It not tell you the size of each unit in his development.
I read the article as well and it does not say anywhere that the offered price will be 'less than 1000 psf'. The exact words are 'will be offered to them at prices equivalent to about RM 1000 psf'. The 'them' being 'directors and business associates of companies related to billionaire Robert Kuok'.
So, it is too early to assume that they will offer it at the same prices to the general public. Ya, I agree, prices moved up very fast and given the current poor sentiments a correction is highly likely. However, I have a hard time believing that the rest of the developers will panic based on this press release and start cutting prices.
The article is vague. It is not clear whether RM 1000 psf is starting or average price for these 'directors and business associates'. They bought land at RM 334 psf. If I am not mistaken, plot ratio is around 5 in puteri harbour. That means the land cost is around RM 65 psf. Construction cost for luxury high rise is around RM 300-400 psf. Including marketing, clearances, I would estimate their cost to be around RM 500 psf. At RM 1000 psf, they hit break even at 50% sales. What can stop them from jacking up the prices for general buyers, after they have sold a good chunk to 'directors and business associates'? They don't care if the sales are slow.
