According to the sales personnel. On the 19th Dec. The showroom might be ready for viewing. At the moment, only the invited guests by the boss's close friends know about the showroom.

 
  December 21, 2008 9:16 PM Anonymous said...

I went to see the showroom. 6 units per floor. Around RM400/sq ft. Unit 5 is by far the best unit. Prices are unexpectedly reasonable given the good location and their solid reputation.

Possible that developer will drop price to stimulate the sales of Fettes?

 
  July 1, 2009 3:24 PM Lim said...

am interested in the studio. is it a good buy? i intend to buy for rental or 2nd home. i'm comparing between this project and tanjung park. 1 bedroom vs 3bedroom. or should i buy landed in sg ara, SP Setia? any advise? by the way, i'm not buying for own stay.

 
  July 6, 2009 12:17 AM Hsiens said...

Hi Lim, you are staying alone or with family?

 
  July 6, 2009 1:39 PM Lim said...

Hsiens,

with family. i plan to rent out the hse for now. not sure how is the demand for 1 bedroom studio.

 
  July 8, 2009 9:06 AM Hsiens said...

Lim, is the studio sufficient for you and your family? As i know there are still some studio units left.

 
  July 8, 2009 10:55 AM Lim said...

Hsiens,

my budget is around 400k. i plan to buy for rental as of now and keep it for future retirement home. preferably near gurney or tanjung tokong area. not batu ferringhi. do u have any proposal? or no way to get such price condo besides tanjung park and gurney park?

 
  July 8, 2009 10:56 AM Lim said...

Hsiens,

only left few units with better view. the rest are facing car park. just like E&O suites. all car park facing. selling at 525k.

 
  July 8, 2009 2:02 PM Hsiens said...

hi,

i see... 400k investment to collect for rental, there are a lot of other places out there but if considering keeping for future retirement, a good view is a must...

 
  July 12, 2009 1:58 PM Citysleeker said...

Lim -

Suggest you take a look at The Brezza. It is just right in front of Fettes Res. As it is priced as a leasehold development (though convertible to freehold anytime soon), it will offer great rental yields.

 
  July 14, 2009 1:29 PM Lim said...

Citysleeker,

I know Brezza is cheap for this kind of location. But i don't like to invest in leasehold property. by the way, r u sure they can convert to freehold? est when? what's was the price when they were having soft launch? and what's the price now?

 
  July 14, 2009 3:03 PM Hsiens said...

i went to see Brezza after viewing Fettes Residence, you feel the difference ... :)

 
  July 14, 2009 4:23 PM Citysleeker said...

Lim -

Suggest you drop by UDA's office at Prima Tanjung (GF). They will answer all your questions. I guess it is best you hear directly from the horse's mouth.

 
  July 14, 2009 4:25 PM Citysleeker said...

Hsiens -

The Brezza is going for RM300+ psf and Fettes about RM500+ psf for the better facing. The former is in a better location compared to the latter. Am not condemning Fettes but just look at the surrounding areas.

 
  July 14, 2009 4:33 PM Lim said...

is there any showroom for brezza? what's the density?

 
  July 14, 2009 4:33 PM Hsiens said...

we pay peanut and we will only get monkey... : )

dont know y i dont have good feelings for lease hold properties.

so sleeker have you heard of seri tanjung pinang is launching new terres at 1.1 mil? Is that true?

Tanjung Tokong has a TESCO coming up?

 
  July 14, 2009 5:12 PM Citysleeker said...

Hsiens -

The entire side of housing from UDA to Tanj Pinang is slated to be freehold.

Part of the deal UDA had with govt is to convert the leasehold title to freehold eventually. I heard it has been approved and now just pending for UDA to settle the payment. If you ask UDA, they will tell you the full story.

Yes! Am aware of the new terraces at Tanj Pinang. All sold out within a morning. Intermediate starts from RM1.1mil and sea fronting corner unit sold in a ballot for a cool RM2.9mil. Amazing isn't it? This place is slowly but definitely turning into a playground for the well to do.

E&O has sold a plot of land with building to Tesco but this project is delayed for the time being as Tesco is requesting for a later opening. It will be there eventually.

Lim -

go to

http://www.apartment-penang.com/2008/01/brezza.html

not sure if the showflat is ready yet. there is supposed to be one soon in actual site.

 
  July 15, 2009 5:44 PM Hsiens said...

hi sleeker, thanks for the info. I am still prefer confirmed free hold land and the trust of IOI Prop... wish me luck... i am buying 1 units at Fettes Residence.

 
  July 15, 2009 6:10 PM Lim said...

hsiens,

i agree with u. i also prefer confirm freehold land. did u buy the 2400sq ft? they have done away the free MOT package. which i have missed 8k++ promotion. they will increase the price in 24 jul. i have not purchased any yet cause studio is not so practical, although the concept is nice. i think i should swith to 3 rooms condo eventhough i will use it as weekend stay. the price 800k-900k for tanjung tokong area. i also considering gurney area. by the way, what's the assessment for tanjung and gurney area?

 
  July 16, 2009 9:18 AM Hsiens said...

Hi Lim,

800-900k at Gurney, we can only get either a lease hold or a super old condo. 1 of the reason that I picked up fettes residence is because it is new and room of price appreciation is still there.

You are using for weekend stay? Ermm... You are not malaysian?

 
  July 16, 2009 9:46 AM Lim said...

u r right. pg1 is around 700k ++ to 800k but old building. i prefer to invest in something which i can use it when i need it in future. i don't want to invest in something which i can only rent out but i don't like to stay there. yes, i am malaysian.

 
  July 16, 2009 9:52 AM Hsiens said...

so... come and be my neighbour :)

 
  July 19, 2009 12:10 AM Faryna said...

Can see that FR is gonna be a good place to stay.

 
  July 24, 2009 10:31 PM Lim said...

i heard they r going to increase the price effective 24jul. is it true? how many %?

 
  August 22, 2009 12:23 AM angeline said...

People at this side very calm and write nicely. (Unlike some of the side I visited). Hee.. I presume if you buy property Fettes are friendly neighbours. Anyway if you happen to look for Flexi Housing loan don't forget to call me at 019-4721704 or email to kooieng.quah@cimb.com.

 
  August 22, 2009 9:43 PM Lim said...

I'm looking into type 2B and 3A. Any comment on this 2 units?

How about type 5B and 4A, does the unit has cemetery view from the bedroom?

Any advise on the best unit to choose?

 
  August 25, 2009 12:02 PM Sue said...

Are there any sea view units left. If so,which of the above floor plan would that be and how much are they? When will the project be completed? Am a genuine buyer. Any info and advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

 
  August 28, 2009 5:10 PM Hsiens said...

Hi Lim and Sue

I think type B unit 2 & 5 is good but unit 5 already sold out.

Reason being is that it is corner unit (more sun light emmited into the house) and balcony & some of the room has sea view.

I think we wont notice the cemetery and it will be blocked by various of buildings and the view of the mountain is nice.

 
  August 31, 2009 2:05 PM Sue said...

Thanks Hsien for your info. Do you work for IOI or are you an agent? I'm interested in getting more information especially about available units, on which floor, sea view, how much and payment schedule. I'm finding it difficult to get info from the company. By the way, I have seen the showroom in January. Is it Type A? I live overseas. Any info from you would be much appreciated. Thanks.

 
  August 31, 2009 4:48 PM Hsiens said...

hi Sue,

I am just a buyer. what kind of information that you need? Understand that the office only serve people who walk in. But i think it is still ok that u can ask them to fax some details to you as well.

 
  August 31, 2009 9:38 PM Sue said...

Thanks Hsien for volunteering info. I just want to know whether there are any sea view units left and on which floor and how much? I understand that the higher you go, the more you pay. Type A looks good if it's the same as the show room. I think I might have to put all these enquiries off until I get to Penang early next year. By then, all the units may be sold. So be it!

 
  September 20, 2009 10:32 AM Michelle said...

Went to see the show unit yesterday, I personally like unit 1, it's quieter and the kithen is brighter...

 
  October 14, 2009 5:45 PM chew said...

The entry and the exit from this condo is only via the Tanjong Tokong main road.
This is very inconvenient.

 
  October 22, 2009 10:30 PM Hsiens said...

went to the sales office (which will be the entry/exit in future) more than 20 times, never felt inconvenient... but i feel very convenient because it is near to shops and shopping complex, and there are more shop lots coming up. further more, in that area, there are many nice "hidden" restaurant :)

 
  October 26, 2009 10:50 AM Michelle said...

The lower floors of unit 3 & 4 are still available, guess they are too big, i.e. around 2300sf and the price is > RM900K

 
  November 3, 2009 7:46 PM Catherine said...

Can anyone advise me how much the maintenance fee psf?

 
  November 4, 2009 9:16 AM Hsiens said...

RM400 per month, all units same price.

 
  November 4, 2009 1:01 PM Catherine said...
