I actually do like NI and did consider the semi-D which cost abot 700k some time back. The "Lemanz" in the website is not me, btw. Yes a site visit is the best. It looks like i am outdated about NI already... there is an increase in security fee for Phase 2A residents recently, from RM50 to RM70. They also manage to squeeze out some money to hire a full time cleaner to sweep the precinct, because town council only cuts the grass like once a month. A handful of residents refused to pay for the security fees even before the increase. At Kiara Hills a short distance away, they ended the security service without a new contractor. Hence a very real consideration if you stay at a mixed development is, fellow residents might be resistance to pay the common fund which could render running the place difficult.
The committee at such development usually would register itself, but my understanding is it does not have legal right to compel residents who refused to pay. This is unlike a condo in SG which is governed by Strata Act where the outstanding fees stays with the property and can't run away. Therefore as far as possible avoid development with a high mix of single storeys or low cost units (disclaimer: i am not saying poor people will not pay, or single storey owners are poor people, i am just saying this is the best gauge
