i booked 3rd floor, block B... 947sqf
went on to the site to have a look at the LAKE...

then i got to see the 'view'..... man...the lake is so far away... u have to search for... hehe... maybe i'm exaggerating..but still i feel that the lake is far n not like what i had in mind... not like Eastlake..or Fortune Park... so far i cannot believe it... and whats worst is that the condo isnt actually facing the lake... u have to go on to ur really small 'balcony thats just big enuf to stand,cant sit there' n look to the right.... not my idea of view from living room......
but i guess Sutera Bayu semi-Ds and bungalows by Sunrise as neighbours makes this condo not such a bad thing...
still thinking bout this condo... it offers 100% financing... raviera..which floor are u on??? |
as for eastlake ... occupants would have to view the KLIA rail track, Commuter rail track and the Sungai Besi Highway which are between Eastlake and the REAL Eastlake.  |

its not 100% financing as u still have to come up with the 4% of the downpayment ... as i got only 6% discount. Most of the banks offer a bundled package that includes the insurance (MRTA). U still have to pay the lawyer fee. Please don't assume that a buyer only have to pay $100 to get the house. |

Why don't you get the one where there's BLR-0.25%?  from Public Bank if I am not mistaken.

My housemate already kena as he was ask to pay about RM500 of interests because of that ... he is trying to argue .. |
Same thing happened to me as well, but I protested to the developer and they decided not to charged me...cause I said it's not my fault that the bank did not pay on time.  I guess I didn't read the clause on the late payment when I protested.

And there were talks that the view of lake from Fortune park will be blocked by a building near the mines waterfront business park. And Heritage is simply to expensive ... a unit of the studio apartment cost <>RM190,000 (without balcony) and <>RM200,000 (with balcony) but furnished. |
Visited Fortune Park again over the weekend, some part of the view is blocked by the Business Park and I heard there's going to be shop lots directly in front of Fortune Park.
Fortune Park is launching the 2nd Phase soon and the price is going up... |

the most attractive 'bundle' that comes together with the condo would be the Bactefree ... ofcourse u need additional filters for the kitchen ... but atleast when u soak ur white t-shirt, it won't become yellow . I think recall Eastlake or Fortune Park or even Heritage has that feature ... |

|
|
Hi guys,
I book a unit Block B 2nd floor. I guess block B facing the pool side units are highly sought as opposed to the ones facing the highway. Initially I thot lower floor unit facing the pool can get noise problems from pool side or from ppl walking acroos da 'bridge' to the pool. But when some1 mentioned that there're only 3 lifts serving 606units, heck lower floor may not seem like a bad idea esp if the lif service is suck. U never know.
Do you notice that there's a 'kumbahan pool' in between juta mines and lake area? Fortunately it's not directly in front of the new constructed block. Closer to the already completed block.
I intend to rent it first and may be move in few years later. Any idea of the potential rental rate?The agent said it's probably arnd RM1000, but i guess it's lower than that. Any idea how much a similar condo unit is renting at Mines area? BTW, any1 takes the 1200sqf unit? It's good for own stay, but price is steeper la. Ok, hope to hear some insights before i sign the SnP. BTW, do i need to pay toll to get to UNITAR? I know it's toll free all the way to Putrajaya, which is a nice point. |

3 lifts serving each block = 6 lifts serving 2 blocks ...
i did not notice the 'kolam kumbahan' . The lower units facing the pool will be a bit noisier during the evening period or weekend mornings .. that was one of the reason why i picked the unit facing the hill. units facing the pool are more expensive from the ones facing the hill too ..  |

where is UNITAR ? .... i think RM1000 (which size is ur unit?) is a bit expensive RM700-RM800 would get more attention .... come on lah ... u are thinking of paying the house loan entirely from the rent |

| UNITAR is in Sg Long area. I'm not familiar with Sg.Long, but I believe u can access it via Silk n Kajang Cheras highway. The kumbahan pool i accidently notice while walking ard the block. It's across the almost completed block, prob slighly to the left (if you face the 'lake'). My booked unit is 947sqf. Yes the units facing the hill/highway are cheaper, yet i'm afraid there still be noise pollution from the vehicles on the highway. The area's gonna be crowded one day. It's only if I can determine the right timing. I feel the condos r slightly overpriced n over supplied right now. |

888888888888888888888 is a good floor (for the Chinese atleast) the reason the balcony is small is because they extended the living room ... that was what i was told ... |
