Thanks for this high end property showroom review boss. Looking at the amount of money that i am making now , i will take your advice and just imagine staying in this property.
Thank you for such an in-depth review of this development. The level of detail by the developer is such a high level. Also, I appreciate you giving a balanced review - not just giving the bright side but giving all angles is important.
The architect is one of the most sought-after local architect firms that you can entrust as they always pay good attention to details to make sure your moeny well spent on areas that matter.
Was wondering when you will review this. Was heavily involved during the concept proposal for getting the KM approved. This is a good project and definitely worth to buy.
So far, I still like Veo more but this is close, I actually like the floor plan layout alot more and also each room has it's own bathroom with shower is a big PLUS. So its a tough decision better floor plan layout or the Veo's balcony looking over the side of the mountain.
Hahaha. You're right WP. Well it also depends on your lifestyle and work location. This is closer to the PJ and Veo is closer to KL. Also, this will be ready only in 3-4 years time while VEO is ready to move in haha. Thanks for sharing your thoughts yea:)
Hi, great in depth review as usual. But could you give some insights on the upcoming Exsim joint venture project with Mammoth on the Empire city project that also introduces many high rise residential condo? Do you think there's value in the newly introduced D series condo? Is it too dense for 5 condo there with the upcoming development?
i think this is the best unit i have seen so far from design point of view. just abit too far from kl . any other condo/apartments as good as this closer to kl?
I wonder how is this compared to other luxury condo like Park Regent in Desa Parkcity. Have you covered that Sean? Maybe it isn't an apple to apple comparison as the size of the project is slightly different.
Personally leased hold is not a big concern because hardly anybody will stay at one place for more than 20,30 years. Even so you still can renew lease. The problem i have is the no drop level at balcony and bathroom. Rain water will definitely spill into indoor when there is heavy rain, from my experience.
@@Adam-ut9nt precisely! Flushed level design doesn't work for tropical climate like Malaysia. The balcony may have been detailed with a gentle slope outward but wind driven rain water still seeps in.
@@iherng yes but once the drainage starts clogging with hair and whatnots with frequent usage, the water level will rise while showering. To avoid standing in dirty bathwater while showering, a higher wood platform was introduced by interior decorators to solve this dilemma for older built apartments. However noticed that the new higher end hotels nowadays have bathroom floors with a slanted angle for better drainage of the water. Did the designer used this method for the project? (thus able to have no level drop in the bathroom) Forgot to add earlier: enjoyed watching your reviews ; )
Incredible place, shows the difference between the regular "luxury" you get in 500k units vs real high-end luxury. Downside is, you will have mortgage payments of 10k :D Cannoooot.
Assuming that a normal Unit is about 3 Million Ringgits with accessories, I would be assuming that you need to spend monthly RM5k for Maintenance + Car Park + Electricity + Assessment's + plus other costs. Assuming a 5 year stay, you would have spend about RM300K ++ (around there) and move on after that.
very nice walk through as usual... love the project.. West sun aiyooooooooo. If not for west facing, sure give Grande a run for the money. Good effort to mitigate.
Yea, it's seriously a debate whether to face or not to face the golf course. But I really like how the architect address the issue. Thanks for watching Kenneth!
No it does not. Usually for high end properties, the buyers would prefer it to be bare so they can customize the space to their own preferences. For that cost estimation, it's pretty common for developers to spend a lot on their show unit. I think this unit is easily RM 500k - RM 700k.
@@iherng thanks Sean for the sharing. That would mean 2mil credit and 700k spare cash for the "aetas" life! Can't imagine how hard I need to work from now onwards... Heeeeheeeeheeee
Hi Sean, as this is just beside Grande, how’ll you see the potential dilution in value? I remember grande was at rm900psf two yrs back, seems like aetas is selling cheaper than that🤔 Enjoyed your videos, thanks for the great effort!
Both products felt different but I think the value is still within that range. We have to always look at the size of the unit. It's pretty rare we have a design with private lobby with proper 4 bedrooms. Thanks for watching Alex=)
Well, it's definitely not for rental returns. But in terms of future pricings, there are still room most probably as they are selling at the current market price within that area. Some projects are selling their products at future prices. Thanks for watching Jaspal!!
Well I guess there's nothing much to compare in terms of golf course views but I would consider the location instead. Golf course view apartment in KL versus Kajang versus Tropicana versus Kota permai for eg, the difference would still be the address :) Thanks for watching Chuan Yew!
Hi, just came across your video. I’ve been staying at condo for 10yrs+. There’s come many problems after staying in high rise condo at city area. No doubt, it is very convenient to go everywhere but, it is also jam everywhere. Now, we would like look for landed property, we checkout Kajang, Puchong, Kinrara, Bkt Jalil, Serdang…all are selling 1m above. The only we saw is at Cyberjaya. Which working area is Pch. What do you think about Cyberjaya area? In 10yrs times, will it be a mature township?
Well for Cyberjaya, it has all the right infrastructure but it just couldn't attract majority of the population. As terrible as they jam can be in other addresses, people prefer the jam over the infrastructure in Cyberjaya. Also, there has been a lot of apartments built across time for that address. But the poor response leads to high number of auction units. That being said, the landed unit are sold really well in Cyberjaya. If it's for ownstay, I think it's important that the current state of infrastructure is sufficient for the lifestyle of your family because no one could really foresee developments 10 years from now. I don't think we can imagine where we are 10 years from now. Is it reality or metaverse oriented?? Anyway, thanks for watching=)
MCT is infamous for being cheap and give low quality products for their project. All the showroom unit is fake with the actual handover bear no resemblance. Just look at all their past projects for past 3 years.
Well I can see that they particularly engaged a different contractor for this project. Hopefully that will change everything. We will re-review this when it's completed:)
They usually built their own projects, but they engaged third party contractors for this job instead. Hahaha. They are aware of that concern too=) Thanks for bringing that up Victor!
@@iherng Because being in Tropicana, ppl will tot d developer is Tropicana. Hopefully they are well informed. Buying a property in Malaysia, who is d developer is important as well. Not all developer are perfect, just how they treat their customer after VP. Thats important as well. Recently there is this EdgeProp property award. Choose from one of them, you have lessen your risk a lot.
Well.. I agree to the part of well informed. But I don't really agree on the awards. Every media platform has their own award, so which one should we follow. And most of them are just mere fund raising activities in my opinion. How could a project win awards before even fully constructed?
This encourage me to study and work harder (several part time+freelance) so I can move my family to atas place like this....
Let's work hard yea!!
😀😀😀
U can Stay anywhere in Malaysia ...work smart and not work hard
How much the price ya
What are you doing for part time n free lance ?
Thanks for this high end property showroom review boss. Looking at the amount of money that i am making now , i will take your advice and just imagine staying in this property.

Was wondering when you will review this. Was heavily involved during the concept proposal for getting the KM approved. This is a good project and definitely worth to buy.
Oowh really?? Then Ill need to invite you to my podcast dy Justin:)
Hoping for u to do a video about Lumi Tropicana...
Let me try to arrange my time yea lilktk=)

Wahhhhh... soo huge Apartment
Yes it is. And it's very well designed:)
another amazing video ! thanks Sean!
Glad you enjoyed it Harvey=)
For 2mio prefer freehold house....still huge overhang condo's.. Yes it's nice of course.
Actually along Persiaran Tropicana, the only place that will be jam is the traffic light at the Golf Club entrance. Other than that is ok
Thanks for sharing!!
Opposite is also always congested during morning/evening peak hours. (From Tropicana exiting to Ara Damansara and onto the subang airport)

Thanks for the detailed and insightful review. Could you kindly also do one for Allevia Mont Kiara? The new project by uem sunrise
Hmmm... Let me go check it out!!
Thanks for watching Joanna=)
Hi iherng, can you do an episode to review on project Bintang Residence @bukit jalil by LBS developer please
i think this is the best unit i have seen so far from design point of view. just abit too far from kl . any other condo/apartments as good as this closer to kl?
Can check out aetas seputeh
Great video! Good valuable information!
Thanks for watching Sundar!!
Been watching a few other Malaysian property channels, your is without doubt the best.
Wow!! That means a lot to me Gemmel. Thank you sooooooo much!!
Amazing video, Sean. Can you do a review on Ava Residence, Kiara Bay? Thanks.
I shall try to schedule it yea. Thanks for suggesting Alfred=)
Nice video full of information. Thanks!
Thanks for watching Imran!! I really appreciate it=)
Thanks for keeping the reviews coming! Sunway Mont soon?
Let me check the keys in my office hahaa=)
Thanks for watching as always Wai Hoe. I really appreciate it!!
@@iherng happy to support!

The problem i have is the no drop level at balcony and bathroom. Rain water will definitely spill into indoor when there is heavy rain, from my experience.
Instead of a drain, they designed a hidden version of it which is pretty innovative.
Anyway, thanks for sharing your take Adam!!
@@iherng It work if the rain flow on the floor. During heavy rain water spill on the glass door and strong wind blows the water indoor.
@@Adam-ut9nt precisely! Flushed level design doesn't work for tropical climate like Malaysia. The balcony may have been detailed with a gentle slope outward but wind driven rain water still seeps in.
3000sqft...fuhyoohh... monthly maintenance fees is not problem to owner...the name is Aetas (kayangan people 😅)
I guess you're right. Petrol consumption shouldn't be a concern for race car owners hahaha=)
Thanks for watching Raffles!!
no level drop in bathroom isnt it risky if the place is flooded?
It's a very difficult detail to design but it's definitely a great initiative to the users:)

Hey, awesome work on introducing the property. Am interested in doing something similar for my project.
Nice!! Thanks for watching Ckiang:)

Hi, Sean what do you think of the JL 99 group new project 99 residence?? Hoping for u to do a video
Haven't gone the opportunity to review it yet. Let me see what I can do. Thanks for suggesting Chong Hann=)

Maintenance fee how much eh? All unit very big like that. 😅
Erm, do check with the team yea. *I was distracted hahahhaa=)
its 0.45 psf including sinking fund, if not mistaken.
Is it come with fully furnished unit? How much would be the estimate for renovation like the video?
No it does not. Usually for high end properties, the buyers would prefer it to be bare so they can customize the space to their own preferences.
For that cost estimation, it's pretty common for developers to spend a lot on their show unit. I think this unit is easily RM 500k - RM 700k.

@@iherng thanks for the reply bro! I’ve been searching for units with 4 bedrooms and above. It’s difficult to get an ideal one😞
The name of the project is already ‘Atas’
Hahahaha!! Im not sure whether is it intentional but hahahahaah:)
Thanks for watching!
Would any of these condos aetas , jendela , etc have any investment value
Well, it's definitely not for rental returns. But in terms of future pricings, there are still room most probably as they are selling at the current market price within that area. Some projects are selling their products at future prices.
Thanks for watching Jaspal!!
Appreciate if u can do one video for M arisa and share together with that area advise.
if golf course view is the priority, how would it fare against Jendela KLGCC and Impression U-Thant RSGC?
Well I guess there's nothing much to compare in terms of golf course views but I would consider the location instead. Golf course view apartment in KL versus Kajang versus Tropicana versus Kota permai for eg, the difference would still be the address :)

Aetas = Atas 🤪
Hahahaha. My initial thoughts too:)
Thanks for watching Shane!!
Good review but your camera work gives me a headache!
Let me try to work on it. Thanks for watching 😁
Noice
Thanks for watching Lawrence=)
The leasehold kinda spoils it a bit for me.
Yea, but it's common for that area. Thanks for watching Laurence=)
Ah shit it's showroom again, not actual tour, disappointed -.-"
Thanks for watching. Sorry to disappoint.
what do u think about tropicana grande vs aetas ?
Starting price from 1.8m😂😂
Like the design but too big, it worth for big family only
Exactly! Well there are medium sized to smaller units along the same street if you want to=)
Hahaha do you say principal bedroom because you didn’t want to say “masturbate” room?
maid live better than me
Hahahahahahahahahahahahah!!
MCT? bad repo owh...
hmmm.....
They usually built their own projects, but they engaged third party contractors for this job instead. Hahaha. They are aware of that concern too=)
Thanks for bringing that up Victor!
