selling around 600k and many mores
