Hi dear All,
Again, mostly our children’s selection of school often determines on our choice of location to reside as we would be taking out heaps of our hard earned money to buy/invest. Bayshore Condo is good although its management system needed to be upgraded .Their water billing system has always been expensive, we can’t figure the rationing reason behind it either. There was twice break in where lap top and camera gagets were being stolen, the guards fell asleep during their night shifts from my experience living there.At the Peak Condo, water leaking is a problem as seen stain on the ceiling,walls, spooky mysterious knocking on the glass panels at night too.Whistling sounds too, be it outside the glass panels or else beside your ears in the lift, both in Peak Condo n Peak Suite Apartment.But with prayers, this can be solved.
Thetoilet bowels are problem too.But the sea view is the most awesome view ever.
I personally feel to invest/live within Likas area is still the best in KK becausec of its short distance to all focal point be it in to the city or etc…In all, it just the management system needs to be checked occasionally to keep them on toe so to speak.1 Likas development should be good too.

HI,
It should be around RM50 psf. Depending on the location of the land, size, CL&NT, Land tenure and shape of the land. Happy Investing.

Having a visit to KK yesterday and really missed the flight. From 1 Borneo to KKIA took 1 hours and 15 minutes. It is really ridiculous! I think the traffic management must be improved. First, all the roundabouts shall change it to traffic light. Second, terminate the contract by Global Upline at Tj Aru and get the more competent contractor. As TPK the advisor of Global Upline already sue for bankruptcy.

CK Wong, I want to ask you a question since you are very knowledgeable.

With all these bad safety concerns like in Colonades Condominium,what can be done to ensure safety of people? Colonnades is not the only building unsafe in KK.

I visited one unit belonging to a friend in Colonades and I can’t believe what I’m seeing. A part of the concrete ceiling just fell and almost killed a child. Some pieces are over 12 inches. When I go there now I always look at the ceiling.

Is it DBKK or JKR or what authority that is involved here? Can’t depend on management as they will cover up to keep prices up.

I know it is the same problem in Queen E Hospital and government decided to vacate it. But what happens in private condos? Does someone have to die first like in Highland Towers in Kuala Lumpur?

Where can we report such a problem? No one can tell me. Even engineers. I think there are many buildings in KK in such condition.

Concerned mother, Don’t move to Colonnades. I stayed for for 5 years. Nice location but horrible condition – leaking pipes everywhere, falling ceiling, cracking on walls, floor, spoilt paintings and much more.

It won’t appreciate even though the owners ask for 500K. No one is buying. My friend who used to rent to me can’t sell even after a year. I moved into Likas condo and I’m happy.

HI,
Long term repair and maintaince will cost you more. Think twice. I personally believe the risk is higher over the long term. Happy Investing.

MY daughter is going to St Francis and I have been toying with idea to move to Colonades Condominium which is just opposite. I;m staying in Likas now. The prices are a bit high for an old condo but I can still accept that, as location is good. What worries me is reading about the bad condition and safety concerns. I don't want my investment to go down over the years. I may have to sell my Likas apartment which is slowly appreciating. Safety Concerns for Colonades Condominium
