980sf …

Price range? Another hot cake?

yes Super hot hot cake

woah 197 vs 273…. that super low…. going to be high end i believe

High end pricing like Tamarind E&O, quality n location comparable?

Sg Nibong will be the most desired place because it is location at very prime area, away from Relau, Sg Ara & Bukit Jambul foreign worker spot.

Montage will be kust located door front with Sg Nibong LRT Station, whereas Tamarind still far away from future Monorail station (even latest then this LRT station)

@Sam

yaya, sungai nibong is chinese area more landed house , is centre part between jeletong expressway & bayan lepas area

Open for registration or booking?

Is the developer has any past completed projects. I can’t find any info about the developer on Internet.

@brian

Already amended from 197 units to 282 units

Look like new project The Sun at Sg Nibong cheaper than phase 1 Novus….i mean in term of psf.
Phase 2 cant fight with The Sun if psf higher than The Sun?

The Sun 1313sf sale 698K which is 531psf.
Montage residence price shouldn’t higher than The Sun else not attractive due to The Sun location better.
Just personal thinking.

Heard that their first project ‘novus’ has SnP signed since June, but the site has no progress so far… Not sure will the something happen to Montage…

Delay is ok. Just pay the late delivery penalty will do. But dont trade off in finishing.

No one can assure for the quality,regardless of if it is on-time/delay. Penalty? Developer can always request for project extension from the government without giving you back a single cent. Just need to make sure buyer take extra cautious when choosing a property. If they can’t handle first project well,it is a valid doubt for their 2nd or 3rd project…

700k before rebate and promotion. 980 sqf. The price is quite standard at this area.

Hi, anyone else already book for this project?

@Jess
Can share any attractive package offer by pearl ocean?
Starting price?
How many units booked during soft launch?

went to the launching..not much ppl there..

@sss
You booked unit as well?
Mind to share price and package offered?

sss :
went to the launching..not much ppl there..

how is it? u booked already?

Went to see the showhouse. The house layout is quite unique. I like the front door is far away from the next house’s front door. Price psf is higher than novus and the sun though.

Montage come with semi-furnished package.

Just visited Pearl Ocean’s showhouse.
The house layout of Montage is modern and comfortable.

Just made a booking yesrerday at Bay Avenue. Net price is RM638K for 980sqft after all rebate.

@eric

Which floor?

@BY
11 floor

@eric

I think reasonable price for 11th floor.

Just sign up one unit on top floor. Key attraction is location near Future LRT station & good layout for dual key concept. Hope this goin to be a good property for long term investment or own stay.

@Optimist

I revisited the floor plan again, it looks like non dual key. Are they build dual key?

@BY
Should be mentioned as dualkey-able. Need to partition up near dining hall & open an entrance at bedroom 3. You can find out more from their marketing agent

@Optimist

Oic. After renovation, then yes.

How many % been sold now?

@Penang Lang
As of yesterday, about 30% to 40% sold out. Still many units left.
Bear in mind, only 5k banker cheque submitted. No loan can apply yet as APDL permit only obtain probably on May or June claimed by the agents. Anyway, you can withdraw any time by taking back the banker cheque without any obligation. So i guess there will be more to decline afterwards

Hi i’m considering this project, any cons on this project ?

Hows the sales going ? guess the price is high at 7xx K, future this area will be congested with condos

This project good for its location. Should buy

cimoni :
future this area will be congested with condos

Not much condo can be built due to limited space if your going to compare with relau…one eye can see don know how many condo due to large land space…

@brian
Yes I agreed on the relau/sg ara development which is overly congested with condo. But for this land in Sg nibong, I see there is few future development, just to quote few of them : SP setia sky hill, gembira development, red blue development and even budget hotel under sepakat mewah. With all this kind development, is the road access able to cope ? Furthermore the airplane sound will be another concern… just my 2cent

More floors on Novus so the view on the 8 units side (facing north east) will be blocked by Novus?

@Optimist

What’s the net price for top floor?

Please share more info about this project.
stannie22@gmail.com
Is the show room ready? May I know where is it?

@Annie

The showroom is ready. You may visit at their gallery.

I am quite interested the project, may I ask some questions from you all opinions

1. The access to the condo is flood area? I know the road in front the Alora Hotel (near Kayu nasi kandar) always flood during heavy rain. but not sure this area
2. The price and offer is reasonable? Anyone paid booking ald? What make you chose the project?

I prefer the location instead of Sg Ara, Relau and Bayan Lepas. Close to Penang Bridge, Queensbay, USM. Still not too crowd compared with the other locations mentioned above.

@NB862

May I know where is the gallery?

@ckll
2. Considering those in sg dua area are selling at almost the same price with only 100 to 200 sqft more I think the price is reasonable. With the future development opposite Bukit Jambul is going to make the area even more strategic. Also if if if if if the LRT (www.tankuku.com) is a go then you’re almost at the middle of the whole LRT route (10 stations to komtar and 9 stations to teluk Kumbar)
I choose this project because of the location and the layout is modern which none of the room wall touches each other.

thanks your reply @notagent
yes the layout is good, I am also ok without balcony, drawback is just no store room

Interested but currently how many % sold? Anyone know? Not as hot as novus

Which floor is the transfer pump station located at? What are your opinion of not having balcony? Mind to share? Thank you.

Dear all,

Montage residence has upgraded into 1015sqft currently. Also included Kitchen Cabinet ready and together with 4 Inverter Air-condition. A very well designed and unique layout too with all the bedroom size is good. You may also email me at >> allen_latte@hotmail.com for more details. Cheers

@Khw
If I remember correctly 16 but with the floor number change now should be 19?
I dont remember the last time I use the balcony in my condo so I think I prefer more indoor space than a small balcony that I cant do much things there

Hi all,

I am quite interested on this project but still in dilemma as heard that this developer is new and not so well established. So a bit concern about their projects. Any comment from others?

@YJ

I’m one of the early bird. The way I rationalize this is the company is owned by ex RID shareholder and I saw RID projects, not the best but definitely far from bad so quality side should be fine. Project competing side, their first project Novus is fully sold (expected completion at 2021) which means they shouldn’t have financial problem going into this project.

@Previous

Thanks for your explicit explanation.

@YJ
YJ are you one of the staff of EcoHorizon?
I really like the projects in Batu Kawan, marvelously built and done. Will drop by to book a unit.

@Ah Heng

Sorry, I’m not working with any property company.

@Ah Heng

What is the pro of Batu Kawan’s project as compared to Penang island? Can share your view if you don’t mind?

Got a letter from developer to ask me to start applying loan. Anyone receiving that also?

hi Montage buyers! I have created a group chat and facebook page for all info and updates about Montage. interested to join in let me know. thanks!

Mayknow APDL of the project has approve? I like the project but need to think twice because buying property and long term debt are big thing for me. They going to increase the price after APDL?

@Ck
What is the name of group chat

@ckll
When I booked early this year the developer said around June July. After they increase the unit size I think it was supposed to delay by a month or two so I would guess around August to Oct.

@Ck
Please share how to join the group.

@APDL
thanks

@Buyer

hi.. facebook page is Montage Residence Penang, Sg. Nibong. Group chat is in WeChat, group name is Montage Residence Sg Nibong, Pg

@APDL
hi.. facebook page is Montage Residence Penang, Sg. Nibong. Group chat is in WeChat, group name is Montage Residence Sg Nibong, Pg

for the group chat and facebook, would request a copy of booking form to confirm your status as the buyer of Montage in order to join the group.. thanks ya. feel free to give any suggestion for better communication as buyers of Montage

@cK
hi CK, why i Can’t get the Montage Residence Penang in FB? May know now ald start to apply loan d right

@cK
Can’t find both on Facebook or wechat. Did you make it searchable?

@APDL
yes. if still cannot find kindly email your wechat ID and fb username to montageresidence@gmail.com. Will add you from there

i am buyer of novus, can i join the group?

@Fmonki
Care to share current status with Novus project?

may know most of Montage buyers SnP signed？ One good thing is the car parks’s lot have been assigned. Higher floor with higher price get better car park lot (lower floor), this is quite fair for who pay more money for better car part lot.

@ckll
You signed? They told me after getting loan can proceed to sign.

@MontageBuyer
hi no yet..still considering..

hi anyone, buyers know the current update? ADPL approved? I saw some construction road beside the shell petrol station, is the construction work start?

@ckII

@ckll,

Montage APDL already approved last month, clearing site now,

Regards,
SK CH’NG

@ckll
No APDL. Now developer ask buyer to presign spa. Sign before August got bonus. Montage land got board surround but no do anything

Beside shell the construction board say tetuan Tetap Gembira. Montage is Prisma Bumiraya

Thanks SK CHNG and Buyer,
Buyer, may know what kind of bonus sign before August?

I don’t know what developer think at the current cold market situation, the developer ask buyers sign SPA but the site still is in”jungle” condition and no any work start. Just wonder how they give confidence to potential buyers..

3 residences by IJM, the construction work has been ald started as we can see, but still can’t make booking..but when the time they launching, sure will give buyers more confidence about their project..

Better you check with them on the bonus
Presign because no APDL
They won’t do anything if no APDL

how to find montage group in facebook?

Still have any corner unit? North east view (sungai nibong view) better or south west view (bukit jambul view) better? Personally more prefer north east view but worry the empty land beside Novus will have another high rise building.

@Huat
There will be a phase 2 in Novus so north east view sure will be partly blocked. South west view will have full evening sun but definitely won’t be block as no more space for development.

@View
Do you have any info regarding Novus phase 2? When will it launch?
I heard that those facing evening sun will have tinted window, not sure is that true.

@View
I do a quick research, Novus phase 2 should be Montage. Or u mean will have another phase after Novus and Montage?

@Huat
Montage South west unit 1 to unit 3a developer give free window tint.

Montage is different project under same developer. Not really Novus phase 2. If you look up for Novus project development plan, the developer applied for 2 buildings. Second phase is going to be super low density luxury condo (less than 100 units in 44 floors)

@Huat
The second phase will be on the same land parcel as Novus

Morning sun thats more people prefer. Any comment

@View
Thanks for the info.

@Mr A
Yup, more prefer morning sun. But south west view will be better.

@Mr A @Huat
That’s the dilemma with Montage. Good view and evening sun or OK view and morning sun.

Anybody know, the developer is from where?

Just visit the showroom, overall quite satisfy with the layout. Plan to buy for own stay.

@View
I think facing north east is better although view not so nice compare to south west because south west facing main road, worry will more noisy and dusty.

@Huat
Yes I also pick the northeast facing. Recently I go to the site even at the busiest time 8am and 6pm the place is still quiet. Maybe due to Krystal Point in front.

The overall design is not elegant compared with the selling price.
It is more like a normal apartment design where affordable housing projects design is better than this.
And the developer is not well known, definitely a showstopper

@J’Chuan
Mine to share where is lacking on the design? I am a potential buyer.

@Elegance
Hi, what i mean is referring to their building design in overall. The public area such as the main entrance, hammock garden are really lack of sense of art. With the launching price, i am hoping a much grand and iconic design. Honestly, any 500k project with higher sqf per unit in Sungai Ara is better than this project. The developer is not even well known, only 1 project history.
Only the location of this project is good, tats all.

I’m one of the buyer. The building design indeed is not so elegant as compare to those in sg ara. The reason i bought is i take into consideration on location, density and layout. To me the design still acceptable. Those sg ara majority are high density and come with multiple facilities, but can these facilities sustain for couple of years still unknown. Just my point of view.

@J’Chuan
This developer is ex RID (Meridien and Orchard ville) that come out to open new company. If not I won’t even consider it cause they have 0 (not 1) completed project. Hard decision. Best thing about it is the location.

@Buyer
yes indeed, the location is the only main attraction.
For the facilities wise, if the announced monthly maintenance fee is similar to the sungai ara projects, then this is worse, as it basically has no special facility other thn a pool but have to pay the same.
We shall wait and see.

Just a general question. Is there a problem if maintenance fee is high with little facilities? I mean at worse is JMB has a lot of money right? The money still belongs to the community. In addition, can JMB reduce the fees in the future?

I pick it mainly for the location. With this condo I’ll be stuck only at roundabout but those Sg Ara/Relau will stuck all the way from condo to roundabout.

Yes. I’m also the buyer. Location and layout attracted me. I would prefer layout with no balcony. Agreed to Buyer2 point of view. SPA also collected. Welcome to join us.

with high mantainance fee, yes it will go into your sinking fund, but higher fee with lesser to maintain, it is easy for alot hanky-panky things to come, like my previous apartment.
anyway, do check on the developer financial status, before ur move.
setia skyhill is launching soon beside the crystal point, i am more confident on that, just not sure the launching price yet.

@J’Chuan
Setia skyhill “is launching soon” since 2012 or 2014 but until now nothing except the signboard. They are waiting for other developer to push up the price at Sungai Nibong before they launch. I think they will not go below 1m starting price.

Hi guys, is this developer trustworthy? I couldnt get much information about this developer online…

Is the developer planning to reduce the price as SST started and Penang announce 300k above house 10% discount?

Buyer here. Anyone checked with the developer if they’re going to reduce the price since no SST?

@Discount
Yalor, will they reduce price or not since now is SST.
I am personally interested in this project, but I will wait for the 10% price reduction to be announced first.

@Simon Wong
I don’t expect 10% but at least 5%? Same situation here

@Simon Wong

Dear Simon,

ALL Developers still not yet make any decision, But for logic abit , 10% of SST is only affected the total Cost of Construction but not affect the total developement price, so in summary it affected so much as 10% , bcoz normally

developer profit 30&
cost of construction 40 %
profesional & marketing & etc 30%

if the total assume total developement cost is RM 1,000,000

SO , the cost of construction 40% ~ Rm 400,000 only

SST 10% will affect the RM 400,000 ONLY ( Means about Rm 40k only )

40k of 1mil is ~ < 4 % only

so not so much as 10% as we all think

But , all this not confirm , still need to wait

if u wish to book a unit , u can make appointment with me ya ,

I'm SK Ch'ng , Marketing Agent for Montage
* My contact can be found at Marketing agent column

@SK CH’NG
If there is 4% discount please announce here. I sure call you

@SK CH’NG

Saw their Wellness Sunday advertisement in FB. Any promotion for potential buyer on that day other than the on-going RM6,888 rebate etc?

This location and size can get how much for long term rental?

Bad developer
They give more discount to late buyer then early bird
Cannot buy their other property early

What is the latest promotion? I am looking for project at this area and wanna do some comparison.
Early buyer can get better unit compare to later buyer.

Any affordable project now?

@NMM

A bulk purchaser has recently approched one of my client to release their units at 600k each.

Can you introduce the bulk purchaser? I am interested.

@Eco friendly

Based on the sales table i saw few weeks ago from developer, left around 30% (not sure developer got keep for future only sell). No more corner unit for unit number 3A, 5 and 12, still got a few corner unit number 1.

@Buyer

Thanks alot & Best Regards,

I’m one of the soon to b purchaser.
Everything is good about the project but one thing which turn me down is that there is no trash collection at each floor. Residents must go down to trash site to to throw the trash.
The info i got is from one of the agent.

Can anyone ascertain? Or perhaps I understand it wrongly?

Thank you in advance.

Hi all
I was one of the early bird purchaser. Upon signing the spa i noticed that the schelude h is empty. I refuse to sign. Developer quickly return my deposit without any reason + resold my unit.
I sense something not right. Can anyone enlighten me ?

Hi all
I was one of the early bird purchaser. Upon signing the spa i noticed that the schelude h is empty. Empty schelude h means developer can just put in any figure on facilities upon giving keys to buyers. I refuse to sign. Developer quickly return my deposit without any reason + resold my unit.
I sense something not right. Can anyone enlighten me ?

So quiet here

Vincent :
Any whatsapp/ facebook to join for this project? Booked unit and potential buyer. Any cons for this project?

Just booked one unit as well.

Pros –
Location: Zero traffic Light stop to Penang Bridge, QB, FTZ, to Komtar/georgetown thru LCE highway
Price: Cheaper compare to the nearby new condo. Zen6/The Sun/Queywest/Triuni

Cons:
Road to access to the condo too narrow now.
Condo appearance looks dull from the design.
Some future new condo projects may block the sea view.

@Hello
How much ?

@Hello
This condo is good for own stay but not good for investment.
And layout almost similar like Zen6 which equally to affordable house. And the entrance is bad as need go through narrow road. And wondering if future car to park at outside may congested or blocked the street. Anyway, nothing to complain as what you paid mean what you got.

May i know what the price range? the layout look good. very convenience for salaryman stay.

@GV
The layout look similar like The Zen affordable house.
We bought only RM300k for affordable house. And location definitely much better than montage. And appreciation higher.

Is is not right compare the price of montage against Zen affordable.
Montage does not fall under the affordable house scheme project.

Comparing Zen6 vs Montage will be more appropriate.
Each of them have theirs pros and cons.

Anyway don’t be too overjoy of getting RM300k for Zen affordable house right now.
You get what you pay for, you should wait for final outcome of the condo once you gotten your key.
Zen6 owners are paying ~600k onwards for their units, the materials/facilities for zen affordable will not be the same as Zen6.

@Hello
Actually if you see the layout Montage/The Zen/Zen6 all are sharing a same interior layout. No different. In term of material, definitely will be different but it wont justify with few hundred thousand different with just tiles different.
Zen6 & The Zen both are equally same except for extra balcony & extra 4ft yard. Material tiles 2×2 vs normal tiles. In term facilities no different. And for your info RM490k only for those Zen6 unit facing highway. And The Zen public unit only RM450k with 2cp similar tiles used with Zen6. The only thing of Montage in better here is lower density. But in location definitely The Zen is the best as better prime location will define future appreciation. Montage is good for low density that’s good but location and entrance a minus point & don’t forget upcoming new project surrounding this area add on high traffic flow into this small occupied area. Mark my word the appreciation will be low compare to The Zen.

@The Zen Residence

Good to hear too i like the layout. The location also not bad have a great future also. For The Zen also very nice location just i have no luck to get the a unit there.

@GV
Why need luck??

@GV
That guy just came here to show off only… in fact, The Zen is just a low class project

@Thomas Chuah
You’re the 10% of people who disagreed. In fact The Zen is most of the best development where situated in Penang world city. Time will justify everything where investment paid off.
You want to buy this project you need luck as high demand.
This is final piece of land for residential in that area & fully seaview & even town view many buyer just bought it with 500k+ for Zen6. Now this project already appreciated. The montage is good if you need a calm & peaceful environment as lower density.

@The Zen Residence
It is nothing beside seaview. The Zen development lower the standard of the residential area.

Fail to see how Zen has the same layout as Montage.

@Thomas Chuah
You’re fail. Seaview is a primary factor of a condo appreciation.
That’s nothing about lower standard area. Bayan Mutiara is a prime location where D’residence allocated a great peaceful location. I can only see some people mindset with lower standard mindset here. He drew a line here to think he is higher standard. Hahaha…

Anyone knows why Montage stopped working again??

Buyer :
Anyone knows why Montage stopped working again??

Cash flow problem can’t pay contractors then they mah stop working lo, simple as that.

Buyer :
Anyone knows why Montage stopped working again??

R u sure? I stay nearby and saw already build until 20+ level now.

@SS
Ok, thanks for the info.

@Hello
I also stay nearby. Noticed no construction progress anymore for a period after they started building 13th residential floor which is the latest floor.

Anybody inside the FB group of Montage? I was trying to join the group, emailed the SNP and other stuffs, but was not approved by the admin.

@Buyer
Me too, since 2020 Mar

Anyone know how is the progress now? Expected when can get the key?

this project already categories as abandon project

abandoned? what happened? the exterior looks almost completed

hi, any buyers start to follow up with developer on estimate VP timeline?
what about the LAD, the late delivery of property ?
