The storm 2 weeks ago damaged a major part of this construction site. Those who are thinking of buying this project for the seaview might want to think twice about it.
@damien
bad job by IJM. They should have learn the best practice of Asia green
Well, I wouldn’t say it’s only IJM, some other condos near the coast also had issues during the storm, including Queens (ideal), Quaywest (asia agreen), Gold Coast (Ivory), Quayside (E&O), with window/roof panels blown off, trees uprooted etc. With world weather changing to more extreme, those who live near the coast will have to be really careful.
@chookimhock
Yup. The AG price tag is reasonable & plenty of happy purchaser.
The location is fantastic as I can always travel around Sungai ara & here. IJM is still competitive but Ideal quality you know. Try to avoid that.
Don’t forget Asia Green took 10 years to complete Quaywest, LOL.
@damien
why you worry, storm here, unlike hurricane or typhoon elsewhere, does not kill…….
@Oh nice
Haha, not worried, just saying. According to disaster dept analysis, during the recent storm, 60% of incidents of uprooted trees happened within 500m from the coast, and if consider up to 800m from the coast, that increases to 90%. There has been a steady increase of such incidents over the last 15 years due to extreme weather patterns, with exponential increase in the last 5 years. It’s not up to me to worry, it’s up to individual buyers whether they want to put that into consideration when buying a property near the coast. Those who have bought and staying there, wish them luck. Those who haven’t, you still have a choice of buying a property further away from the coast + with a seaview.
@damien
Why worry? I have many house. Later repair. No problem.
Seafront coastline is normal if affected by storm!
@Ryu
Ya, agree with you that normally seafront coastline properties will get hit in a storm, and repairs are frequently required after a storm.
Staying in homes further away from the coast is a good idea in Penang as it is actually a small island and you still get a good seaview if you’re staying 10th floor and above, with significant lower risks of the hassle of damages caused by a storm.
@damien
I would be more worry if my apartment/house is on or next to hill slope…
Is there anyone from Mezzo? Is there a residents WhatsApp group that can be shared?
