I am contemplating on Elmina Green vs Setia Alam Precinct 17. Visited the show gallery of Elmina, surprisingly quite many units still. I am impressed with the new township setup like the road works, lamp post used and even landscaping.

However, the price difference is slightly a stretch and giving the area is slightly further to my usual hang out places [damansara uptown, Bangsar, midvalley], ara Damansara.

1. Not sure is worth to buy here? - basically is my first house and own stay.
2. Read this topic found there is many Selangorku apartments and future HTC tower nearby? (wonder where is it?)
3. The lake garden concept on right north is nice, the worry is long term whether it will be maintained or left unattended?
4. Comparing with Setia Alam, the Elmina is 100k more. Since this is my long terms stay not sure really worth it?
I also went to look at the houses in Bkt Raja Klang but not really like the surrounding as I feel the township in terms of feel and maintenance like the road a bit poorer than Shah Alam.

Anybody has bought one unit here, appreciate if you guys can share why choose Elmina over others?

Only know why I'm not choosing Elmina & Precinct 17, not sure if you want to know as well tongue.gif

can you share your opinion here? Other ppl might be considering to buy there so need opinions from different perspective.
*
Yeah sure.
Setia alam precinct 17 - 18x65 size and near to cemetery which my family worry about fengshui haha
Elmina - middle of road tolls so no way to escape, flight depart and landed noise might present since near to subang airport
PS: Just my opinion smile.gif

always choose a location that at least have basic amenities ready.... in which elmina doesnt seems to be ready with all these... i mean there are shoplots at denai alam there... but there are no proper supermarket, no varieties of eateries, no more choices of other type of businesses like maybe clinic, car repair shop and etc.... and one more thing... sime darby is very slow in growing commercial activities....
*
Yeah that's true.
Anyway still depends on what's buyer like and main concern, can't control them to choose what to buy.

Initially I plan to buy a unit in Elmina due to the condusive and vibrant environment. I love those areas like Bukit Jelutong where people are moderate and professional. Looking at the environment, most people who bought the properties in Elmina are moderate + progressive + professional bunch of people with diverse ethnicity.

However, I have a second thought last weekend when I went for a quick jog at the Elmina park. I notice the park was dirty with mess from religious ritual at the lake park. Then, I notice few bunch of people drinking beer at the lake side in the evening (around 6pm). Bear in mind, there's heaps of family during this time having a stroll there. (with small kids!)

I notice there's a temple and few low cost flats/apartments nearby. Now I know where are these people coming from. This ruins everything with their third class attitude. This incident has changed my overall perspective to buy a unit here.
*
Those people might come from elmina itself too 😏

I am ok with it. Just that an agent called and say can rent out for RM2,000. I am quite skeptical. Anyone here renting out for higher?

I think rent room by room is possible

Like what bigman said, rent it room by room might increase the income but also means trouble increase..

I think most buyers choose Elmina because of landscape? Instead of DASH

I would say all ECO world products are not for investment, rather than own stay cause of the leasehold tenure, ECO Granduer is deep into Puncak Alam area and far from most urban cities. You should compare Elmina to Eco Ardence in Setia Alam instead.
*
Since you mentioned that all ECO world products are not for investment, why would ECO Ardence becomes an exception? hmm.gif

If you are familiar with SD township, they will take years to develop into a proper township with better commercial area and access to highways in years to come, as this is always SD strategy.

ECO strategy is always leasing the cheapest land, and build their expensive products on it and awe you with their sales gallery and landscape, because they are mostly looking at short term development because they plan to sell their products soon as possible.

I always asked them their future plans in 10 years, they only  mention more houses to be build but not facilities or commercial area as they do not have that strategy in mind for the long term game.

Investment is usually trying to buy a cheaper product with potential, and wait for the years to bear fruit while you wait for the township to develop.

10 mins of a shorter journey might look small to you, keep in mine for EA nkve is the only exit point they have to Subang and it that jams, that 10 mins becomes longer.

hmm... why u guys all have the patience to wait for commercials to come in and willing to wait up to magical 5-10 years or etc ya.... if at present the township is not providing even enough basic needs... and the pricing not exactly selling at 'basic' pricing... whats so special about it...?

for now... based on SP setia's footprint and tan sri performance for EM,ES,EG and etc... i think ecoworld is more aggressive in driving the commercials to succeed rather than just build build build and hope for the best... bear in mind... Sime sold all their commercial units and and wont assist the commercials to grow... its up to the owners who and how they wanna rent it out to and dont be surprise if all are just mamak and rm5 shops maybe with speedmart and 7 eleven only...

if take away freehold leasehold, you should only compare against eco grandeur where other than houses... there will be more commercial areas coming up... and the initiative that ecoworld try to take to ensure the commercials occupancy and able to get vibrant... u cant compare against eco ardence that tiny piece of land... the labs is the best they can do for commercial element of the project... bigger townships like eco sanctuary or eco grandeur are the benchmark for full scale masterplan...

if u did ask their future plans in 10 years... ask sime darby what will they do to ensure the commercials all taken up and to make the area vibrant... instead of just what is coming in the masterplan....

Hmm.. actually, as long as the buyers like it, who cares? smile.gif
One who loves the property he/she bought will has many reasons to accept it while one who dislike the property will also has many reasons to avoid it.
