374k? must be selling like hot cake

anyone have more information on this project? what is the land used for before this project? worry it might be tanah paya coz it look near to river….

Checked from google maps. I think it is the empty land next to Giant. It’s full of greens. So I think not tanah paya.

AnnJoo Steel Mill is nearby….how is the air there? dusty?

soft launch? totally not familiar with this location..hows the neighborhood around there?

Yes , AnnJoo steel just behind of the project , dusty lo…
The land is Tanah paya and a lot of india there. summore behind is railway.

The area used to be railway worker quater and also train repair station, if not mistaken Giant was football field. Railway just about 400m meter away from central way. And there also Prai Sugar factory around the corner. You will not like the area if you pay there a visit, alot of foreign worker. Night time like ghost town…

u will stay with a lot of foreign workers … i mean hard labor. This is previously KTM and have a lot of houses and shops already there. The place is filled with our indian friends and near to the previous malayawata plant. The air quality is very bad…. cloths if u hang will become yellow one….just like indrawasih. The road in and out also not good as the BORR exits across there. The developer knows about this, that is why so cheap!

seem like this is not a good location to hv home sweet home

RM 374k for a 2 1/2-Storey terrace in Butterworth? Consider a very cheap price.
Is pros and cons, between price, location and living environment.
Good price, good location, but just only to consider about the surrounding environment.

I agree with all of the above comments on the surrounding. It would help is this project is gated, at least will feel safer. But, developer will not have the gated plan. Also, this is only the soft launch price. After that, it will be RM 400K and above. Personally, for this price and this surrounding, I will hesitate.

I also notice that the front portion for car park is quite short (22′ x 56′), only 16′? Approximately 4.8m and lets say Toyota Vios, the length is already 4.3m. Seems like once the car is in the porch, right behing would be the gate. Also, separating one house from another, its only a fence and not even a wall.

oops…look like my concern on the evironment sound really bad…not a home sweet home to me……

@T
i agree with you heheh ~~~ coz i stay near by there .

The price is cheap for some reasons. Most worrying is the numbers of foreign workers staying there. Just ask the resident or property owners of the adjacent prai inai condo and you will know. The nearby shoplots if not mistaken most are empty. Some more near rail road and steel mill. The Giant there also may not survive long i guess…

I live nearby but i never step into there also unless sometimes i want to make a u turn to inderawasih. The place is really cannot live anymore. Even offer bungalow with that price range i also will not consider. Think!

this is the problem with perai/ penang township plan. I do not think they have a plan for this knowing that the after effect of the BORR exits will cause to this on that nice place. If you were to look via google map, that area and along chain ferry roads have very high potential for nice living as it have a river, infrastructure, nice community.

anyone know upcoming project in butterworth???

WARNING : VERY BAD PLACE/ LOCATION!!!!!

why not buy completed house like palm villas g&g in raja uda good location no worry at all.

For Butterworth people, Raja Uda to them is a good location but not
people from Penang.

Now day Penang people buying mainland property cos is cheaper than Penang Island.

@Jess

Jess are you the owner of the project in Bukit Tengah 99units g&g DST?

@bad experience
Totally agree with you.

I think that BORR bridge have break the Feng Sui, many foreign worker staying nearby the shop. it is good location actually and police station is nearby too, easy to connect to every where like penang bridge, bm and butterworth,anyhow if you are able dropped by that area I don’t think any one of us will like the area!

The place is really a sleepy hallow. Not worth buy a property near to dusty area. I am one of first customer to pay the booking fees. Already withdraw it after saw the surrounding area.

I went there few days ago and noticed the shop houses were occupied by ‘foreigners’ but overall I think once the houses were up, that place will get some extra boost. Land is getting limited so, my 2 cents is worth consider.

@Andy

You got full payment after withdraw?

I went there last week, although kinda like the house, but Dad warned me about the bad pollution problem. then when i i check with the sales girl, she said coz this is industry area, but she trusted that the factory will adhere to ISO quality of waste released. hmmn.. i am a malaysian, & being a M’sian.. that so not reliable.. imagine even Lynas Factory can get permit to operate d!! LOL

Oh ya.. btw, the price is now approx. RM437K if im not mistaken. & lots with irregular shape cozt u more!! give more land wor..

Most residents in that area are not Chinese and factories pollution
can only be reduced but not eliminated.

I am planning to sell my double storey terrace house in Prai Utama,fully renovated,if interested please contact me..Thank you

@house seeker
They refunded back after minus RM200 as a processing fee. Overall i am satisfy with my decision to withdraw it although they forfeited RM200.

This is the dead city. My advice, don’t buy or else you will regrete one day.

last week i have visit their showroom, get attracted by their promotion of free all s&p, loan legal fees & also free transfer of title which is not cheap. i m considering to buy one unit there but after hearing all of your comment….
can some one please recommend me new property that below RM400,000 located in Butterworth area include free all package for me? if got any please inform me i going to buy.thank you.

i planned to buy one unit- prai inai condominium for investment. i see the rental quite good because can cover bank loan. however i read all of your comment, i may consider now. how about prai inai condo? what do you guys think?.
i know the giant there looked like ongoing shutting down. no many ppl going there.
the shoplot mostly in vacancy.
but i check the rental can reach rm 1000 if renovated and sell at 170k. quite a good return.
plus, the management quite nice. got many facility, well maintained. they don’t allow foreign labor to stay in the condo.

I just sold my condo unit at prai inai. Can’t stand the dust mixed with metal and moist. Hazardous.

@jockey
How much? What about the market price for the double storey terrace(intermediate)…fully renovated 1

They doing promotion in Sunway Karnival mall. Min price increase to 400k now, the build progress is 20-30% now. They still have ~70-75% houses open for sales. Look like the demand is not so good.

That area really like a isolated taman, where a lot of “foreigner”. The road is wide, but not much car. All the shoplots are unknown state, some rent to foreigner. Behind the taman got a lot of flat, a lot of car park at road side, quite complicated.

If you are perai people, and prefer to continue stay there and no worry about other thing like factory, a good buy, as the price is consider cheap for this size.
