another condo?
i thought that is meant for commercial lots only?

Very competitive pricing..

The construction noises will be terrible for tree residence occupier.

it depends on which side of the Tree. those nearer to Dua side of course more impact. but good thing got free shades from morning sun!

But how tall/floor?

i supposed commercial title?

Got deleted and comments block. Admin. selective and taking side. @winvin

At Sungai Ara & Relau area, now got 4 projects recently just launch that is Iconic Skies, Solaria, Imperial Residence & Skycube Residence. Which one worth to buy for invest or own stay? Please share

During visit to their show unit, saw that almost 70% are fully booked. Could this be another cheapskate marketing ploy??

Overload… Too much condo in this area. Not worth to invest in this area already!!

@ST Khor
Actually i saw 95% booked. So they removed some stickers for sale.

Good in the sense another 2~3 years buyers spoil of choice to choose those ready made condo….it shall be survival of the fittest (in term of loan serviceability).

Let d market force decide then.

let’s focus back to this topic…..

I really WONDER How come the STATE keep approving so many projects especially high density condos in Southwest especially in Sg Ara area DESPITE worsening jam.

DO THEY HAVE A PROPER TRAFFIC DISPERSAL PLAN?

i complain to govt officer, & std answer is everywhere also jam ma…….so if every1 eat shit, do u wan to eat as well?

@SR
Got demand & you don’t allow people to build meh? More development not good meh? make it a satellite township then no need to go far far to town lah. Traffic dispersal plan? The Park-n-Ride concept you buy it not?

if the demand are more towards own stay or LONG TERM Investment of course always welcome to help the RAKYAT!

Not a bad idea theoretically…..satelite, P&R etc…

But It’s about a govt obligations.

Very curious of the $6.3B project…..no mentioned of this side of Island?

http://www.themalaymailonline.com/malaysia/article/penang-approves-rm6.3b-undersea-tunnel-project

just a cut out….
….. The whole project is expected to take 10 years to complete and it consists of a 4.2km bypass from Gurney Drive to Lebuhraya Tun Dr. Lim Chong Eu, a 4.6km bypass between Lebuhraya Tun Dr. Lim Chong Eu and Bandar Baru Air Itam, a 12km paired-road from Jalan Tanjung Bungah to Teluk Bahang and the 6.5km Penang-Butterworth undersea tunnel……

Why, cant we just get 10% of above sum to solve the FTZ and its surrounding nightmares?

Who still have the overall plan for the “Ideal International City” during they launch Sathu Terrace and Fiera Vista? If I remember correctly, that time the whole Tree Residency and Solaria is suppose to be a commercial. Then later changed to residential. Same to The One, which initially got hotel and other commercial buildings, but later on changed to residential also, of course, still have 3 rows of commercial shop, but it is different with initial plan. And now they are promoting Vision Part with 2K units condo plus how many ten thousands sq of commercial space, and I believe this will still subjected to change.

I saw too but those MASTERPLAN too which I guess are non-binding or contractual in nature.
Subject to change without prior notice. Artist illustration? 

Approving authorities need to be more caring and scrutinize projects.

Noted the State , MPPP offices in Northeast G’town area. Most of the lawmakers too on town side. perhaps they don’t feel the pain here. But can easily feel the grumble on the Northeast district….easier to see from KOMTAR la. 

The location for this Solaria initially also hotel & some shoplots during the launch of Tree Residency & Fiera Vista. Cannot trust lah. Buy from more reputable developers then less chance for deviation from MASTER PLAN.

Leftover mostly west facing unit. They intend to increase 20k for units on 21st floor up which is not available now. Guess they tried to clear the bottom floor units before opening balance. Overall looks like 50% booked and not 70%.

what is the package? doesn’t look good if only 50% booked.

How many floors and how many units in total? so close to airport can have high rise more than 20 floors meh?

come with 2 car parks for each unit?

Better see the Fiera Vista build quality first. A lot of change in the original Master plan, where this land was previously said to be for school (you ask those Tree Residency buyers), now became this Solaria pula. No confident liao.

Solaria (Ideal) or Sierra East ( Chong Company)? Anyone can advise? Thanks.

How much psf ? Thanks

Anyone know the details of the project?

@JY
I think will only go to GSD project for south west as i saw their construction is moving fast than others….thats why i still encourage my family to buy Skycube

PR1MA-Home coming to Penang island soon.

It is located at Kampung Sungai Tiram, opposite of Solaria Residences.

How would this affect the property values of Solaria Residences?

All 1430sq ft units are fully booked.

This project not worth to buy.. Lousy project..

Hello…can you share why you said this project is not worth to buy?

how many car parks? commercial / residential title? maintenance fee how much?

2cp residential

@trac
This condo..can be the worst development in bayan lepas. Take note. Think twice before invest..

@Yip

what makes u say so for this condo? come come let’s share your point of view

for benefit of readers (perhaps some genuine buyers).
Pls help to elaborate.
too much of good things we hear from developers……need some opposite direction info too. thx

The Jln Tun Dr Awang from roundabout near airport to the juntion with Jln Tengah will be widening to 4 lanes by Ideal by 2016 phase by phase. Currently, the widening is only until South Homes. Total cost 40M. (if I understand the statement correctly)
Another new road cost 12M already in construction to connect Jln Tun Dr Awang with Jln Sg Tiram (my guess is Jln Sg Tiram 6). Estimated completed by this May. With this, residents of this area will have better access to Jln Sultan Azlan Shah (airport road).
There will also be a new 500m road connecting Jln Tun Dr Awang to the new Heng Ee school, estimated completed by next year.
http://www.guangming.com.my/node/197144?tid=23

Yip can u sharing for us about your opinion?@Yip

Yip , pls share your facts why you said this is worse development?

Ya…i dont mind it the facts come from competitor sales or envy buyers of neigbouring projects or some Kacau kaki…..just list it out.

If you’re buying for own stay and on a budget, this is worth considering. But no harm shopping around for the best price and best location and best layout that suit your individual needs. But if you’re buying for investment, beware. Property price will be stagnant for many years to come, especially for such location.

I am not saying price would collapse (barring unforeseen circumstances), but to flip would be a big challenge as the market would be flushed with vacant units by then.

In general, I also concurred with your statement…..that seems to apply across properties sector and not just this project, right?

Specifically on this project, anything worst, disadvantages, developers etc. try to dig unknown facts that can be share. Thanks.

@W

Bad side?

Developer: Non Branded
Quality: So so.
Location: Near to airport, distance from town center

My question, if can accept to stay in condo, why this location?

Of course, also got a lot of good parts but I think you can get it from the sales easily.

@ Yip,

Please dont remain silence once being asked to explain further. Appreciate if you could share your facts or continue to be a trooper

@Dmoyes

Yip :
@trac
This condo..can be the worst development in bayan lepas. Take note. Think twice before invest..

I have waited for weeks for that info too…..

I have read through the postings, this developers projects are used to be “punching bags”. But in recent 2~3 years they seems to have “cleanse” from the One residence projects reputation.

Anyway, I still wan to know what the the specific (not general again please) bad sides of it.

This is a good lactation with Heng Ee and SIS around.
Furthermore, the Jln Tun Dr Awang will be expanded to 2 lanes each direction to Jalan Tengah.
Easy accessible in future.

@Wf

If you don’t want a general answer, you need to be specific in your question.

Another general input, high density.

Some people like to say well understood general things like traffic jam, economic downturn, VSS in factories that may affect across the sector not specific to Solaria.

Specific like eg. Dua villa itself got car porch sinking, but not happen in Sathu or somewhere else.

then we can have meaningful discussion here.

in other words, i cant tell what i dont know specifically.

I just wan to know if someone know something bad or potentially bad about it.

i wan to know/learn what “i dont know”

@Hemsley

Not sure, how u consider high dense?

Low dense like Meridien condo nearby, seems to be quiet nice but Maintenance fees wise is really meant for high income people.

Frankly i still very scare of new condo projects…..simply too many!

Personally my thought was if buying for own stay is still acceptable as recent year there are too many condos build around this area. I have been searching around and hard get this size of condo at this competitive price. if you are buying a subsale house, it required a lump sum downpayment. Currently they also have Imperial Residences launched which located at Relau at $450psft but the road is so narrow which they claimed will widen in the near future.

I was wondering, is this Residential or COmmericial title?
as i called the sales person, this is a mixed development where the boss was telling them is a Residential title. but anyhow, u need to read through if it is really residential title upon signing SnP in the agreement which they might change! What is this? cant they confirm now as if it is Commerical title, as i understood, you are not allow to withdraw EPF for buying.

anyone can share the unit is under residential title or commercial title?

Brochure labelled as residential. But when confirmed with Ideal sales, said is under application to convert to residential.
Be careful on this …Ideal one world being rejected twice on application on this matter.

Hi Agent
please contact/sms me for more details

buyer here

Solaria residence is consider as high dense condo.. The concept pretty much similar to Elite height.. Look at Elite..now pending so many unit awaiting for sellor flip..vacant.. Over supply in market for condo on this area. Just sharing only, if i really afford to buy condo..i won’t buy in this area..*Factory is all around.. Demand?? Rental??? Developer reputation..so so…

I have to say This is yet again..bad project..

@Sharing Only

I thought location quite good, no?

High dense? U won’t say so if you look at their other project, Imperial Residence.

Anyway no matter what you said, i think this project already almost sold out.

@white curry mee
I can say Bayan baru area is too many condo..and over crowded.. Weekday.. 70% of penang car focus at this area causing air pollution& jam all the way to town.. If i afford..i won’t buy condo in such area.. Maybe those bayan baru or BJ..factory worker engineer may consider as it is “cheap”

@Senior
“If i afford..i won’t buy condo in such area” Means you can afford or can’t ?
Which area in Penang island you can find decent price condo, new launch tag with affordable range ,550k – 750k? If Bayan Baru too many condo, which area/district you would highly recommended? Please be specific where, which project, enlighten anyone of us here

@Senior

Guess you still prefer the over congested Tanjong T. Don’t mind driving 1hr a day to reach home? Lucky you now the state turns some road to 1-way, else you may take 2-hr each day on the road…

I had been more than 10 years in Bayan Baru/Bayan Lepas area. In term traffic i would said still consider fine. Mostly will jam during heavy raining and flooded. This is common if happen in other place. If you like fresh air can consider go BP or Teluk Bahang.

@tulan
I feel idaman Iris is well well much better than solaria residence..

Don’t Tulan :
@tulan
I feel idaman Iris is well well much better than solaria residence..

In term of which point it is well well much better than SR? Can you point out your thought?

@Don’t Tulan

You feel? I feel Solaria residence is well well much better than those over priced condo in Tanjong.T…

If I were developer, I would be happy here…..people try to bad mouth but no “bullets”.

Come on la….this forum for us to share in a safe but responsible way. I don’t believe in perfect properties, we wanted to dig out good and bad as much possible.

This area..condo is seriously over supply..too bad to invest.. Market need take at leaet 5yrs to recover and gain bck the local appreciation.. Long term ok…for own stay.. Short term invest pls stay away from this property..

I heard Solaria Residences is targeting GBI Gold certified, how much extra value we should pay for such building?

I don’t think need to pay any extra premium. Just is the trend and one of the selling point for developer to sell off their units.

Who interested unit solaria let me know. I have good unit here

everywhere is congested now

i have one unit, who interested let me know

what is the package developer give out for the unit?
since no more DIBS any other tricks here to cover the DIBS?

Tanjong T u complain jam
Relau u complain road narrow
Balik pulau complain far
mainland complain not within island
now bayan baru complain too many condo..
Why not you re-claim a land and build your own..
Everywhere got pros and cons…

support @logic

If got $$$ buy land and build bungalow yourself la…
so many complain….

Ideal keep changing their master plan, cannot trust. That’s why still many units left for this project after so many months.

How many units are there for solaria residency anyone?

Eemy , you can call the office to confirm…

Hi Pnangkia, Your unit is still available ??

All, thanks for all inputs. visited the office and site. I think this project quite reasonable surrounding with high end landed houses and few new up coming school. Residential title with 2 cp and maintenance fee ok, about 0.17sen. So have decided to book 2 units. But if you know any hidden -ve items. Do free feel to share, appreciate and thanks in adv.

paid 1 unit 10k today, another one above 24th floor, not allow to book yet.

if the Komtar –> Airport LRT really gets through this time, this area will be in high demand.

Now started to see why so many condo at Southwest area lately. With LRT, those working in Komtar also can stay at Southwest area…haha…

@yoyo

Those working in Komtar don’t stay on Penang island at all. Most of them stay in mainland. The LRT will have no effect on them.

There are a lot people who live in southwest because they work in Bayan Lepas. Why? Because of the rush hour jam. So on the contrary, the LRT will enable people who work in Bayan Lepas to live outside the area, and yet no having to suffer the traffic jam.

@cina
you got your point. However southwest property price still relatively cheap if compare to town area or tanjung bungah area…workers from bayan lepas choose to stay southwest not only the traffic concern, in fact also due to the price.

Those working in town area and stay mainland, I personally think they might opt to move back to island if there are more cheaper property for them to choose such as property at southwest area provided with LRT. Traveling daily on the bridge is not fun, you may ask them….

Afterall, I personnally think the feasibility to build LRT is very very low.

the project almost finished after open for registration, left only medium floor units.
must wait another new project soon.

The building external design very ugly. Example like Fiera vista.

Who are you? What right do you have to decide what is pretty or ugly?

investor :
The building external design very ugly. Example like Fiera vista.

What a no brainer comment?

I booked a unit at RM510 psf. I think it is a great investment for own occupancy!

510psf..which floor? What is d package

@MyFoot
Just express my view, and many others feel the building design and colour is ugly. just look at the green colour on the Fiera Vista units and balcony rail. No match to GSD design at all.

I thought Fiera Vista color looks ok… Nice….

@SolariaBuyer
Do you mind to share what you decided to buy this unit instead of others ? any thing that attract you ?

Commercial or residential title. If commercial, buyer need to pay gst?

i went to their sales office yesterday, per d sales guy, is residential but not much units left and i still yet decide to go with it or not

Jj :
I thought Fiera Vista color looks ok… Nice….

Me too! Some people are clueless and classless yet they try to show off. What a pity!

@Reng
Hello Ren, how much is the purchase price for your unit ? type ?

Mid floor, type c1.

Mid floor, type c1. 608k

anyone get the loan approve? what is the package and which banks ?

Any unit left for this condo? What is the current price for it now?

Another high rise& high density condo.. Worst development in bayan lepas..

But in my country actually this project is super high class and I cannot afford it. So all I can do is be stupid and sarcastic to make myself feel good…

You are stupid, no doubt about it.

@TuaKi
Yes. No doubt.. 1 of the worst high rise in this area…after Elite& 1 Sky..

Hi…there…im looking for 1 unit 1100 sqf at solaria…anyone letting go?

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 !!!

hi hundredplus, is the water proofing a common issue for most of the units or just isolated case? if its a common issue then it is a big concern and a big question mark on their quality. i might need to reconsider buying solaria

Hi @pg, quite some of the units affected, i think just this year after the new management took overe got around 20plus to 30unit complain about it, i dunno how many more before the warranty periode. as i also bought subsale and just about to stay in.. and the owner above me just have tenant stay in around less than 1 year ago.
it is very clear is due to the poor workman ship of developer but just with the excuse it is over the warranty periode, they will not take any responsiblity to fix it. unbelievable to have leaking problem show up so soon!

i think u get should get better developer for better quality like IJM, SP Setia, Ecoworld and etc as buy house is a long term thing……and leaking is most headache part of it…

so, when quality developer selling at 700++ psf….pls don everyday complain very expensive and try to compare those tier 1 developer with tie 2/3 developers..then after that only complain this complain that….This is the difference between branded and normal brand

Doubt the guy is the owner of One World, unless he/ she already sold it. With a unit on hand, and cannot solve the problem, one way out is to sell the unit. But he/ she is now announcing to the world not to buy his/ her unit. Haha….

hi guys.i am one of the buyers of solaria.paid the booking fee of RM10,000.00 so long ago until the cheque also lapsed d. got my loan approved and sign offer letter 4 months ago already but no news from developer / lawyers to sign snp and loan documents. i keep calling lawyers and sales agent also but they say not sure when. just this week got called by lawyer say can sign already but i found out the developer havent got the APDL (not sure if correct but this is the permit and licence i was told). how can they ask us to sign when they havent get the APDL? and lawyer say wont date or stamp until they get apdl. and lawyer say they will hold your 10% first and wont release to developer. anyone here havent sign? my friend told me it is wrong for them to ask us to sign the snp now. i read from this website for another property by ideal the same thing happened and the comments was DONT SIGN. if delay again then we purchasers are losing out. please advise. dunno if should take this risk. thank you very much in advance!

pat, same case here. booked one unit since last cny. applied for loan from couple of banks recently and the offer letters are ready but i m not in a hurry to sign since dev is not showing any urgency to get d spa and loan agreement signed although they are offering freebies to get buyers to sign them. i might just wait and see for a week or two to get confirmation that everything is in order.
logic, regardless of you paying for a rm500 or rm700 sqft unit, water proofing is the basic requirement for bathrooms. If a dev can’t even do that correctly, as a consumer/customer, we have the right to complain.

@pg
hi pg. thank you very much for your reply. you are lucky coz you have not signed any offer letters. i was told that the snp is scheduled for nov last year so i thought i apply for loan first and i was worried about the new rate that will take effect this year. i already signed the offer letter in oct so now i am quite worried about my installment and time starts running from date of letter of offer. i am not sure how to deal with the bank now if the developer is going to delay any further. anyone any ideas? yup they are giving free air-conds i heard but i decided to forgo anyway. they cant date or stamped the agreements and they just going to leave the agreements there so i dun see a reason why we cannot wait right?but i duno if the developer has at least informed the banks on their panel about this issue. sigh! anyone please share if you have already signed offer letters from any banks since few months ago but have not signed the spa or loan docs. thanks!

@Pat
Y not u direct go to their office and find out……
Or call your lawyer if have …….
Last time iI keep call the sales person and they will know what is the reason stuck so long……
Mostl the reason is the sales not hit so that’s why they keep delay due to loan not approve…..

When is the right time for us to sign the SPA?
I have my Loan offer ready but not dare to sign even with the freebies offered.
if any experienced buyer here can advise?

@williamyl
there is no use. i called the lawyer since last year they say duno why the delay. the sales person just say something with the changes in some plans or something so still waiting for the authorities to approve. so in the end is either u choose to trust them or you don’t.

@ck
i am not too sure also…i also didnt sign even with the freebies offered. apparently according to the sales people many ppl signed already to secure the freebies and the unit. but i am just worried about my loan now. however, i think you need to check becoz offer letter must be signed within 2 weeks if not it will lapsed. then they gotta reissue. the new rate now i think not as good as that was offered to me last year. i calculated i need to pay more. my problem is that i have already signed offer letter last year but the loan docs not yet. so i wanna know if anyone here with the same problem / situation. ck, did you check with the developer or lawyer or whoever? they didnt call u?

Hi Pat,I called and checked with Ideal sales person and been told that the permit still pending is referring to advertisement permit and not related to the project plan.
As told,the construction work will be started very soon in next 2 weeks but I’m not sure how true about this advice.

if i am not mistaken, piling started at least 2 weeks ago.
saw truck sent pilar there for few times.

hi pat, not sure which bank you have engaged but the bankers i dealt with said that by signing the lo, they will help to lock down the rates using blr. not sure if the banks allow to maintain their offer after your lo has expired. Might want to check with them. if my banker confirmed that there is no penalty if i decided not to proceed with the purchase after signing the lo, i might do so to lock down d blr.

i am hearing contradicting info from different parties. Some said pending license approval to start work while others mentioned construction work has commenced.

@ck
as far as i know, advertisement permit has no relation to approval to start construction work or signing of spa. The reason i am saying this is because the dev of the previous condo i purchased did not apply for advertisement permit but spa was signed n work commenced. advertisement permit is to allow dev to openly advertise their project to the public, i.e via newspaper, banners etc. i m too hoping that spa is ready to be signed soon but i’ve waited for it since last April

@pg
hi pg, yes that’s what i heard. they are currently pending housing developer’s license. did some research of my own. you have to have the housing developer’s license before u apply for advertisement permit. and this license is granted per project basis. as commented earlier on by others, this is very common with this developer changing plans and so on. thanks for your advice pg! i will try to talk to the banker. i signed LO since oct but the bank until now didnt call. the last i called them was december but he said is okay. this is giving me so much headache. i rushed to apply for the loan as i heard many rejected. and the dev told me in july/aug that spa will be due in oct/nov. if i have read this earlier, i wouldnt have applied for loan that fast. SIGH. anyone already let go of their units? even the booking fee has expired so i duno is the developer going to sell your booked units to others?

Hi Pat,which bank you go for?

@ck
hi ck, it is ocbc taking joint loan with another family member. what about you? very busy currently no time to talk to the bank yet. but i am quite surprised no one from the bank even call? because signed LO so long ago but loan docs not completed. i heard some banks have 6 months period limit. my offer letter states must complete loan docs 2 weeks from date of LO. probably next week will go talk to the bank. one thing I don’t understand is that when call bank they ask contact the lawyers but lawyers ask to talk to YOUR banker. i know lawyers acting for developer and say everything free including the SPA to loan documents but always remember all been included in the sale price just that you are not required to put so much money upfront, point is still our hard earned money. some people just make it sound like we got the best deal in town. relatively cheaper property in penang really doesnt mean is FREE so make sure you stand for your rights. 😉

hi Pat,I go with Affin Bank and already sign the LO ,SPA arrange to be signed very soon.
According to the Banker,developer still pending for APDL permit but seem it’s normal for the every project,I not sure how true is it.Just called and confirmed with Ideal,APDL estimated to be obtained for the next 2 weeks,just wait and see.

@Pat do you need to reapply for the bank loan? the base lending rate is no longer applicable. lucky for me, the banker that i deal with are sharing the updates now and then. i m still considering whether to take up or release d unit.

hi pg, i don’t think so because although loan documents not executed, i have signed the LO so should be based on previous offer. even in the newspaper it is said that those who have submitted application prior to the new system will also still be entitled to the previous system if offer already given. and my bank officer also didnt tell me anything. but i will speak to the bank this friday. i am also still considering to take up or release the unit. pg u signed LO already?

and pg & ck, just received sms today to say that they have obtained their APDL and will bank in the cheques for 10% already by this week. i have not paid anyway i dont care so they gotta wait till i go back and sign then only i pay. it is their delay to begin with. btw you guys happen to know if this property is residential or commercial? advertised as residential title but as commented here earlier on the sales people have been telling conflicting stories, some said the sales person said residential but some said in the midst of converting to residential title. i was told by the sales person that it is residential and lawyer say residential which is why they follow housing development act but i was told that it can still be commercial title. any ways to really confirm it is residential? i think just recently an older property by ideal in penang the residents were facing so much problems due to it being commercial title. the assessment amount to be paid is CRAZY.

Hi Pat,you are right,for those submitted their loan application before the new system,will continue with old system based on BLR.
As confirmed with both developer and laywer,Solaria is residential title
.

@Pat
so far hav not banked in my cheque yet and there is no rush from ideal to sign spa. Hopefully it is not a sign of another delay. Facebook posting stated got promo n discount for solaria besides the free air cons. Asked one of the sales person and was told there are still alot of units available. Thought the shown most units are taken up. By the way has anyone signed the spa? confirmed it is residential title?

@pg
I am not sure about your case but so far all of my friends including myself..Our cheque alreay clear on 17 February 2015. hope it help

@pg
hi pg, yup me too. this is for the previous RM10k booking fee as well right? I have not banked in the 10% as well because I have not signed..I am just quite worried about my bank loan now coz is been dragged for so long. You asked the sales person and they say a lot of units left? Not too long ago i asked my relative in penang to ask they say mostly taken up? I have dealt with them directly only a few times coz i work outstation. that’s what they say in the sms they sent on the airconds. did u get the sms? that they will banked in cheque by 17th Feb and asked us to have sufficient money in account. and that time say no more free air conds if we don’t sign by before mid of january but now once again offering air conds again as stated in the sms. i don’t know..u still intend to buy or not pg?

hi ce18, you and your friends all bought a unit there? just for your information, whether the cheque clear or not is not an issue which we are discussing here but whether there will be a further delay to the whole process. if anything, i think this will not benefit those who have already taken a loan earlier. Like pg said, if it is a sign of delay even you sign the SPA and loan docs they will not date or stamp the documents yet i guess.

@Pat
this is what my relative told me about the available units as i too based outstation. yup sms received stating booking fee will be banked in 17 feb n given air con for free if sign spa n bank loan within a month. am still undecided to be honest as my intention of buying it is not to flip.

hi ce18, have u n frens signed spa? wat does it says about the title of solaria? residential?

@pg
Hi Pat..confirmed with the lawyer the stamping date follow the cheque clearance date so If they delay the clock is coun ted. ..

Hi Pg , yes All of us have signed the S&P and loan agreement

@pg
Pg..title is residential based on schedule H

@pg
today lawyer called to sign so i guess maybe developer is reading this when you say there is no rush from them to sign..haha….ya like yourself i also not buying to flip. so the delay and all that plus duno whether residential title for sure is really worrying me…..

hi ce18 thanks a lot for your info. may i know when did u signed your letter offer and which bank if you don’t mind saying? thanks! so u said your cheque has been cleared so the lawyers should be returning u the stamped S & P and loan agreement soon is it? since cleared on 17th then i think they should be able to return u within these 2 weeks given the previous week is cny holidays. please do let us know if you have got the stamped agreements back then at least we know they are not delaying. the reason is because the construction period is 36 mths from the date of your SPA i think if not mistaken? i think many developers will ask u to sign and pay but they will date the agreements much later because not all units are sold yet. this is what i get from reading the other comments by others. the later they date the more beneficial to them i think but our loan repayment start tickling d.

@Pat
I decided not to proceed since they cant be flexible and allow for extension for spa signing for those outstation. will continue to look for other projects. all the best!

@pg

oh what did they tell you? developer or lawyer? when is the last day you can sign? so far didnt give any deadline yet i thought? but i dunno for sure……..havent spoken to them

@Pat
Hi Pat, i talked to the legal assistant few days back and they have sent in the S&P for stamping and S&P is dated 17 Feb 2015. But for loan agreement , still pending signing return from the bankers.. but what important to is the S&P.. hope it help

@Pat
From the dev. was told by 20th is the deadline but i will only be back to pg a week later as i’ve bought my flight ticket. told them i am unable to arrange a trip back earlier as i am rushing to complete new house renovation and moving in but they can’t accomodate my request. too bad because i’ve waited for the spa signing more than a year and they cant even wait for a week more.

@pg
hi pg, wow that’s quite bad..you are right just for a week more also cannot?doesn’t make any sense not like 1 year or something. in any event i thought they don’t want ppl to leave? they didnt try to ask u to consider again? u spoke to the developer right?

hi ce18 thanks for your info…yeah the s&p is important but my loan has been hanging for quite some time dats y..and the mrta i took with the bank also already sent me a few times reminder to pay the premium…..

@Pat
I dont think they dont give you a week.. maybe you talk to their sales mgr n get it done…as far as i know, if you want to get the free air-con then S&P need to sign within 30days from the loan approved date… i know for those loan was approved long time, you need to resubmit your documents to get the loan ‘re-approve’..

@ce18 </a
This was not the case for me I plan to get the banker to resend me the lo as the initial offer has lapsed and request dev for extension until end of this month to sign spa but they insisted to get the free air cond, spa has to be signed by 20th Mar and there is no compromising from the dev. Maybe i m not a big fish for them hence different treatment.

Hi Pat. Yup.. directly from the dev. Maybe they hav buyers on waiting list to take over. Anyway hopefully it will be your gain and my lost. Cheers

@pg
Talk To Ms Nancy ….Highlight to her see what she can help u

@pg
hi pg, i signed my LO already just not the loan documents and SPA because SPA dat time cannot sign also so of course loan docs cannot..u cancel the unit d but they prepared the documents already like SPA they cannot charge us right for that? i think i wont go ahead also like u pg becoz i dont wanna take the risk so maybe be my lost also. but if your problem is just by 20th March are u sure u speak to the right person? i dont think at this point in time they can simply just let go of buyers. market condition aint that good la.

@ce18
the bank didnt say anything also so i am not sure.30 days from loan approved date? then too bad that was so so long ago coz they have delayed this since forever and dat time they themselves say cannot sign SPA which was last year.then suddenly i think maybe becos many ppl wanna leave then they suddenly say can sign SPA and give airconds….oh well, i think i am not going to proceed as well. thanks for your info anyway! 😉

Today i visit the site, i realise that the TNB substation (pencawang utama) is over there, im not sure what is the function for this station. will this station cause any health harzard??

Yes, it will affect the health of those
living near to it.

Any more high floor units????

Hi, any buyers here? i am considered to buy the condo but seem there are many bad comments here. May i know is this project ok?

These 2 Haha and david must be gone wrong. Where 2 get such price for a new condo in pg?
New condo can easily hit 600k

yalol…that’s why I didn’t buy any for pass 2 years….let other to become crab….I just sit aside watching 大死代 see can rescue some of the ppl who jump out from the bridge by buying thier bad debt.

@david
I think it will be easily hit RM700k above upon completion.. Very nice condo at bayan lepas.

@david
he must be some loser elsewhere complaining this n that till at the end regret.
I regret that i did not buy any property for the past 5 years as I thought the price will bubble and i was wrong… no hard feelings. Just 2 cents of opinions

PG property market already stagnant for ~2 yrs. especially those >500k properties.
now is the game of holding power!

Ok..Ok…I’m loser which holding 2 shop lots, 1 office and 1 condo which bought few years ago…but definately not last 2 weeks….what to do, no money ma. So wait for those flog jumping across the street lol….Lelong….Lelong

Stupid david

@David.

I’m holding 100 unit of bungalow, 100 unit of condos..
i waiting to buy your holding as part of my collection when you jump..lol
talk is cheap, sometime it makes u sounds stpd

Paid 10K booking fees a week ago.

Zept,what is the selling price now ?

Got 11th floor facing south (swimming pool) for 582K+.

I am still very concern about how to ensure it is residence title, and not to fall into commercial title trap… which means expensive utilities, city council, land tax?, maintenance fees +GST…

Other than concern above, what is reason you buy this project?
CAn share your thought to me?

The traffic is OK, at least no bottle neck -> multiple exits.

Also, there is no high-rise building in my house direction (only the Fiera Vista to the left). For big area in front is the view of just landed houses.

Close to airport, possible future development of LRT station in “walking distance”.

@Zept
Hi Zept,
any rebate for this project??
i heard there is some units available, im interested in this project as well but reading from the forum mentioned that there will be a TNB power plant, how true is that.

@kop
Yes, there is a TNB station at one corner.

@kop
No rebate but what I heard its same package like Ideal offers for their new projects: free SPA & loan agreement, free 4x Aircond if sign SPA within 30 days booking.

Those who buy this project with 500psf will cry. All the condo lauching below RM500psf at that area. Nobody want now. Good luck.

Potential Airport LRT station nearby if PTMP materialised.

Fyi, get to know All project from Ideal Property, upon completion there will be gangster contractor force you to take up their renovation service or else need to pay so-call “sampah fee”. They charge ridiculous price. Many owner of Ideal Property is facing this issue, and the developer didn’t help to solve this issue, worst still allowing them to set up a booth in the building. So think twice before make the choice to buy their project.

@Solaria is Dead
Such as?

@Zept
Use your eye to seela. Common sense. All bayan lepas condo very cheap only.. Solaria sure suffer the fate similiar to Elite Height.. How much want sell? RM700k?? Long wait.. RM550k is reasonable price.. Developer already suck all your blood.. Happy investment.. Think twice..guys..

What is the status of this project now?????

Hi Solaria residences owner does anyone know why they built the external layout not according the plan?

@suede
Hi Suede,

I pass by there few times this week and I have the same feeling too

Hi WR

Previously I bought a unit that facing airport runway & morning sun.
But if they change the external layout mine unit might facing evening sun that
previously when I bought it that I don’t want evening sun.
I will check with ideal first regarding this.

The contractor see the drawing up-side-down and they built it wrong direction

hahahaha, the sun rise from west and set on east now for this buyers

Can’t find such group in fb…

what is the latest progress? just sign up for the FB site. pls accept. thanks

Same trend like Elite Height or perhaps even worse.. This is one of the worst project by ideal as of now.. Buyer..good luck..

How to define “One of the worst project”? Actually the construction progress also super duper slow. 5 years also cannot finish.

i just bought a unit of FV – 1400spf (9th floor) @ RM610K with 2 side by side cp. It’s around RM435/spf. Still wondering why someone want to choose SS – 1150spf @ RM636K / TGT2 – 1165sqf @ RM630K??? Although i have to pay S&P and legal fee RM24K, but add up also worth than SS and TGT2. If you still looking for a unit, why not consider FV.

@Miss Tan
Hi Miss Tan which Tower unit u bought?

Interest in this Solaria condo – good to buy ? any unit for sale ?

Interested. any unit available?

@mat rempit, come comment here too….dun be shy…

for this kind of mix development. Safe is the one need consider? Since it’s mix development, many people can walk in and out from the commercial shop lot.

any owner here who intend to let go their unit? kindly email greateight. pg@gmail. com… thanks

Any owner groups here. Anyone forming owner whatsapp group? Let me know. I would like to join – i am owner. Just got my keys.
So far so good.

super congested area. wassnt this place suppose to be an open field?

also wonder how long will starbucks survive…..

Hi i am also owner but i have not get the keys. can help include me in the watsap group ?

This project is way over price, Tnb station not clearly define and horrible quality. Super dead project.

We just receive VP and I regret buy this highly price unit. At over 500/sqft, I wonder how much will it go up! So much condo being built everywhere that is cheaper. TNB sun station so near the condo make residence uneasy. Gangster contractor will come in too. Dann. Should have keep money in bank!!

Owner of Solaria Residences, better you guy GANG up kick out this Positif Upaya maintenance office, their boss CS Tan and Julie, they are Tai Chi Master and they are direct from IDEAL not a 3rd party, they will not help you to feedback all defect (soon you will know is not their role), be prepare all black and white paper with dealing with this Maintenance Office and IDEAL, no one will stand for you if you guy still in “New house mode” this is your property of life time.. for them you are just a white rat… soon you will know the material use at your condo are low cost material prepare ask the supplier…. good luck…
Additional, this Gangster, is sign contract with “IDEAL and Positif Upaya”.. good luck

Hello, @Solaria owner, may I check if you are experiencing defect issue, and don’t get management attention? I believe bring to developer can accelerate the process? Since they still have units haven’t sold off, and selling at sky high pricing?
If you don’t mind, can share what’s the defect you encountering?
I am considering whether worth buying this property.

@VT
Ideal after sale is Tai Master… all our defect they will said is approve by Gov and not going to put extra cost in to have major repair or upgrade…so tai chi to Gov, Gov tai chi back to them and end up no news… this is how they work….gv me 2nd chance i will not going to buy any Ideal Property again their service is degrade vs last time…
Solaria owner, pls pls remind all our owner, POSITIF UPAYA is so call hire by us… cuase we pay for the maintenance fee NOT IDEAL… WHY THEY are not listen to us as we are the PAY MASTER…
