Arrr…..Malay graveyard?? Were they from the kampung ‘big fire’ as mentioned by someone previously? But normally, there is no pantang larang to live near to graveyard, only some fengshui saying don’t live near to graveyard.

Joker :

Obamana :Why this CW don’t have bumi lots? Weird?

The malays dun like to stay at CW coz it nears to malay graveyard

in fact not only this CW dont have bumi lots. other project by Oriental Max also same too. go check with Oriental Max the real reason before comment why does no bumi lots in this CW.

Ask already, OM said once we advertise 3 times in newspaper, then can release the bumi lots. Those developer don’t want to realease and keep the bumi lots are those want to make more money once completed, can sell in higher price, but, OM, didn’t really make use of this strategy.

For those CW buyers, which bank loan package that u all applied? Please share.

Public bank, highly recommended with competitive interest rate, a little extra discounted lawyer fee and some free shopping vouchers This may vary from time to time and depend on who the banker you meet.

Hi, I’m new to this forum. I recently bought a 2 room beachfront hotel suite at telok kumbar at 890,900 ringgit, that’s 920 psf. Can anyone tell me if that’s a fair price? I am regretting already as I think it’s overpriced

Can anyone give comments on loan package offered by public bank, Maybank & CIMB bank?

@Chimchim
Are you kidding? or just drop by here to talk about something which is totally not relevant to this project? You’re saying RM950psf++ for a suite at Teluk Kumbar? While E&O’s Andaman with full facility and award winning Condo at Straight Quay seafront also not yet at this price. You must be fooling yourself or being fooled if this is real….or probably typo there, not Teluk Kumbar, but Batu Ferringhi seafront, then ‘can hear’ abit, and I should say it is reasonable price as now that area trending at over RM1000psf for luxury suite or condo.

Haha, see a joker here. RM890k for less than 1000sf, tell me, which condo currently in Penang can hit this price?

The Suites At Waterside 1.2.2012

rm1.1mil/rm5000……………………..1008s.f
1bedroom
2bathrooms
nice sea-view ~block-E

@J & J
Apa ini?

@J & J
totally can’t understand

I think this is a super great property we should grab faster, strategic location, reasonable price, and booming area.

@Angry Cock
You already bought one?

oh shit..
this project’s developer really the BIG CHEATER (Pembohong BESAR),
My relative bought a unit at carnation villa, during launching the manager (jennie) show the catalog one type, my relative happy then paid the booking fees.
when signing S&P, the agreement shows another one (diff floor plan), no body inform us..

the developer simply change what they want they think they can get cheap & no quality construction material to earn higher profit..

We made survey before for most of the projects developed by this oriental max group, ONLY we write a comment here

hope the property investor be mora careful

@Gary Chan
what is the difference between brochure and those stated at SnP?

What is the huge difference? Mind to share?

Maybank package (fully flexi)
Loan Margin 90% + 5% (MRTA)
Rate= BLR-2.2% to -2.4%
tenure= 40 years or 70 year old

Thanks

@Obamana

Anyone know the detail of the Malay graveyard? Where is/was it exactly?

@brandon
Just about 1-2km behind CW.

@CW
Thanks for yr prompt response. May I know the actual coordinate, I’ve looked at Wikimapia, couldnt locate it.

@brandon
Coordinates: 5°21’35″N 100°24’57″E

Dear CW1 buyer, did ur developer change to Setia jutaria n the project name still central way?

@Jojo
@jojo, pls refer to #15 which post by Gary Chan, seem like this developer got problem… We better be more careful in CW2…

Setia jutaria is the branch company of OM which will handle account of CW project not the name of this taman.

Why the OM developer want to change the branch company name? Can anybody know what is reason? No enough money to develope or? Always change the developer name will be made the buyers not confident…

@JC
But the problem now is they change the project name as well… CW2 alr change to Vila Seri Setia, no more CW2, how to explain this without black n white letter from lawyer firm?

For your info, I just collect back my booking fees for CW2 due to loan rejected, they give me Banker Cheque instead of cheque issued by OM

@Lim
You are safe from this project at least you get back your 10k.

If Malay name is required for every project,can somebody from CW1 tell us what is the Malay name for phase 1.

@maymay
Are u going to wait until OM makes clear explanation?Please every CW 2 buyers share out the response from developer after dealing with them.

sasa1 :
Why the OM developer want to change the branch company name? Can anybody know what is reason? No enough money to develope or? Always change the developer name will be made the buyers not confident…

as far i know every developer will set up new child company when handle new project, set up new child company is something relate to tax issue. you go to check with OM, every brochure have their different child company name, they will not use OM as the main account who handle the project. Actually many developer are practice in this way. I have no idea about the name of phase 2, but for phase 1 the name stated in SnP is Central Way, i think they cant change it coz it is already sign and stamped.

@JC
Just like Jesselton Hills. The project oso come out with a malay name, Taman Jasa Indah i think. Pls double check. That changes only for the project name, not sure about the developer name.

dun believe what oriental max said, they are LIAR

who said we are LIAR ?@margeret

Oriental Max are the worst developer in market.
they cheat customers not only the $$, they also cheat customers – design, materials used etc..

All purchasers for this developers, please get refund $$ from them..

@ivan lee
what is the difference that OM promise you and what you receive?

Can any cw1 buyer tell us ur actual booking form? What is the Malay name for central way? Is ur developer senam jaya or Setia jutaria on booking forms?

Yong :
Can any cw1 buyer tell us ur actual booking form? What is the Malay name for central way? Is ur developer senam jaya or Setia jutaria on booking forms?

The name of housing development in SnP is stated Central Way @ Bukit Tengah and developer name is Setia Jutaria Sdn Bhd. The brochure also stated Setia Jutaria Sdn Bhd

Sorry for late reply…….. ( to : JoJo & MayMay )
Actually, I made surveyed before and read thru ALL the comments / Property Talk for more than 60 over projects in Penang Island as well as Penang Mainland..

I fully agreed with those leave comment like : ALL developers are the same , before you sign S&P, they treat you like GOD, after you signed S&P, they treat you like DOG

BUT, I would like to says, among all developers in Penang State. Oriental Max is the WORST developer , WHY I say that ? Let me explain in more detail..

1) Their Marketing People, before you buy / pay booking fees, they treat you like their GRANDFATHER, AFTER you pay $$, you want to change any plot (before signing any agreenment), they are your GRANDFATHER ( The way they talk VERY… VERY RUDE, I can’t describe .. NOT Professional at all , especially their Sales Manager , Jennie Lee )

2) If Oriental Max are profesional, WHY always compare with others developers ?
( Can OM compare with IJM ? Tambun Indah ? AirMas Group ? ) of course NOT.. BUT, they insist want to compare prices with others.. ( If we take an example : Quality, is already enough to say OM is far far away LOW / NO Quality at all. what else want to compare ?

3) My 2 relatives , both bought their projects..
i) Carnation Villa – When my relative pay the booking fee, the brouchur provided by OM shows one type, when he go to sign S&P, luckily he discover / found the floor plan totally difference with the brouchur, he refuse to sign and quikily go back to check again the brochur, IS TOTALLY DIFFERENCE.. OH SHIT….
He called to OM office to find what’s going on, NO BODY can answer.. ( NO BODY INFORM US / NO BLACK & WHITE about the changes ) so DISSAPPOINTED with Oriental Max

4) During their lauching, I joined my relative went to their Sg Dua Sales Office, for this Central Way 2 project, when we entered their office, their Sales Person explain to us the projects, SUDDENLY their Sales Manager – Jennie Lee Bee Lay ( I know her name because she gave us her name card ) shout her staff CHANGE PRICE LIST at the Sales Board, we ask her why no more rebate ?? She answer : Rebate is ONLY for first 50 purchasers, BUT, I counted 3 to 4 times and very CONFIRMED the sales board ONLY have 46 “SOLD stickers”, come on.. Oriental Max.. If want to cheat, this is NOT THE CORRECT WAY, we are not the small kids..

5) About Change name issue, may be just like one of their earliar project – Taman Pasir Ris ( Now Change to Taman Pasir Indah ), they change this project also without reason.

6) The last point I can share is : THE WORST I believe, Material they shows in their show house ( Italy Brand ) and the material used is from TAIWAN.
NO QUALITY, CHEAP PRICE MATERAIL and even colour also far far difference.. So dissappointed..

7) Another issue is, my relative bought a unit at Carnation Villa – Link House, he pay first 10% by early this year, he check with lawyer and signed S&P in almost that period, but when he ask for STAMPED S&P, he called to OM office middle August, Mr Beetor told him STAMPED S&P ONLY ready after their director (Mr Ch;ng ) back from overseas after 30th August,
BUT, THIS IS NOT TRUE, WE PURPOSELY CALLED TO CHECK DURING THAT PERIOD, MR CH’NG NOT AT OVERSEAS AND ALL THE WHILE IN OFFICE (SG DUA OFFICE ) His Car In & Out every day in his office, WHY OM want to tell lie ? Please explain ..

HOPE ALL BUYERS / PROPERTY INVESTOR BE MORE CAREFUL..

AND TO GET BACK THE REFUND AS FAST AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE THEY FACING FINANCE DIFFICULTY, THEY COLLECT $$ TO COVER THOSE IN PROGRESS PROJECTS , LIKE CENTRAL WAY 1, AND DELAY THOSE UNSTARTED PROJECTS

@Gary Chan
Have you ask Mr Beetor why he said the director is at oversea while all the while ur seeing the car in and out ?

@Gary Chan
Not facing those condition you mention while booking CW1, for the material used have to verify again at the site. As last time visit, I see they bought a lot of “white horse” brand tiles(if I not mistaken) to waiting install at those unit(not show house)

@Gary Chan
Thanks for ur sharing.
I shall be more careful when I’m going to sign the S&P in future.

@JC
Are u aware of any significant impact on changing name of the project like the case in CW2?
coz developer name on my original booking is setia jutaria. I guess not much issue on the developer name to me.

@Gary Chan

Tq for ur comment. I havent face any issue with tis developer yet.
I hope OM slaes person or management have to be careful when dealing with customer.
one bad comment fr customer will scare away many potential buyer.
Regarding changing name, i think the right is on municipal council (majlis bandaran), now they dun like english name any more, they prefer malay name. so, snp and actual taman name can differ.

The message here is not to buy the house, those who think they are a little money here says that is not good, or that there is not good! If the person is determined to buy not leave a comment at here! Believe youvision and Developer!

I and my cousin visited OM the next day after they changed their price for Central Way 2, it was Sunday if I’m not mistaken. This was the 2nd time we visited their office. We were shock that the price became RM385K instead of RM400K at that moment and the reason is they have reached first 50 early birds yesterday, (we did check on their board that time) Luckily, we were told that the RM15K rebate is still available for those who purchase on that day even they have 50 over sales, no 15K rebate after that day, I suppose this is their marketing strategy also la. We proceed for booking process after that, and the form that she signed is under Senam Jaya and the taman name is under Central Way 2. After she aware of developer and taman name changing issue, she called and was told by developer that the name is approved by MPSP as they only approve name in Malay but the English name and the specification is still remain the same. Developer changed to Setia Jutaria as Phase 1 also under this developer. Is the developer telling same statement to all of the purchasers?

Hi Karen, yes it was sunday cause i also placed a booking on that day… i also face the same situation as you luckily the 15K discount still available on that day… about the change name of the taman and developer are just same as they told to u and me… @karen wong

Every developer no matter well known or not, will receive bad comments, at least, OM is still a well known developer in mainland (compare to other small developers); and they already successfully hand over of thousand of completed units including recently the Delink 2 at Bagan Lallang, (Yes, it is still call and name displayed as Delink2, but ‘1Malaysia name in Taman Seri Segar’; anyway, what a big deal, i am not sure, may be this is one of the requirement for obtaining O.C), they start delivering the keys to owners since August and everything going good.

While you commenting about bads as you received bad service from them (probably), there are still lot of others doing well with them (OM). Even IJM also received lot of bad comments, and Ideal especially, saying they can’t deliver or bad reputation, but go and see what is the quality they deliver on One Residences? and more and more on going projects that selling good from them too.

OM is working many projects recently, i think the most in ever, the under construction Mesra Permai 2, even thought shoplots + apartment, the apartment already sold out more than 60%. CW sold out, CW2 sold out more than 80 units; Carnation, Pasir Indah, Sungai Jawi Projects, and upcoming project in Sugnai Puyu (giant size of residential township) are all line up….

want to let go my booked unit CW2, got rebate, not sure can transfer to another person or not…

anyone interested?

@kaka
Kaka, y u wanna let go? CW2 no good? wt is the price?

How much central way price

Ya, before that i also shock enough after i know their project name was change (from CW2 to Villa seri setia), but after that OM sales person got make clear to me regarding to this circumstances, thus, i forgive it la, BUT NO NEXT TIME!!! By the way, i also one of the CW2 purchaser, but i was successful changed my house plot number after the past two days i have bought the house, and they give me sign a letter regarding to the changing plot matter. It was so good!! And i think it suppose to be not a Big Problem if you would like to change the plot number before signing SPA lor!

I think the OM is not too bad. Even IJM and SP Setia project also there is a lot of complaints. Even OM not like IJM, DNP, Tambun Indah but they are very careful in the selection of the project site. They not ‘cincai-cincai’ choose the area for our living.

About the name project i think it not a big issue, i take an example one taman at mainland (sorry cant be displayed here) have a very nice, exclusive and luxurious name (english name) but the environment at that taman very severe for being a foreigners placement until resident at that taman ashamed to mention the name in English. For CW still can use in English or bahasa and the important is the good of life.

To me English or Malay name for the project is not a big deal, provided location and floor layout is good. Hope OM can starts this project soon.

@2D
agree with u..if comfortable use in English can tell people u live in Central Way Park. If comfortable use in Bahasa can tell people u live in Taman Senam Jaya. There are no restrictions and no force.

One of the most prestige condominium in Penang Island, at Straight Quay, once a while calle ‘Quayside Condo’; now, changed the name to Andaman Condo. What a big deal? It is selling over RM1000psf.

Btw, my friend who bought the Delink2 (a.k.a Taman Seri Segar), got his keys, and satisfy with the quality, a lot better than phase 1, and got to know one of the intermediate unit already sold at RM455k (original price at RM293k). Go google it, the asking price is hitting RM550k. So, still thinking too much on CW or CW2?? The price for CW2 is now RM400k.

Tambun Indah’s 3 storey link house already sold from price RM599k till RM700k++ and need to wait 3 years from now, near to Delink2, so, RM500k for the ready made Delink2 is acceptable, some how it is located at Raja Uda area.

@Sean CS

CW2 not bad but i prefer hse in seberang jaya.

Interested can email me zeph666@gmail.com

@Doc
Good, this prove that they are delivering the same thing to the purchasers instead of telling different version of story. My cousin is now thinking of how to renovate her house even her loan is yet to be approved! haha

@kaka
Central Way 2 is a very worth buy project, either for own stay and even investment. My income is not strong enough to own another house, if not, definitely I will get one of it. I will inbox you if I have friend interested with it.

3 storey with g&g, over 2400sf, and with price RM400k, where can get beside this CW2, in Bukit Tengah area?

even a 1400sf condo at mainland already sold at RM320k.

all so hard sell about this project…2400sf because of 3 storey, each storey only 800sf..
what’s so big deal?

compare to nearby similar project of double storey which selling at 400k, of course this project with 3 storey is more worth to buy. the disadvantage of this project is the road accessibility, if developer able to overcome it with open up a new road, it is more convenient.

@joe
each storey only 800sf?? still small? most of penangites are living in 700sf apartment and below 600sf on those LMC.

850sf apartment at Sg Ara Penang island cost RM380k (Idaman Iris)

upcoming project from this OM, at Sugai Puyu, stay tune.

@John Chor
dont think you are doing the right comparison, without the 2nd floor it is just 1600sf.
or build one more floor, you can get 3200sf and size like a semi d

2400sf because of 3 storey, each storey only 800sf..what’s so big deal? Definitely NOT A BIG DEAL for rich people lor, like me just WAIT MONTHLY SALARY INCOME and so call consider Low-Medium income personal is A NOT ONLY A BIG DEAL BUT IS A BEST DEAL!!!! 3 storey lnk house 2347 sf, dont compare with island price la, at mainland also HARD to find it ar, samemore G&G concept…850sf apartment already up to RM380K!!! Crazy price samemore is “highrise” please is not “hard sell” but is a “FACT”…@joe

@Doc
It is super duper crazy for those youngsters looking for a house just to get married or living together, looking at the 850sf with RM380k, original units (although with 2 car park).

OM has one apartment project, 1600sf above, only sell at RM310k onwards, at Bagan Lallang.

the price is very reasonable for this 3 storey terrace. Now the government will perform rumah mampu milik. In penang rumah mampu milik fixed at RM160k to RM300K. So the price for 2 storey and 3 storey automatically increase over RM300k coz if not it will be categorized as rumah mampu milik.

Is there still any unit available for CW 2?

@Lady Gogo
rumah mampu milik price at Penang fixed already? RM160k in mainland only? I think in Penang Island should be at RM300k above. May be RM300k till RM500k, and size from 700sf till 1100sf.

@karen wong

sure thanks, got one pls drop me an email.

@kt1

want to let go my booking with rebate, interested?

Compare to almost similar project such of 3 storey at BM highland@488k, BM residence@448k, Carissa vila@628k, this project consider worth…

@kaka

which unit? how much?

@kaka
I am very doubt, and curious, will you get anything or earn some commission if you let go your ‘rebated’ unit to others? Why don’t just let it go? Or, developer won’t refund your deposite? But if you can get a buyer to replace you, then can get back all deposite?

I think a well established developer like Mah Sing, IJM, etc. will not do refund if you transfer to others after booking for ‘early bird’ price. Not sure OM will give face to allow this.

If can simply transfer, then developer ma very ‘bo eng’; then everyone can simply booking during early bird and transfer to others with few thousands commision. Easy money huh!

@kt1

at same price what i booked. i read others comment, not sure rebate can transfer, have to ask developer together if you interested.

For sure i want let go.

@kaka
Why wanna let go? Change decision so fast? In fact, this is a great project, mostly you will regret after 3 years from now…..you may seeing subsale of the completed units at RM500k.

i found hse in sbg jaya. i born and bred here. at that time I booked cw2 because already exhausted all choices, i don want wait all hse price hiked up and in the end i only can afford simpang emgpat or tambun.

i do not intend to earn extra just want let go with the price i booked. I know it is hot selling now so wanna ask got someone interested if they are looking one.

@kaka
So,whaat house u have found in sbg jaya,mind to share?

@Yong
Sbg Jaya even more expensive.

kaka :i found hse in sbg jaya. i born and bred here. at that time I booked cw2 because already exhausted all choices, i don want wait all hse price hiked up and in the end i only can afford simpang emgpat or tambun.
i do not intend to earn extra just want let go with the price i booked. I know it is hot selling now so wanna ask got someone interested if they are looking one.

You can get back your deposit in full if loan rejected by 2 banker, I got a friend who furnished incomplete documents plus salary voucher to bank and at the end loan was rejected due to weak income documents

@BJ

yes but banker do not process your application if incomplete docs. With complete docs i afraid will pass.

Just in case only, i see this project still selling hot no harm asking here see got ppl interested…. this is still soft launch right? if official launch then may be..

@kaka
This project is selling hot, after came out in newspaper, the sale shoot up, now over 80 units sold.

Nice house + cheap price = sold out

Delink 2 for sale, similar design to this one, at Raja Uda, can view the house! Please let me know if you’re interested. RM480k onwards.

Delink sell 480k ??

Delink 2 Rm480 onward…… better buy Palm Villas G&G swimmingpool with roof top near to Raja Uda Rm550+ to Rm 600++…

now palm villas prices reach 700k++ already ……..

@RU
I think palm villas RM550k++ was 2 years back price, even now you have RM700k, you also can’t get a good unit which facing the center garden/pool. New launch Tambun Indah Carrissa Villa at Bagan Lallang already selling at RM600k++ to RM800k, probably you should say better buy Palm Villas with RM700k, yes, indeed, it is a good buy if RM700k, rather than Carrissa Villa, but only last 18 units left for CV even at RM600k++ price range.

Delink2, RM480k? Very hard, i think at RM500k++, as it is located at the very peacefull and nice environment, convenient to go many shops near by. The first unit transacted for Delink2, according to developer office guy, was at RM480k.

@Ah Dog
Do you know the price in palm villas that the house facing the school ? Is there any unit for sale now?

Palm villas not worth to buy, as price very high, and monthly maintenance fee also high. Better go and see Delink at Bagan Lallang.

Palm Villas got facilities, Delink no facilities……that why maintenance fees higher than Delink lor……..

I read thru comment shared by Mr Gary Chan, really appreciate that.

I oso one of the victim and would like to share my opinion to avoid more and more people cheated by oriental max..
( I bought one of their project, I’m so regret because have to solve defect problem myself )
“~~ Still remember what happened in year 1996 ? There’s one famous developer in penang, after he completed his first project (1 – Stop), subsequently he run his others projects – Prangin Mall, Bukit Jambul Complex, Mega Mall Pacific, Taman Selatan, Taman Utara, Taman Hijau Apartment & others projects at the same time.~~”
In year 1997, economic crisis, who suffer ? We all purchasers suffered, I was the purchaser for Taman Hijau, according to the S&P, 36 months to hand over the project, but that project hanged for how many years, who pay our interest ? ( Because the developer “Lari Diri” )
This is what happen like Oriental max now, according to their internal staff, they get their salary ONLY every 6th of the following months. ( Last time every month end), they having SERIOUS FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY.
Just simple explaination, how oriental max run their projects, just like our Malaysia economy, ( 6 penutup to cover for 10 periuk )
My friends and relative bought their Central Way 1, until today this project ONLY reached 60% completion.
I already made the survey for the past 2 months, they started Central Way 2, follow by Taman Pasir Indah, I just received phone call today, their staff told me they going to launch their latest new project at Sungai Puyu ( Maple Residence )
Dear all Purchasers / Property Investor :
From my comment above, I believe you all can understand what I want to say, right ?
Ok, if you not understand, let me explain in more detail :
Oriental max facing SERIOUS FINANCIAL DIFFICULT ( this info is from their own internal staff ) they do not have enough fund to complete their existing project, likes Central Way 1, they launched and collect money from Purchasers of Central Way 2 AND Tmn Pasir Indah, and one more project / apartment near to Jln Ong Yi How, now they want to start run their another project, still “NOT ENOUGH FUND”, launch again “Maple Residence” to collect fund from this project purchasers,
The conclusion is : those purchasers for earliar projects NOT FULLY SAVE because a lot defect already COMPLAINED & COMPLAINED but the defect problems NOT SOLVED even NO BODY TO ENTERTAIN you. One of my friend spend his own pocket money to repair, he said REALLY DISSAPPOINTED with this oriental max. He swear he won buy any project from this idiot developer even 90% discount.
( So many defect due to POOR QUALITY of WORK )
For those already obtained the houses, but still have to facing many defect problems.
For those just bought their new / latest projects, can you imagine if one day they tell you they have NOT ENOUGH FUND to complete your houses, just like what I mentioned above : 6 penutup to close 10 periuk,
for example : for those first 6 projects purchasers bought from oriental max, you can successfully obtained your houses but may be headache with MANY MANY DEFECT PROBLEMS.
For the rest of 4 projects purchasers, GOD BLESS YOU !!!
From : Steven Soh

@Steven Soh
Wow, really that serious? You have been magnified the situation you’re facing in the past with this developer? or you’re the competitor to OM? OM’s future project and portfolio is really good, i think serious buyers will know and all their projects completed ahead of schedule. Even the Taman Mesra Indah apartment at Jln Ong Yi How also same, start piling work already. No issue at all…..

Better buy completed house, expensive also ok. don’t worry at all ma………

Ah Dog :@Steven Soh Wow, really that serious? You have been magnified the situation you’re facing in the past with this developer? or you’re the competitor to OM?

I think Steven Soh jealous of OM success.

@Jealousy
i agree with you and i do not understand where is the problem of his relative who bought Central Way 1 which complete 60% after a year of launch, does he expect the project fully complete within a year? or he expect the developer complete 60% of projects but the developer never take any sen from purchaser?

The negative statement up there wasn’t true and unfair. I am the delink2 owner, and got the keys recently and found out the overall quality of delivery of delink2 is simply better than delink. This indicates they have improvement. O.C by August’2012, ahead of schedule, which is due by April’2013.

Yes, the jalan ong yi how apartment project by OM is currently start construction already, and a lot of projects by OM in future and yet, more and more good project by OM.

@Xia
There is a swimming pool, maintenance for swimming pool need RM5000 per month.

Dear all CW buyers,today I pay a visit to the show house. We find out there are a lot of cracks on the walls of living room,2nd floor bedroom especially. Please file a formal complaint to OM developer to look into this matter seriously.

Better believe in Steven Soh’s comments !!!!

guys gals, may i know, is this condition normal? i bought a unit CW2 with rebate 15K. but SNP wrote the house price is 385K instead of 400K. the fact is the house price is 400K and i js lucky as early bird gets the rebate, why SNP stated discounted price? is this normal? should i INSIST SNP stated 400K?

thx for any feedback and comment / opinions.. thx..

Ya, I did notice that crack and water spot during last year and some of buyers did send the complaint letter to OM and we get reply from OM to look serious into this issue.

In fact you can request to write 400k in the SNP so that you can loan more and pay less for deposit of 10%, else it is nothing wrong to put ur actual purchase price of 385k.

For my case, the SA or lawyer side (I forget which side alrdy) did ask me to put 338k or 358k in SNP and I decide just write 338k only. You can request to write 400k in order to get higher loan.

icic, thx a lot.. then i shall request them to write 400K instead of 385K..

@SY
I really hope that OM will take seriously to fix the cracks ASAP. These make us feel worried as the show house is only launched for 1 year. Guys, please stand up and constanly monitor the progress and inform OM if anything goes wrong.

As for the water spot, I did saw developer put a blue plastic sheet at bottom as preventive.

@Jojo
Crack early already known to them, they already give us a satisfactory answer, you took the keys inside after 24 months they will help me to pay back (if you renovated the rift did not lose)

Phase 2 now is selling price is 408k ,so u can loan 408k liao ……. ^_^

@Steven Soh
Oh Steven Goh & Believer, you better change your comment and believe OM can do it and do it better and better from now; visit their official website to find out more:- “http://www.orientalmax.com.my/” No point to scare those buyers out there. For those issue you have pointed out, yes, it happens and happened too to those well known developers project like IJM, Mah Sing and etc.

What is the issue for a developer like OM to always having their project sold out very soon, completed ahead of schedule, 24 month warranty (their project always have cracks, flaws, missing kitchen washing basin, etc.) to fix problem. Look at it’s De-Link2 just completed and O.C project, key hand over so smooth and now, residences are doing renovation and hope to move in before CNY (btw, the S&P key handover by May’2013); and agent is asking for RM500k for very limited units people want to let go.

http://www.orientalmax.com.my/** reveal multiple promissing project line up, and the delink2 sold out & completed projects. Mostly gated & guarded projects. Maple Residence selling at RM438k, what is the price expected for delink2?

Mainland landed property at prime area is appreciating faster than Island, as Island is too expensive to be owned. Second bridge completed, then can ideal for ‘live in mainland, work at Island’.

ya you should as there is the actual price of your house. I bought an apartment from other developer the price was stated at the original price even I was given a rebate of RM10k. So the developer issued a credit note to me. So my house price is remaining at the original one not the discounted one

@chong
But if S&P shows the original price and not the discounted price, will it cause the subsequent stamp duty to be higher when title is issued?

@Shawn
no effect on title issue but u need to pay higher fee for lawyer & stamp duty.

So, What is the point of having higher price/before discount price on S&P?

Wow, noticed the CW already fully sold out!

Ah Keong :
Wow, noticed the CW already fully sold out!

CW 2 fully sold out ??

I saw the 2nd showhouse next to the corner unit already started renovation especially on the plaster ceiling and lighting. I thought strata title has mentioned that renovation can only be carried out after vacant possession with approval from management office. How can this thing happen during construction period?

The unit initially plan to be complete with interior design and open as shown house. But heard that half way of renovation someone already bought it and buyer don’t want continue renovate. So that y the show house is renovate half way.

Why this Steven Soh make bad comments on all of OM project. I see it in Maple Place as well………..@Steven Soh

Steven said bad because he is from competitive developer.

@Ah Huat Cafe
you rock!

@Ah Huat Cafe
maybe too, some competitor which want to goreng the price but OM properties price are reasonable so their launching price can’t go higher than OM

Ah Huat Cafe :
Steven said bad because he is from competitive developer.

He dare to comment but not dare to answer people’s doubts or question.

CW buyer, anyone is withdrawing the EPF to pay the downpayment 10% after signing the S&P? Do u all mind to share your experience on applying EPF? I heard that after S&P, the lawyer will need to produce a formal letter for buyer to apply. How long it takes to approve the application?

@Jojo
Just follow instruction from your lawyer, your lawyer should give you some document and a list of photocopy document needed to apply, once filled up the form, then go to EPF office to submit. Once successfully submitted, EPF will bank in the money to your bank account in ~2 weeks. Mine very fast. But for 1st withdrawal. 2nd withdrawal will not go into your bank.

@John Chor. Thanks for your sharing.
@JC Are all CW units painted yellow and changing back to grey colour as like stated on the brochure?

@Jojo
You won’t know the color untill they paint it. Like Delink2, in brochure and even the illustration that show on their website now (http://www.orientalmax.com.my/), the color look very elegant but they still insist use other color which look not so elegant. OM should fire the designer who decide the color.

Jojo :
@John Chor. Thanks for your sharing.

The shown house grey colour can says more or less same as brochure, but developer says that brochure white colour is brown colour in actual, just the brochure shown lighther compare with actual

Their official website’s projects look very nice! Especially Mesra Permai 2, worth to buy as the location very good.

@Bang
hi..u guys are not considering ocbc? i just sign up a loan package from ocbc n the agent offered me quite a good rate..

CW 1 OC obtained ? How many year it taken to complete ? What is CW 1 selling prices (sub sell) ?

Not yet complete, CW will complete in year 2014. Oriental Max recent OC obtained project is Delink2, at Bagan Lallang, sub sale price at RM500k onwards. Can go and take a look, very strategic location and nice environment, surrounding look classy, especially go at nite time, the lighting from houses surrounding very nice.

@investor
Go and take a look on Delink2, very nice, although buyers start complaining it’s quality problem, but they will fix it, hopefully.

Ah Dog,
So CW and CW2 will mimic concept & environment as Delink 2 ? RM500k for intermediate size ?

@investor
CW2 is RM408k. They are the same design.

investor :
Ah Dog,

there is still plenty units of phase 2 at 408k, impossible could subsell intermediate unit for 500k at this moment.

OMG, believe it or not, Delink 2 was sold at the price of RM480k without go thru agent. Anyway, there are some units available at the price of RM470k. These are price for intermediate units, those corners lot and extended car porch lots not available yet.

anyone want to let go for the central way 1?

kt1 :
anyone want to let go for the central way 1?

why don’t look for phase 2? i guess there are units available.

hope can get in to the new house faster….and for Central Way 2 seem like not so far from the electric cable……yes central way 2 still got quite some units available….

@kt1
CW1 is now at RM450k for intermediate unit, I don’t think anyone want to let go.

John Chor :
@kt1

Wah! then it probably hit RM 500k when the project finish.

@KS
I think you’re under estimate the price once completed, it can easily over RM550k or RM600k once completed.

ai mei 600 k lo ~~

How is the progress now?

Add at fb { CentralWay Bukit Tengah } have detailed information ！
@ks

oriental max is the BIG LIAR

@Bo Ta Chek
Why you say so? They dissapointed you? This can’t be avoided even you buy from big big developer.

The entrance road through taman kerjasama is in teruk condition!! new houses but with potholes road… can Oriental Max do something on this?

Buyer :The entrance road through taman kerjasama is in teruk condition!! new houses but with potholes road… can Oriental Max do something on this?

That is why i choose Orange Villa than Central Way …. feel bad if the road so lousy !!

@Buyer

Very ‘teruk’ and very narrow to be exact.

When i first visit the site, i already rule out this CWay. Too bad the enterance and sur-rounding taman. Totally no CLASS at all. Orange Villa is a better place. Surrounding by MPSP government building and stadium/pool.

Anyone interested to let go your DST pls email me at lawrence9973@gmail.com.
Thx

Really lousy developer. They use common red brick to built the interlock paver. I work in construction site more than 20 year. This is the first time i saw in the construction site the developer use common brick to replaced interlock paver. Interlock paver is 10 time stronger than common brick, 4 times expensive than common brick & much, much look nice than common red brick. The more Important reason is interlock paver maintenance free. interlock paver is stone. Please go to visit Central Way 1, you will panic. Central Way 2 & others Oriental max project will use same material if purchaser keep silence.

If Oriental Max boss & staff don’t know what is interlock paver, please go to Palm Villas, Pearl Villas, Orange Villa, Mandarin Quarter & other developer’s project study & not keep ignorant all purchaser.

Really disappointed with the grandmother’s design for the paver. The dirty red brick will broken into small piece in future due to human walk or run above it. Our children will hurt by the broken brick if not carefully fall down. Don’t know why use grandmother design in this new project.

If u go and check out the road in front of ur house, u will cry….so narrow.

Visited the site, uploaded pictures (low quality red bricks, narrow road, TNB poles….) at here:

Road so narrow in between 2 houses! One car reverse out and another site have to wait. Strictly no side car park for visitor.

Jialat. So narrow, affect air ventilation into the house.

@calvin
If i am a purchaser sure will complained to housing department, local authorities & local politician, let all party judge who is ‘cheater’ & try to keep ignorant people.

This developer really optimizing their profit!!

The car porch area is so small! Ngam ngam for Wira length only. Internal road a bit narrow. Road surface also very rough, may be they will do another layer later. The light yellow color scheme made the house looks old..:(

About the interlock paver, nothing wrong ler. Sunway, IJM and DNP also using the rectangular interlock. As i mentioned before, only the shape is different from what u see in outside nia..

According to GP022 document provided by M’sia authority, page 11, internal road of GnG area should be 12m (40ft) minimum:

http://www.mpsns.gov.my/documents/10124/04ded712-40f5-4be3-ad08-b61794a95172

Lebar minimum jalan dalaman bagi menampung pergerakan kenderaan, penunggang basikal dan
pejalan kaki adalah 12 meter. Kelebaran ini meliputi:
a. 7 meter untuk laluan kenderaan dua hala.
b. 2.5 meter untuk laluan pejalan kaki (satu arah
atau kedua-dua arah).
c. 2.5 meter untuk utiliti dan longkang

So, can the buyers go to file complaint against the greedy developer?

If I am a buyer, will i go complain and delay my house approval?

CW1 is G&G house but look worse than normal terrace house, electric cable simply connect look ugly, road rough than normal road, no landscape garden, I scare CW2 also build like that, I go complain but they told me no any CW owner complain…zzz

@CW2 owner Where got developer told you their project got many comment from buyer, Centralway complain until go to their office hit table but their boss hide inside room & don’t want to entertain them.

All the buyers here dont dare to file complaint, because majority buy to flip. They scared complain too much, their property cannot sell, then they will die cock standing. the developer know this weakness, so they are so brave to do what ever they want.

Hi Mr Buyer, I have a unit to sell at price of RM580k.
Kindly contact me for more details if you are interested on this project.
Thanks.

Best Regard,

RM450K I will consider.

RM400k I will also consider.

this project completed?

Has any buyers get your key from the developer already?

Orinetal max office staff told me that project will delay 6 month because OC can not get approval from MPSP. What problem they don’t want to let know.

Walau…delay 6 month…then OM got pay back the money?

In this case of delaying, buyers will still have to pay the interest to Bank since developer is not absorbing that, is that true with the buyers here? Anyone knows historically their projects get delayed as well?

Orange Villa use 2 years to complete their project, but this project 3.5 years still can’t get OC.
What happen to it?

The project already VP, pending bank to release the money

Just because pre ahead of schedule, Orange Villa has so much defects and quality problems. You will never know how poor is the workmanship of Orange Villa by looking the external building.

Hi there, is there any resident moving in Central Way 1?
How’s the security and maintenance there?
Appreciated all input on this.
Thanks.

Hi cw1..
may I know how much OM pay for delayed oc? ?

OM lousy developer, cheater. Beware!!!!

@Casandra
Why say so? Mind to share?

I was very regretted to buy the Oriental Max property due to poor quality and poor service as well. There were many unexpected defects especially the workmanship after checking. It was also very difficult to complain. Please think twice before you purchase…
