Picked up my keys a few days ago. I’m very satisfied with the handover condition of the house. All the gardens are looking better and better, the clubhouse and the swimming are awesome. There is a few cosmetic defect and Ideal promise it will be rectified. No biggie deals.

@kotun

I also collected my key. TNB + PBA application form are ready for collection too. Can apply and start renovation soon.

@RevoWithin I’m the direct buyer and interested on your unit.Is it still available?If you do, please do call 0124129826

@Swan I’m the direct buyer and interested on your unit. Please do call me 0124129826

guys, when to form JMB to take over the management from Ideal?

Any idea when the CCC will be awarded?

Latest I heard from TR FB group. The latest TRANSACTED price of TR Type 22 is close 1.2mil. Hurry if you want to get a unit in TR. REHDA mentioned that G&G should command more premium and the price should be higher by 30-40%, compared to non G&G.

But we still need the CCC as one of the per-requisite to proceed official purchase.

Anyone know?

@Ying

Developer required to call AGM within 1 year from CCC date. Normally developer will wait until last minute. So, the 1st AGM could be somewhere around July/ August 2014. Until then, no official JMB can be formed.

@OwnStay

CCC obtained 3rd Sep 2013.

@kotun

I doubt the 1.2mil transaction price for smallest type 22. But I am sure that no problem for 1.1mil price tag.

@Bryan
1.18mil to be exact.

hi owner, direct buyer looking for three residence, facing south or north. contact 0164480183 if interested to let go, 10s

@kotun
crazy price man… but if true good for the seller, and i am wondering what make the buyer choose… TR

Bank valuer only 900k, look like got supply no demand for those called beyond 1mil

@Tokong
I’m a bit lost. You mean there are buyers who got SUPPLY of money, and owners who have no DEMAND to sell their property, right?

I’m getting an offer at least an offer per day, every time I enter TR.

TR has the best feng shui among the three. Another plus point is facing north and south. Facing north is the best, and 15k higher price compare to south during launching. The minus point is smaller size than Sathu and Dua Villa

@Tokong
curiously which bank and when was the valuation ?

OwnStay :
@Tokong
curiously which bank and when was the valuation ?

Today valuation based on hong leong bank

Bank value lower than actual transacted price, is not a news today? This is common issue for most of the properties. And the bank value is base on the pass transactions using the bank loan, specifically to the branch. This means, not only the bank value is different between banks, but also between branches.

@Tokong
Bank afraid of negative effects later, if they happen like earlier projects

@kotun no doubt a lot of buyers checking the price but how many successful case of transaction happen after seller open card 1.2mil for the smallest unit? It need to take few quarter for buyers to digest the 1mil threshold.

Bryan, bank loan value is base on past buy/sell transaction data? Then property valuer is out of job lo. If bank willing to give only 900k loan meaning that 300k need to folk out from pocket plus renovation 150k. At this uncertainty better keep cash and wait for opportunity.

This is all based all registered property valuer. Bank doesn’t value based on their own. Each bank branch have their own registered property valuer. Unless someone is filthy rich and bought the house over the market rate, then only the price can be a benchmark. Getting a 1Mil buyer not an easy feat for now.

@Tokong

If there are past loan record for the property at the bank, there are records of value from property valuers, for that property. I thought this is self explained and understood, and I don’t need to make it clear.

@Valuer

Right! banks only get that value from valuer before they decide how much loan to be given. What kotun disclosed it not an asking price. It is base on the offer received by 1 of the owners.

@kotun

Correct me if I am wrong.

As a matter of fact, the psychological $1mil price already breached few quarters ago.
You can see Southbay, Setia Green (well far away from 1mil infact)….even Setia Pearl Island also touching M.

$1.2M is the new benchmark now? Would it reach $1.5M in 3 years?

@cm
If u are OK to hack the wall, it is better to go for wired system. The key is don’t run the wires for sensors together with electrical wires. Leave wireless as the last option (e.g. don’t want to hack, already moved in but plan to install more points).

Hi, everybody. I couldn’t help but join in the fray. I agreed with OwnStay that the psychological 1M mark has long been breached and I would say it has become the threshold or entry point for new DS landed property launches on Penang Island. Whether it’s worth it or not is very subjective. At this point, no one can predict for sure how high Penang property prices are heading and how long would they take to reach there. But if you have the money, you don’t wait. With inflation and weakening of our ringgit, 3 to 4 k monthly installment will be affordable in no time.

As for the valuation of TR smallest unit, I think it’s fair for HL Bank to evaluate it at 900K, now a day, a buyer has to fork out at least 200 to 300K in order to buy a house that cost >=1M (renovation cost not included). If I intend to live in Sungai Ara area, then I don’t mind paying around 1 to 1.1M to get the TR smallest duplex unit, becasuse comparatively speaking, Ideal Haus had already asked for 950K when launched, with no DIBS, the interest for progressive payment of your loan secured to the developer would amount to about 50K when OC is obtained. So, do you think you still can get Ideal Haus’s 22’x70′ unit for 1.1M in 2 years’ time.

@owner

thanks for the input. I also heard that wireless the signal frequency could possible be interfere too..

Any owner here plan to install security alarm system? any brand to recommend?

Has anyone get the renovation do’s & don’t list d? The gate izit confirm cannot change except add auto-gate motor? Already saw some unit starting their reno.

Buying a landed property will become less affordable in near future. Look at this year new landed property launch , 90% are above $1.5mil. More importantly there are limited projects and limited unit available.new landed property in mainland already reached $650-750k.
So $1mil in Penang island is reasonable

@Unionjack84 I disagree with you as you are just shadow punching. When money weakening and inflation coming up will that warranty your income also going up ?

My reasoning is based on my father’s case. He bought a DS house in 1984 when I was born for 120K. At that time, he was only drawing a monthly salary of 1K, and the monthly installment was about RM500 for the 90K housing loan. We were quite hard pressed during that initial period. As time passed by, with salary adjustment, we were actually quite well off by the time he retired 5 years ago. His last drawn salary stood at 8 K and he had settled the housing loan on that year. The house now fetches around 1.2M. His advice to me is “The purchasing power is shrinking by the days, if you are able to get a loan from the bank, go ahead and buy your own house because your saving would never catch up with the rising prices.”

Let me chip in here, ur point is valid if only your start pay is 10k now, else ur points just invalid cannot apply for today.

Today heavy rain n access road to Tree Residency flooded. Will it be delayed to obtain OC?

Anyone know when the new show house is going to be ready? Any good idea what to do with the dry yard- to combine with guest room or dry kitchen etc? Thanks in advance.

@Tokong

Somehow I find his statement quite true. Salary 1K purchased 120K DST, means the house price is 120X the salary. Today if an engineer/ manager with salary 8K, purchasing 1M DST, the house price is 125X the salary. 30 years later, who knows.

@JY

OC? Err…. you will never get an OC. Hehe! Now only need CCC, issued on 3rd Sep.

@thomas

Depend on your budget. If Ideal allowed to do a wall to close up the dry yard, the cheapest way is just do it and remain that area as dry yard. If got big budget, many ways you can do.

Any sign of flood in TR after few days of heavy rain?

@Bryan
Looking for good idea to obtain quotation. I am open for any good idea.

@cm
Actually for g&g, installing grille is probably good enough in my opinion. For alarm, cannot really advice since i haven’t started using it. Personally i would avoid some not so well known brands. I m installing paradox but price a bit high compared to usual.

All owners, please find time to inspect ur house carefully especially fine line cracks outside, ideally during or right after downpour. My friend unit at sathu has several places with watermarks after heavy rain. Also, the road in front of TR towards Dua Villa was flooded heavily the other day. Believe due to drainage blockage. Better start making complains now as it may cause even more severe flood in future if issue not fixed

why so many want facing south. Any reason why? I thot feng shui does not matter north or south…

kotun :
why so many want facing south. Any reason why? I thot feng shui does not matter north or south…

Actually, it has a lot to do with the ancient feng shui study. The saying :”Sitting on north and facing south” carries a lot of influence on popular belief of good feng shui. Probably because a house in this position would avoid the extremely chilling wind from blowing directly into the house during the winter. Though we do not have winter here, we do occasionally experience cold wind blowing from the north during December and January.

@Unionjack84
Thanks for the insights. Luckily and coincidently, mine is facing south.

@Unionjack84
I was under the impression the best feng shui direction depends on your kua number, no..? Below is the article that explains the pros and cons for these 2 directions.

http://www.homesalesbylisa.com/buying-a-home/ideal-direction-for-your-home-north-or-south-facing/

@fs
Thanks. I know nothing about feng shui, what I mentioned was very general and is what people would normally consider when buying a house. In TR’s case, all the houses are either facing north or south, I think this is to avoid the rising sun in the morning and the scorching sun in the afternoon. My ideal home is one that is far from the main road, has clean and quiet environment and most importantly a peaceful and crime free neighbourhood. Well, may be it’s just my wistful thinking.

@fs

In Malaysia, either facing north or south is equally good as you able to avoid most of the sunlight, and still able to keep the house is “room temperature” after soaking under hot sun for the whole day. No cold problem here. You may need to consider south or north facing in countries with 4 seasons.

The qua number…. this is too much already. This is still haven’t supported by any solid theory. In general, most ppl do not consider this.

Do more study on what you want and your live style, then study the house environment, structure and location. If this is done perfectly, to me, it is already a good feng shui.

People need to tell you when they sold their unit is it? Who do you think you are?

@Chocolate

@soo
Not all posted at mudah.my are real sellers to some extent, judging from the way they presented the details and photos. The types of property, land area and built up area, the number of bedrooms and toilets sometimes all jumbled up. A few of them even used pictures of other project for TR. May be it’s just the broker’s gimmick to attract attention. Whether you like it or not, one thing is for sure, the selling price of TR’s property has gone up ever since VP and OC are obtained. You should count yourself lucky if you could get the smallest duplex unit at around 1.1M now.

Its true the price advertist in mudah.com, just syok syok only, really overpricing more than 30%,

@low

You tried too hard…

At first it sounds like too expensive at 1.55M. But if 22×70 was transacted close to 1.2milion, what should be the fair value then for 34×70?

may i know how is the soft launch for this unit?

@Q
Do you mean the launch price? If I remember correctly, the smallest unit is about 768K. Those with bigger land (type26, 24+10 etc.) are around 1 to 1.1mil. This is before discount/rebate – I don’t know if there is any.

Facing North is RM768k, Facing south is RM753K. This are the selling pricing after rebate.

Really? Why is it so?
I remember starting price $768k.
Is it for some units (maybe facing road, etc)?

Relax.. if you are an owner of TR, it does not matter now. facing north or facing south… either way kaching kaching…

I sold my one residence @ dua villa for $1.12 few weeks ago. The unit is 22×75.
Still keep one tree residency for investment. By the way the same buyer was willing to pay $1.08mil for my tree residency unit 22×70.

30% profit tax next year onwards for 1-3 years

There must be protests from some patriotic nationalists from this tanah M to withhold the sovereignty of ketuanan M. Too bad, after 56 years of independence, all the goodwill and tolerances seemed to go down the drain.

@yoyo

Sathu and dua master bedroom toilet is exactly on the top of the main entrance.

agree with Pg. And most unit facing either North or South. Another thing, I’m not sure if this is a good thing, but if you drive from the clubhouse to the guardhouse, you see a nice hill/mountain. Very good and nice view. Like a Napa Valley view.

Another thing that comes free in SPI/Ideal area, the air is the morning is super fresh….

@kotun
TR is the nearest to the big TNB substation among all. the morning air comes free with electromagnetic wave.

@Bond

That’s new… you mean the area where commercial is supposed to be? You consider 50/60hz as EM?

@kotun
Are you not staying in TR? Just walk to the east side of TR and take a look right out of the fencing wall, it is not the frequency of the electrical current that matter, but it is the high voltage cables & instrument that emit EM wave that matter. Pity those occupants near to there. Just a wall and a road wide away.

@Bond

I’m staying in TR and I guess none in TR ever notice.

@Bond

My migraine problem solve after staying in TR….. Seem like the EM effect…..

kotun :
@Bond
I’m staying in TR and I guess none in TR ever notice.

Ignorant is bliss? Even notice also have to accept it. Wait for longer timeframe to notice the effect of EM wave. Though i feel that the TNB substation should be properly shield. If leaked, then nearest residence might feel it.. Of course, just minor issue since its not too near.. Those who knows about these things will stay away from TR..that is why i say, ignorant is bliss.. Maybe to some extend.

@Bond
Do you pity Plantino & Baywater residence there beside TR since they are so near to big giant power generator plant?

This @Bond fella is a “concerned citizen”… always pity other people one…

CM Guan Eng did the opening ceremony of the bypass road in front of TR this morning. I think his headache will be gone by now, due to the EM wave and all..

@SP
Platino & Bayswater residence made their own choice as they know the giant power plant has long been there. But the one next to TR/1R suppose to be a hotel in the “earlier” master plan during the launch of TR. Now do you see he difference?

@Bond

Hello Bond. I still could not find where the so called sub station is. Should be with transformer and thick cabling. The hotel/commies building that you mentioned is supposed to be Solaris. You are saying Solaris will be cancelled?

@kotun

it should b nuclear plant, ignorant is no longer bliss…..

@Bond
Platino & Bayswater residence can made their own choice then OR residence cannot made their their own choice? Why go to pity them since their property right now easily can sell > 1m?

ooh the white building, is it? You call that substation ? That will be used to supply electricity for the Commercial building. Yes, the commercial building and the hotel are as per planned.

The air is fresh and rejuvenating in TR this morning…:).

@Bond2

Summerton no neclear plant… you might want to consider summerton.

I like Summerton. I lived in Putraplace before, and like the whole area there. Very convenient.

@kotun
up to you if you think it is not a substation, but you can take a look at the building name painted on the external wall of that building. It should be a voltage step down substation which I think impact should be minimal if properly EM-shielded. By the way, I think those shop houses in the earlier master plan are confirmed replaced by Solaria Residence. Still got shoplots downstair but it is 20+ floors condo.

@SP
I don’t think any TR buyers knew the substation is there, especially those bought the east side units. May be some will feel uncomfortable living near to it (if own stay), and subsale price probably lower than other units too.

Yes… it will be Solaria Residence. The TNB things is to power up Solaria. Every apartment and commercial blocks should have this TNB thing right? This is very different that TNB plant close to Tesco.

I think having Solaria Residence there is good. It will attract more people, and the good thing is, shoplots will be on ground floor. I think they will do well, also Setia Triangle. We need commercial lots around Sg Ara South.

@deblee

don’t care you buy it for what la. Just show me the money.

Having going to see units in SATHU & TREE RESIDENCY, there is one funny observation.

The agent used the access card to enter through the guard house but for TREE, he have to wind down window but for Older SATHU can just do it in the car?
Same developer but why difference system?

It is not a major issue but still a nuisance to me if I were to stay there in Tree Res.

Can the owners there comment?

@WF

I never wind down my car window when entering TR. I also able to access to the sensor at the left side of my car by just waiving the card at my car passenger seat.

@Swan

No Tesco near TR. But I find out Giant is not a bad place for shopping, especially milk powder.

@Bond

How high is the voltage of the substation you mentioned?

Use the site map in this forum as reference. The 2 red boxes are the TNB residential station for TR. Where is the substation location in this map? Near to which lot number?

The Jln Tun Dr Awang from roundabout near airport to the juntion with Jln Tengah will be widening to 4 lanes by Ideal by 2016 phase by phase. Currently, the widening is only until South Homes. Total cost 40M. (if I understand the statement correctly)

Another new road cost 12M already in construction to connect Jln Tun Dr Awang with Jln Sg Tiram (my guess is Jln Sg Tiram 6). Estimated completed by this May. With this, residents of this area will have better access to Jln Sultan Azlan Shah (airport road).

There will also be a new 500m road connecting Jln Tun Dr Awang to the new Heng Ee school, estimated completed by next year.

the price set at 960k 4 years back… wonder what is the latest price now?

@thor

Are you sure 960K 4 years back, at 2010? Which type?

You can check mudah. Yes, confirm ppl selling 920k once OC years ago.

Someone quote me 960k on phase 1 with longer land.

@Bryan

Ok….hmmm…..i talked to few agents, they told me some also face “intermittent issues” on the card.

ANyway Card access Not a major factor, as i suppose Management would handle it.

But just the asking price too much. KNS, a tour around this area only a few house (22 type) put on sale poster….thought some desperate investors would sell quickly.

@thor

Mudah price only a reference. I checked Sathu price with owner and agent in Nov 2012, east facing 980K and west facing 940-950K. Sathu and Dua OC in 2012.

Tree OC last Sep. Not yet on sell 4 years ago maybe. And the starting selling price was 7xxK.

@c

I am not aware of this issue after using it for many times. Anyway, someone mentioned, try to keep the card parallel with the sensor then you can use your card 4-5′ away without issue.

I let you know if I want to sell. :p . Now asking price 1.1-1.2M. What is your target price? I have a friend with type 22, but he has no intention to move in as he currently also stay in landed. I can check with him if you really want a unit, of course, with reasonable market price.

Confirm the just b4 OC release years back. the subsales price is 920k.

I can still recall that the phase 1 launching price of 600k+. and phase 2 launching price of 700k.

Regret that I did not grab 1.

But what matters is the current price mah…….,market dont care their original price.

Hi

Anyone aware of transacted price for type 22? i guess that should be 1.2M?

No need commision la. if not suitable my friend will not sell.

the lowest you can get is 1st row facing the garden/rubbish central collection.

Decent unit asking price 1.3M & above.

@lim
could you eleborate and to be specific? what type of property in oversupply? how do you know many investors are stuck? did u manage to get one in 20% bargain?

@GnGBuyer
Do you have transacted price for type 22?

Just wondering what make this worth 1.3M?

Is there anyone out there that really fork out that about of money for own stay. (double the amount in mainland).

For investment, i can understand invester 1 sell to invester 2, 2 sell to 3, etc….base on the concept of limited land.

$1.3M is asking not necessary market price. Buyer can either offer lower or wait (if you believe price can fall)

If u asked those older property savvy uncle, they will tell u it is always double up when compare to mainland. Since 2010, mainland price increase faster than island but many didn’t notice.

On whether it is worth or not may be we can use KL case as comparison?
By talking to some experience property players questions they asked such as (in G&G project with complete facilities):

How much do you pay for same build up (~2200sqft) completed condo nearby? 1.1M, 1.2M or more?
How much you pay for the condo maintenance fees for 2200 sqft?
How much is the maintenance fees compare to others landed G&G in the island?
Is there going to a lot of new competition G&G supply nearby to cause the demand switch?

1.3M is a big number to me. I don’t have that sum to pay too…..cakap kosong only.

Anyhow currently economy is not doing so well…..hard to say what would happen in short term.

Be careful of “property landmines”!

Good nite property hunters! Happy research

@peter
I think it’s a good buy. When did you buy it and is the location good? I see some intermediate corner units selling for 1.5mil already.

You just give away a mercedes benz for free to the seller. Generous you. keep it up.

Pretty good deal if you just signed S&P.
but if u signed it prior to CNY, then that WAS about Market price.

yes,currently investing in china market property and chinese dollar coz i believe china dollar will appreciate in the long run.

jennifer, just signed the snp not long ago, facing south, corner unit right next to the main entrance road . i dont even bother to go back to take a look, asked them to mail over the documents for me to sign.too busy over here, dont have time to leave yet. since parents love the facilities in this tree residency.but as for my own stay , i would prefer a seaview house with big compound garden.

@c
hi cempedak, that was why i told parents my budget for the house was anything below 1.5mil as its just for parents retirement home. better investing in china real property as the apartment can easily appreciate 300k to 500k in a year time.

hi cempedak, that was why i told parents my budget for the house was anything below 1.5mil as its just for parents retirement home. better investing in china real property as the apartment can easily appreciate 300k to 500k in a year time.

We need more people like you to push penang property to another level. Thanks for contributing to our economy. How about your parent in law. Buy one more unit la, Setia Pearl Island also quite good. Opposite this one but higher land.

Really beh tong….

I really don’t understand the purpose of coming to forum and talk “big” about ones own wealth?
Then talk about how good other project (legenda) and this painting Tree Res as if a cheapo properties meant for old folks?
I knew there are some strategies like Try to run down the price so that can buy cheaper, scare tactic to the investors to release their unit price?
Too bad…..Normal type22 terrace >$1.3M.

Then talk about China, in past few years yes wonderful super return but go in now??
I guessed may need a brain scan?
Please go read Related news in Bloomberg for past time reading.

Anyway People who bought 9months in Tree Res ago also already earned RM300k by now la. No need go China.

@jennifer_ooi
jennifer, just signed the snp not long ago, facing south, corner unit right next to the main entrance road . i dont even bother to go back to take a look, asked them to mail over the documents for me to sign.too busy over here, dont have time to leave yet. since parents love the facilities in this tree residency.but as for my own stay , i would prefer a seaview house with big compound garden.

My advice to you is come back and take care of your parent. buy them thing won’t make you a good son. after they pass away, want to see also cannot.

@abcd

Good one!

Finally being silence?
……instead focusing of real property related issue, try to bring down image or perhaps prices tactics already being exposed many times here and there.

I’m a serious buyer who interested to purchase a unit for own stay, any owner wish to sell their unit, please email me @ weiqi422@hotmail.com Thanks!

I think Ideal Haus can b consider too since it is goin to complete soon.
should be cheaper since non full G&G type yet in same location.

By the way, Where is the filial son who bought for his old parents? no response?

Hi I am Fanny. Any owner of Tree Residency would like to let go the unit pls kindly call me 0124091299. Thank you vy much. Btw, if you hv property to sell / to buy / to rent out, pls do fell free to call me.

Since you are agent/negotiator, could you provide the range of price for let say the standard bare unit (not near TNB, face rubbish collection area, too near road) 22 feet terrace in TREE?

this is open forum, and it is good to educate public here since you are also posting here publicly.

Anyway, one unit for sale opp garden /rubbish collection, let me clarify here. The rubbish collection is outside the gate and it’s close-up. My unit is there too, just want you to know that it wasn’t opp rubbish collection centre as in infront of your face.

Anyone know the transacted price for type 22 X 70 in Tree residency?

Anyone know the latest transacted price for type 22 X 70 in Tree residency?

Any agent to comment on prices??

hi TR owner, how about the airplane noise, is it ok or noisy?

@Wondering

Sure, they will tell you it’s ok !!!!!. The truth lies as it’s still near to the
airport but Penang International Airport and will cater more and more
flights in time to come.

@David
True, but should be much better than Queensbay area which is directly under flight paths.

@David
David,
Nothing to worry about the noise, one residence not under flight path.
Unless the plane landing from the other side of island and fly above SP setia which is impossible.
I fly every month and I never see the plane fly around one residence.

@David

Haha! Why not you just go in and swim in the pool for 1 hr, then count how many time you can hear the airplane noise, then come back to report here? Then we can start the discussion. Otherwise, you look more like the one telling lie here….. :p

“Sure, they will tell you it’s ok”!!!!!.

This place is not good. Air plane noise, rubbish everywhere, inconsiderate neighbours. Better get out fast and those thinking of coming in, think twice or thrice. Imagine airplane noise even when you are swimming at the pool. Goodness

@Edin Gan

Agree. It is very bad, too many sour grapes around. Goodness

Edin/ Soso,

are you staying there is that so bad? Do you think of let go ur unit

Edin, you sure? i just checked with my friends who stay there. didnt notice much airplane noise. so have decided ti buy the Solaria Condo next to three residency. For the TNb station just a normal generator roon supplier FV and Solaria condo

@investor
You are correct, Queensbay area especially Sungai Nibong which is directly under flight paths. for Tree residency area, so far, there is not much of noise from flight in airport, most probably the plane had landed and no noise pollution.

“Not much noise”
That means got noise la. A jolt from sleep is enough to disrupt sleep.
This phase is the most expensive and not to mention the cracks and land sinking problem .
Pity you

@Edin Gan
I doubt are you really an owner of TR, if you are really owner, please quickly sell off your unit since you are so negative. I think you have think twice or thrice before commenting on this. please do not simply comment if you do not have any fact. thank you for your cooperation.

@Hikato
This crack and land sinking problem have had discussed since the beginning of this forum, if you have a chance, please study the past message in this forum, it was a fake and rumors, I guess that it might be the property agent’s tactic to scare off the owner to quickly let go their unit with lower price. it is a known tactic being known by everyone.

@Hikato

Relaxed bro.. feeling regret and jealous confirm will disrupt sleep..

@james,
Are you staying there?
i saw somewan wrote the swimming pool is vr dirty and poor maintainece is the correct?

bryan ong :
@Hikato
Relaxed bro.. feeling regret and jealous confirm will disrupt sleep..

Have to bear almost RM1million housing loan for 30 years, but get a house that live with crack/sinking issue, toxic traffic with the coming many condo, who regret?

@88
I am one of TR owner. so far, I didn’t notice about it, anyway, for maintenance matter, it is an on-going improvement item, it is standard, I don’t see any club house or apartment can run away from this issue, it is the matter how issue can be addressed, for long term, feedback and cooperative for improvement are needed to make a better place with good maintenance.

Lastly, are you TR resident?

@Hikato

ok ok… i regret. i regret i bought TR. I regret i never listen to you last time.. hai… super regret..

@Hikato
Maybe you are too jealous about it, to be fair, everyone has their affordability to enjoy what they supposed to be, buying property is not a matter of sin, please don’t blame everything and put negative energy on it if you could not get it due to reason. perhaps, you should be happy to people rather than blaming anything, in the end, shame on you.

Besides, as mentioned before, This crack and land sinking topic have had discussed since the beginning of this forum, if you have a chance, please study the past message in this forum, it was a fake and rumors, I guess that it might be the property agent’s tactic to scare off the owner to quickly let go their unit with lower price. it is a known tactic being known by everyone.

Jealous, tactic? Oh… Please
I work in mainland ans stay in landed. My commitment in housing loan much lower and my salary on par with island based MNC. Although I still keep my DPiazza for rental.

Yours- almost RM1million loan , sinking/ crack issue, traffic toxic as along that road will be all condos soon. All are facts!
Please accept the reality . Your hard-earned money has many other priorities than being slaved to housing loan!

@Hikato

you are really a concerned citizen lo… stay so far away but yet suddenly become an expert in TR… lol

That residential area started with Sathu…. Many people went there countless times for housewarming and had heard many stories.
You guys bought the final phase and the most expensive one!
“Suddenly very concern”? Only you are naive

@Hikato

Owners got it with 7xx K only la…… lol

@Kenneth

oh ya… housewarming stories lo… goodness. lol…

@Kenneth
as a matter of fact, property price in up trend since 2009 till now, it is not only happen to TR but also to majority of condo in Penang, the price had gone up twice, please look at the transaction study if you have doubt. i think it is unrealistic to compare with the initial price with 700K from first phase of property launching, if you want to compare, my grandfather bought his landed in Georgetown with only 50k in 30 -40 years ago, please remember, it is not only happen to housing but also with the food, do you think can you still get 50 sen for a plate of wan tan mee now as compare to 30 years ago? one of example, a landed in Sri tanjong, the initial price was around 700k too, the question is, can you get the same property price like the old time?, maybe in your dream. there are many stories you may heard from Sathu, but how much did you really study to find out the fact or you really like to hear the story for the sake of hearing story for joining the crowd with fun : )

Lastly, i think you need to face the reality. nothing is cheap now, whether you like it or not, it is happening now. by the time in April 2015 after GST, then see who is naive about it.

go mainland buy landed la, don’t wait lor, later mainland landed also you cannot afford.

Not based on the feedback I get fro my friends and in this forum. Last time I thought this was a good place but not anymore. Sorry.

@Olivia Lee
Please elaborate if you think the place is not good, are you or your friend from TR residence? what is the solid reason in this concern? hearing a friend is not enough, at least, a real experience is the right justification otherwise, it is just talk for fun without substance.

Notice that there are many touchy and paranoid people in this forum. They must be desperately trying to defend their bad investments, sinking issue, airplane noise, dirty pools, strewn garbage. This all leads to a very unhealthy place to live in.

Sounded exactly the same here also…

Property speculator got 2 types. One speculates to rise the price and the other one speculates to slash the price..hahaha….

Are all the negative things mentioned here true? No wonder the resale prices have been stagnated for a long time. So owners may be desperate to sell but no buyers

@Komtar
this not only happened in TR, in fact the whole market. The reason was so many people saying the market will crash and price will drop, tha’ts why people holding back to buy now.

In contrast, if many people saying the price will go further next year, you guess what will happen. Now just the matter which group of people can hold longer, the seller or the buyer? haha

every year there are fresh graduates come out to work..there are newly married couple…there are babies new born every day….they need shelter.

Positive people will pray to have new opportunity to make higher income. Negative people will pray property price will drop. You got a choice.

@yoyo
it is true, agreed with you, as I can see, there are more people in negative than positive in this forum, they are not only hoping the price to be depreciated but simply speculate the unnecessary or untrue info in this forum without substance. as everyone has their right to comment, but it has to be realistic. I am not trying to make a defend to TR, but as a neutral, I comment thing based on real substance and matter of fact.

With their action, I guess that they are just simply unhappy with property price, it is free market, price is increase/depreciate is based on basic economic of supply and demand, even it has been speculated but Government had implemented a series of cooling measure. you all don’t have to prove anything, time will tell, again, buying property is not a matter of sin, maybe those had regret not buying in the beginning, now, price had appreciated, they are not happy with that, what if they did a decision to buy TR in the beginning, do you think that would they still commenting the same, I doubt.

Just a social service for those simply bad mouth……If not mistaken this project management still under developer.
Furthermore the developer still have few projects in the nearby site in which these comments could be detrimental to their image and sales.

In internet, you are free to talk but bear the consequences if it crosses the legality line. I am not sure if defamations, rumors, can be damaging to certain company and public can be taken to court.
But I guessed if there is basis to pursue the source of untrue information, the relevant parties can request for govt (I think MCMC) to trace the IP of the senders.

Good luck.

After the road connecting jln tun dr awang was opened, this location is superb.
btw, I am not ideal worker nor TR resident. I am just an observer passing by this area everyday.

The landscape is nice and well taken care of. Set new benchmark for island G&G housing. Those who bad mouth obviously is jealous or looking to grab a unit with lower price. Landed property in good location and well maintained will not see price drop with your imaginative stories.

TR owners, just ignore those nonsense. We are the one staying inside and we are the one enjoying the community. Why care about those guys thinking?
If not revisit this forum, I almost forgotten that I am staying near an airport. Those airplane noise, so little until my aircon and fan are more noisy. The noise from Lorry or motor are louder. Don’t believe, your call lo.
Those old sinking story, lazy to type further la. Those guys really funny.
There are more and more owners moving in. My last count is about 20% occupied without including those under renovation. By 1 year anniversary, should be at least 30-40% d.
Ideal Haus is almost completed and the Park + Garden is nice besides the main road. The whole Jln Tun Dr Awang just refilled with new tar. The ride is so smooth now a day.

Is it tru that this place is very bad both in terms of bad neighbours and also problems with the place? can anyone provide details? Thanks. Need more info before I decide to rent in this place. I also feel many contributors here are very proud and snobbish. I hope this does not reflect the community staying here or else this is NOT a good place to live

Those people keep mentioning about airplace noise are totally brainless. For area that not under direct airplane flight path, those so called airplane noise is totally insignificant compare to car or motorbike engine noise.

@Juru

How much you are renting? fully furnished?

@Juru

I hope you are wise enough and never make any judgement base on the input from this forum. Rubbish in rubbish out. Go for the on-site study.

it’s been ages since I came in here as I see more bad vibe comments and ill intent. It does not reflect to the community that is staying in TR.

@Bryan
Agreed with you, your comment is solid, it is advisable to be onsite for any study before any judgment, do you enough self-home work for the last decision making.

no airplane sound at all despite near to Penang Airport.

Why suddenly these bad mouth people so silent?

Got any proof on the problems highlighted?

My friend has a unit at Tree Residency, originally he plans to sell it, but now he changed his mind. This place is excellent. One of the best landed residential in Penang Island. I agreed with him.

Simple supply and demand theory !
In 2014 there is NO single landed property project on island that I aware of has or will be launched. ( not those above $2mil).
Imagine nowadays a condo in mainland will cost you $500k, so do you own calculation and estimate how much one residence is worth for. For me it is very valuable

I used to have one unit in dua villas ( I sold for $1.12mil and now I am regret) but at least now i still got 1 unit in tree residence . I bought desa park city in kl 8 years ago as I used to work in kl and I LOVE it so much. If all one residence residents work together, I believe we can be the next desa park city.

bad mouth ppl own nothing other than BIG mouth..keep posting messages critizing and saying.properties price gonna crash….how big is penang island…they want no traffic but convenient area, prefer close to shopping mall and established infrastructure, but dun want noise..even they can find properties which is meeting their criteria, they want it to be less than 300k….oops..they want landed somemore…
