Vista Gambier Price increased again , about RM50K per unit......and without any notice starting May....the cheapest unit will cost around RM335K for the 1st floor.
My sis went to the developer office and was told that the boss doesnt make money from the old price (who believe), this is not fair for existing under consideration potential customer. She was shock today when she wan to pay the 10%, but suddenly increase and the management not even inform her.

 
May 6, 2008 at 5:46 PMAnonymous

I guess this is the impact of the raw material cost increased. Hopefully this is not the signal the Lereng Wire is running out of money.

 
May 6, 2008 at 5:50 PMAnonymous

the price up should be due to the construction material price up recently

 
May 6, 2008 at 8:17 PMRee

Well, The price increase 2 times, that is during end Oct 2007 and another increase is around Feb 2008.

Most of the ppl aware of this. Someone even get frustrated on the price increase etc...

Yes, due to the olympic in China, all raw material increase. Even steel and cement also increase. U can go to any shop and ask on this.

The developer told me, the foundation development alone cost them 200K extra.

You can try other developer, even lease hold 1280++ sq feet can go as high as $370K (IJM) and Oasis around $300K for 1000sq feet.

Nothing comes cheap for the property price in penang. Thanks, to the spaculators and investors, by frying the property sky high.

 
May 6, 2008 at 11:21 PMRee

Some other section stated that

The spring 936sqft=300k, this mean:
300k/936 = $320.50 per sqft

Bayswater = $340 per sqft

Vista gambier = 385k/1343sqft(let say add additional car park of 15k and 9 lvl) = $287 per sqft

This is only some of the comparison on newly launch property. Please dont shoot me.

The Spring is in Jelutong. Near Ocean View condo. Developer is IJM lor.

 
May 7, 2008 at 6:28 PMAnonymous

Hard to compare The Spring and VG. Some prefer seaside and some prefer hillside. But for me, reclaim land is out.
Bayswater 1600sf actually only sell at 500K plus, which is $312.5 ++ per sf. The Spring is now more expensive that Bayswater already.
Both are along JE way and by IJM.
VG should compare with Oasis or I-Regency, or Palm Palladium.

 
May 8, 2008 at 3:30 PMAnonymous

bayswater 1600, 500++k is for low floor and tower B which dun hv penang bridge view. if high floor and tower A, facing penang bridge, shud be around 600k. this is based on the transaction price given by agent.

 
May 8, 2008 at 4:17 PMAnonymous

Thanks for the clarification. Anyway, The Spring should not be that close to Bayswater, which is far more ideal. Apartment Vs Condominium....
Let's stop this topic there. This is for VG.

 
May 8, 2008 at 9:51 PMAnonymous

As far as i can remember, VG and Oasis were both introduced in the property home fair 2 years back, but its sad to see that neither has any structures up yet and aome are not even reaching breakeven sales point to deem the project feasible. As for Spring, no roadshows are needed. Condo is 80% completed before even open for sale. And when it was, 80% was sold within 2 weeks. Hence its clear that the two developers are not even near IJM's league. From a buyer's point of view however, i would agree with most that both these places have far much quality living than the Spring but keep in mind - Spring purchasers got to see what the actual condo looks like. For VG, some of u are still searching for the earthwork pilings as a means of consolation. You don't deserve this...

 
May 9, 2008 at 6:54 AMRee

I believe you are one of the investors? Thank you very much.

Do you think other project selling so well? Most of the buyers are investors, i can say near to 70%.

Ok, If wanna discuss more, can go to that section to discuss.

 
May 9, 2008 at 12:37 PMAnonymous

Ya. I agree at their own league, which professionalism is not important anymore. Property not selling to real buyer but investor. They created the demand, which is not real picture.
The buyer of The Spring can only see from far. They also not able to get in. They cannot imagine the half seaview and rubbish view also. Correct me if I am wrong.
Ya, let's go the The Spring blog to talk more. I have written some there!
This is a disadvantage of small developer, but once the project completed, you will find out you are buying the property with actual market value, not the goreng value.

 
May 22, 2008 at 11:34 PMAnonymous

Hi all,

Do any update recently?

 
May 23, 2008 at 9:12 AMRee

You can go to the site and have a site tour there.

I went last week, the ground level they already extend out with cement floor. I think by this week or next week, the whole ground level will be ready..

 
May 24, 2008 at 1:34 AMAnonymous

Wah super slow ler.. some of my friends have opted for Spring and now considering Summer pula.. any idea if they are on schedule? Hope they dun turn out like another oasis down the road...

 
May 24, 2008 at 8:17 AMRee

Super slow? I dont think so. U can compare with more developer. Cannot deny that IJM is fast, it is a big listed company in main board. They have the capitor for mega project.

VG schedule to complete next year. Perhaps after June, not later by sept 2009. After that may need few months on pending OC approval.

Summer? Another IJM project, it may take another 2 years on that. I think it is a lease hold. The spring? If you are willing to pay >320k(minimal release price 270k, plus 50k after ppl frying) for the smallest unit. Go ahead and post in the spring section. Some ppl are willing to sell there.

 
May 24, 2008 at 5:37 PMAnonymous

agreed ! why pay more for a smaller unit like spring? even if it is not a 'fried' price, it is not worth it for leash hold.

 
May 24, 2008 at 8:28 PMAnonymous

Ree,
Dun get so emotional over differences in opinions. After all, this is a blog for discussion right?

If VG is as good as you say it is, dun worry about doomsayers. The project will get finished on time anyway.

At way you are responding, u sound more like the developer or rather a buyer who cant afford to see this project fail..

Cheers Dude!

 
May 25, 2008 at 2:27 PMRee

Emotional? Not true. If i cannot accept the possiblility that it may failed, y i ask ppl to choose other unit that they desire?

I sounds like developer? I can tell you that I am not. I did mentioned that this project are not perfect, some -ve commens posted in my previous post. If I am the developer, Y i post -ve commens here?

Cannot afford to loose? I can tell you that I do more risky investments instead of this. I even plan to buy Summer in the near future.

Please do more research b4 posting any commens, i do not agree that this project is super slow. U can do other research around such as Oasis and I-Regency, somewhere around this area.

 
May 25, 2008 at 9:46 PMJeSSe

Well guys, things are actually in progress slow in the beginning due to the land scape and earth work matter.

But i think the structural contractor may be able to catch up whatever time lost from the 1st phase of development and provide some proactive action for it.

more pictorial update for those barely visit the site in person.
please visit vistagambier.blogspot.com

Good work LW/VG

 
May 26, 2008 at 4:21 PMAnonymous

Normally if everything went smoothly, the developer should able to built 2~3 levels per month.
So, 22 stories probably need 8 to 11 months. Then need about 6 months until OC obtained. 2 months for renovation, you could move in at Oct'09 or latest Jan'10, with condition no other issue from now on.
I think this is still acceptable.

 
May 26, 2008 at 10:00 PMAnonymous

Is there anymore units left for with the developer for this project? if not, anyone here wants to sell their off theirs?
I'm interested. Thx

 
May 27, 2008 at 7:01 AMRee

There are still 30% left. But all are >9 level. I think still have 1 or 2 units on low level. Please check with the developer.

 
May 27, 2008 at 7:55 AMAnonymous

If you want to buy, my advise maybe you can consider Palm Palladium because almost completed and nearby that area as well.

 
May 27, 2008 at 2:25 PMAnonymous

I am looking for a condo around Bayan Baru/Gelugor/Bukit Gambier area. My budget is < 300K. Appreciate your advise. List of apartments in my mind:-
1]Palm Palladium
2]Ixora Height
3]The Spring
4] i-Regiency
5]Vista Gambier
Which one is still available from the developer?

 
May 27, 2008 at 3:20 PMRee

I dont think you can get <300k in the list.

IXORY perhaps... Since no one goreng yet? I am not sure on this.

On VG, i am not sure abt the level 1 unit. maybe it still left 1 or 2? Not sure.

Palm paladdium. Not bad also. Now near to completion, u can go in and have a look. just smuggle in and have a real feeling there. I dont think it is selling cheap. >340k perhaps...

 
May 27, 2008 at 5:59 PMAnonymous

< 300K only Ixora Height. But also leave 1 unit as per 2 weeks ago.

Other condo are sold out or > 300K. Maybe you can wait for Mutiara Pica at Bayan Mutiara, which to be launched in Oct'08. Minimum 260K.

To widen your choice, you must increase your budget to 400K.

 
May 27, 2008 at 7:21 PMAnonymous

I love Palm Palladium and awaiting OC obtain.

 
May 27, 2008 at 11:34 PMAnonymous

Who is the developer for Mutiara Pica ? appreciate your info.

any idea of this project detail ?

 
May 27, 2008 at 11:41 PMAnonymous

To....'I love Palm Palladium and awaiting OC obtain.'

Are you Palm P owner ?
Do you intend to sell or buy one instead ?

 
May 28, 2008 at 9:15 AMAnonymous

I'm owner but my friend want to buy as well. Anyone want to sell?

 
May 28, 2008 at 11:32 AMRee

Hi all,

This is VG section, please do not spam anything not related to VG project here.

Please go to respective section and post there. Thank you :p

 
May 28, 2008 at 12:25 PMAnonymous

Mutiara Pica should be by PDC.

For the Palm Palladium lover, stop your hard selling at most of the blog. You only make people feel bad about Palm Palladium.

Now I have intension to pin point Palm Palladium bad points in Palm Palladium blog, just because of you.

 
May 28, 2008 at 2:30 PMAnonymous

Hi,
Anyone interested to sell his/her unit?
I am looking for the non corner unit from 9-13 floor. Prefer West Wing ...

My budget is ~380-400K.

Thanks~!

 
May 28, 2008 at 6:22 PMJeSSe

wow, i think ppl starts show their interest in subsale after seeing the real structure comes up.

Thats a good sign.

On the other hand, why make slow decision in the first place. i think the unit easily sell more expensive than before already.

The moment i signed s&P to last march properties has increase approx 100K already, and now? just because of the raging steel and other construction material. i dont know the price still valid or not.

You are always welcome to contact Ms Chin for the available unit from developer first before subsale, else you may think that ppl earn the fried money out of you.

LW - Ms Chin 0164143313

 
May 28, 2008 at 9:09 PMAnonymous

The developer is reluctant to sell the remaining units for the moment. Probably they will hike up the price again after the show unit is ready. Good marketing strategy.

 
May 28, 2008 at 9:22 PMAnonymous

What I am looking for is a West Wing unit between 9-13th floor.

All these units are already sold out :(

If someone owns this unit & interested to sell it, please leave your contact here for me ...

 
May 29, 2008 at 10:09 AMAnonymous

To Corner Units Owners:
Please leave yoru contact here to me if you own a corner units with 2 car parks & interested to sell within 450-500K (inclusive the 2nd car park) ...

 
May 30, 2008 at 10:59 PMAnonymous

as reported recently in the Edge dated 26/05/08 It seems steel prices are rising to worrying levels. Here are some excerps from the report:

"...In the two weeks since the ceiling price was lifted, steel bar prices have shot up to a level surpassing even the "grey" tags contractors had been paying before. Steel prices used to be capped at around RM2,400 per tonne but the grey market price ranged from RM3,000 to RM3,600, says Master Builders Association Malaysia (MBAM) president Patrick Wong. The prices today range from RM3,800 to RM4,000...."

".... For property buyers, brace for higher prices. Wong also sees developers delaying property launches except for the high-end properties where demand remains strong. Yam says the selling price of properties cannot be maintained at current prices. Developers caught in this transition, especially those who are completing their projects in one or two years' time, will suffer as they have to factor in the higher costs leading to margins being compressed, he adds... "

Like it or not steel plays a significant part in project costing. Lets hope LW doesn't revise the price.

Cheers...

 
May 31, 2008 at 11:59 AMAnonymous

For you info, once you sign S&P or when you pay the booking fees, the price cannt be changed.

meow meow

 
May 31, 2008 at 3:33 PMAnonymous

Yeah..but prices for the remaining units will shoot up and hopefully LW does not experience cost overun. Just a concern.

 
June 3, 2008 at 11:19 AMAnonymous

Hi Jesse Kong,

you said "believe it or not, the estimate readiness of the show room (4 carpark + 1 residence level) to be scheduled ready by July"

are you sure about it coz' the dev dare not even confirm this? would appreciate it if you could inform us who actually said that. TQ

 
June 3, 2008 at 11:50 AMAnonymous

i heard the same,this project coming up the 4car parking n first floor for show house. mayb this july or august. i interested to buy 1 unit my budget RM500k with 2 car park.

Does anybody know if the petrol price hike will cause any impact to the progress of this project?

 
June 7, 2008 at 5:01 PMAnonymous

I think it would, given that rising petrol prices affects all other living costs in general. but a far much greater concern is the abolishment of ceiling prices on cement and steel. If any property developer is not strong enough in terms of cashflow, they are bound to find it hard to cope.

 
June 7, 2008 at 6:56 PMAnonymous

I dont think this project will be able to complete. It will be abandoned soon. Reasons:
1. Oil increment
2. Cement increment
3. Steel bar increment
4. Heavy Machine Rental Fees increment
5. Price for this condo is cheaper. This means lower profit margin.
Definitely this developer does not have solid financial background. They do not have anymore projects, thus no more income.
I remember they launched this condo in shopping centre. Have you been to their office?

Buyer, pray hard and keep an eye on the developer. Anytime cabut!

 
June 7, 2008 at 10:27 PMRee

To the latest anonymous,

I think you should be the upset buyers that requested withdrawal of the project or any squatter that chased off by developer.

I once saw some upset and angry buyers withdraw their booking fees. The reason is when they start purchase, they compare the 1st release price. They try to demand more, try to get the offer similar to the 1st batch purchase. When all demands were not met(like getting 1st release price, free 2nd car park, free LCD TV etc), the desperation change to demand later to anger.

Everything increase, now we are in inflation, inflation will cause more ppl to buy until to a stage that ppl no longer have the purchase power, thus turn to recession.

If this project turns to be a failure project, why in the 1st place this project ever started? Now you can c that they already constucted entended area, ground floor with the center lift area. Despite so many complaints from the surrounding, they can have this excuse and seize the project. Why they are still contructing till stage?

You can check, i can tell you one thing. The developer had sold >50%, this amount already can cover the whole project. The remainning is just a profit to their revenue. Thus they are confident enough to start constructing. If this is not convinced enough, you can always approach banker. The loan is still on and NO bank banned this project. Bank know how to protect their asset/investment. Bankers are more cautious in handling this.

This property cheap? Till stag, the price already went up to 400k to 500k. Do you think condo with this price tag cheap?

Hope you are not the upset buyers who withdraw the booking fees. You must accept that we are now in inflation, the price will go sky high in property. Perhaps, you may be lucky, inflation may lead to recession. By that time, hope can can get the unit below soft launch price.

 
June 7, 2008 at 11:44 PMAnonymous

I agreed with the 5 points given up there but chances of this project being abandoned is slim. However, the chances of material contents will probably be reduced. This is normally the ill practice of local developers.

Well,to the latest a'mous, inflation does not cause ppl to buy but reversely it is ppl expectation that causes the inflation. At this stage, don't you think that ppl will start to save more ,spend less and thus inflationary progrosses in less intensity? I doubt recession will follow suit. The great 'Stagflation' (inflation +recession) happend in 1970 in the US. Only if world economy is into this, then will only M'sia get it. By then everybody is in deep shit.

Of course developer will not stop this project knowing 50% is sold. Of course they were confident but that was before petrol hike! If they default this project, housing ministry will burnt its deposit in Million $. The story is petrol hike this week, will they be still profitable to continue? or to up the margin, will they reduce the content of the materials ? think about it.

 
June 8, 2008 at 8:04 AMAnonymous

To Ree,
I am not the upset buyer and not buyer for this condo. In fact before the project was launched, i have gone to their office to pick the unit i wanted. At that time, units sold was less than 10. So if i want to grab a good unit, i could do it anytime with 1st price release, which was usually much lower. I dont mind about LCD and car park because it was already compensated in the 1st release price. I am judging based on current situation. In fact most property which is building half way will be affected. So financial backfround of the developer says it all.
Definitely to cover the cost of building, material used will be less quality.
This is actually quite bad luck for property buyer during this period.

 
June 8, 2008 at 9:56 AMAnonymous

Hello All,
This project is not going to be abandoned due to the reasons below ...

1. >60% of the units had been sold. Meaning, it already covered up to all its basic cost. The rest of the units sold will be purely "benefit" or "income". However, undeniably, the cost of the remaining unit will sky high in order to maintain the profit margin. As some forecasted, property price in PG will increase by 50% in next 2 years.
2. AMBANK is the financial support for this project/developer.
3. Does anyone what is the real core business background of this project ... go & find out & you why understand why I say so.

aiya, all also no need to argue ler... If Ambank is their financier, just try to find out from their staff who are doing the bridging loan la... If Ambank has no issue, chances are the project is STILL ok for now. If Ambank starts to panic, then i suggest u guys start too.

Dont simply said ppl. This developer hav enough money to finish up their project. dont wish ppl com to abandon. we must wish all developer will success in their project.

June 11, 2008 at 10:15 PMAnonymous

A word of advice.
Ground 0, you guys starts worrying of developer running away, if you dont exit now.
Then at level 5 may be, 30% of the total sum has been taken. Starts worrying again. May be slow, or delay. Then when 60% is taken, it will be too late to starts worrying again. So, do you want to keep worrying all the way from ground 0? or exit now?

 
June 11, 2008 at 11:15 PMRee

To the latest anonymous,

Most of the ppl here already sign the S&P, for what reason to withdraw? If wanna withdraw also, nothing much buyers here can do what. 20% already paid!

If you are the insider, if the spaculation is true, u think bank will continue release the remaining amount? bank will appoint new developer to continue the project.

If you do have your point for the financial problem, please provide this info to the bankers. Bankers will cut loss(bank and buyers loss). Please do not cause havoc or panic here if there are no real facts behind.

I appriciate your commens, but just telling ppl that the sky are falling will not help much. Or doomsday are near will not help either.

Just share with ppl the evidence/facts. We appriciate that. Put a real name here.. Dont hide behind and spreading this non constructive news here. Do you think casing havoc or mayhem will help much?

 
June 11, 2008 at 11:16 PMAnonymous

aiyo, Bank give loan, Bank must continue to pay loan to developer lah. They cannot stop or else kena sue. Cannot say bank continue to pay so project sure ok.

 
June 12, 2008 at 6:54 AMRee

Sometimes, i really felt lazy to reply this blog.

Do you know what is progressive payment? Do you think bank give 100% loan immediately? The bank will only pay portion of the payment stages to stages. For ex, when they deliver 10%, they will find architect to certified that their progress is indeed 10%, after that, bank will continue on the next 10%.

If close shop at that stage, we will not loose all the $$$. The most is only that 10%, bank will find another developer to continue on the work. The price will not be increase, if it get to the worst, it may only increase a bit. The thing we are lossing if this thing happen is time. It may delay as banker try to find new developer to continue the task.

Grow up a bit. Bank know how to protect their assets. Do you think we will loose 100% once the developer runs away?

I do not know what is your purpose here by spreading this. BUt hope you are not the upset buyers as I mentioned earlier. If you are the buyer that stated you can choose any units you want during the soft launch. I think U miss the opportunity 1 or 2 years ago and now try to spread something bad since u cannot afford to loose(kiasu).

I tell you I also regret not to buy landded property 3 years back, that time semi-D only 400k, terrace only 300k. Who to blame? Will I spreading non constructive rumours? NO! Please grow up.

 
June 12, 2008 at 8:04 AMAnonymous

Is that too sensitive to talk about Money/Funding here.

We all are concerning on the progress of the project being done according to the schedule. And free to comment anything at all in this blog.

I think the bankers also too careful to select the borrowers at any instance.

Sure they will make search and also balance the affordability & ROI for the developer. It goes the same to us all as the purchaser. If we cannot show decent document of proof for our source of income, do you think the bank will release loan to us?

Therefore, i would say only risk taker will purchase the developing project; whilst the conservative ppl with buy subsale where you can
buy the physical unit as it is.

It is always the case. Who dare to say 'guarantee' for all purchases can make profit?

 
June 12, 2008 at 2:29 PMAnonymous

undeniably, bank is a way to find out the stability & potential of a project ...

If you don't believe me, try to ask around for banks that offer loan on OASIS ...

Bottomline, no one wants a business that is with negative return of investment.

 
June 12, 2008 at 5:54 PMAnonymous

i dun get it. some ppl panic when negative comments are raised. why leh? u tink developer can be affected by this comments meh? u tink development will stop meh?

If the project is good, work will go on despite whatever criticism thrown at it. If it sucks, it will fail no matter how u protect it with kind words.

grow up la... its yur decision to fight on or abandon the race. ultimately its yur money ma..aiyo..

 
June 12, 2008 at 5:55 PMAnonymous

Everybody please stays cool.

40% hike of fuel price will definitely create chaos on the inflation global wide. The world has accepted the fact already, and why dont we take it too? Was that Malaysia been in the comfort zone too long that lack of awareness in this area?

I look at this scenario differently. It is a good timing to invest in properties while thing are inflating (provided you have sufficient funding to sustain). As you may foresee the gain of your limited capital on hand in the coming years.
WHat else can guarantee you the return as compared to saving in the bank? That will be either Stock Market or Properties already.

Therefore, dear all purchaser / property investors. We dont pray to have things done, but we execute things to complete the task.

Please be tolerate enough to make the event happen. Just let LW/VG to be completed in time.

I believe we are do use our hard earned money to 'invest' in this properties. Who want to see it delay nor fail?

Those ppl who missed the boat may still catch up with it. (estimated inflation for the next 3 years, will definitely more that 30%)
Those are calculated risk, the ball is on your hand now.

 
June 12, 2008 at 10:47 PMAnonymous

A word of advice again;
This is the second time I m sharing my advice. Since you guys are keen on this, just make sure you guys visit the site before the loan is released. Nothing in this world can ensure the Architect cert is full proof. The Architect firm can be the developer's relative or its crony's comapany. Its panel lawyer can be its friend's friend's company.

Back in 1997, Bank released loan based on 'paper'. They should be the one to visit the site before loan is released. Not the loan borrower. Sime bank closed down due to nonperforming loan. Why?

Yes, you can trust the banks now. They can ensure the developer is good but who will liable for the stalled project? It is back to the Owner. Look at Majestic! You think bank protects the loan borrowers ? It is hilarious! They will make sure you drip the last drop of your blood!.

My friend did a smart thing. He visited the site of his SP house. When the projected slowed down in 1998 at stage of 40%, he immediately ordered the bank to sotp paying the developer! all other oweners who failed to stop suffered 90% loss. So, is the bank smart or careless? or being dumn and irresposible?

*I m a victim of Majectic height.
Hope this help.

It's best to check with your banker if you can authorized them to stop progressive payment when "irregularities" in the projects are detected or high possiblity of project failure. What will happen to the loan if u instruct to stop progressive payment? Do u have to pay full loan o/s immediately since now Bank don't have property as security? Do banks do site investigations before making payment? Don't guess but discuss with Bank your options and responsibilities before u decide. Don't read and accept what is written here which you know got cybertroopers from interested parties.

If not mistaken, majistic do not sell well(maybe below 50%). The developer build with no capital. I think they got financial prob as well.

How come you relate both this project together? LW from majistic height? Please share here...
Isnt that majistic height developer already bankrupt?

 
June 13, 2008 at 12:00 PMAnonymous

Majestic height:
http://www.hba.org.my/archive/focus/majestic_heights/1992-1999.htm

I think this is the only failed project. Till stage, i think the gov or bank already come out with new guide line or rules on this. No point to related this project to VG.

When VG delay on the project, everyone said they cannot sell. Please refer to other project, besides IJM, Boon Siew or any other big developer. Which company develop with no delay? Regency height and I-Regency also delay for almost 2 years.

When VG started to build and now are still progress well, some claim that it will bankrupt. Related other failed project to this.

Some ppl even asking for subsales, do you know how much they are willing to sell on subsales. Some even offer 80K under table, plus the booking of 10%(roughly 30k). We as a buyers, if can take out 80k plus 10%, why buy a subsales apartment. If we can afford with this huge amount, with this >100k amount, landded should be the 1st choice. Why buy from subsales? pay more to illegal seller/investors?

The system really ill here. Rich getting richer while poor getting poorer. Hard to imagine how our next genaration buying property here.

Went to the site today, the contruction is still ongoing for 3rd floor :-)

Went to the site as well, Till 5:40pm still got lots of workers doing work there.

Approximately >20 or >30ppl working there.

22storey high, currently still at 3rd storey, tentative completion on June 2009 (less than 1 yr to go), 20~30ppl working currently..go do the math..

 
June 19, 2008 at 3:12 PMRee

What is wrong with level 3 and 1 more year of completion?

Nothing wrong with the maths. Cannot allow ppl to develop 2-3 level per monht?

 
June 19, 2008 at 4:51 PMAnonymous

Y condemn like that? u thing u r good in math?? haha.. If u in developer situation sure u know wats the prob they facing.. They also wan to completed their project as schedule but they also got a few prob with land n also ppl surrounding..

 
June 19, 2008 at 7:36 PMAnonymous

To the above anonymous,
May be you can share with us what is the problem that developer facing? Thanks.

 
June 19, 2008 at 8:39 PMAnonymous

I believe that the "anonymous" keep saying run away developer, bankrupt, expert in so call maths is the same person that post the same thing in D'piazza, VG, Oasis, Ixory and others.

There are some good answers/commens dedicated to that person. Please refer to D'Piazza latest commens. They have a good reply to that so call "anonymous"

 
June 19, 2008 at 10:00 PMAnonymous

Lets welcome for those new anonymouses, i would like to suggest that those who are interested about the progress and of the development history of the project, you can always start to read the blog from the beginning before comment further. Else blog/chat room will repeat the same old top again.

No heart feelings, those were the topic we have discussed a while back already.

 
June 20, 2008 at 11:08 AMAnonymous

open for sale today but first floor rm420000 it's TOO expensive can think about bayswater.

 
June 20, 2008 at 11:38 AMAnonymous

Hi Anony,
Is this true?
Where & how you get this info?
Also, what do you mean by "open for sale" since I tot this project is always "open for sale" all the time???

 
June 20, 2008 at 7:17 PMAnonymous

bear in mind the 3 floors completed is only the carpark which is simpler than the apartment floors. Hopefully they are on track. what have they been doing for the past 1 1/2 years anyway?

 
June 21, 2008 at 10:54 AMAnonymous

i think u must do a study wif the previous comments.. the developer facing prob wif that land. got a lots of rock..they must clear the rock b4 start piling. when started work facing prob wif surrounding ppl at terrace house there.

 
June 22, 2008 at 1:31 AMAnonymous

thanks for reminding them.
I think those who wonder the progress that was too slow on the development, sure they did follow the progress/comments from the blog before. Else they won't be say so much here.

I am sure those are the late purchaser or who did pull out or missed from the first launch of the project.

Else they wont be spend their time to comment much in here.

PLease put your name if you dare.

 
June 22, 2008 at 3:06 AMAnonymous

they should have taken into consideration all that what, knowing fairly well the terrain and social implications.. just hope they can finish it on time. The news these days on the construction industry is just too scary to digest.. check out next week's edition of The Edge

 
June 22, 2008 at 12:16 PMAnonymous

chowfahai, if you accept differing views, putting your big name there doesn't make a difference la. My advice, don't comfort yourself based on the "positive comments" made by prior bloggers. Accept negative comments, some which do make sense. You have eyes to see and a brain to think. Dun be so obsessed with the project like the what the Oasis owners did in the past. They rejected whatever negative comments point blank and see who has the last laugh now...

 
June 23, 2008 at 7:43 AMAnonymous

Ai ya... dun worry. Just be happy. Like they always say. "Happy go lucky". :-)

 
June 24, 2008 at 8:16 AMAnonymous

i suggest anonymous hold your horse on 2 carpark with 390K.

It is wise that you wait till after OC, it is pretty easy to refer to the trend of most project in penang island that can be double folded from the purchase price.

Unless you are now in need of the cash while making 100k is enough from the potential unit.

With the reference of inflation, increment in petrol price, construction material.... By the time the project complete (say end 2009) the selling price will be ???? (i'm think you may foresee the price then...)

So, the choice is yours.

 
June 24, 2008 at 10:13 AMAnonymous

ok, i will hold my unit. aim to sell at 500k, ha ha.

 
June 24, 2008 at 8:04 PMAnonymous

Your unit now worth around RM470K Please check with the lastest price release. Once the show unit is ready, 500k should not have any problem

 
June 24, 2008 at 11:08 PMAnonymous

hold longer la..when the recession hits in the near future, i buy from you rm300K...

 
June 25, 2008 at 9:09 AMAnonymous

Recession, that time do you think that the price for penang property will drop 40%?

How many casses in 1997 where property drop 40%(in penang)? That is not the recession in 1997.

Good luck, hope u can sapu 10 units at that time.

 
June 25, 2008 at 9:18 AMAnonymous

I'll buy frm u at 200K fully furnished. :-) I'll pay you cash. !!!

 
June 25, 2008 at 10:14 AMAnonymous

i guess your 200K is not riggit malaysia, should be USD at the very least :)

 
June 25, 2008 at 10:18 AMAnonymous

I will buy 5 units as well..If 200k.

This price? In world war or malaysia war time can get this la.

So wait lo. Sure 1 day will have this.

 
June 25, 2008 at 5:33 PMAnonymous

For those wish the price drop, just keep the dream. Your 200K will not able to get even an low cost apartment later.

Nevermind if not believe me. But you can study more on related topic. Recession will not cause the property price drop in city area.

 
June 25, 2008 at 11:42 PMAnonymous

July 23, 2008 at 1:14 PMVG

the cheapest maintenance fee for condominium (RM160) compared to others new coming up projects

 
July 23, 2008 at 1:41 PMVG

the project comes up, don't worry , i think will be completed in time.

 
July 24, 2008 at 9:56 AMAnonymous

maintenance fix rm160/-? very cheap.. not like others condo,
all around rm200 n above..

 
July 24, 2008 at 1:32 PMAnonymous

I buy this condo not because of its cheapest maintenance fee but I like its "strategic" location.

 
July 24, 2008 at 2:53 PMAnonymous

Me too. I bought Vista Gambier just because of its strategic location. Considering the location, this condo is worth of purchase, either for own stay or investment purpose.

 
July 24, 2008 at 6:59 PMAnonymous

I bought this condo because of its location, low density, low maintenance, and the layout. Dun like room with multiple corners. :p

 
July 24, 2008 at 7:12 PMAnonymous

Something to add on for its layout.

I guess it is hard to find another condo with the same layout where we only have single unit in a roll which created a more "private space" for better privacy since nobody will stay at the opposite site.

Secondly, with this single unit layout, I do expected that it will also have better air ventilation which will also promote a more healthy environment instead of depends on the "air con" & thus will save us more on electricity bill as well :)

I wouldn't be surprise that this condo price will hike up to >500k upon its completion with all its advantages & strategic location.

 
July 24, 2008 at 7:24 PMAnonymous

The price now already 480K ++ above with 2 car park.

Do not need to wait for the completion for this to reach 500K :)

 
July 24, 2008 at 8:55 PMAnonymous

Which floor is 480k++ with 2 car parks?

Not quite follow the price recently ...

 
July 25, 2008 at 10:32 AMAnonymous

No la.. i went to their office, the price for 1st floor is RM398k++ with 1 carpark only.. 2nd carpark RM30k...

but worth it to buy..

 
July 25, 2008 at 11:02 AMAnonymous

That is 1st floor, I think only 1 unit left.

All other >10 floors, 2nd level onwards i think is 10K more, plus every 3k on each floor.

2 car park rate:
So, 1st level 398k+30k = 428k
2nd floor 418k+30k = 448k
3rd floor 421k+30k = 452k
...
10th floor 442k+30k = 472k
11th floor 445k+30k = 475k

So, for subsales, it will reach 500k in no time...

 
July 25, 2008 at 12:23 PMAnonymous

398K for first floor?????

Who tell you the price is 398K. I guess first floor only costs 330k right.

 
July 25, 2008 at 1:30 PMAnonymous

Anyone have any idea how many units left?

How many % had been sold with S&P so far ???

 
July 25, 2008 at 7:57 PMAnonymous

Abt pricing, please ask developer. If not mistaken, RM398K for 1st floor.

How many units sold? If not mistaken, >70% sold.. 100+ unit over 144

Wow, after inflation, the housing price shoot up dramatically.
Wondering how to get a house now?
400k for a working employee is not affordable...
Hope the government help to reduce the price...

 
July 26, 2008 at 9:54 AMAnonymous

Rm330k no more la.. now all increase but maintenance still same rm160/- pm..

corner still left 3unit.. 1st floor n above for 2nd floor.. the sqft is big.. 1343sqft for intermediate n corner 1556sqft...

they will hav a shoe house on aug or sept'08..

 
July 26, 2008 at 9:55 AMAnonymous

Of coz, everyone of us have to understand ourselves spending capability ...

The government's responsibility is not to make everyone can stay in a a condo that costs 400-500k but to provide a stable & resourceful country for everyone to have enough opportunity to make $$$.

There is still a lot of other kind of house/apartment type ranging from low cost flat -> medium cost flat -> condo -> lander houses -> super luxury condo or bungalow.

Rank your income accordingly & decides what is the right staying status for yourself.

 
July 28, 2008 at 9:53 AMAnonymous

A while back, PORR & monorail were once the people concerns for this condo, now, with both of these mega projected being deferred, it should eliminate all those (noise)concerns arise from these projects.

August 8, 2008 at 2:26 PMAnonymous

Hi Ree, Jesse and others anony owners. Nice to read all your contributions but did not post any comment any until now. I am among the early buyer in 2006/07 and when this project completed do stay active to help upkeep our home. From my knowledge the progress is very good and fast until the consultant need to tell them to slowdown in order to make sure this project is of good quality and not rush job, it should be ready according to schedule.

Hi to all...

Now they built till level 8 on east wing.

 
September 18, 2008 at 9:55 AMVG WW 8

Hi All,
Anyone know why they are using a bigger size brick? That does not look like cememnt sand brick.

 
September 26, 2008 at 2:08 PMUnknown

I think the reason why they are using bigger brick is to speed up the construction.
In fact, I would guess that the bigger brick is more costly compare to the smaller brick.

Just went to the site recently, one thing I noticed is that the construction on West Wing is really slow compare to East Wing i.e. West Wing @ 5th floor while East Wing already @ 10th floor.

Hope that they will catch up on West Wing soon.

 
September 26, 2008 at 6:55 PMCY

I think the slow progress in West wing due to swimming pool. Anyway, hope the progress can be expedited.

 
October 3, 2008 at 6:21 PMRee

Latest update:

Multi level car park: 4 levels completed
Extended West wing car park: Basement only
East Wing: Level 7
West Wing: Level 2

 
October 4, 2008 at 7:43 PMUnknown

With the recent rainny weather, it will surely impact the overall construction's pace ...

Based on current progress, I doubt that it can be completed by mid next year ... :(

Anyone has any thoughts on this? Feel free to comment :)

 
October 6, 2008 at 10:01 AMRee

If calculate correctly, now is progress around 39% during this 5 months. Still rememebr that it start the construction during mid may.(Pilling till end of march, job onhold till Mid of May)

If everything progress well, by next March(5 months), it will have another 39%, this make a total of 78%. The remaining 22% estimate will be completed during mid of Jun. Give it a buffer of 1 or 2 months. It should be ready b4 september based on the initial progress.

 
October 6, 2008 at 8:23 PMUnknown

Hi Ree,
As a buyer, I hope your calculation will work ... what I hope for is that we will be able to have a Chinese New Year in VG by early 2010, that's the best !!! :-)

 
October 7, 2008 at 12:03 PMLee

Is VG hillside, city or seaview? How much is the reasonable price for a unit today? Is the calculation from previous comments still applicable.I am interested and would like to know where is the show unit and developer's office. Thanks!

You are right Sherly, your unit should be around 570K market value.

The overall progress around 40% complete. Fear not on the progress.

October 31, 2008 at 3:33 PMUnknown

i really wondering why all IJM project were so hot cake and all the properties they launch will be sapu bersih one. Or may be this is their strategy to bait buyer. Last time i also call in once in IJM sales office to request some info for my friend but the sale officer seem very arrogant. Since then i will never consider IJM properties. VG is different at least Ms Lim is very nice and she will try her best to explain to you whenever u have any query. This is what we wanted.

 
November 10, 2008 at 7:39 PMUnknown

how come the show unit building colour and the catalogue building colour differennt one??? Can VG explain to us. The catalogue colour shows more class but the on site the colour shows like 3 yo kid colouring le.

The colour is look like Perak Line low medium cost apartment (Sri Wangsa 1)!!!

 
November 11, 2008 at 10:07 AMUnknown

Wats prob with color? I think color on catalog plain yellow not nice.. Sometime we have no rite to choose color we like, some ppl dun care about color coz the more important is the quality.. If you dun like the color n feel tthat color cheap n ugly, i think you better buy landed lor coz you can paint your house use color that you like..

 
November 11, 2008 at 12:11 PMTik Liang

I m fine with the colour, it looks great. Anyway, the quality and progress are more important. Dont you guys agree?

 
November 11, 2008 at 3:43 PMUnknown

I am fine with the colour too but I am more concern on the low fence used for the balcony outside the master bedroom. Don't understand why we need a balcony there if we can't break the wall & make the master bedroom with another balcony. It is designed for us to put some green plants there???

 
November 11, 2008 at 4:29 PMandy

hi celine,
the colour in catalog isn't plain yellow, it's yellow and white!

from my point of view, the balcony in front of the master bedroom is mainly for us to put the air cond compressor unit le. Since they din reserved any space for us to put the unit so probably this is place tat we can put.

Chan,
You are definitely right on the air cond compressor placement as I can see two air cond pipe out from both the balcony included the one attached to the living room. However, do we need to have a balcony just for the air cond compressor, feel a bit wasted if we can't fully utilize it by converting it into an accessible balcoby like the one in the living room.

what is the price now?

there are more reference building around recently. therefore people are comparising with the new cuting edge architecture language...

End of the day, the interior plays more important role, we will see more interior rather than the exterior, right.

anyone with update from the interior?

Hi I am Eric, also 1 of the VG buyer. Any ideas where is the swimming pool located ? As far as I know, the swimming pool suppose to be located beneath when you look down from your living area balcony from west wing unit. Am I correct ? But now I actually seeing that there is no place to build swimming pool at all.

yes suppose the swimming pool on level 4 directly below west wing (directly below first apartment unit level 5). Furthermore there is no any starter bar from level 4 so how they going to construct the swimming pool?? can VG pls advise??

Do you all guys know that our Bank negara already reduce the BLR rate and most of the bank are taking this opportunity to reduce the BLR as well. Most of the bank had announced their BLR rate but AMBank still not yet announce le. Hopefully AMBank will follow also. Anyone getting your loan from AMBank??

I noticed the progress had been very slow recently, I really doubt that it can be completed by mid of 2009 :-(

Also, I hope that the recent landslide case will not impact this project like Ferringhi Height.
