Loo,

really? when u get the update info? i was told by the sale person last few week, they said the master room is not with the sliding door but with normal "open" windows, which mean u cannot walk out the master rooms' "balcony"..its specific for the aircond's motor..how true is that?

 
September 29, 2009 at 10:44 AMK-ER6F

Actually when i buy, i din ask anything also about the tiling or electircal thing.. haha.. just when go into the showroom feel nice and the price is suitable to me and make the purchase.

And last week i went there again to ask for more thing and the sales girl tell me all type of layout also will change to sliding door for master bedroom and there will be a small balcony there , can someone go and clarify again ??.. but this week only i will sign the S&P

 
September 29, 2009 at 12:57 PMK-ER6F

what i saw in catalog, only A,B and C got only...

by the way..Gan and loo..which bank do u all take?
what is the BLR the bank offer?
im pending the bank's approval now...

 
October 2, 2009 at 10:47 AMK-ER6F

Hi soon

Actually i'm refering to D-936sf.. but in here i post as E & F according to the layout post in this website. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

i'm taking OCBC loan which 5.5% BLR -2.2% for whole life.. i does not prefer CIMB bcoz 2-5 year -2.3% but remember that Reka INDAH will bear interest for us until 30 month ... then after 5 year.. is only - 2.0% which end up u need to find mortgage plan... i din try public bank as the agent doesn't approach me

October 5, 2009 at 5:57 PMRRR

Gan Chin Seng..
Ur msn xx84.. you so young n rich arr : )
Pls do add me.. RRR (gimyew@hotmail.com)

Hey Loo.. the developer sale guy really "BHE KI"
First, regarding the maintenance fees..
they had feedback tht RM0.18 per sqft..
never add behind just for first 3 years..

They seem like no standard lar.. like pasar malam selling cake..
As a developer should hv standard.. right..!!
Mana boleh " luan-luan " say words..

Lastly, regarding the bank interest..
i think everyone also get -2.2% upon BLR..

 
October 5, 2009 at 6:24 PMCheok

RRR,
yup the MF is 0.18/sf for 1st 3yr. hehe... but in this 1st 3yrs are we able to stay there? :p
Regarding the bank interest i think got diff.
just now OCBC called me and say is BLR-2.0 for 1st 5yrs. then cont is -2.2%

 
October 5, 2009 at 6:39 PMRRR

Guy, do you aware tht the latest modern condo..
Above the peak of the building have lighting..!!
Just like they put the spot light on top of the building.. to make it shine at the night.. to make ppl amaze of the building, ppl can notice the building from far..
Look modern, expensive, class n nice..

e.g. Palm Palladium, Regency Heights,
I-Regency

Do you think Reka Indah able to follow or do better on our coming BOULEVARD 6 stars condo..?

 
October 5, 2009 at 6:41 PMRRR

Cheok.. tht why i say Reka Indah should learn..
They should think first before speak or feedback anything to us as a customer..

 
October 5, 2009 at 9:16 PMsoon

hi Cheok,
i booked type D as well..south wings 13floor..
you confirmed type D got balcony aR?..i remember the sale girl said the balcony cannot walk out one wo..@_@

 
October 5, 2009 at 9:29 PMCheok

yes, this afternoon i go ask the sale girl she said type D also got small balcony at master room. thy change the layout abit. The maindoor will move in abit.

RRR,

October 5, 2009 at 10:37 PMGan Chin Seng

Reply RRR,
haha, when you meet up with me then you will notice me not 84 one... at least 76 one... :)

Cheok,
Welcome to the big family... :) me East Wing 28th Floor... :)

Loo,
We are same wing... :)

Btw, seriously RID should give proper training to the sales person first before getting them out to serve the customer. I also had the same problem like you all... Sales Girl A told me 1, Sales Girl B told me 2 at the end I still refer back to another Sales Girl which I believe that she is the senior there...

As for the MF, I seriouly did not get any info on it... RM0.18 psqf for first 3 years? SPA did not stated it also... I think we all should gather up and meet up with them directly...

Anyone with me? :)

October 17, 2009 at 3:53 PMCheok

guys, i withdraw this project jor... cant be neighbour jor. :(

 
October 18, 2009 at 10:39 PMGan Chin Seng

Cheok,

Why?

Sorry guys, just back from holiday... :)

 
October 19, 2009 at 8:59 AMCheok

ermm my main reason is the entrance from mainroad is too small some more is single lane. And when traffic jam that time the resident of BL and BLVD will so so hard go out. Just imagine when Gaint, Melody and All Session Park is done... it was around 2000unit extra (include BL and BLVD) at that row....( u know la, penang ppl see yellow light d and infront is jam oso wil drive the car and block in the middle of the road....)
If the IN/OUT design is nice nice i think i wil not withdraw... This is what i think lah....
Actually i like the BLVD design.

 
October 19, 2009 at 10:58 PMUnknown

October 26, 2009 at 7:27 PMUnknown

Hi Loo,
Thx.
Hi Gan,
Which bank offered you that package?

BB-

 
October 26, 2009 at 8:38 PMK-ER6F

Reply BB...

Just review my bank offer letter..
1st year (12month) - 0%interest
2-5 Year (48month) - 2.0% interest
thereafter - 2.3%

**** 1st 30 months is bear by developer, so that mean i only pay -2.0% for 30 month and thereafter till end is -2.3%

by the way , u buying which unit ?? and which type ??
can add me in my msn as we soon going to neighbour ?? khengs2003@hotmail.com

 
October 28, 2009 at 12:10 AMUnknown

Hi Loo,

M buying type D. OCBC offer me -2.2% thereafter. r u sure yours is -2.3% thereafter? just to confirm.

WK,
How bout ur bank loan package?

Gan,
Your package is frm which bank?

 
October 28, 2009 at 9:34 AMGan Chin Seng

Well, mine one is May****...

Loo,

Wah, yours one so high ar? BLR - 2.3%, sure you are very good payer... :P hehe...

 
October 28, 2009 at 11:53 AMK-ER6F

reply Gan

erm... below is wat i copy from the OCBC Loan Offer letter

(a) 0% pa on daily rests for the first one (1) year from the date of the first drawdown OR until 30-Sep-2010, whichever is the earlier ("the First Year");

(b) BLR - 2% pa on daily rests for the next (4) years;

(c) thereafter at BLR - 2.3% pa on daily rests until fully settled ("the Subsequent Years")

I'm taking OCBC due to reason due to
1st 30 months is bear by developer, so that mean i only pay -2.0% for 30 month and thereafter till end is -2.3%

the disadvantage is i have to pay more 2% for 30 month or till 5th year

the advantages is the 6th year is -2.3%


reply BB ,

why OCBC offer u 2.2% thereafter only ?? y different from my package ??

November 6, 2009 at 9:26 PMGan Chin Seng

Chin,

touch wooooodddddsssssss....
for your information... this is my very first house also... :)

I agree with you, hope that RID will put full effort for their first CONDO in Penang island.

Somehow, I was told by a resident of BLG that RID did not really make the things happen. and that is why I'm gathering all the BLVD buyers to sit down all together to discuss how this could be prevent.

Next week friday night we are planning to visits BLG residents directly to understand more about their current situation. So that we can gain knowledge from them to prevent this happening to us and in the mean time we BLVD, BLA and BLG residents fight together to improved the situations such as setting up the Poles at the exit and entry at BL traffic lights.

I would believe that, if any of RID ppl here reading at this forum. I would like to tell them that MAKE US PROUD with your very first CONDO project in Penang island and I can said that it will impressed alot alot of buyers and investors on RID if their very first CONDO project is a success with all the BLVD, BLA and BLG residents talking to others ppl about the pros of RID and not the cons. :)


************************************************
To Reka Indah Development and RID Board of Directors,

please make us very proud of your very first own CONDO project in Penang island. :)

Since this is your first CONDO project in Penang island, unlike IJM where their projects are selling like hot cake because of their well known name. If you want to become like IJM, please show to us and all others with this BLVD project that you can compete with others developers also.

With the SUCCESS of your very first CONDO project in Penang Island. I'm very sure, your up coming project, future project will be selling like HOT CAKE as IJM does.
*************************************************

Cheers... :)

 
November 7, 2009 at 9:44 PMK-ER6F

Hi all

Just now i go to collect the stamped copy d....
not only that , they also do give me the Boulevard Umbrella .. look nice with good quality also
Do u guy get the umbrella ??

 
November 9, 2009 at 3:41 PMUnknown

Aside to Chin..,
The previous complaint was to make the RID management open their ear on the market feedback..
Least but not less, they did revise the MF fees, upgrade the house structure, upgrade their
website to become more fancy and so on..
It shown that RID MANAGEMENT did take serious on their FIRST CONDO "BLVD" project..

No doubt, RID was a NEW comer in these RED SEA.. Everyone knew well IJM, BELLVIEW..
But, who is RID..?? What is RID if compare with IJM and BELLVIEW..

My thought, RID shouldn't ONLY think of profitable biz, they will need to use up
these project as their base to enhance their ORGANIZATION name, by build us a
SUPER CONDO, which equip with HI-TECH facilities, breathtaking panoramic garden,
high-class lighting and etc.

Let other competitor know tht RID also stand and able to build a GOOD CONDO..
not ONLY a whole life second contractor for OTHER GIANT DEVELOPER..
Let other buyer say tht " RID project sure good, worth to buy if don’t buy sure very dumb "

You know, I also believe that ONE DAY ppl will BERATUR like buying a konsert ticket
for all BLVD coming project.. : P

Again.. chances, support and trust has been given by us as the "BLVD" buyer..
Now just lack of BLVD ACTION..
If Malaysia Boleh, I think RID also BOLEH..



Aside to GAN and other future neighbours..
So soli to say tht unable to join the coming Friday gathering due to biz trip..
Looking forward to meet you all on next gathering..
Cheers to our Z-Generation committee

 
November 9, 2009 at 4:11 PMUnknown

Dear Gan and others..,
Just to share on previous my survey on BL HILL and BL Garden issue.. may be right and may be wrong..

Under Traffic Upgrade Topic:-

1) RID management will need to seek for goverment approval as to change the trafic light squence in front of the entrance to BL AVENUE side..
If the main T junction along that link to Lorong Batu Lanchang become GREEN, the trafic light in the entrance to BL Avenue should be GREEN as well..

2) It wil be much better if RID management able to set up additional street pole at the trafic from Farlim to Jln Thean Teik side as to prevent other car slot in



Under Structure Upgrade Topic :-

1) The staircase area, RID previously use the metal frame, rather than normal glass window..
Metal frame look DARK.. luckily RID had changed to Glass Window -> Wil be more light coming from outside.. GOOD :P

2) On the walking area in BL Garden the two concrete fench was too high.. if not mistaken was 7 feet.. so dark.. BLVD feedback tht they has noticed on it and wil change to 5 feet for BLVD.. GOOD :P


Thanks!!

Hi all my future BLVD neighbours,

Nice to meet u all here.
I just signed my SPA last Saturday,
bought a type D unit at South Wing.
Do u guys have any idea whether the Belleview apartments are going to be built close to our towers in future?
Ken

 
November 10, 2009 at 10:01 AMUnknown

RRR & Future Neighbours,

What the great updated from RRR!!
If all the upgrades system in placed, i believed that the BLVD will become the great place to stay in...

Ron

 
November 10, 2009 at 1:32 PMUnknown

Hi jQ,

Would you mind to share what is the price of your unit (which floor?) as of the date you signed the SPA? Any idea how many units still left?

I am still struggling whether buy a unit in BLVD or wait until All Seasons Park launching.

 
November 10, 2009 at 11:01 PMjQ

Hi Danny,

My unit is at level 14, price is RM273,400, before discount. I took the last unit of South Wing Type D. Not sure how many unit left, but saw not many left for South Wing, quite a few left for the "garden view" of East Wing, i think maybe due to the direction of facing to the west.
Ya, u can just call up the show gallery and ask la.

Ohya, All Seasons Park looks nice too, but i only knew about it after i made decision of taking up BLVD, and one thing, i like the location of BLVD, not too deep into Farlim, it's nice that it's at the entrance of Lebuhraya Thean Teik - no need to suffer too long TRAFFIC JAM~

 
November 11, 2009 at 10:06 AMUnknown

Hi, Do the BLVD got any Beautiful lobby or waiting area for the guest while waiting for the BLVD's owner? If got then should be a very nice Condo.....hehhe...

Yes agree with Desmond. In fact this is my concern also.This can be proved by belleview projects, their lobby are grand and nice.

Hi jQ,

U get southwing lv14 at rm273k+? =.= is it BLVD decrease the unit price? B4 i cancel my booking, i get my unit with rm278k+ at lv14 eastwing...
Anyway good deal oso.... can save more 5k ;p

 
November 22, 2009 at 10:38 PMK-ER6F

Hi Cheok ,

I believe that u take that is the cornet unit and it is more expensive bcoz the bedroom 3 window is face to outside and also the drying area also facing outside so that u can dry ur clothes at there compare to those center unit which our bedroom 3 and drying area is facing the corridor. Actually very hard for us to dry our cloth which is facing the corridor =="
After the S&P, i only realise this point only..
SIGH !!!! =="
1st time buying house ma , so didn't think of this ... hahahahaha


Best Regards

March 16, 2010 at 12:19 AMAnonymous

traffic is surely a concern.. grave, personally i really dun mind...
which unit have you booked?

 
March 16, 2010 at 9:00 AMGan Chin Seng

Reply Wei Chin,

You can refer back to previous post where all people commented about BLVD.

For me is easy, where can you find a condominium with 11ft high ceiling, 2 cover car park, almost full facilities, safer security concern (Mat Rempit, Robbery and etc), built on a solid rock hill, at the reasonable price and etc...

Refer to older post on and you will have clear mind to it...

 
March 16, 2010 at 11:00 AMUnknown

True also... just my Gf keep complain about the grave... haha... i also personally don't mind...
i booked the type A 10th East Wings...

 
March 16, 2010 at 11:31 AMAnonymous

oh East wing, exactly facing the grave, no wonder your GF complaining. but 10th floor should be blocked by the hill right?

should be around 380k also?

when you plan to sign S&P ?

 
March 16, 2010 at 11:50 AMUnknown

not sign yet... still considering... but i already book for 3k... can i get back the money if i change my mind right?

 
March 16, 2010 at 2:43 PMAnonymous

April 10, 2010 at 9:37 PMTan

hi
i am a buyer also
i went to collect my s&p today
heard the SA told me that, they will not use sand brick in this project anymore
they will use the wall that is similiar to central park...
is this a good or bad news to us

 
April 10, 2010 at 10:41 PMGan Chin Seng

Hi Tan,

Any reason they don wan to use sand brick?

 
April 11, 2010 at 12:36 PMTan

they told me that they want to speed up the process
n i feel that using this precast concrete they can reduce their cost
they also mention using this technique we cant simply hack the wall anymore

 
April 11, 2010 at 10:21 PMKau Teik

Hi All,

May I know something from you guy about BLVD? I plan to get one unit types A which located at East Wing, Can I know the view is that facing to grave directly? If yes, is that possible the "grave-view" will be unclear if the unit is at medium floor? If not, What about South Wing's view? I went thru the sales gallery today and the SA show me the view from BLVD to Island Green/Georgetown. Now, I am not sure whether should I choose East Wing or South Wing. Can anyone advice? thank in advance. (will be BLVD family soon:D)

 
April 11, 2010 at 10:50 PMGan Chin Seng

Hi Kau Teik,

I also went to the sales gallery today. :)
For my opinion, as long as you are above 10th floor, i believe that you won't be able to seen clearly. Unless you use telescope. :D jkjk.

Don't forget that, BLVD is built on the top of the hill, so unless you purposely head down then you will see the graveyard.

Just my 2 cents. ;)
Cheers and welcome to the family... :)

 
April 11, 2010 at 11:19 PMK-ER6F

Advantages of precast concrete:
1) Rapid construction on site
2) High quality because of the controlled conditions in the factory
3) Prestressing is easily done which can reduce the size and number of the structural members.

Disadvantages of precast concrete:
1) Because panel size is limited, precast concrete can not be used for two-way structural systems.
2) Economics of scale demand regularly shaped buildings (an example of this is Burnside Hall).
3) Need for repetition of forms will affect building design.
4) Joints between panels are often expensive and complicated.
5) Skilled workmanship is required in the application of the panel on site.
6) Cranes are required to lift panels.

so is the precast concrete is good or not ==" can anybody answer this

 
April 11, 2010 at 11:50 PMKau Teik

Chin Seng,

Thank for your advice. What you mean by above 10th floor? The lower floor not start from 10th floor(calculated include carpark)? Mean every floor will not see graveyard clearly? haha!!!

 
April 11, 2010 at 11:51 PMannooi

Dear all,

The outer ring road actually connected to the 2nd Penang bridge which also as the alternative road for this condo in future. Please refer to this web side for more details.

http://onthemove.penang.gov.my/proj_porr.htm

For the precast concrete and sand brick, as per the information from the developer that there are mix of using the the precast concrete and bricks for the building.

 
April 12, 2010 at 7:10 AMK-ER6F

Hi Ann

I thought the government already cancel the plan for the PORR. If they continue the plan ... dont know when they start and dont know how long it will take ... as u see 2nd penang bridge also delay so many year and still no improvement at all

Thanks

E-22-3A was the unit that I considered last time, it's abit too expensive to me so I decided to switch to type C. (But I love the way they design the "L" shape balcony)

 
May 20, 2010 at 8:01 PMGan Chin Seng

For me, go for higher floor... :) (if you are not scare of height)

July 30, 2010 at 8:15 AMUnknown

Samantha,

The developer still have some units left. It's cheaper to get it from developer than subsale units

 
August 6, 2010 at 1:42 AMUnknown

Dear All,

I just booked one unit there, it's 28th floor, 1195 sq.ft, is it still worth buying now since the price has gone up so high?

Anybody can advise? Thx

 
August 6, 2010 at 10:07 AMAnonymous

i thoought 1195 alrady sold out?
your unit facing which side?

 
August 6, 2010 at 2:42 PMUnknown

Hi sj2008,

Only a good investment the price of it will continue to rise, it is clearly a good sign that case. Like buying market shares, dun we always go for healthy and price climbing stocks? Of course, it need some evaluation in terms of percentage increase to decide whether it is worth it or not.

just to share. cheers.

 
August 8, 2010 at 11:19 AMUnknown

Hi Ong,

February 10, 2011 at 3:01 PMDexter

Hi Tan,

May I know what do you mean by "Boulevard New Show Unit on actual size"?
Thank you.

 
February 12, 2011 at 12:30 PMUnknown

Hi all

Actually, at the current time RID had set up the showroom on the building itself...I think that what Tan meant by saying "on actual size" because sometimes showroom being set up using sand block rather than use bricks...

For me, the new showroom really nice fit for the price, I've been investing on the property in Penang, quite a competitive market price throughout Penang.

 
February 12, 2011 at 6:39 PMteo

ya, the show unit at 10th floor, u can see RID workmanship are good, and the view are superb.

 
February 16, 2011 at 11:28 AMDexter

Oh yes. I visited the new showroom, seems like the materials and tiles they used are nice and good quality. I love the door and tiles that they provide, which we do not need to change much in the future. Very nice showroom and nice view from there! Add on for this project: State government has already announced their traffic improvement plans on this area! What a news for Boulevard Condo!!

 
February 16, 2011 at 4:43 PMTan
