Starting price is RM280k with 2 single carpark. Schedule mid of next year to sign S&P doc and take 3 years to complete. Next friday 23/12 will only open for booking. Everything will be same as golden triangle:)

    Wordless to all the ‘potential’ buyer. No wonder the developer keep on increase the price, because everyone go and goreng, so…property price up not due to demand, but goreng, like queue up several days, Penang really reach this stage? I doubt no, only Hong Kong deserve it as international city. Everyone just goreng and keep on blowing bubble….

    I agree with ah dog, Pg Lang rEally spoil Mkt by goreng n want to make money only, typical kiasu attitude. After going bck pg, being away for 30yrs, the prices for Pg property is ridiculous n the developers are laughing their way to d bank. Very soon, btw or mainland side will catch up. Why is the govt allowing that to happen, when roads are not widened to ease d already bad congestion in relau n sg area. I pity our next generation. So pls do something about d roads n Pg Lang, pls don’t spoil Mkt. Read properly, it’s rm260k UPWARDS, so it’s just a catch n more often then not, developed will tell u it’s fully sold, only left d higher price one, haha

    I saw ppl from other state was there the other day, Wilayah, JB, I wonder why are they so greedy? Isn’t supposed this property is for those affort to buy, they are one of the reason that makes our property become expensive, I hope Penang Govt. will set a law that only allow those stay in Penang for more than 10 years to buy this kind of house, or the house may only reselling after 10 or 15 years, else the membasmi kemiskinan won’t work in Penang cause the low income ppl is not affortable to own a house.

    Will there aby early bird discount?

  78. donhue
    December 18th, 2011 at 11:52 | #78

    Just to share my experience. I queued up to book for their Golden Triangle when their last block launched. That time they had free back to back car park for 1st 80 buyers. The first person started queuing 1 day before around 3:00pm. I reached there about 9:00pm, and already got more than 80 people in queue. There were some foreigners who were hired to queue, while quite a lot were locals as well, and most of us were queued overnight. There were also housing loan agents from a few banks there telling you about their packages. I think the standard units were all sold out by the next day.

    Anyway, for comparison purposes, starting prices for units at that time was from about 340k. There were about 180 standard units for sale (non-penthouse & non-duplex units). Sierra starts from 280k, but there are about 400 units. The cheaper price would mean more people (own stay or investors) can afford to buy. But with more units to go around, maybe you all don’t need to queue overnight. You all be the judge. Good luck!

  79. Steve
    December 18th, 2011 at 12:00 | #79

    True… any other upcoming cheaper project in Penang?

  80. eric
    December 18th, 2011 at 12:19 | #80

    Where got 340k so expensive for TGT. On the first day launch for block I, after early bird discount, it’s ~RM236 psf excluding the 2nd car park. For 1165sqft at middle floor, it’s about 275k. If you add another single carpark, then it’s 295k. It’s impossible TGT more expensive than sierra. Don’t compare the total price, compare the per square feet price.

    December 18th, 2011 at 19:21 | #88

    @eric
    I’m mentioning based on my experience with M tower. At that time was from 290 psqf. For the smallest units at 1165, the starting price was at 340k.

    Reason why I used total price instead of price per square foot is because I was comparing affordability, and not the value of the property. With a minimum selling price of 340k, people were already willing to queue the day before, what more this is from 280k.

  89. Ah Lee
    December 18th, 2011 at 20:30 | #89

    @donhue
    ppl to Q because of early bird package, but this property not offer any early bird package, plus this property have to start to pay the installment after SnP signed. TGT is offering the payment after construction completed.

  90. Eric
    December 18th, 2011 at 21:17 | #90

    @donhue
    One thing you might miss out. On first day launch of tgt, you book unit without placing 5k. Due to this, the queue is so long. Some even bring their whole family and just have to put the name. SR is different as u need to place 5k when u book a unit on the first day launch. If u cancel later, GSD will only refund u 4.5k as rm500 wil deduct as legal fee. Anyway I still agree with u it’s at affordable range so it’s expected will be long queue and I think the “the single arm” Bangla as coordinator wil be there as well :)

  91. Ah Dog
    December 18th, 2011 at 21:29 | #91

    No need to queue la. Bear in mind next year applying loan will base on your net salary (meaning deduct income tax and EPF), then the remaining will be consider as your ‘income’.

  92. donhue
    December 18th, 2011 at 21:37 | #92

    @Ah Lee
    Yes, primary reason was for early bird package, but those after number 80 didn’t actually have to queue, right? But based on what I saw, there were many who still stayed there even after they knew they won’t get the early bird package.

    @Eric
    Yes, for I-Tower, they didn’t require any booking fee. But for M-Tower, we had to pay booking fee of RM 5k. Each person in queue was only allowed to buy 1 unit.

But buy for investment hv planning carefully, after @3 years complete, its this market oversupply (subsale or Renting) for this type of Apartment (@1000sf) ? ; Buyer hv many choice like : d’piazza, one world, one world II, elite height, olive tree residence, golden triangle, arena residence, setia triangle service apartment, fierra vista, Tunas muda project, future hunza development……..Good Luck !

    yes, you are right, if for investment, is not worse, I agree with u, Good Luck, I will have second taught after reading you message, is better to plan for another 3 years market, who knows, the price might drop. I won’t be there for anymore Q, perhaps I will only plan to get my own house another three years.

    I was seriously planning to buy but I was very dissapointed.

    What a stupid floorplan..No balcony for 900sft and 1000sft. And there is no place for you to dry ur clothes if you’re choosing 900sft layout. When I asked them about this concern, they were saying “we will review”. What kind of answer is this? For the 1182 sft layout, the price significantly went up to 400K+ for high floor. It’s a big no no for such price in such location. The theme 280K is just for those who are planning for laundry services without washing clothes on their own.

    More worst, you have to pay installment before completion on minimum 3 years basis. Meaning no guarantee that they will not drag or prolong the completion period. Remember, how many years this developer has to take to complete a project? Not even a track record it has.

    Not worth buying at all for own stay or even investment…Period

    @QQ bb’s Boyfriend

    I agreed on what you said, Golden triangle launched 2 years ago and now still under pilling stage, wondering when will this be completed? at year 2016 or 2018?? this developer is famous of being slow and never completed any projects yet! despite the layout, the reputation of the developer is very important as this is a risky developer. Im not planning to queue overnight as I think this will end up something like 10 years ago…….just hope they dont abandon their golden triangle and this one..

  103. QQ bb
    December 19th, 2011 at 11:21 | #103

    yes, all of you are right, we better look for a house that being completed, the other day when I was going to the side for viewing, it is seem like no activities are going on. Do you think that they are able to complete by another 3 years? What if not, who is going to bear the installment for us?

    Before the Info Day, I was the one who is really really 99% wanted to buy with such attractive price n facilities. After receiving multiple feedback, now it makes me think twice coz, gsd is not even a dot com company but just dot com dot my. Furthermore, there’s no Company Profile about it. When established? Who are the investors or directors etc. Some more the deposit is to paid to lawyer as trust fund. If anything happens, seems like no one we can refer. We just pray 2014 economy in good shape, else it’s risky investment i should say.

    December 19th, 2011 at 19:18 | #121

    @Catherine
    No need to check this and that..By looking at the floorplan you already knew that this developer is fully taking advantage on current market situation. It doesn’t even hit a basic expectation on what a condo should have. Condo without a balcony is called apartment/flat..somemore 900 sft no plc to dry ur clothes is very stupid…280K onwards theme is just a gimmick. Why launching in a rush? Because when the bubble burst/economic downturn, thr will be no more high margin to slash. They have foreseen it.. Wait and see..there are still many choices ahead in future. Do not get tricked for the 280K theme or u will regret for making wrong choices especially to those working ppl with hard earned money just to own a house with basic expectation…..

    if you guys want more security, ask for your own lawyer for SNP, usually developer will accept non panel lawyer but wont bear the cost. At least your own lawyer will make sure the SNP will be dated during signing.

    For those planning to own your 1st house, my sincere advice is don’t take this project to gamble as:
    1) Completion time – When? Even no 1 can tell you the signing date of S&P after the downpayment.
    2) Layout is suck – Don’t want to mention..pls refer to above comment from others.
    3) Location – haiz…no comment.
    4) Developer – playing all this kind of dirty trick (change project name, change company name, undertable money….etc) , are u feel confortable to put all your money on them?

    Today Hunza propetise had make a project development plan at Bukit Jambul, which going to take 18 months for completion once the approval obtain. 1000 unit of affordable unit will be build for 6.2 hectar land.
    At last is your decision to make your choice….is your money, don’t blame if make the wrong move.

    Ask you family member to help out and take turn to rotate. Download the latest Korean soap opera and load them into your laptop for your entertainment. Bring jacket too.

    Dear SK King
    You must be physically queue up in front of GSD when they open at 8.30am to give out number. Not in D’Piazza and let bangla cutting into your lane.

    Dear Johnny Boy
    In that case please report to KPDN and tell them some one setting up tent selling DVD. They are pretty efficient to remove those pesky stall.

    But i think 4xxk for 1100 sq with the view it will be ready in 3-4years. I would rather buy Summer Place which is already VP. Of course disregard the leasehold status. Maybe top up to 5xx and get a Zan Pavillion @ 2000sq

    Aiya most probably is their tactic to lure ppl. Hire ppl to queue. create a false scenario . seem like a lot of ppl want to buy. make everybody seem like can not miss this train.

    Are you sure or not? If really ask your mom to queue, you should have as her to sell the place to make 2.5K herself lar.

    when you at that situation, better go home for sleep rather than queue over there. that’s why you all saw few cats around there.

    if u look closely, can see the green color Tent set up by GSDLand and chair being placed there by GSDLand. instead of doing all this say 1 day b4 the launch, they set up the tent and chair on today. is clear the purpose is to generate some crowds and urgency for ppl not to miss this deal.

    sorry for bad camera quality.
