hi, I’m interested to buy. serious buyer here… @khor
Urgent sale. 1450ft morning sun. 900k nego.

Serious buyer here.

thanks.
true.. price is too high. which flr? @Vincent
i am interested to invest
Do you feels LRT will caused sound pollution?
Hi KH, If you do major renovation, it is worth to pay rubbish fees, your contractors will save all the troubles to remove all the hacked rubbish which might be more than one tonne. Rubbish fees around 800 t0 1000. If you do minor renovation, you can discuss and negotiate with them. For air con piping and grille, the station contractor workmanship is satisfactory even they charge slightly higher than market price. They will attend to you and rectify the problems if you feedback to them after installation.
4 air con piping cost me RM2130 exclude gst 6%. 3 staffs were working from 10 am to 6pm. They hacked wall concrete and sealed all pipings. Workmanship is satisfactory.
Hi, Cheng. Thank you for your sharing. How about hacking the wall and tile? Need to let them do as well? The 4 air con piping that you paid is already including the air con installation? or only the conceal piping only? Are your pipe is longer than 10 meters and inverted pipe? I need to do a lot of grill including window, foyer and balcony. How about the grill price from them? Do we have the Arena owner forum or whatsapp group?
@owner lee
try visit songapore or kl
As long as your unit does not face the station directly should be fine. I used to rent a condo right beside LRT station in KL but I hardly hear any sound because my unit is not directly facing the station.
@Rent Carpark
are you staying there as well? I have extra carpark for rent.
Yup. Workmanship is satisfactory. And i will move in soon after bulan hantu. lol
You let the gangster renovate your unit? How is the pricing?

anyone know why price drop for arena?
is it due to the cosmopoint college hostel now in arena? Is it very noisy?
any idea how many blocks/units being used for the hostel?
How much the asking price?
It is not price drop, it is the seller’s asking price getting more reasonable now, due to current property slowdown in Penang and nationwide. A check on surrounding property transaction price (real transaction price, not the seller asking price u saw on Mudah.com/propertyguru/iProperty website) shows that the price is slightly lower than 1 or 2 years ago.
Gone are the days where flipper can easily earn >100k upon OC.
@Lam
will the hostel bring down the price of this condo further? later all the student lepak at pool
@paulfoo
I don’t think will bring down the price, in fact the rental market getting better due to them (hostel).
I stay at one of the condo nearby, also quite some units rented to Inti college. Rarely see all of them lepak at pool/gym. Also they did not make much noise at night, bear in mind this is not college hostel, it’s a residential condo, if they gone overboard the owners/residents will go complaint to condo management and the college. The college make a lot money from these kind of hostel-rental, they can’t afford the condo management kick away all their students.
How do we curb homestay ?
There is a unit at 19th floor doing homestay and disturbing the serenity of the environment.
Can the JMB do something? Outsiders coming in to stay and use the facilities with no respect to actual owners. This is a serious matter. Guard should disallow any entry for homestay.
Many floors have homestay units. Even on the residential block. Should be illegal right? How come management never take any action? As for the student hostel, serious actions or rules need to be implemented. Sometimes these students bring in friends/family members to use the facilities. Once in a while they have a gathering at the pool area/group study. Residents swimming being watched…..
I am serious buyer. Prefer commercial title, unit 9 or 5 or 6 which at above 13 floors.

Arena not many seller because less buyers/hard to sell since facility very limited, got college hostel, shoplots not doing well.
Advise those looking to check promanade… better value with better facilities.
1450sqft has the worst design. only 2 rooms got view. Another room is totally wasted with no view and window at toilet/backyard area. Architect fail. And toilet window for master is at your entrance. Feng Shui failed.
@Cheng

JMB of Arena must take action fast on the cars parked at the entry point of entrance. Today saw an old man nearly got knocked because of this (1.45pm 7 Sept 2018). Maybe his view got blocked specifically on the honda civic plate no PNH8826 or PHN8826. This car parked right at the corner entry of the barrier.
Maybe clamping will work for this uneducated drivers.
Can afford buy new honda civic turbo but no money pay parking park inside. Almost all the time and overnight this same car parked there. Advise owner buy myvi at least can pay parking money. Malulah you.
May I know the property is commercial title or residential title?
@Samantha
Block A is residential title
Block B is commercial
so very well just avoid Block B
more security cameras needed at car park area especially after the current incident where the led lightings were stolen. (HMMMM what was the security doing?) Please change security company.
Security guard keep smoking at blowing smoke at walk in /out residents and guest. (is JMB member aware? please view cctv or do check) Really uncivilised guard. Please sack them and ban smoking at common area including guards post.
We need at least one chinese sitting in management office daily to communicate with non indian residents.
Homestay should banned with no further conditions allowed before any rape. robbery or murder happen inside. Dont wait until too late.
@irene
No comment over homestay, management should do something.
As for those student staying in Arena, i dont see any issues. They are the residents & they pay the rent. There is no reason why “non-student” resident can bring in family and friend while they shouldn’t. Common facilities in 6th floor are meant for residents (includes student) use, if you felt discomfort being watch for swimming, perhaps you may propose to the management to allowed only those who swim can enter 6th floor. LOL
thank you to the great jmb committee for making Arena a unique place for homestay. Sincere appreciation to the chairman, secretary and treasure for helping and ensuring all going smoothly. And please add more facilities like ping pong table, pool or snooler table and maybe some massage chairs for the comfort of our homestay guest. Thank you.
saturday big homestay group all enter pool with normal cloths. How come can allow? Guard no do duty? This is very dirty and unhygienic.
Main entry point always blocked by homestay comer while waiting get access card from owner. Sometimes car cannot enter at main entry (outside).
If any bribery involved by homestay operator towards management/jmb/guards, best make report to SPRM as this issue is a security threat to residents.
11.00 am 23 dec sunday got irresponsible user in gym reserve treadmill with his smelly singlet on treadmill holder but not using.
unable for others to use treadmill.
management please improve your security duty and ban such irresponsible user/tenant/owner
please check your cctv for evidence.
and homestay havoc on saturday with so much noise until residence peace affected.
homestay 19 floor block A having wild partY? how come many commitee stay 20th floor never take action?
Don’t stay here, you will regret as the maintenance office, parking office, management office staff’s super rude and ignorant, you will have high blood pressure when talking with them!!!!!
Not worth to buy for a permanent stay or renting at there as the Management office still not change. You will be regret as the maintenance, parking & management office staff’s rudeness, ignorant and never improved. Pay maintenance fee every month for nothing. Don’t rely on them when you have an emergency. Vomit blood. For renting, better find a convenient place or good agent which is helpful & not an irresponsible person.
@MC
very surprised. whole commitee is like a team and any perks for them for keeping such a lousy management company? worst commitee if you were to compare with other similar properties. place is so dirty too with lazy cleaners.
Yes. They always sleep and hangout at “specific” floor corridor. Especially evening time 3pm to 5pm.
The maintainance of this condo is poor. I can heard water pipe sounds like a foghorn during morning and night time for past 2 weeks but till now still no improvement. Im wondering why the commitee is still keeping the poor service management company. The management office staff is rude and ignorant. By right management office staff shld assist residences if their service is needed but this is another way round. They need to remember management office staffs salary is paid by residences so they shld service for residences and not given bad service to residences.
@MC
Yes they are hangout at block A. Maybe block A less residences
price drop after Face recognigtion installed, good job micheAL.MAKE SO INCOVINIENT FOR OLD , elderly children to go in and out our house. hope u happy.
back for cny and the place was dirty. what is going on? any cleaners or improper management? why is lift so dirty? its was better a year ago but now got really bad…. sick
Is the Face Recognition system implementation legal? How can such system be installed replacing the access card system and cause inconveniences to owners? This is our house and we have the right to pass the keys to anyone/family to enter but with FR system, they cannot enter anymore. Can the JMB buy over our unit in this case or be sued ?
why the committees still at work ? next AGM vote them out, i smell fishy at work.
The facial reorganize system is illegal, all residents please team up to fight the crook JMB!
@Lousy Arena JMB
Yes. Even my family could not enter when i was away even they got my keys. Hope developer can look into this and take action. Simply cannot change the system. Maintenancxe not done… broken paip at car wash area and cannot wash hand after throw rubbish….
Disable toilet door so long damaged not changed. fishy fishy as other high expenditure got money spend unnessary.
Main entrance not disable friendly and not rectified. Lift lobby and exhaust fan not working until now causing smelly and place for covid19 since no ventilation
The DX Chinese Metaphysics group Penang has recently done an audit for one of the shop owner and the discovery is astonishing.
After this, be aware if someone tells you the (car park) jade belt is auspicious
I want to fix internet,after tm net tech check said that phone line is problem,he say bcos of fiber connector to cable box faulty,cable box is at outside my house common sharing room which together wt tnb eletric meter for all house units at tat level,tm tech say maintenance need to fix it,anyone who experience this,can pls help to share is it owner or maintenance need to bare the cost ? Is tat any penang state govt channel i can make a complaint report ?Thank you.
@Danny
management is responsible to repair this defect. this is outside your unit. If they ignore, just refer to you lawyers for advise. Currently, the Arena residence is in a mess under the ignorant jmb. Just hope after the MC is formed, we at least get a capable chairman compared to the current one .and proper JMB members. Maintenance is now down the drain and facilities damaged. Security problem not rectified under this chairman with rude guards and lazy.
Hi Kang,thanks for your advised,will go to lawyer,the maintenance is know nothings even repair a simple network point,any issues they just push back to house owners…irresponsibility,we paid maintenance fees for lazy and uncapable mgmt team.
just hope the current chairman is terminated soon with so low quality standard in managing this condo. place is so dirty. repair works not done but more interested in high cost replacement projects instead of proper maintenance.
why less guards now? are we paying for proper security service?
and kids as guards? no proper screening for guards? why guard quality like this? jmb can answer?
@rocky
hhahaha
my friend Gopal, how are you ? have you found a job ?
@ronnie
haha
need wait until we get better and more responsible chairman next year.
Lift condition and upkeep like PPR flats. Lets hope a change in commitee, chairman and management soon.
@jenny
yes
two really problematic comittee
secretary also not proper with no updates on minutes.. useless
OKU lots provided by developer rented out by greedy jmb for $$$….
This is an abuse of OKU rights…. used or not, you should not touch it.” ONG”
A lot of spending $$$$$ going on but making the place worse….needs to be investigated
Good afternoon
Looking for 1300sq feet.
@ooi
you can join the JMB for the good of residences if you have concern.
This is how my current JMB do and all the old JMB collapse and replace by new JMB and now it become more peaceful in my condo.
Try to get your own team to make it happen.
Else you kao pek kao boh there is useless.
please mind you language, else i will ask my lawyer team to sue you.
@ooi
Did not know about this . OKU rights need to be respected and their lots should not be rented out.
Shameful on whom approved it.
Wonder why many owners and tenants moving out and more and more units are up for sale. Answer is so clear.
we have rep from shoplots at JMB right? that GE insurance aunty? why was the car park rate allowed to go up so high? Rm2.20 first hour? This is unfair for us business operators. Business operators are also suffering from this JMB under ong.
