Can someone share the expected COCR based on the prevailing rental around that area (-10%) and 90% loan? This seems to be an interesting place and if the rental market is there, the is a possiblity of equity increase too then this is thumbup.gif

Who are the target market for rental? For TPM folks there are quite a few nearby eg Riana etc. For Puchong mebe a little far?

Thank you.

Went to the sales office a while back to confirm a few things discussed already, as mentioned by the sales ppl:

1. Ramp will be there, it's a prerequisite for the site being approved.
2. LRT will be there, it's supposed to be running in the middle of the road (as in the centre), but since the ramp will be built at the centre, the ramp is pushed to the side. The LRT station is about 100m away across the street.
3. Phase 3 will be launched in April. Price increase expected around RM10-15k.

Shoplots are selling like hotcakes! The retail office pulak not so hot. Hope this helps.

Pai and Phoeni, did you guys get any units there?

meejawa, do u mean that since the ramp will be built at the centre, the lrt station would be pushed to the side or...?  blink.gif

Oops my mistake. The LRT is moved to the side because the ramp will be at the centre smile.gif, and the LRT is confirmed because this issue was brought up in their discussion with kerajaan. The exact location is the HAP SENG STAR building in the big model. (there are some errors there, like where's petronas, why Giant so close etc.)

when will the LRT complete? Anyone know?

I didn't ask, but as someone pointed out, confirmed 12 station in 14 km. I'd say the LRT swings my decision to put my moola down here. Else it's just like any other investment, probably I won't give a second look. So I really hope it'll be there.


Added on March 29, 2009, 7:12 pmI have a question: why is heron's rental so low? Ain't it supposed to be a 5 star residence if I remember correctly? Also the mgmt has actually following the forum and is taking steps to improve their mgmt there smile.gif Anyway, since we can have JMB after one year of VP, we should really push for that if mgmt still sucks then.

no la, all the while the sales rep had informed me that they'll be releasing block B around april / early may...not few mths later. anyway, they would most probably bring fwd the launching too if their initial plan was to launch a few mths later considering the good take up rate of over 75% as of last sat noon.


Added on March 30, 2009, 10:34 am
from what i heard, price for the remaining block C units will increase as well in tandem with the expected increase in block B prices...but dun quote me!  whistling.gif

it'll be cool though if block B is launched this weekend. can c how much my unit has increased in value if what i said above materialises...haha brows.gif
*
Price increase will be around 10-15k, but no freebies. Block a en-bloc to Korean investors, so will be interesting what will happen when it's completed smile.gif

The showroom is not even up and ready yet...

If you noticed the shoplots in front, on the right middle corner one, it's a 2-lot combined into one. That'll be their HQ, and showroom will be built at the ground floor. That will happen later smile.gif

Block C facing KLCC may be the best view there is, but if you look at block B, It has KLCC and pool view as well. Don't be conned by the back facing block B which face the golf course. You won't get to see it from all the low cost and a hill there. Also, there's a oxidation(?) pond but which will be covered soon.

eugene jk, yes I'm out, for now smile.gif Actually I'm the 1st for Block B icon_idea.gif

Lemme be the devil's advocate here. In other threads, it's said that the LRT was approved to be in the center, but since the ramp also will be there, it's shifted a bit to the back. Then I went to the sales office, they said because the ramp is in the middle, the LRT is shifted to the side. Mana satu ni?

I'm pretty much convinced the ramp will be there, but LRT? I saw the agreement they showed for the ramp, but LRT..nada..It's still abt 50-50. I REALLY want this to happen believe me. And if and when it does, big congrats to all vested ones smile.gif

Hi everyone, my gf and I went to have a look at the sales office last weekend, we quite like to The Zest location and the price also within our budget.

Our only worry is the developer reputation and capability, i mean this project is 2 years down the road and with the current economy situation, we are a bit skeptical. Has anyone here or those who has purchased a unit did any background search of the developer?

From what i know, their past project is only The Heron and also PT19 , both also deep inside Puchong and can considered a small scale project. Really hope someone can enlighten us on this.
*
This is actually one of my concerns too. Going through forums on Heron don't give me one bit of confidence. But at least they acknowledge the existence of the problems, but it was really not a pleasing existing state. Even a reputable company like Tan and Tan is having problems in managing their Seri Maya.

They may buck the trend and do better with Zest, but it's something I personally would not want to risk. The good thing at least, is the low entry point, so that should offset some of the bad things.

Another one is Block A, sold en bloc to Korean investors. This will have better view compared to Block B I think. And also the back has full view of golf course. When all 3 blocks are completed, there'll be a rush of supply to the market there. You can see what happens when that happens, in KLCC and Mont Kiara now. But it also can be a good thing especially when condition improves 3 years later.

Then again, for an unknown developer? I really don't know mate. I'm pretty confident the ramp will be there upon completion, but the LRT may take longer. Not the fault of developer; it's our dearest government. 2011, 2013, this Aug? Which one???

Does that help you one bit? wink.gif

I just booked a unit in Block B last week, in the middle of applying my loan now smile.gif

Regarding to block A, I had asked my Agent about that when I placed my booking. He told me that whether they are selling the whole block A to Korean or not is very depending. If the sales and response is very good for Block C & B. Their boss MIGHT NOT sell block A to Korea but will open Block A for selling here. So, I have a feeling that it is just a marketing "trick", saying Block A been sold off to Korea is just to boost up the confident level of the buyers. There might not have such thing.

Anyway, they still have almost 3 years to go to sell off these 3 block....but of course the faster the better....cross fingers!

wtf? this kind if developer really pisses me off! that is of course if they are really doing all these to attract buyers...if they can "creatively telling the truth" on this, who knows what else they can come up with, or worse, the existing promises...??
