I am also looking for a new unit in MK for own stay, 'real MK area' I meant. Check out Pentamount (location-wise so so, surrounded by Kampong) yet was told that almost fully sold. sad.gif
Also visited Pavillion Hilltop, quite like the location (very exclusive) and impressed by the landscape. However, the designs of the metal gates installed by the existing owners along the common corridor really turn me off, remind me of low costs flats. sad.gif

Be honest, I am not familiar with Mont Kiara or rather KL as well, as I have been away from Malaysia for many years. But based on my last two visits to MK, I am impressed by the ambient of the area. Thinking of moving back to MK in 1-2 years time.

At the meantime, house haunting is going on..... wish me good luck.

Pentamount is also on the border of MK and Kg Segambut Dalam. It sold very well because of it being cheap relative to the size of apartment you are getting. Good luck paying for the maintenance fees though.

Easiest if you list what is important to you, such as whether you want to be in proper MK, what you need to be close by and ultimately your budget.

Personally prefer the older ones over those newer ones as it feels more spacious and most of the initial flippers have long since disappeared.

Yes, you are right that Pentamount is also at the border of MK and Kg. Segambut. I actually looking for slightly newer if not brand new development as I am conscious about the wear n tear of the some of the old towers (especially the latent defects due to aging or lack of maintenance). Good designs and common facilities (well-equipped gym, nice swimming pools) are important to me as I believe that is what i am paying to live in a condominium environment.

The original condos built by Sunrise before it was taken over by UEM are mostly well maintained and surprisingly aged fairly well presumably because the low occupancy rates these buildings had when it was new.

Yeah... Any new properties in MK to recommend? How about Arcoris? Is it a good place to be at?

Nice place but pricey which isn't surprising considering who designed it.

I don't remember there being any new units from the developer.

How about Mah Sing or Sime Darby properties? Any recommendations?

I don't follow anything by Mah Sing but from a few of their projects build quality has left a lot to be desired especially for something that was supposed to be high end.

Sime Darby's development will always carry a brand premium therefore you have to hold it for a longer time to realize any capital gains but you do get a good product most of the time and they always adopt a customer is always right stance when it comes to defects and rectification. I am guessing if you can consider Trinity Pentamont then you do have lots of choices.
