Able to get a quote on a developer unit at around 200k (1044sqft) but at lowest floor.

Based on my own evaluations,

Pros
- Freehold and strata title is out
- Quite convenient, near to shops, banks and food courts
- 3 carparks (1 single carpark, 1 double carpark)
- Good facilities.
- Quite clean and not so noisy.
- Mid high dense, around 550units
- KL view

Cons
- High maintenance fees, 20sen/sqft
- Not so good layout (long, not so square layout, kitchen and master bedroom small)
- Carpark at center of all blocks, so need to cross the 'bridge' everytime.

May I know anyone stay here and any opinion on this condo?
How is the management team?

It is developed by Mahajaya and it is in Cheras next to Yulek.

Stayed there before, nice place, one of the best condo in that area. Huge swimming pool is a plus.

Can get a bit noisy coz its uphill and when those lorry pass by, they have to rev to climb the hill so you'll hear it all day and night if your unit facing the road.

There are some people staying there that you don wanna cross path with but they don do anyone any harm. Just mind your own business and everyone will live peacefully.

went there with my bf yesterday to have a look of the condo surroundings. it's really a peaceful location. and Clean. and seeing around 5-6 security guards there and with card access to everywhere. But they never stopped us from going into the compound.. haha...

Anyway, It's under my consideration.

Anyone has any idea for a unit at Block J facing city? (3-6flr)
B/up: 850-1000sqf. Price below RM200k?

Hi all, im considering to buy a condo myself as well and has receive a call from an agent for venice hill 1538sft,Blck 10
4/3 bath ,Fully furnished by ID designer Chinese Owner ... so what do you all think ? beside that i've also seen bukit panda 2 which is Rm138,000.00 unfurnished and RM 168,000 for furnished but the kitchen is super small just a little bigger then a lift only.

I'm actually looking for a place in Cheras preferably freehold and near by lrt about 5 to 10 min drive, my budget is rm150K and the environment must be good. any recommendations ? the place is for own stay with my girlfriend.

Ketumbar Hill .. been looking at it .. few month ago its 250++k .. now its about 200++k ..
I am getting a place to stay not investment and i live in Yulek so this looks promising .. tongue.gif

Anybody know how the parking works ? i.e. 1 unit = 1 parking , 1 parking = $$$ buy / per mth

Pertama Residency is at 250k ... a bit expensive with no carpark rclxub.gif

Actually not this condo only ... a few more also ... i think small players are letting these off as after 5 years or old condo have stagnant value ... if not hot rental area
Too many condo in cheras area i think ... so its over supply already ... mid lvl and business people go for high value property for comfort and security ... leaving a lot unoccupied condo ... as you know mostly all condo in malaysia lack good management

As far as I know, the price in Ketumbar Hill condo keeps going up from my observation. (and also price of property in general, especially KL area).

So, I cannot really agree with the above statement icon_idea.gif

ketumbar hill and ketumbar heights side by side (almost).

whoa i didn't know about the suicide that happened in ketumbar heights. was it the same guy which came out in the newspaper - because gf left him? it's a tragic sad news. an expensive lesson for all. remember, there is always hope. sometimes, when we come to the end of ourselves, we should then start to look at someone bigger than us - our creator god - no problem too big for him.

200k seemed like a fair price for own stay in a mature area relatively close to KL city.
