@TPI
So fast? CW2 not even complete 10% of the building, how come so early you need to pay?
@BH
They claim me the foundation already…
Is anyone receive the letter to pay for the 3rd 15% payment?
so fast ?
The foundation is ready and the first roll already start building the structure.
The progress of CW is very fast. but CW2 seems like not moving.
no yet pay 3rd 15% still need 2 to 3 month
anyone know the latest price of CW2?? tq
hear that it gonna raise the selling price again =.=
@PY
of coz the price is going to be increased… you can see the nearby development. more and more condo around. with shopping complex and commercial areas surrounding CW2. the latest price i know is 438k. i think is still worthy for this location.
@XYZ
What lot that you purchased? Is this your estimation for 2 – 3 months or according to the OM? Probably in May?
thx for your info, i think i will go get one unit soon. : )
@park
Welcome to the group….
@park
do let us know what is the selling status if you happen to drop by their sales office! haha…
Called to OM last Sat and the price is still 438k and left 20+ units.
Now the construction is focusing on the first row of CW2
booked lot 37 (loan rejected lot)
@PY
Welcome on board….
My unit is lot 43
wow… more and more owner identified.
The price will inscrease very soon . Because the Mydin will build before Nissan sale center and new project coming will sale 300++sq.ft condo near roundabout .Crazy…
This area is quite close to Nagasari. Concern will be like Juru or Taman Pelangi (foreigner village)!
@123
I don’t think so this area will become like Juru or Taman Pelangi. This location is better than other. I have stayed at this location (Taman Kerjasama) more than 15 years… nonthing happend!
@123 cannot go nagasari because in between got small river .Unless u swim to there .
According to developer, they seems want to open a road to Nagasari, that the worst condition
I would prefer they open a road to link up Bukit Tengah road where near to the essos petrol station
@JC
To built a bridge crossing Sungai Juru need more than RM10 million, Centralway just a small project, not possible to work on it.
@BH
@100
ya, i prefer they link to the ESSO petrol station at rest house there, but according to the oriental max SA, they says they are not allow to open a road to the highway, so they plan to open to nagasari when phase 2 in progress. This what SA told me when i bought phase 1. not sure what is the current plan by oriental max. do you guys think oriental max still have land for future phase by at that area?
i also prefer they connect to the highway. there is an existing junction at the highway, but not completed. can see even in google map.
This OM told me, definitely developer have to open an access toad, just don’t know where is it.
Signed S&N last week for unit 119
*S&P
@nkwai8822
Congratulation and welcome on board!
@nkwai8822
How many unit left when you sign your SnP?
Once access road is openend to nagasari’,it will easè those working in prai!:
Less than 30 units left
@nkwai8822
the time when i booked, less than 27 units.
now who has the latest info? thx
checked with the sales, left 25 units.
Been OM office today book a unit. Left 20+ units.
What is the price now? =)
The price is 438K.
seems like the price not going up anymore…
~100k profit for CW1 as early bird bought it at 335k only.
The figure should be max d….else will burst very fast…
This area will soon link to prai industrial area. Closer for those working there. Howeve if new link to nagasari in future, might have some problem . However still ok as this is gated and guarded property.
I noticed there are some condos along jalan baru. what condos are they?
@TPI: https://www.penangpropertytalk.com/2010/11/palma-laguna-water-park-condo/
Palma Laguna is near to the bridge. I mean those nearer to the railway station, beside CW2. A few blocks look like going to complete. While an empty space i think just wanna start…
heard from my fren, said that now cw2 only left for bumi lot. anyone can clarify that?? tq
Will there be any show house?
Yes, now only left the bumiputera lot after confirm with OM.That is true…
I remember OM staff said they can advertise in all main newspaper for 3 times, then they can sell the bumi lot already…
Anyone to let out their unit?
@potential buyer
why not wait for the bumi lot to release?
@LimPP
When bumi lot release, the project already 50% constructed, the price with be increase.
i heard it is 70% or 80% completed then only can apply for the bumi lot release. But, OM staff told me that they can just do advertising for 3 times in all mainstream newspapers, then if still not sold, then the lots are released…
So how many bumi lots available?
Latest update!!!
The available bumi lot are arround 20 units ++…
Wow… so many units ah!
I bought oriental max project at D-Link 2, frankly speaking, the 1st phase still ok, but my friend bought at phase 2 like kana sai
What d problems? Bad quality?
I think their quality really is not that good. even the sliding is so hard to slide. low quality product. so maybe have to spend more on the renovation…
I really cannot “tahan” with this oriental max’s projects any more…..
Really like shit….
See more will vomit, their design looks like “Atap House”
@Bay Tahan
is ok. Just don’t look. everyone got different taste. maybe your house also looks like atap house to us?
@Bay Tahan
Intelligence people’s always positve thinking, so what they see is good things. Stupid people always negative thinking, so what they see is shit.
House design feel like Atap House but you can get the house space so big in BM with this price. @Bay Tahan
@JC
Why you are so familiar with this developer ? Are you the one work with oriental max ?
@LimPP
You are stupid idiot.
Why t\you are so rude ? Your parent never teach you to be polite ? You are bustard
@100
to reply “100 & LimPP”
You all work with oriental max sure talk their projects very nice, since you all so happy with the design, why not you buy one, you will understand our feeling.. talk too much no point.
You 2 work and just get their salary, i believe you 2 cannot buy unless they give special staff price.
@TPI
Reply TPI
I AGREED WITH YOUR OPINION, SINCE THEY ARE COPY CAT, OF COURSE CANNOT ACHIEVE THE QUALITY LAH.
@Bay Tahan
I am a buyer for this project. If you not certify with their project you must go to that forum & complain & not here. this forum is for Central Way discussion only. Every CW buyer also not happy if you not a buyer but simply talk their house like Atap house.
hi all, i am back hoho. how is our houses now? CW2!!
wow now selling 438K? i bought at 385K last time
now still left how many house oh? and also got a lot of malay and india buyer?
Each unit will have only 2 air-con points, 2 heater points and 2 ceiling fan points, it’s apparently insufficient for a comfort house.
Does anyone have the same concern as me?
Can we request the developer to add in more points during the construction?
Any post-OC renovation for adding in these points will need to break the wall if those wires are to be hidden inside the wall…
Tak tahu then go to ask the developer la, not necessary those workers of developer know this. Forum is for ppl discuss and share what they know.
@nkwai8822
I agree. at least one aircon point each room and living room. heater point would be needed for every toilet. ceiling fan for every room, kitchen and living room.
how to make a request to the developer? i think if we make the same request, if there are a lot, then maybe the developer will consider.
@TPI
Yes, we go make request together. how we do this?
@enzo
i was thinking to go to their sales office at bukit minyak. still open on sunday?
@TPI
Agree.
great location for this project! any unit left?
Anyone visited the site? Any progress photos? I am staying in Sg Ara, not convenient to go over… Thanks!!!
@Pimples
Pls refer to http://www.orientalmax.com.my/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=112&Itemid=134 for the progress
@CS
Thanks!
I paid a visit to the site yesterday. The phase 1 is completed. looks nice!
@Pimples
Which lot that you bought?
@CS
I not yet buy. Just came to know that this area got such development. Many of the houses in BM already selling 500k and above. This one only 400k so is affordable. The house also quite big since is 3 storey.
But there are still a lot of new development at this area and thus have to think well…
Worth to buy this project…as my fren who work as property agent told me…the double storey link house at the front already raise untill RM 400 K plus…so this project with gated and 3 storey….easily will hit RM 500 K once phase 1 complete….
Delink2 which quite similar to this one already transacted with RM550k; located at the prime area which is very close to Raja Uda; and the area surrounding will have plenty of new shops in 2-3 years time.
Hi, I bought lot 79 last year. surprising the project still not yet sold out.
Hi Guys, bought lot 106 early this year….
YC,.. how much they selling now? how many unit left?
Heard the price hitting 500k already.. how true is it?
500k still worth to buy for stay or invest? other project all above 500k…
saw at mudah delink2 sold at 550k,580k, CW2 just release bumi lot sold at 488k, still worth to buy?
@lalazai , where do u checked the price of the bumi lot for CW2? tq
The bumi lot has been released and the price is RM 488K after confirm with developer. The price was increased RM 50K compare to before non-bumi lot is only RM 438K. I thought this is related to the petrol fuel price was increased recently. Everybody will be suffered later…
Hi, back to the question of progress payment, has anyone already receive the notice to pay 3rd payment ? I visited the site 2 months ago, it seems to me that the “frame” of the house already completed.
@Buyer_007
RM488k is corner unit ?
Not yet. Plan to visit the site this week or next week. I believe 1st and 2nd row are in the progress of building to the 3rd level structure. Anyone knows how many units left now?
I heard the high voltage cable is another <1km from CW2? It correct? If correct than when we move in it will effect our healty. And that place near industrial area also no good for our health? Am I correct? Place reply me. Thanks
@Jo
yes. they started claiming for structural completion…
@jason
I think the HT cable is around 500m away… anyway, how does it affect our health is arguable… from your comment, seems like you like to stay in jungle…
500m is not near but to me is not far..especially when u talk about healthy issue. Why save the few hundred bucks in property but end up pay to doctor?
yup, penang air pullution many factory many HT cable, pulau haba at island so dangerous, pg cant stay anymore, stay at kedah, in jungle fresh air buy bungalow there everyday travel 30min to mainland 40min to island also worth ==
lala, your Impian unit sold liao boh? Impian area is free of HT cabl, so not need to move to Kedah la..
lol..sold d 400k, but still gt few buyer asking that unit, sholud sold at 450k ==
lala, quick money not bad la..
I did some observation and evaluation for CW2 project distance from high tension wires and tower is still considered ease and safe to stay. There are two high tension towers nearby the CW2; the distance between CW2 and high tension tower #1 is around 444m (1456 ft) and the distance between CW2 and high tension tower #2 (crossover the north-south highway) is around 400m (1312 ft). It is also depend that how many KV generate from the high voltage power station to each high tension tower. For more information, you may do some research from internet.
Below is the standard safe distance from high tension wires for your reference from the researcher:
Overhead transmission line easement setbacks:
• 30.48m (100 feet) from the edge of an easement for a 50-133 kV line
• 45.72m (150 feet) from the edge of an easement for a 220-230 kV line
• 106.68m (350 feet) from the edge of an easement for a 500-550 kV line
Underground transmission line easement setbacks:
• 7.62m (25 feet) from the edge of an easement for 50-133 kV (interpreted by CDE up to <200kV)
• 11.43m (37.5 feet) from the edge of an easement for 220-230 kV line
• 26.67m (87.5 feet) from the edge of an easement for 500-550 kV line
@Buyer_007
good after oc, can sell 688k ==
Anyone knows how many units left?
Does any owner already receive notification to pay 3rd installment ?
@Jo
yep. gotta pay already.
@CW
Are you the owner for the 1st row?
I the buyer of CW2. i buy for stay. how about you all? buy for stay or invest?
@CS
2nd row…
@jason
i am for stay too
May I knw when is completed date for central way 2. Thanks
@218
end 2015
what is the latest price now?? tq
Still left the first and last row units…1wk ago last row still 488k
last row is bigger units… the normal units no more?
first row behind house gt small land, so more expensive over 500k no ppl want, last row face to highway or near highway no ppl want
Went to see CW yesterday. felt that the living and dining area like cramp together. very small space… but the rooms upstairs are nice, and big space!
went to view the show room, a bit small lah….
in market normally 20′ wodth, and this project only 18′
@AH HAI
wah, like that also complain small ah? People at Tropicana Bay Residence are buying 415sft apartment leh….:)
not 20×63 ?
land area 1299sf, build up area 2300+sf
For terrace 18′ width is considered short. Cannot park 2 cars.
Avanza car size 1635mm x 4120mm, Alza car size 1695mm x 4205mm, So what car you prefer if 18′ cannot park in your porch. Anywhere the house width is 20′ & not 18′
Really lousy developer. They use common red brick to built the interlock paver. I work in construction site more than 20 year. This is the first time i saw in the construction site the developer use common brick to replaced interlock paver. Interlock paver is 10 time stronger than common brick, 4 times expensive than common brick & much, much look nice than common red brick. The more Important reason is interlock paver maintenance free. interlock paver is stone. Please go to visit Central Way 1, you will panic. Central Way 2 & others Oriental max project will use same material if purchaser keep silence.
If Oriental Max boss & staff don’t know what is interlock paver, please go to Palm Villas, Pearl Villas, Orange Villa, Mandarin Quarter & other developer’s project study & not keep ignorant all purchaser.
I went to the CW1 site & found that the back lane interlock there really use common red brick to built, think need to complain to their office & reject the low quality paver built at CW2.
Actually what is use common red brick to built the interlock paver.
All purchaser please visit the site & have a look. The developer do the ground beam wrongly & placed the brickwall sit on clay soil (Guest Room at Ground Floor). This is a very serious mistake. Only two result in future will happen. 1) Wall will serious crack due to soil can’t support part of the wall. 2)Wall suddenly fall down due to soil totally fail. If want to stay inside sure need to buy more medical insurance. Please call their engineer Mr. Goh (04-3988008) & request whole life guarantee for this wall if they insist want to construct the wall. Remember to take photo for the case for prove in future.
Why still got this `black heart’ developer in Malaysia?
The black heart developer, engineer & architect should sent to jail in Bukit Aman for whole life.
Olh, are u sure they use the normal red brick to do the road??? Same size??? I just talk to my friend who also more than 20 years experience in construction line and contract for Kulim Square now said that red brick (not the normal brick) also can use as material to built the road. Unless u see with your own eye about the size of the red brick, otherwise what is the purpose to put a bad name to the project.
They use the brick that karate practice often use cheap cheap one. If you not believe, better go to visit the site. The work still proceeded on site.
@Chocolate Don’t simply hear your friend talk this & that. Please prove us which project using common brick to do paver. Kulim Square?
My site here still charging me 10% progress, very doubt can they finish by this year, as the contract stated next year Jan, if last minute finish afraid about the quality not good, anyone of u facing the same issue as I does?
Did i say the common brick? What he told me was the square type brick which as strong as the interlock, but definitely not the common brick. Only the shape is different.
u means CW or CW2?
@engineer
Why dont u lodge a report to them or housing association .. If it really not met the requirement , i believe the oc cant b obtain rite. Since u hv knwledge abt tht, with the picture tht u took , u hv solid prove to do so..
I meant cw2, that’s why I worried, cw buyer won’t be prob as I saw almost all finish.
Hi Ah Hai, where is the show unit? Thanks
@engineer The developer already redo the wall or not?
@Happy
You can look at the CW. Phase 1.
@CW2
Thanks a lot, CW2
Refer to latest central light industrial site plan, there is link to CW2 which may enable to access high way ? Anyone know the potential link ?
The latest price for CW2 is RM518K. Is it still worth to buy?
Still got unit left??? saw the advertisement, developer no longer promoting CW2.
@SY
Just left less than 10 units.
@Buyer_007
RM518k is for intermediate unit, right?
@CS
Yup…
@Buyer_007
Any normal unit left? As I know, the latest selling price for normal unit is RM438k. Not sure what is the selling price now.
@CS
Just a intermediate unit left. All corner unit has been sold out. The price is RM 518K after confirm with developer.
Use RM518k to buy a house with wall sit on soil & not beams? Why so Stupid?
I go to site just now & saw that the internal plastering work already done & the wall sit on soil still there & no improvement done. I think purchaser should be pity now & not happy.
no choice, u have to buy, later 618k u only rush to buy and said worth like orange villa ==
Use RM518k to buy now, than one day the wall fall down & hit somebody, the value of house suddenly drop to RM300k.
if one day the wall fall down hit somebody then sue developer sure gt many than that ==
At the time you sue them, the developer already collect all purchaser’s money & transfer to other banks account, so you just sue a empty company & get nothing.
OM so big company will run away? lol…sure u envy ppl buy early and earn alot then u beh soik then complain here complain ther ==
@victim
I think you still new in construction line. OM wouldn’t run away & you just can sue their branch (SETIA JUTARIA SDN. BHD.). All developer use one branch name to do one project only. This can save them from sue by purchaser.
actually oriental max is not that bad, i work there before
till today I yet to receive the notification for 3rd 15% progress claim, is it normal ?
@CW
you already paid 3rd 15% payment ?
@Jo
Not sure which stage are they claiming now. hows the site progress so far? long time never visit…
I also not having the request for 3rd payment….
Just received the 3rd payment.
just visited CW1 site, 30 ft road (from the house gate to the opposite house gate) really looks narrow! the red bricks (with 3 holes in the middle of the brick) used to build the interlock paver is dangerous for ppl to walk on. cw & cw2 residents should goto take a look and complain b4 too late.
@calvin
agreed, really disappointed with the paver, I think no developer brave to construct this type of `paria’ paver except Orientalmax. I think Centralway’s unit price will spoil a lot due to this bad paver.
Anybody know when will get OC for CW2? mid of 2015? or end of 2015?
I have called OM regarding the OC obtain for CW2 project, but they said will be completed on either end of year 2015 or early of year 2016.
@victim
now we should discuss OM run away question again….
i just goto see cw2 project only. that project not bad.. all material use also ok one. so cw2 wall din not fall lah. if really fall we also can sue OM eh. i am register sivil engineer so i know all that rule and the project. so no wan kena tipu by some oh.
haha…
@jason
I got many photo for the wall sit on ground, not a engineer also can see the mistake, if you want, let me know your email address & I can email this photo to you.
the wall not fall down in short time because the ground still can support it. One day if heavy rain & underground ground run away with rain water, the problem with exposed house by house.
The finishing work good or not you can go to CW1 have a look. Bad walk way path with low quality clay brick. Bad landscape with just one big old tree garden.
take a video of the surroundings to confirm the location and then close up on these defects …..post them on youtube then share the links?
videos is worth a thousand descriptions.
Are u buyer? if yes then show the photo go complain the developer, if not y u so concern about it? other buyer also should go and take a look, see gt problem or not? I am buyer but nt in pg now.
@owner
yaya…i am a owner..my house very near the central way 2 only..so i evry 2 week will go there see..i also bring another developer goto see my house, all developer say ok n no hv a problem. they say if got prob can take photo n sent to mpsp complaint. bt the result is central way 2 project no have any problem…
Act i duno why some body alw say CW2 project no good and so so.. other developer more worst then CW2 and OM developer also got loh bt their project no body complaint..
@jason Stupid purchaser, actually what you need is quickly request the defeat photo from engineer & clarified with developer & not side developer & let them built what they like.
Any one can give me the photo? i will show to develepor and sue OM.
CW1 is G&G house but look worse than normal terrace house, electric cable simply connect look ugly, road rough than normal road, no landscape garden, I scare CW2 also build like that, I go complain but they told me no any CW owner complain…zzz
How far is Central Way 2 with the Bukit Tengah railway station?
Is the railtrack running just infront of Central Way 2 near the highway?
Does anyone know?
thanks
@Janice
i think is about 300 meter to 500 meter from the rail track
According to google map, it is more than 700m to the track.
thank you Orange and Chocolate
very quick response.
I hear that Oriental max is building shophouses in front of Central Way 2? Anyone can confirm that?
Thanks for replying
heard that the selling price rose to 548k. anyone can confirmed?
The price now increased to RM538K after confirm.
Anyhow, still consider cheaper if compare to other developer.
lol… Oriental Max… good luck ya…lol
@Da Chai, why wish OM good luck ?
RM538K is for standard type?
@CS
Yup, you’re right…
Hi, I have just signed my S&P…
Just wanna say hi to my neighbour in Centralway II, very excited and can’t wait to meet all of you.
Why Taman Setia?
Why not Taman Villa Indah or Taman Indah?
@Buyer_007
Initial price is RM385k. But now increase to RM538k… Any available unit now? I believe Rm538k is the house with small land. Not the standard one. Can’t believe it will increase RM153k…
not the small land problem, every project also increase like villa primero initial price 388k, now 588k sell from developer, increase 200k, thats y penang lang always say duno work, lazy work also nevermind, duno invest then u poor forever ==
