Even Condos not marked for en-bloc are not very well maintained. A look at Condos at Tanjhong Rhu/Orchard Road belt/Bukit Timah/Upper Bukit Timah will reveal that. Your condo maybe different though.
Yes ofcourse there are those few that are in pristine condition. But those are amongst the few.
I have seen the condos there having tiles popping out, lifts taking ages to be maintained, toilets not in great shape with lots of unwanted visitors running around the toilets.
"I did not venture out of singland to the same crap here". So why are you complaining now? Signed with your eyes closed? OR do you think if you make a lot of noise the Township authorities will care?
Singaporeans are complaint kings and queens. Everyone knows that.
My argument = Opening bank book.
Where from does this logic initiate?
In the same coin as you called a comment "Cheap" can i also then effectively say your logic My argument = opening bank book cheap? Worse still your posts are cheap? What is Rm 546? About S$ 200 in a private township. You dun wan lights/nice roads etc? They have clearly indicated what the increase is for. And you know the cost of raw materials has been going up.
People pay upwards of Rm 1000 for condo maintenance in KL. Condo is a much smaller area compared to a large private township spread over acres and acres.
Maybe ur right... If they reveal their book to you ..... you would be wiser.
am almost neutral party here. Me thinks we all know maintenance is a component of monthly payout we are definitely committed to. I guess what Chillout is trying to say is the increase must be justified. Cannot swipe everything under the convenient excuse of increased costs. End of day transparency is the key. I have heard about some problems of title deed transfers in LF perhaps that sets of a alarm to be more cautious of the developer in general. Whether big money or small money, money is money. If the bank returns you only 99% of what you own even if its 100 dollars in 1 million, it is still money.
having said that I am also glad the developer is committed in making sure the overall feel of the whole area is not compromised and holds a certain air of dignity when one enters. i am very happy about the true double gating as well as segregation in the masterplan making sure the density is really low comparatively speaking. and am plenty hopeful about the future accessibility points and potential. have also made a very good friend out of one of the sales rep who's got a first class service all the way through and after.
Still I would take the developer to task if the money is taken and the promised does not materialize as I think it is only fair. =)
