Ya, moreover the whole area here will be recognized as high-end properties neighbourhood already because of Bayswater, Platino, Pearl Regency, and now Vertiq all together.

I heard that they will further reclaim the land opposite e-Gate in THE LIGHT project to build their commercial in Phase 2? if your holding power of the unit is there and maintain your unit well, you can also rent it

It is a different concept, you should visit the sales office to find out. Per sqft price also more expensive than Platino :)

Hi Anglo Wax,

Why? Because in Penang, once a new project gets the OC, owners would start to resell the units at a 25% mark-up to original developer price. At least that has been the trend in the past few years (moving forward dunno lah). Sommo IJM offers interest free during construction lah, 10:90 scheme lah, rebates lah (to make it very easy and "safe" for speculators to

Why Vertiq when you can get bayswater, maritime, summerplace at cheaper RM/ft2?

Anyone share his opinion?

You guys are crazy , rm550 per sq feet??

Look, Pearl Regency which is next to Vertiq also selling at RM550/psf which includes furnishing and has a much lower density compared to Vertiq. Pearl Regency have better view compared to Vertiq. However, Vertiq provides 2 cp.

The units at Pearl Regency are larger hence the unit is more expensive.

I still don't think RM550/psf is worth it. Maybe they got some rebate

Hi Kenny,

Since you are interested in Vertiq, the first thing you might want to find out is how much is a buyer willing to fork out for it.

Now, to link Vertiq to the million-ringgit-property report, Platino would first come to my mind, as there were many units asking for RM1 million and above, and it's located just next to Vertiq.

So let's go to the

Hi Kenny,

Rather than hear/say, pls find the link below to the latest report by our land office (up to end of June 2011) for properties changed hands costing > 1 mil Ringgit. After reading, we might be able to discuss our observations..:)

Hi Condomana,

Thanks for your input. At $550/sqft, maybe the appreciation will not be much upon completion. I am planning for investment.
Fiera Vista is selling at $380/sqft. Maybe appreciation possibility higher?

2012-02-07T15:12:54.137+08:00

Hi Kenny,

I am not a sifu, but feel that RM550/sqft is reasonable in today's market for a new condo in a decent location. Any new project in that area would probably cost you RM500-RM700/sqft. Platino is hovering around RM450/sqft, you should seriously look at that, unless you really don't like that project (by IJM too and it's only a stone's throw away from Vertiq). If

2012-02-07T11:10:44.495+08:00

What do you guys think, at $550/sqft any more appreciation possible?
Can't make up my mind if I should get one.. any advise from the sifus out there?

Singapore has introduced 10% additional stamp duty for foreigners buying spore property, and barred developers from absorbing loan interest during construction period. I doubt Malaysian gov will do anything. GLCs like Sime Darby, PNB have been buying up major developers.

Hi property guy,

Oh, not trying to scare anyone lah, just trying to show that governments elsewhere are "proactively working" to cut down speculation, and what has our government done?...:)...and by the way, it's just a piece of business news from Bloomberg. Is Bloomberg trying to scare people? What's their intention?...:)

Indeed Roman, I am betting at RM500 psf.

Anyway, my point is if they want to sell to local Penangites of the mear motals they can sell the units not facing the sea at RM400.

I am looking at the picture of the new tower and it looks like a one bedroom apartment for 1044 sf.

Anyway, wait and see...
