25% to 35% increase for Block B would be fair given the low price now and they would be spending more if underpass instead of a ramp is to be constructed, but they could throw in a 10:90 scheme...

Taijie Kim,

Actually there are more gal purchasers of Zest than guy purchasers, just that you guys are not aware. Most gal purchasers are shy shy and would not surfaced publicly but my group definitely has more gal purchasers than guy purchasers....

Added on March 12, 2009, 12:22 pmBack to the Zest...anyone heard about the 15% to 20% increase in prices for Block B?

If their show unit is tastefully done with top notch ID and good quality specs and fittings are given, coupled with confirmation (in black & white) that LRT station is right at its doorstep, 30% increase should be no problem. If confirmation (in black & white) that Block C's units are being sold overseas or in Korea at RM380psf, even a 50% increase from our original prices is not a problem at all.....the key is must see black & white first...

Steffi Jie, you still in the office? How's traffic? Just came out from meeting...

Well, TT increased its prices for shops by RM200K on the same day they purportedly confirmed the LRT station being right at their doorstep (Hap Seng). While I have yet to sight any black and white, TT did increased the prices of its shops by RM200K even though they were only 50% sold...Honestly, if got black and white regarding the station being right in front, the prices will never be so cheap...more like from RM320K and not RM220K for the serviced apartments...

Added on March 14, 2009, 11:22 amMorning Kim jie,

I have to say this Zest has generated quite an interest from the number of posts and viewings of this thread. Bearing in mind it has yet to be officially launched and we are facing an economic recession! This alone I think proves that there is something very right about this project!

Welcome, welcome, to this big family!

The rates our group will be getting are better than market rates because we are applying as a group. RHB is not able to give special rates if you apply separately. PM me your contact if interested.

Congrats! Pool view or KLCC?

Bro, the onus lies with you, the purchaser/borrower, to ensure that the loan is disbursed on time....for those agents and bank officers, once you have signed the SPA or the loan docs, they would have earned their commission, so, no obligation to chase for you....

Honestly, sales agents and bank officers do not usually stay with the developer or the banks for a long time, so, it is best that you secure the best rates from a bank you're comfortable with, irrespective of sales agents' recommendation.

Our group consists of purchasers ourselves and we are negotiating for the best rates and terms as a group. Usually a group would have stronger bargaining power as opposed to an individual borrower.

We have submitted to RHB as a group. The bank has approved some at BLR-2.15% ZEC and some even BLR-2.2% ZEC depending on individual profile. Wanted to submit for PBB as well but rates not as good. Also please note that generally PBB's lock-in period for early settlement penalty is longer by around 3 years because the 5 years lock-in starts from the final disbursement upon VP where as RHB's lock-in starts from the 1st disbursement. Not sure about OCBC's but most banks' lock-in period starts from the final disbursement (VP). Check their letters of offer.

The Zest is fast becoming the hottest newly launched property (or about to be launched) during this economic
recession...its developer must be damn happy at times when the largest developers like SP Setia, Sime, Sunrise, I&P etc are struggling to move their products even with all those innovative incentives...

Welcome, feifei. Don't worry, no rules against applying to as many banks. Do submit your applications soon to all banks willing to provide end financing for this project because I heard banks are starting to reduce the BLR- rates,ie. from BLR-2.something to BLR-1.something due to recent drop in BLR. I have a group applying for special group rates and if you are interested, you must also do so asap. PM me. CIMB is also not bad. Don't think OCBC's loan is full flexi like MortgageOne in Stanchart.

Our community is growing by the day...

Same same one...I added the earlier one on bzbug's behalf...
