anyone got the latest update on the site progress?
i see some block is up to 3rd or 4th floor now…but not sure which block is that, mayb block A and B!
@yap
Not bad for own stay and certain units had been taken up.
i am looking to invest property in pg ,some one recommended me ideal property but i dun know which project is better,i am not a penangite so can some one be kind to advice me.thx alot.
@LSK
Ideal are one developer you should be cautious. Go for more trustworthy and reliable options if you can.
I think that’s block b. I’m not sure too haha but it’s weird since only one block has progress. @CTL
Block B build until fourth floor and Blood A nearly third floor complete d.
@Truth
why need to cautions to this developer? Any history do u know regarding this developer?
Have u read about Rich Focus, who have failed in this business?
Hi Rich Focus,
Can you share it. Appreciated.
Folks, i am new in prop investment ..interested in One Imperial project appreciate anyone of you would able to share about the background of the developer…TQ
I also want to know.. GSDland, Ideal, Reka Indah, Golden Virtue, Seal, Lion group, Ivory, Asia Green, Hunza, which one is more reliable and why?
Do understand Ideal also has another project Sparina near Penang international airport, what is comment from all ? worth to buy if compare to imperial project at sungai Ara ?
Why block c d e have no progress?
I went to check on the imperial residence. Overall there are still quite a number of units to be grabbed now. Right not, this is by far the most affordable newly launch project. I’m not too sure if I should buy one for myself given than it is actually quite high dense there. However, schools etc are quite nearby just have to mind the traffic I guess?
@Ben
Yes, there are many residential and commercial condos around this area.
IF the widening of the road is a success, then I welcome the future of this area as I foresee that it will boom provided with the right facilities.
Without a direct link to sPICE, this area cannot fly compare to Arena, Elite and so on.
Hemsley,
Pls look carefully the layout roads for the Imperial Residenses, there is proposed flyer from Relau direct to Spice.
@Househunter
Can you share the material or link? There was a proposed direct road to sPICE as well during the launching of Golden Triangle, but later on they said they will only widen the road in front of Golden Triangle. So for this case, Ideal is going to build it? Comment from the Tunas Muda boss earlier that the fly over will cost 50M and no developer can do it without the fund from federal gov. Until I see any official link showing the federal gov approved the fly over with funding, to me “proposed” is equal to none.
Hemsley,
Pls go to Ideal office and pick up the broucher for Imperial Residenses, look out for the location map of the project and you will notice the proposed flyer to Spice. However not sure who gonna pay for it, but Ideal should play a part.
@Househunter
So you meant the broucher. Then the proposed flyover to sPICE was there during the first condo launching there. It could still be a proposed flyover during the last condo launching at that area.
The whole piece of land is belong to Tunas Muda, and they split it to different development by different developer. Each developer need to contribute to the road network and widening at that area. And the boss of Tunas Muda already declared that they are not going to bare the cost of building the flyover.
@Hemsley
U got your point. Proposed can be none ! Yes, that flyover was just proposed. It’s not been approved yet. Too early to conclude that. It might be the one way type flyer that similar to what we have now at Lam Wah Ee.
Modular Platinum/Ideal has asked for 3rd payment-5% for having completing stage 2(f), skipping 2(c),(d),&(e).Any comment?
@Samtec
i also wonder they can skip it. But when I called to confirm from Ideal and the staff said they can simply jump here and there.
IDEAL please progressively update progress of construction on your website. Possible with photo taken as well.
@truth
can tell more why this developer is not reliable,any how i also thank for advice .
Can anyone tell me which project is better? Imperial residence (imperial II) vs sky cube.. both are launched ard the same time..
Their name is Tortise and Turtle!
do you guys check with your bank? whether ideal had started to pay the interest? since already 2 drawdown…
any discount for imperial residences?
Bank called me again chasing for interest payment… did u guy experience the same… wonder since this is under DIBS… =.=
@ctp
So what’s the outcome of the conversation with the bank? Have they stopped calling you and started chasing ideal instead?
Pls understand clearly, are they chase you to pay interest for home loan principle or your insurance interest???@ctp
Anyone can update on the latest progress of OI? This forum on OI seems to slow down tremendously. Whereas forum on project by GSD still very active.
Guys,
You all need to pay your monthly insurance interest. Do not forget that.
@Jenson
monthly insurance interest??? MRTA?
yes
@Jenson
I m new in property and this is my first time buying…
May i know how to pay for the MRTA? pay to bank?
@Lim
U can put in ur loan as one time payment or 12months installment method. Maybe u can get more advive from ur banker.
@Lim
You can pay to bank. That is why I did..
@Iambroke
I am factor in the MRTA into loan, is this means i do not need to pay for any interest on it?
mayb i should check with the banker..
thanks!
Can we claim back the monthly insurance interest from developer?
@Lim
You will need to pay MRTA interest which is added together with mortage loan. Meaning double interest pay by you. I’m providing services MLTA (interest free) . We can compare MLTA vs MRTA
@Lim

I personally prefer to add more premium in health insurance with investment type protection rather than MRTA or MLTA to offset the risk. Only greedy bankers will say it’s compulsory to buy MRTA/MLTA because they can earn more.
I have recently driven pass this project site. It appears they are beginning construction from blocks A & B. Block B was most advanced, built up to level 5 as on 12 Jan 2014. Block A was at level 3 or 4, catching up with block B.
I did not manage to see what’s going on for the other blocks (C,D,E). Possibly still in early stages.
To obtain vp all blocks or whatever submitted plan need to be completed.It does not matter which block completed first.
@elle
To draw more $ from bank earlier, developer will build the block which selling at higher price first..
still have any place have new project around bayan baru,bukit jambul,relau & sg ara for apartment n condo?
Is this good or bad? @DK
actually where is exact location? I have bought one unit at block D..and loan has started to release..can anyone give some landmark? I saw a lot of blocks but dun know which one….???
@BKC
u bought the unit but don’t know the exact location….. hmmm, interesting…
hi all,
would like to check something with all of you…i received letter and ask me to pay for the fire insurance… has anyone else received this?
should i pay for this or i can ignore this as the building isn’t completed and why i hav to pay for the fire insurance..
@CTL
Hi, I get the same letter also, where I am under Maybank loan.
The Maybanker who do the loan for me, inform me that I need to pay, and when I go to Maybank for payment, the another loan officer told me that I do not need to, as the unit still CIP, where developer already insured and paid for that.
This Etiqa fire insurance actually double insured, and we can waive for the premium during CIP. (The person who do the loan for you suppose do for you, just usually they lazy and don’t wish to help, and ask you just pay that).
The loan officer is kind enough to help me submit waive form, and after 2 months, I received the letter to waive the premium with reason stated “double insured”.
@Lucky
Hi Lucky, Im taking Maybank loan as well..Yes, the Maybanker also ask me to pay for it. How can they so irresponsible for this, must go Maybank check with the banker and ask for the waive.
Thanks for the info.
@CTL
Well, this is because they need go back to developer to get a set of insurance policy that they insured to prove that the whole building in CIP is already insured in order to waive the fire insurance separately charge to us.
To them, this is extra work and do not bring commision/income to them. So they usually ignore and lie to property owner that this is standard you need to pay.
For someone RM150+ per year, is nothing big deal to pay it, but I don’t like to pay extra for something that I don’t need to.
But advise is, eventhough we suppose not to pay that premium but adviseable to make proper process to waive that, else it will forever due from you this amount.
Time past and after the building complete and han over to you, you may find more difficult to wwaive that.
What is the progress of this site now??
Hi Lucky,
Do you know is the waiver apply to other also?
Hi Lucky,
Do you know is the waiver apply to other bank?
@venus
Yes, it suppose.
Housing loan usually requires the fire insurance to secure the unit for the tenure of loan (20-30 yrs depending how many years you entred).
However, our case our unit is still “in construction” stage, which the developer usually already insured for whole building along the construction period.
Therefore any fire insurance charged to you when the unit still in construction period (not yet hand over to you), considered double insured and suppose able to waive.
Is there any facebook group for one imperial owners?
@Nicholas

From my understanding,owner are not allowed to do any sub sales during the construction.pls correct me if I am wrong
@Bern
thx!
How many lift per tower?
Any one had receive letter from Bank to ask you to pay the Monthly progresive Interest ?
I recieve Affin Bank letter today, and ask me to pay for the Monthly progresive Interest, RM460.xx
Mine is 90% loan, and it is DIBS package, this letter should sent directly to Developer and cc to me……..
ANy one having the same problem?
Just contact Affin Bank and seek clarification,then if confirmed its under DIBS scheme,just ignore the letter!
There’s a big piece of land just being cleared besides One Imperial site. Any idea what’s happening on these pieces of land?
Giant Indah Water station for all new Relau high rise projects.
@Yahooo, you are drunk….
On the right side next to jalan paya terubung is Chinese primary school. Main entrance of OI is facing Imperial residence.
I think you’re referring to behind one imperial. Facebook page saying they will build lavender 3@pororo
wah…. another project… in 2016.. there will be total more than 5000 units rush to the market…
What happened to the plan to build a market just next to OI? i thought towers D & E will be facing the market?
@TK
Going be Damansara Perdana, all condos along the road.
I’m buying another house and my loan was not able to approve as they mentioned that ideal delay the interest payment few months
I have received an letter from ocbc bank asking me to pay for the interest. Same like the Affin Bank case mentioned above. Are we the one need to bare the interest if Ideal keep on delay them?
@ newbie
According to Ideal, the letter served as cc to you only. The one suppose to pay is Ideal.
But play safe, pls refer to you banker to confirm.
Also I not sure Ideal will only pay the DIBS until 80% construction for OI project.
@Ranee
I have confirmed with my banker and he said will be bared by Ideal. Thanks
I’m not sure either. But I see there is a market next to the food court. I think no more market behind tower C D E@Reggie
What is the current site progress?
@Lim
Pretty slow only can see Tower A & B already completed many floor and the rest still on car park stage.
Anyone can provide a latest picture of the construction site?
Anyone has any idea what is the latest selling price psf?
I pass by the site almost everyday. The construction seems to be progressing very fast.
Block A and B have reached very high floors, seems almost the top. Block C D and E are
well into the first few floors.
Do you guys think are they going to be some “groups” going to camp at this project for renovation after VP obtained?
sure got… penang is full of lalazai tat need to act samsing to earn some $$
Is a market going to be built just beside one imperial? Is it good? For owner?
….I went there and saw a sign board “proposal” to built a market and foodcourt same as the location as per location displayed in one of the picture (#6) above.
cannot really make out the wording seems like TAPAK MASJID printed on the same picture (just at the junction behind the newly built PETRONAS station)
Tapak Masjid printed on the same picture?! it means we have to bear the speaker sound every day from the masjid nearby us?
Tapak Masjid printed on the same picture?! it means we have to bear the speaker sound every day from the masjid nearby us?
can you try reading the wordings in the pictures#6 (the one b4 the google mapped view picture).
I can managed to read TAPAK MAS…
if “yes” then…..TGT and OI subsale/rental prices among other consideration would only be good for some people
I own a unit as I believe in the developer. Look at the recent projects launched after this One Imperial. This developer is growing steadily. Somemore it’s location is good near to Airport, 2nd Bridge and Spice.
http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=5.336793&lon=100.269459&z=17&m=b&gz=0
From the link above I noticed that the One Imperial plot is there as the brochure shown.
One thing is that why Imperial Residence and One Imperial plots are overlapping each other? You can also notice from there that the entrance, Block A & B of OI (If I’m not mistaken judging from the images of the map)are so much set back from the boundary of OI. Is there anyone can check it out and comment on this matter?
The plot from wikimapia will be wrong as well. U can go developer office and check it properly.
Saw a notice board to build 2 storey surau in front of Idaman Iris
Which is near which block?
any updates on the progress?Also,Tapak masjid construction is confirmed?facing which Block?
click on the #6 picture at the top of this page…I think it is on the piece of triangular piece of land…(just on the top of the proposed 5 story office block)…Block E is nearest I think.
Called to Ideal. This project might completed by end of year 2015.
end of year 2015? wow.. so fast…
@pororo
It is good news. Early completion can get to stay or sell
Early of this month, I got the call from banker (HLB) chasing for interest payment on my housing loan. I told the banker, my loan was linked to the DIBS project, perhaps they should call the developer instead of me. I called Ideal sale office and were informed that they got the advice payment late, just about to arrange the payment… i think this just an easy excuse they could finds. Any purchasers here got the same experience?
@DO Penang
This depends on the communication between banker and developer, for my case using MBB all went smoothly.
wow end of 2015.. really? OC approval oso end of 2015?
@lovepixie
I guess approval will be earlier 2016.
If I tell you oc will be obtained in August 2015, do you believe that ? This is one of the staff told me that, I hope she is wrong.
Is there any unit left? who can i contact? sorry i’m new here
@TS
Wow….that was fast if can obtained in August 2015.
@MG
MG u can go to the ideal sales office and ask. This project launch 1 year ago, either left 1 or 2 units or maybe u can wait for subsales.
@Iambroke
Do you think that the project can be completed within such a short period ?
@TS
Possibility because I saw the construction running till 10pm everyday
Guys, anyone has any update regarding car park? When they going to draw lot?
Visited OI site yesterday.Blocks A,B,and C have or almost completed and white-washing of #A has started.The rest have reached the midlevel.Could see that the construction of the market located behind the#C,D and E is in full swing.According to the workers there,it would take another 6 months to complete the whole construction,giving the impression that OC can probably obtained in the end of 2015 or erly 2016.
Any idea how to attach photosI snapped yesterday to this page?
@Mengkuanggoat
Hi Mengkuang, didn’t notice any new photos update on the pages.
@Mengkuanggoat
you can upload at Facebook, search for “One Imperial Penang”.
The progress is fast. I heard my friend who stay near by said that they are working 24 hours. But I hope the OC not obtain so soon. :p no money for renovation. (wait for penalty.. haha)
OC obtained for Fiera Vista, Ideal is appointed IBOX as renovation contractor for that project. As I see, most probably OI will also appointed to this contractor.
Ideal will appoint renovation contractor? How come? Did not know that ideal will apply tis system to OI when I purchased. Do we sign up for this in our S&P?
@ae86
I do ask this question to IDEAL during I sign for it, they do not direct answer me this question. In fact, I know they will cause Fiera Vista is confirm appointed to IBOX. I just visit it today. You can search for Fiera Vista forum, you will know about it.
Is it have a units went to sell?
Please pm me.
Leong: you are purchasing or agent? You can contact me..
i am really doubt of the quality from ideal now…the water leaking in my condo now is a big problem…it might not show up when you just test it within warranty periode (1 year) but just right after that and now, it show up in many units…this is due to poor water prooving work and over the time, it slowly leak through.
Can you imagine you just move into a brand new condo but having leaking issue which is most headache part that people mostly worry for old condo above 10 years????
i am staying in one world now and the owner above my unit do not want to fix it just because his house also having same problem and the owner above him do not want to fix it..plaster ceiling also got hole so ugly… pissed off !!!
@hundredplus
Warranty period normally is 18months but the problem is your upper unit owner dont want ppl entry his house u really cant do anything….
Looks like your problem same as my fren current condo
His second room totally cant stay but not fr one world….
I just passed by the construction site. But I saw they started to pain the wall in green !
Looks ugly…
Beauty is different through everybody’s eyes. I just concern about their quality of jobs.
I think the developer still left tonnes of this green paint from their previous projects. hehe…
Lol i just passed by the site.The green colour is awful><
It starts worrying me,look not classy.
Think green bro..Penang mah, bersih, hijau, sihat.
Green color still can acceptable. Have u notice some other completed projects painted with grey & white color only. Is it enforce by the state goverment to standardize all the high rise building colors? Such like Elit height, Golden Triangle, Idaman Lavendar, Zan Pavillion, Garden & Sierra ville, and ……..
is it duck’s shit kind of green?
My opinion on especially Penang new projects on external design,color,material used and workmanship compared to other countries is not up to professional level even though the pricing is among the highest in Malaysia.
If you would used to travel often to oversea you will agree with me. Take for example comparing HK, Taiwan,Singapore or even China.
We are more likely on entry level of standard.
yes,..fully agree,…by I guess you get what you paid for…if one is to compare the price of the condo (with these negative comments) in M’sia; with the price of the countries you had just mentioned. I believes there are “entry level” or below par condos in those countries too.
I wonder why the above new condos all using the same colour– grey & white only for the outside wall ??
The developer keep too much stock of duck shit green so they want to finish it off for their all project. hehe……
The duck shit green paint was left over from Fiera Vista project.
Hope Ideal will finish all this paint on One Imperial so that they won’t use it on Imperial residence as I had bought one unit there. Hahaha….
@Ranee
FV is white. The green was left over by Summerton. Hahaha. Btw, your Imperial Residence is grey, can be left over by Sierra Residence. I think it is going to be even uglier.
Would that mean those staying in One Imperial wearing ‘green hat’?
im sorry, i know that this is off topic, but i cant find a common area for me to post this..
is anyone here familiar with geran? why is there no owner name stated on the geran ?
it shows 5bk on the geran.
how do i prove that im the owner of the property when there’s no name printed on it.
thanks all sifu !
Must drive around Sg. Ara these few days to check out the different colors..
Pity penangites buy house already expensive, some more worry about the color of the property they purchased or worst case worrying wearing ‘green hat’ as Tina mentioned.
Wonder most of the architects need to be re trained especially color application on the outlook of the condo so that one day we can have peace of mind.
The green color only apply to side of blocks. Not so bad la.
Green good for eye sight,hehe,hope don leave any paint for imperial residence
Where got green color?? Nonsense lol
@Bern
green color apply to one side only, u must go to the front block then u can see
Actually apply some dark color can make it look more outstanding instead of all painted with same or light color on the buiding outlook
Did pass by recently, the colour combination looks not bad, more colours compare to surrounding condos. Appear to be more luxury. Just my 2 cents.
Guys, any idea when the car park lot will be drawn?
i take back my word about the paint color.Block A & B almost completed and the paint color combination surprisingly outstanding.LOL
the green highlight look’s really nice combination… 😀
compare to surrounding, it make one imperial more outstanding …
i actually like it very much
i saw BLOCK B roof top got blue light turn on.

Any update for the new primary school ?
What’s the price per sqft now for OI?
very stunning green… like it a lot!
Are you all ready to stay if the OC obtain in August ?
OC obtain in August? where you get the info?
i heard they say EARLIEST also September 2015. Not sure how true though. Those bought the units with aircons, do you guys know when will they install them? Upon request?
the car park already on the light for testing electrical purpose……
@bernking
Not all units come with aircon?
Those who bought during pre launch (tower C D E), they don’t have aircon and only one car park. They have to purchase additional car park. When they bought it’s much cheaper too. 400k+ compared to when they officially launched tower A and B the units become 500k+@Key
@Bern
Don’t be get wrong info from other. Let actual owner from Tower C,D & E to confirm whether got free air-con or not.
yes…but not thru here…..how do you know which one is telling the truth?
@buyer88
Is it a secret to tell got free or no free the air con? What for not to tell the truth?
because you said…”let actual owner from Tower C,D & E to confirm whether got free air con or not”….how do you know who is real owners??? are you? am i? who knows? even if you know, how do you know there are telling the truth?
I thought free air con and 100% DIBS is for every one imperial buyer..
Tower C,D,E come with free aircon. Tower A, B no due to lower psf price. Nett nett Tower A, B still cheaper by 10k.
I bought one unit in Tower B. Come with 4 air cons as well.
For Tower C,D and E, early bird who signed the S&P will offer for 4 air con, and Interest Subsidy until Vacant Possession. Do any one know Developer will Subsidy until how many %?
@buyer88
No meaning to argue on this. I am wrong and you are right we dun know who telling the truth. No point to lie gain nothing here. This is a sharing forum. To be frank, I am one of the owner of Tower E. It is actually come with free air-con with installation. But the free air-con was coming afterward which mean when the time of purchased don’t have this package.
I don’t how much psf get for Tower A & B. But my unit price is RM410psf. As std package interest subsidy will be until 80% completion. The 2H claimed has been received 2 days ago. I am foresee the VP & CCC will come across soon.
I am tower C… Free air con also.. In fact they also provide the free piping installation as I saw all the hoses are protuded outside the unit next to balcony.. Dedicated air con compressor installation area
As I know all OI buyer have free aircon and piping.
Tower C, D & E is cheaper than Tower A & B which lunch during Chinese New Year 2013.
I own a unit in Tower A which facing the pool in RM460psf (High Floor).
May I know what stage they are claiming now? we need to start pay when VP right?
I have 1050 and 1200 units. Direct seller. Interested can contact me.
I do have a 1200 sqft unit, email me if you are interested
@Alicia
how much ur asking price for 1050 unit?
Construction almost done … getting excited now !!
Anyone know when OC obtained ?
