    After completed, the price will be above RM500k for 1182sf typical unit; and RM400k++ for 900sf. The supply is not enough for penang population growth.

  21. Tombtalk
    May 13th, 2012 at 17:39 | #21

    Anyway, the price for typical condo will above RM500psf after 3 years from now, or 2015 onwards. Hong Kong, as top 3 most liveable city in Asia, is at ~RM1,000psf for their typical very high dense apartment and far away from city center. Penang is at #8 most liveable city in Aisa, RM500psf consider very cheap :)

    True also lar. But Idaman Lavender is closer to the main road ma…Anyway, have to see whether the asking price is sustainable or not lor, so many units for sale… But now hor, everybody is rushing to buy if got new project below RM350psf or if got 5-6% rebate + DIBS lor. And everybody said it is a good buy lar. Hehe…

    But you can ask how much GSD want to sell those returned units, then sell a little bit cheaper than them lor. I am sure they will sell it at least 10% higher than the ori price one… to make existing buyers happy ma. Hehe…

    2000sf onwards condo selling at RM300psf is normal, as it is big, but for Zan Palvillon, sorry to say that it is absolutely not a public’s favorite, like the Uban. Now, if want to get new condo with RM350psf, it is almost impossible unless you buy Condo at Teluk Kumbar, those want to look for RM350psf, please anticipate the Platinum 3 at Teluk Kumbar, launching this year.

    no need to go so far to Balik Pulau lah, remember there are still lots of available apartments at Paya Terubong there which resurvivied after being abandoned during the last economy crisis at year 97-98. For short term future just pray that the housing price can maintain and will not dive steeply lah as external & internal economy also worsen…

    Stop dreaming,you won’t see Condo in B.Pulau even in 6 years time.
    Those people buying landed properties are for those local in B. Pulau.
    In time to come other than the local people they will realize that to
    stay in B’worth is much preferred due to the availability of conveniences.

  51. ah beng
    May 16th, 2012 at 18:05 | #51

    Based on banker, the developer not yet get the adpl approval from the government. So they cannot process the loan, why the developer are asking us to apply for loan and sign SnP. Like a bit nonsense, any idea anyone?

  52. WTH
    May 16th, 2012 at 19:24 | #52

    RHB and PBB got green light already. AMMB still waiting approval at KL, should get approval before signing SPA. Sent all my applications out. But RHB only provided -2.3, not competitive at all.

    You are quite persistent lar. Later @WTH will hantam you with personal attack you and calling you small kid then you know… Hehe…

    I think the banks are doing the background check on the applicants now lor if you have submitted your application, signing SnP without APDL is just wasting your interest for your 10% downpayment lar, because cannot get stamped yet lar. And risk on the potential change in the site plan. You know now state government keep asking developer to contribute something to the public one ma. Soon will know lar…

  56. ah beng

    wah! this is like ‘go up the bus first, buy ticket later’, while they keep the SnP not stamping, buyers cannot runaway but they no need to bear legal responsibility! so unfair! Why rushing buyers to pay while they applying APDL? afraind market collapse and buyers runaway? If price going to appreciate then no need so rush mah…

    wbk, i will only hamtam you…i won’t sign anything until the bank things settled. If bank only offered you 80% and you unable to pay the developer 20%. Then your RM5000 will take by developer and the SPA will be cancel. They will charge 10% of your booking fee only if you failed to get bank loan or cancel before sign the SPA. Pls double check before you decided to sign the SPA.

  61. Toyota 86
    May 20th, 2012 at 17:58 | #61

    @Caroline

    zan pavillon not public favourite is due to

    1)high monthly maintaince RM330 up
    2)sharing entrance base with low cost project next to it
    3)original launch price RM400k only
    4)big layout with no practical utilization

  62. Camry too
    May 20th, 2012 at 21:57 | #62

    The maintainence in RM198 inclusive of sinking fund.

    The so-called the low cost project is asking about 250k now in the market, about RM360/ft. Whether that is low cost is very subjective.

    Zan Pavillon original launch price from RM458K the lowest floor onward.

    The only drawback is the surrounding area not yet spruce up and a little messy but sure will be improved with the completion of Setia Green ans Siara 81 etc.

    There’s different entrance for Zan Pavillon and Zan Ara. BTW, Zan Ara RM250k for 700sqft is no longer low cost.

    Seems like developer has upper hand lor… Hehe… But hor, why this developer wants people to sign SnP without panel bank lawyer ler? They must be trying to fool people that don’t know the process one lar… Actually buyer can deny signing the SnP if there is no lawyer present one lor… unless you are more desperate than them lar…

If the project not approved or cancelled, do you have to pay the bank penalty of 3% of the loan amount? If really so then jia lat lar… this developer seems like asking people to sign so that can get their 10% and lock in the purchase, even without the plan approved. SnP should have site plan one ma, cannot simply change one lar…

    Of course cheque is for Sierra Residence purchase lar, and payable to GSD sdn bhd… but when you ask them who keep the money since the plan not yet approved, they either tell don’t know, or bluff you that GSD will keep, or tell you lawyer will keep lar. How to know lawyer will keep ler? Ha…. now you know buying property have to play hardball one lar… no need to be too friendly to developer lar… hehe…

    First time fully agreed with you (wbk) yes, play hard with developer. As long as SPA not sign, 10% not yet pay, the ball is on our hand. I will sign only if bank loan approved. Else, i will just drop the project.

    Better check whether there will be a block of low cost flat attached or next to it before sign SnP….the authority may have such requirement in order to approve the APDL.

    Lady and Gentlemen!!!

    This is the problem!!! Don’t let people like Gary drink your blood and eat your meat!!! I am sure people like Gary must have do lots of booking here and there and try to make 50K here and there by letting go his booking.

    That’s one of the reason the property price shoot up sky high over the last few years in Penang Islang and also mainland.

    Lets team up and not to let these people make money so easily!!!

    Listen, if you don’t buy from him, i don’t buy from him, everyone don’t buy from him…Gary is going to get stuck with all the units he is holding now.

    After 1 or 2 years when he needs to serve all the high interests or installment, he will start to feel pressure and that’s time he will sell his house cheap, (unless he is millionaire) or the bank will come and re process his property (assuming if he is holding 5 to 10 units and he needs to pay RM 2k for unit…sure he can not tahan).

    That’s time to buy!!!!

    Don’t buy from people like him…

    Or, buy the new launching property!!!

    Lets work together and push the blood sucker out of the window!!!

    calm down, guys. Don’t be over excited just because some banks allow you to apply loan from them. Remember the banks loan to you because of your financial status, not the developer’s financial status. If the developer abandon the project halfway, you are going to to serve the loan, not developer. Make sure developer got the APDL before you sign the SnP. So fast already want to buy/sell here, may be just some ‘hot air blowing’ so that buyers not runaway..

    Please bear in mind, without stamping, we are still not able to take any action agains the developer if the project not completed on time.
    Our 10% $$$ still with the solicitor with no interest given.

    I won’t pay the 10% upon the bank loan approved. Else i will release the unit. Stick together, not to pay a single cent until loan approved. Yup ADPL is very important, but if they have so many big projects on hand and change the floor plan at very last minute. That will hit their reputation badly. I think SR is their cheaper projects at the moment except GT. “What you think, decided urself. no people can change you if you changed it by urself :) out of topic.”

    I believe will have more and more buyers release the unit if this APDL issue drag longer, now may be 60% still holding, then may be only left 40% 2 weeks later..then developer will need to lower the selling price to lure buyers or just abandon the project.

    They can’t stamp the SPA without ADPL, those who had sign SPA should notice the ADPL license no. which should be stated in the ADPL agreement, with the ADPL license no. then only can check on the goverment website whether this project is valid or not.

    There will be 2 contract to be sign, Snp (house price) and Suplemental agreement(car park + renovation) if i m not wrong, you all have no clue on this?? Normally people buy house do not have the renovation charges but this project have it but the overal price is the same as their selling price just the house price will be lower… Any concern on this??

    I hv no concerns as long as the loan amount no change. these may be the way to help the applicants to increase the chances to get loan approved.

    @ah beng
    1. more income tax when you sell house later (house price in snp lower than actual purchase)
    2. check the build up area, whether smaller build up area specified and they do renovation on ‘common area’ to include in your unit. Last time some developers used to do it.
    3. Does the contract limit your choice of renovation contractor so you have to use those gangster contractors setup booth there later?

    I understand from the sales girl at GSD, the bank will 1st release the $ upon completion of the car park, I think that is one of the reason the car park price is higher than the house price.

    If 39 level LMC is build just infront of us, what else can we see besides foreign worker?
