Wow! I think this is the vacant lot near Vito Cruz that I passed by last Sunday along Taft going to Buendia. It will surely complement the ever-changing skyline near DLSU area.

For those with grade school kids, this is the perfect investment for you. Prepare a home for them when they reach College with a secure and affordable condo. This is also perfect if you are working in Makati which is just 1.5km away. A halfway home between work and school!

ang ganda ng projects na yan..

Nice..... another one along Taft Ave....

if its by DMCI, it must be good!

Is the location good for future rental opportunities? At the moment, how much is a STUDIO rental rate in this area of Taft Pasay?

Looks good. Did i see the render right? the amenities are ground level and fronts taft avenue? if so, it'll definitely make the place look much better. that area's way too dark as it is now due to the LRT.

The amenities would be at the back of the 2 towers... Amenities would be facing Donada St./ Manila Sanitarium Hospital....

Aww. I had hoped it'll face taft. Still a good addition there though. But i hope that the building will be built a reasonable distance from the LRT, to allow more natural light to brighten up that area.

It is actually better for the amenities to face Donada instead of Taft. I wouldn't want to be swimming facing the LRT and near taft's smog.

By the way, I just reserved a unit here. Per their latest availability sheets, 1bedroom units is already SOLD OUT. Few Studio units remaining. Yung 1Bedroom and Studio units kasi are only up to the 17th floor. 18th floors and UP are already for 2-3 bedrooms. So i would assume malaki talaga ang demand for studio and 1bedroom due to limited supply.

They officially started selling only last Monday, Aug15. Pero prior to that, they already received a number of reservations. FIrst bldg is about 50% sold out, and they haven't even had brochures yet.

I got a unit here as well... Studio w/ Balcony at the ATRIUM Garden Level =).... Very affordable payment terms... No Downpayment. Downpayment is payable in 43 months!...

I got availability list from my agent and to my surprise, all 1 bedrooms are sold out... only less than 15 Studio units available....... Most of whats left are big 2 and 3 bedroom units.... I reckon this is a real good rental investment condo... Cheers to those who has gotten a unit here in La Verti =)...... 5% price increase starting Aug 23.

One bedroom is sold out since their launching date last monday pa..

Btw, i got this from an article re: DMCI's projects:

The company, which is looking to double its business in five years, justifies its development approach on the characteristic of the market as more of the end-user than an investor, according to DMCI Homes president Alfredo R. Austria.

The company in a recent briefing said that they are in "increasing pressure from sellers" to develop smaller studio and one-bedroom units "which are faster to sell", yet Austria said the company remains focused in its strategy of developing two to three bedroom units to "build a community of families" in its projects.

The attractiveness of smaller units is due to its affordability, costing a littler over P1 million and not being subject to value added tax.

"(But) marami pa ring market for the P2.5 million to P3.5 million," according to Austria, citing the price range for their products.

Cherrie Lyn Cruz, DMCI Homes marketing manager, said their projects are primarily available to families with a combined monthly income of P80,000 to P100,000.


Am happy this project is geared towards families. No wonder karamihan sa mga units are 2-3 bedrooms. I hope on the 2nd Bldg, DMCI will follow the same principle in their unit allotment - (more 2-3 bedrooms than studio units) and not be pressured/tempted by the brisk sales of the studio units.

My unit, at only about 65K/sqm, is already a great deal considering its resort style amenities and versus other similar projects. I'm paying around 9K lang for 43 months, then if bank financing once turnover, around 13K lang.. parang nagrerent ka lang. =D Very affordable at its present price level.

Congratulations for getting that last unit :cheers:
Which floor are you at? Got mine at 12th floor....

I got the last available studio unit facing the Manila Bay. Nakipag-unahan yung agent ko. haha.

At the 10th floor.. The unit my agent quoted me originally is at the 17th floor (i told her kasi i want the highest possible studio unit that is facing manila bay). Pero when i tendered my check, puro lower floors lang naiwang studio unit na facing manila bay so i have no choice na. hehe. Well ok na rin kahit mababa, at least i have a better view of the amenities (pool).

Nice. I never knew being studio units do not have VAT.

Nice. I never knew being studio units do not have VAT.

Yeah as long as they are below 2.5M it's VAT exempt.. By the way, all DMCI prices listed are already VAT inclusive if applicable.

In La Verti a studio is around 1.8M (24 sqm) and a 2 bedroom (48 sqm) is around 3.6M. So technically you are getting more value out of the 2 Bedroom unit which is 3.2M without VAT.

Yeah. At first I wanted a 1 Bedroom with balcony, when they were gone I kept waiting for one to re-open until those without balconies sold out as well. Then all those studios fronting Manila Bay were gone. Got tired of waiting so just got the studios instead, facing makati. No sense in waiting, prices increase next week.

Yea if I had money I'd buy units to rent out to those going to the nearby college.

Yeah and people in the area can afford the rental rates. This should also be perfect for balikbayan and foreigner rental. If the building is standing right now, a studio can be rented out at least 20k/mo. How much more 4 years from now.. Will a studio here be valued at 3M by then? I recall units at Royal Palm, started out at 2.3M and are now 3.2M.. this was 2 years ago.

Perfect for families who are looking for halfway homes from work and school.

Kelan ba yong scheduled turnover nito? 5 years form now o much earlier? Do they offer the same discount for cash buyers like before? I remember at Raya back then, its 26% off for cash buyers?

Kelan ba yong scheduled turnover nito? 5 years from now o much earlier? Do they offer the same discounts for cash buyers like before? I remember at Raya back then, its 26% off for cash buyers?

Any concerns about flooding in this area?

the installment for downpayment is 43months. So i would assume the target turn over the unit is after 43 months. I am hoping though that with DMCI's reputation, there would be an earlier turnove than the target.

Kelan ba yong scheduled turnover nito? 5 years from now o much earlier? Do they offer the same discounts for cash buyers like before? I remember at Raya back then, its 26% off for cash buyers?

It depends on the number of months before turnover so 10% for full CASH discount + 10% for spot discount (30 more more months) + the standard 2% PDC discount so around 22% in total

the installment for downpayment is 43months. So i would assume the target turn over the unit is after 43 months. I am hoping though that with DMCI's reputation, there would be an earlier turnove than the target.

Yeah, we don't want to speculate but there's a possibility that this will be completed earlier. In such cases, the buyer can advance the remaining minimum downpayment to move in or just wait until march 2014.

Well it's official. I just got the new price list for La Verti price increase which will take effect August 23, 2010. Price increase is around 3%

Studio from 1.8M to 1.85M, 50k increase
1 Bedroom 2.1M to 2.163M, 63k increase
2 Bedroom 3.453M to 3.522M, 70k increase
3 Bedroom 4.854 to 4.951, 97k increase

Im excited about this development.... The location is spot on for future rental opportunity.... very accessible with the LRT Buenda station being walking distance away. One can easily go to Ayala Makati via LRT<> MRT connection.... Congratulations to my fellow investors who got the pre selling price....

Got my 1 Bedroom on the 8th floor. :)

2 weeks after the launching, half of the entire building is already sold. And other units on hold are still to be closed. The influx of sales is surprising.

Good job to the sales group of La Verti. :)

hellokoka - wow, so you were the few lucky ones who were able to get the limited one bedroom units which were the first to got sold out. When my agent first presented the project, all the 1bedroom units were already sold and this is the weekend before the project was even lauched. Do you intend to be an end user of this or just an investor?

Studios would be good rental units in the future... Studios would be affordable to Students around the area. Also, what I like about DMCI studio units, is that most have balconies that makes the space more open and "liveable"... One can put a small table and 2 stools to have an instant al fresco dining area =)....

Thats right, This makes La Verti the most "gree" condo in Taft Avenue. Plus its elevated by 1 meter and residential units starts at 7th floor to counter the effects of LRT Train Noise

malalaki mga sizes nila at yn g open space ang maganda sa kanila... hindi mo mararamdaman na nakatira ka sa condo kasi nag laki ng open space nila:banana::banana:

@joshualegaspi32
I still don't know if I will be using it or let it rented out. But nonetheless, I'm still excited to see how this project will turn-out.

The last time I heard, they already sold more than half of the building within less than a month from its launch date. Looks like the 40-level building will be sold out before the third month ends. The second building is scheduled to be out early next year. But due to the influx of sales, the pressure will be much higher for DMCI Homes to release the second building earlier than scheduled.

This is the first time for DMCI Homes to get this much demand. Very well done. :)

Hi,

let say 50yrs ang life ng building. ano mangyayari sa owner if Lifetime ownership?

Thanks

-deleted-

Any updates???? Whats happening to La Verti?

Hi,

Thanks

The land and building would be owned by the condominium corp of which each owner is a stockholder. Strictly speaking, condominium is just a form of ownership.

Any updates???? Whats happening to La Verti?

We just had 2 studios reopened last Thursday but were taken right away. Maybe next week some other hot units may reopen. Who knows, a few 1 Bedroom units would pop out.

when will they start construction? may schedule na ba?
will they also construct a showroom at the site? para naman the buyers can see more tangible materials of the project plan, and hindi lang yung sa website/online materials. Also, i hope they come up with better brochures/pamphlets on La Verti. So far, i've seen only leaflets which are not at all appealing.

Sales i would assume would skyrocket more once they come up with more sales materials on the project.

pakimsg naman po ako for 1BR unit..thanks..very interested with this place

i heard from my agents weeks ago that the 2/3 bedroom corner units from 18th-22nd floors will be converted to 1bedroom units to make up for the demand. I already have a reservation check lined up for this.

Regarding my earlier reserved studio unit, the 30day deadline for PDC to get the 2% discount is already due next week. I have my checks already, but my papers are still being processed (due to influx of admin work in DMCI according to my agent) so i still could not have my checks tendered. I wanted to just give them the PDCs even without the papers just so I can get the 2% discount but my agent would not accept it yet.

You will be given an extra 15 day grace period so no worries with the PDC discount

Just wait for re-openings. Most probably they will start popping up October

Thanks Brokerods for the advice. Good to know that DMCI remains client-friendly after sales unlike some developers I know who can be unreasonable just because your money is tied up with them already and you can't do anything about it.

Not really. I've had my fair share of headaches with DMCI as well as with other developers. The thing going for DMCI though is the timely delivery of the project.

As for your deadline... earliest reservation was August 16, 2010. Your official deadline should be September 22, 2010. You have a grace period of 15 days after or October 7, 2010 (final, if you go beyond this you lose the 2% PDC discount). If some reservations won't push through, units will reopen after October 7 (for those hoping for 1BR and studios)

So far, how much has been the % increase of prices here in La Verti? I got a studio unit here at the 12th Floor Garden Level at 1.7M =)......

Hi Guys!

There are new changes with La Verti. New 1 Bedroom Units will be released (converted from existing 3 Bedrooms) More information can be found here

New 1 Bedroom releases for La Verti Residences (http://www.dmci.bobonbeachresort.com/la-verti-residences-dmci-taft-pasay/)

i've seen a bulldozer doing some land work when i passed by the site the other day.. has construction officially started? :banana:

@eurasia
La Verti is a trademark DMCI Homes resort-themed project but its architecture is modern. There might have been a confusion with the Korean layout of some of its units but the project as a whole is modern contemporary themed just like most of DMCI Homes' projects.

:)

i've seen a bulldozer doing some land work when i passed by the site the other day.. has construction officially started? :banana:

I think so - when I pass thru it from the LRT station most of the foliage has been removed already!

Any updates on La Verti????...... hows the selling going? Prices gone up??? I got my Studio Unit here @ 1.7M only.

Was just having a conversation about BREATHING BUILDING in other thread and DMCI's projects were the first thing that came to my mind. This breakthrough technology is the "IN" thing in construction and building engineering here in Canada and the US but relatively new in the Philippines, it is now utilized by DMCI in some of their projects, I also found out Avida also uses this. Nice!


Breathing spaces in vertical communities
(The Philippine Star) Updated September 04, 2010 12:00 AM
http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=608895&publicationSubCategoryId=85

MANILA, Philippines - As Metro Manila and other urban centers become more congested, the only way to go is to build up. At the same time, as the lack of available land space grows, developers now face the dilemma of providing sustainable living spaces to the young urban family in search of eco-friendly living areas.

The question is: How can “green living,” specifically natural air and light flow, be incorporated into the design of condo units in an era where cramped and overcrowded living spaces are the norm?

Taking on the task of continually providing the young urban family with options to alleviate the deteriorating standards of in-city condo living, design engineers of DMCI Homes have long been toying with the idea of implementing a building design that works with the basic but often overlooked concept of the duality of seasons in the Philippine tropics. The northeast monsoon, which occurs generally during the first half of the year, brings cool and dry winds (amihan) from Siberia and China, while the southeast monsoon brings moisture-laden winds (habagat) from the West Pacific Ocean and South China Sea during the second half.

To add to their already successful implementation of the single-loaded corridors and using information on the Philippines’ prevailing weather conditions, DMCI Homes has designed another architectural innovation that integrates natural light and ventilation in their building design features. Called Lumiventt, with lumen referring to light and ventus to wind, this system allows the free flow of natural light and ventilation around and into their high-rise structures. First introduced in Tivoli Garden Residences in Mandaluyong, this breakthrough technology in home engineering is now benefiting almost 200 families residing in the said development.

With three-story-high openings called Sky Patios at the front and back of every five-floor level, and through openings at the ends of each level, natural light and air permeates through the building and all the unit spaces. Winds passing through and around the structures create areas of positive and negative pressure. Employing the basic principles of airflow, the introduction of the central landscaped atriums and large openings of the Sky Patios provide channels through which air can move. Fresh air flows in while stale or hot air is displaced or sucked out.

“On all four sides, there are big openings and air passages in the buildings. Even with different prevailing wind directions the wind enters. And even though it’s a condo, the fact that there is cross-ventilation and natural lighting on all sides, residents get the feeling of an innately natural home setting as opposed to living in damp and cramped concrete structures. Also, through this design technology, homeowners will be able to manage the high cost of energy consumption while doing their part in caring for the environment. Our commitment is to design products that are sustainable while addressing and anticipating the needs of young families,” explains Alfredo Austria, DMCI Homes president.

Any updates on La Verti????...... hows the selling going? Prices gone up??? I got my Studio Unit here @ 1.7M only.

Yeah your's increased by 3%. Cheers! Did you get parking too? Better get one while they are still 500k

Was just having a conversation about BREATHING BUILDING in other thread and DMCI's projects were the first thing that came to my mind. This breakthrough technology is the "IN" thing in construction and building engineering here in Canada and the US but relatively new in the Philippines, it is now utilized by DMCI in some of their projects, I also found out Avida also uses this. Nice!


And this, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how this "IN" technology looks like. Good luck na lang sa mga investors dito at ingat po kayo na huwag mahulog. :ohno: :bash: :ohno:

wow, a Full Page Ad today on La Verti in the Philippine Star!

Brokerods> may parking for sale na? I thought wala pa.. I'm thinking of getting one.. should i or should i go for rent nalang?

The demand in La Verti units is very high according to my friend who is an in-house at DMCI homes and expect a good return.

There were only 6 slots left when I last checked last week unless you would like to wait for the next sets of parking slots which "may" be more expensive. Come to think of it, I should be getting parking slots for myself too!

Yes. And even the newly opened 1 Bedroom units (18th to 27th floors) were gone in a week.

DMCI high rise buildings have patios every 5 floors, so you always see a garden when you look down. Lumiventte technology being employed is patented by DMCI.

oh.. my agent didn't tell me na nag-open na pala ng parking slots.. :ohno: will contact her now.. hope meron pa.

Btw, brokerods, would you have a copy of the latest availability sheet of the North Tower units? Saw your website, as of Aug pa yata yung nandun.. Thanks!

From the looks of it, the corridors is not from DMCI. I haven't seen a building of DMCI that has an atrium of more than 5 levels. The atrium on the picture's too high! :lol:

Parking slots have been available since August 13. Before that, they were unavailable.

Thanks for reminding me about the availability at my site. I've been planning took take it off. I do have the current availability with me right now but I suggest to contact your broker or agent as she would be more than happy to help you out.

Cheers

i've already talked to my agent regarding the parking slots. May natitirang anim nalang. It's at 500k raw and these are at d 2nd floor. She told me 2nd floor palang daw yung inoopen. tama ba? question, dba the higher floors are expected to be cheaper than the lower floors when it comes to parking? So would you advise that i wait for them to open nalang the higher parking floors and is it expected na mas mura siya? what do u think? Need your advice sana before i decide. so sorry, my agent kasi medyo magulo kausap.

Units here are going going.... Bilis ng bentahan dito

tsk.. saw the available parking units.., yung natirang anim pala are the ones in the ramp area.. so if ever, nakatagilid yung kotse mo dito. tsk. :bash: kaya pala wala ng bumibili nun.
now i'm so frustrated with my agent, she didn't inform me agad about the parking na nag-open na pala. sayang naman.. now i have to wait nalang for the next batch of parking slots to open, which is malamang mas mahal na.. :ohno:

I think so - when I pass thru it from the LRT station most of the foliage has been removed already!

Hey I'm new here! My 1st post! :)

Yup! nagsisimula na yung construction dito and my mga securities na rin surrounding the perimeter.

I wonder kung maglalagay pa sila ng model units dun sa mismong location considering na two bedrooms na lang ata yung available.

It's going to take some time until the new model units will be put up. A sales office would be established first. I would expect this to be available next year. In the meantime, we can view existing model units that we have in other DMCI projects

Actually there a sales office na in La Verti and I doubt there will be model units for the 1-BR and studio units. Parang kapag nagawa na yung sales office baka wala na ring open na 1-BR or studio.

guys, pa-advice naman once the 3rd floor parking opens ha.. Yung agent ko kasi seemed to be focusing on other projects, parang laging huli sa balita.

anyway, i passed by the construction site past 12MN last night.. on-going ang construction. 24/7 yata. =D

Just before La Verti was launched DMCI stocks was 18.7 .. now it's 33.4 all time high :banana:

In just 2 months

Or you can wait for reopenings.

By the way if any of you were unable to get the unit that you wanted like studios or 1 Bedroom, most likely reopenings are going to pop out next week. Validity of initial reservations expired Oct 7 so if anyone did not push through with buying, their units are up for grabs :D

How much is the going rate for a furnished studio unit in this area? Im planning to have my unit here rented out as soon when turned over.... Thank you...

My unit is at the 12th Floor Atrium Garden Level.

tanung lang sa mga brokers , does dmci help in renting out the units if the buyer wants to rent it out?

If the building is completed today, that would be around 20k up. In 3 years time, factor in appreciation and inflation so it would be even more than that.

Yes they do. dmci leasing

That is way too optimistic. A studio with a 20-25sq.m. floor area in Makati (and that is already in the Gil Puyat area near Ayala) ranges from only 8k-15k per month and a bit higher in CBD proper (meaning Greenbelt area). Rental in the CBD area can be from 15k above for a small studio and about 30+k for big studio (approx 40sq.m. floor area).. And La Verti is not exactly in a very prime location. The area is dimly lit at night but of course with the entry of the project, things could turn around. Looks like a good project overall but dont have too high of an expectation just yet. We have to wait and see what the Koreans will do with this.

Not really. We do rent out units in the area, studios... unfurnished 13k to 15k which is inclusive of assoc dues and these condos aren't even at par with what we we expect with la verti. Our furnished units rent out up to 20k. If La Verti were available now, yes it would be 20k up furnished

The difference of DMCI Condos is the utilization of open spaces. Majority of makati Condos have wlls facing your door when you go out of your room. DMCI condos have atriums and open spaces plus Sky Gardens and Patios to let air in. Amenities are also topnotch. Sarap ibenta, majority of our clients dont complain on the turnovers.

Thanks guys for the insights.... Im keeping my fingers crossed that this would be a good potential rental income for me later on. My plan is to fully furnish my Studio unit here and rent it out as soon after turnover.... Also, I hope being in the Atrium Garden Level (12th flr) would add up to my asking rental fee... More space on the units doorstep =)

Favor naman, Could you advise if u see some reopened parking slots? Sorry talaga, brokerods, i know you're not my agent so hindi ka obligated.. Yung agent ko kasi, as ive said, laging huli sa balita. Mas nauuna pa akong may nalalamang developments about La Verti through this site kaysa sa kanya eh..:ohno:

Am exited about this project na.. construction is on full swing everytime i drive by the site.

Hi Joshua! Is your agent part of the in house group or the brokers group?

Give your agent a chance. Let her know what slots you want so she can watch out for reopenings. I'm not sure if agents get the list direct but they can always ask their Sales Manager or Broker for the list. Good luck

thanks. Yup, nag usap na kami. I'll give her my 10K reservation check tomorrow para nakahanda na just in case may biglang mag-open sa parking.
:) sana mag open na 3rd floor parking and i hope the increase isn't that much..

^^ Mahirap talaga pag hot yung item. Ya, dont blame your agent if you wont be able to get it kasi talagang unahan yan. Pagkarelease nga lang minsan na may reopening wala na agad. Tyempuhan lang. Good luck!

Yeah. The list is released a day before they are available for selling. In case 2 or more interested buyers arrive at the same time at opening day, there will be drawing of lots. Only those with complete forms, and registered with reservation fee will be able to participate. Make sure that your registration hasn't expired (30 day validity). Make sure your reservation form is filled out completely.

If the unit is meant for you, you will get it, otherwise, hindi talaga para sa iyo yan. Something better will come up. Good Luck!

i totally agree with you Brokerods, when a unit reopens, unahan talaga. It will depend on how the agent reacts and how the buyers submits complete docs just to get the unit

Any updates? Has the construction started for the 1st tower?

yes, construction in full swing. i pass by the site often and construction people are working even at 12MN. I'm not sure but they seemed to be building the pool first since yung construction na nakikita ko is on the area where the swimming pool is situated. They also seemed to building first the entrance gate along taft ave.

just received a call from my agent and the second set of parking lots is already available.. It now costs P600,000! The first set was priced at only P500k! wow, 20% increase... bad for me i wasn't able to get a parking lot then.. :bash:

anyway, nagpareserve na rin ako even if its at P600K.. btw guys, u think P600K for parking lot is Okay? I'm thinking, since this project caters more to families, many will be owning cars and hence it might be safer to buy a parking lot na para sigurado, what do u guys think? For instance, I've seen in Tivoli thread na nahihirapan yung some users na humanap ng available parking ngyn.

Get Parking and you can even rent it out later on.

Happy New Year!

I was able to get a Studio Unit here at the 12th floor Atrium Garden Level North Tower @ 1.7+M (after all discounts) last year. I think, I was one of the 1st ones who made a reservation and was given additional discounts. Im glad I made a purchase here. In less than a year, it has appreciated already by almost 300k. Not bad...... How much is the going rate of rent here in this area? If Im going to have it furnished, how much can I have it rented later on?

I hope you were able to get parking too

They are now all 600k. 20% increase :((

I knew I should have gotten parking before

Since im planning to just have this Studio unit rented out, you think its still worthy to get a parking space?

Got this from DMCI's FB account:
The North Tower at LA VERTI RESIDENCES TAFT was a record breaker in terms of sales during its launching... :banana: :banana: :banana:

Now DMCI Homes will unveil its newest Tower at La Verti Residences Taft " SOUTH TOWER " on January 20 , 2011.

80% sold in less than 5months is really a feat especially many of its units are in 2-3BR and not on studio type compared to other condo projects!

MAXMONASH -- i think renting out a parking lot will also be a good investment. As you would know, target market of the project are families/end-users, not really the students.. most units are in 2-3 bedroom sizes. Hence, it is highly probable that these 2-3 BR unitowners/families will also own at least one car... so i guess there would really be a demand for parking slots here.

i myself is so frustrated that i wasn't able to get the 500K parking slot, i thought if there'll be any increase, around 20K-30K lang.. am shocked that it rose agad to 600k! But i still bought one kasi 600K yata is still Okay i guess. i've heard of other condo projects' Parking Slots being sold now at P700K-P750K..

Since im planning to just have this Studio unit rented out, you think its still worthy to get a parking space?

Yes. Having no parking is really going to be a headache and it's a plus factor if you are trying to rent out your unit. Here's a summary for parking for our reference using 600k

hi guys,

i'll be reserving a 1 br 31sqm unit sa la verti sana. pero i'm thinking kung mas ok ba ung 28sqm with 9sqm n balcony. do you think meron ba significant difference ung 28sqm sa 31sqm? kasi kung di naman mashado mapapansin ang difference, ung may balcony n 28sqm n lang kukunin ko. thanks sa magaadvice :)

I would go for the 28sqm with Balcony... Somehow having a Balcony opens up the space.

Kelan expected turnover ng south tower anyone?

thanks maxmonash :)

actually i found out from my agent na wala daw entrance to the balcony from the living room, so prang ayoko n rin, naisip ko kasi parang balewala din kung sa bedroom ung entrance. anyway, i opted for the 1br corner unit.

thanks maxmonash :)

how much were you able to get your 1br corner unit? Is it in the North or South Tower?

There were a lot of buyers today. More than a hundred. We were lucky enough to get the first slot. Problem was a lot of units were closed even before the launch. Really unfair! Madami nakapila tapos closed na ibang units!

Good luck to those still at the office. I think its still the 55th buyer on queue.

brokerods > wow, good to know the project is really selling well.:banana:

BTW, would just like to ask for your thoughts - why do you think the South Tower is priced more expensive than the NT? NT will be delivered more than one year ahead than the ST. If I am a 2BR or 3BR unit buyer, why would i buy ST? Would you know of any advantage the ST has over the NT?

It's marketing. Usually later buildings are much more expensive. You buy early.. you get cheaper units, you buy late you get much more expensive units.

Like parking.. if you purchased early, 500k
if you purchased late 600k
if you purchase starting today, 640k

by the way the prices of north and south parking are already available with prices now between 610k to 640k.

Mataas demand, they can easily raise the prices. If you would notice, studios and 1BR are those that get the price increases. And parking :)

Good answer brokerods..
That's why I feel secure and assured that I bought my 3bdroom unit from you. You've been very helpful and professional since the day I was at my initial inquiring phase. Hope you be there until turnover sir..

Hi diphen! Thanks! Rest assured I'll be there with you and your mom until turnover and beyond. By the way, I've emailed you detailed unit layouts and dimensions for the units at La Verti

Cheers!

I picked up a 1 br with a balcony because I wanted the flexibility of renting it out to students in the area who will more likely be smokers. My other unit is a non-smoking rental but the tenants are able to smoke outside the unit because of the balcony.

^^Does any of the agents know the profile of the buyers so far? I dont think this is a good place to invest if your strategy is to rent it out to students. there are no schools of note near that place. DLSU and St. Benildes are too far. And there are already so many developments near those schools. I think the main market here so far are the Koreans? There are so many Koreans there especially in nearby Asiawealth and Balagtas.

Woah! Was the turnover date for La Verti delayed to September 2015? I thought it would be March 2014? That's an 18-month extension.

Nope.. The Sept 2015 turover date is for the South Tower which they just recently launched. The North Tower is still scheduled for turnover in March 2014.

Any Construction updates????

usually nung nagopen yung second tower, ilang percent yung increased niya from the first tower... interested kasi ako sa flair kaso i am considering na yung second tower since mas madami pagpipilian...

Hindi malayo ang La Verti from DLSU, CSB and St. Scho.

Isang jeep lang or walking distance pa nga eh. Delikado lang mag lakad dun sa part na yun kasi kokonti ang tao and mabilis ang mga sasakyan. La Verti is almost mid na ng Vito Cruz and Buendia(Gil Puyat), pero mas malapit sya sa Buendia ng konti.


Maybe hindi sya ideal pa rent sa mga students kasi mas maraming condos surrounding dlsu area na pag pipilian lalo na sa vito cruz na mas malapit sa mga school compared to La Verti.


But still, maganda pa rin ang location ng La Verti considering na malapit sya sa lrt station, makati and mga sakayan going to south and north. :)

mga 500 meters ba ang distance??? 500 more steps and 500 seconds time para ka maholdap???joke...joke....joke....

La Verti will be sought after later on once turned over as a good "residential condo" in the area. The vast space for its amenities is not something available on current condo developments in Taft Avenue. Its still walking distance to Buendia LRT station.... Im from La SAlle and I reckon the walk from La Verti to Buendia LRT is comparable to walking from DLSU Gokongwei Bldg to Vito Cruz Station.....

Im looking at furnishing my Studio Unit here and renting it out as soon.

i drove by here last night and i think their newly constructed showroom is now open! :banana:

Will take pictures of the construction site and showroom as soon as i get the chance to drop by.

Kahit saang place naman eh, kung tatanga tanga ka eh mahoholdap ka talaga. The question is, are you? joke joke joke :lol:

I do understand what makatiprime is trying to say.. as it is right now, that place is dark and scary at night with many sleeping vagrants. and there are pockets of shanties just nearby. I dont know if they are squatters but theyre very old and dilapidated houses. But that could change with the coming of a big project like La Verti. Life could pick up there once it gets going and soon that place could start to teem with activity. Seeing how strong La Verti's sales is said to be, other developers might just join in the fun and buy the nearby lots. Life is really a risk and a gamble. Youll never know.

I like the project. My concern is who will be the tenants? Are there enough students to absorb the supply?

I like the project. My concern is who will be the tenants? Are there enough students to absorb the supply?

one good possible renters of this project are families with students studying in the nearby schools. For instance, five years ago, my younger brother started studying in Lasalle. Instead of renting just a studio room for my brother, my parents decided to rent a bigger unit instead so that we can also join him there during weekdays since our offices are just nearby (makati). My brother now graduated from lasalle but we are still continuing our rent since i do not want anymore to be going home to our family house down south everyday. If La Verti would have been there, we would have stayed in this project because it is more family oriented. I am not comfortable living in a condo that is occupied mostly by students (maingay, magulo, etc). signs of old age perhaps?:nuts:

There are also people/students who want to live close to their schools - but not really too close to the point that your neighbors are your classmates/schoolmates that everytime you have to go outside you unit - you have to be at your best or otherwise some people from school might see you.. i am not sure if you get what i mean..?

With its location, not only can it cater to students (unlike the other taft-vitocruz projects) but also to young professionals. makati is just nearby - so the project would also attract families with parents both working who wants a place near to stay over (but cost is not as high as makati).

Even for students, i think some of them wouldn't mind being a short jeepney ride away from school - if you'll be going home naman to a resort style home instead of the usual dormitory-boxed type condos that are walking distance.

And take note, this is the only project so far in this area that has the resort style concept so it really has a unique selling point versus the other condo projects in the taft-VC.

So it's no surprise that this is dmci's fast selling so project so far (or so i heard from the agents).

i drove by here last night and i think their newly constructed showroom is now open! :banana:

Will take pictures of the construction site and showroom as soon as i get the chance to drop by.

Sales Office is scheduled to be open this week. Model units are studio and 2-BR. Hope you'll like the new sales office. :)

i think the selling point of la verti is the location. it is really the best located property of DMCI at the moment. very near to makati, very near to university belt - taft area, very near to roxas blvd and macapagal blvd, very near baclaran church also EDSA is very reachable thru LRT and the south area (las pinas, paranaque and cavite) is also very reachable via one ride using buses. parang sya yung center talaga.

also, in my opinion, this are is not much polluted like that of EDSA. siguro ang kelangan na lang is more lighting sa area, pero since its very near Buendia, lighted na rin naman siguro ung part na yun ng taft, ang problema na lang is yung way papuntang vito cruz.

Yup! Almost lahat ata ng sakayan going to north and south malapit sa La Verti. If you're going to MOA naman malapit lang din dun yung nga sakayan if tinatamad ka mag drive :D

Ito lang ata ang project ng DMCI na walang informal settlers sa tabi tabi :lol:


btw, papuntang Vito Vruz what do you mean?


If you have a car at gusto mo maka iwas sa traffic, Pwede ka dumaan sa kabilang side ng La Verti. Doon sa may amenities area sa Donada street. Kung commute, 8 minutes jeepney ride lang or if you want bus going to lawton and usually dun sa part na yun ng taft walang traffic, nagsisikip lang if you're approaching vito vruz na, abnormal kasi yung traffic light dun.

Kung natatakot ka naman mag jeep or bus. Mag LRT ka na lng goint to vito cruz :)

ah actually napansin ko lang, medyo hindi masyadong lighted ung way from la verti papuntang vito cruz. kaya i'm not sure kung safe maglakad dun pag gabi.
pero yung way from la verti papuntang buendia is ok naman. sobrang lapit nya s buendia and ok lakarin.

hopefully when la verti is finished, mas maganda na yung area :)

kaya mabilis mabenta ng mga units dito sa la verti, ang swerte ng mga agents dito, parang they dont need to exert much effort unlike sa mga other projects.
lucky din ang mga bumili hehe lalo na yung nakuha yung mga preferred nilang units, :)

one more thing pala, the size of the units are more generous than those of other projects within the taft area.
yung iba mga 20sqm lang ung size ng unit tapos sobrang mahal. i think cityland manila residences lang ung isa pang project na medyo ok yung price relative to the size of the unit.
pero syempre la verti offers much better amenities.

Yup madilim nga dun pag gabi and sa part na yun ng taft kokonti talaga ang tao kasi hindi pa commercialize yung part na yun ng taft. Puro old house and mga lumang establishments na vacant ang mga nandun.

Maybe 5 years from now ok na din dun :)

Thanks bro remarked, for your valuable comment. I am almost moved to get a unit here based on what you have stated. I am thinking of getting a 2 BR. I think it's more worthy. What's your take on this?

if you got the budget, that is much better. actually you'll have better choices when getting the 2BR units, what i heard is that the 1BR and the studio units were almost sold out na so baka masyado ng mahal yung mga natira or pangit na ung location.

If you'll be using the unit for your own, its better to get the 2BR pero i think ok din naman sya kung ipaparent out. :)

Yup, i would recommend for you to get a unit on this project. I've read your posts in other threads and you seemed to have been investing on many condo projects here. You should include DMCI in your portfolio and also in this area just to diversify. I should tell you also that its price per sqm is very cheap compared to other projects - a lot of room for price appreciation. Amenities are great and payments terms are also very friendly. Reason why I got a unit in Tower 1.

Thanks for the advice. In fact I have invested in a 2 BR in Flair Towers, another project by DMCI Homes. I am still considering this. I also have my mind on St Regis Residences and Sonata Private Residences. There are so many good projects but not much funds to satisfy this desire.

Any updated construction pictures?

i pass the site, it's far from la salle vicinity around 800 m to 1 km distance, it is nearer to buendia around 100 meters,this place is car owner friendly but not commuter friendly,there was a lot of bad elements in there before and after arelleno u

Im optimistic that this area would improve once La Verti is fully developed. Having entrance gates adds to the "security" of this condo development. I just hope the properrty and security management would be very strict in implementing the guidelines

I took some pics of the model unit ago, they were very nice!

This project has been getting really good feedback. Im glad I was able to get a unit here last year during its 1st week of selling.

I was told by my consultant from La Verti na 2+ meters from the road ung start nung base ng condo to anticipate flooding around the area. But what about the road access going to the condo? Taft Ave. is their back entry while Donada (?) Street is. Not sure about the latter but Taft is definitely flood-prone. Can anyone confirm this?

Excited nga ako matapos ang project. Maganda rin yung studio model unit. Hopefully DMCI delivers this before schedule. Kahit 2013 sana para magamit na :D

Any updates on La Verti construction??? hows the sales going on???

For monthly construction updates: La Verti Residences (http://www.dmcihomes.com/la-verti-residences.php?construction-updates=920)

By next week, Construction updates for March will be uploaded. :)

http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/5987/image002us.jpg

dropped by the site yesterday and indeed, construction is in full swing..

It would seem that they are building first the entire podium (up to 7th floor) of both the North and South Towers.. Afterwhich, they will then focus in building up the North Tower. As such, halos magkasunod nalang turnover ng north and south towers, only a year perhaps. Similar to what they did with Grand Towers (DMCI being Moldex's contractor) of which construction was faaaassssst!

By the way. Standard tandem layouts are already available for La Verti.

Looking at the pictures just remind me of something that I didn't noticed when I went there during the Showroom Launching is that walang exhaust ung kitchen.

Can anyone confirm or help me figure out kung may provision for it or kung saan sya idadaan?

Hi! For mid units, you have exhaust fan at the kitchen leading out to the corridor. End units have exhaust pipe provision for rangehood.

Is this confirmed? I looked at the latest Studio Unit and noticed it doesnt have an exhaust fan provision? I also checked the "Specs" that was sent with the Contract To Sell and there was no mention of this exhaust

However , in the La Verti Project Presentation, "Wall Mounted Exhaust Fan" was mentioned.

Hope someone can confirm with DMCI if there would be an exhaust fan in the kitchen area for Studio Units...

Yes it seems different from the presentation and the turnover finishes you see in the contract. Sa presentation meron, sa contract, wala. Matanong nga kung paano yun. I'll let you know

Below is the updated turnover specs effective Jan 2011

Hi brokerods.... let us know once you have confirmed with DMCI about the 'kitchen exchausts' on units here in La Verti.... The presentation and the turn over specs are different...

Any update on the Studio Unit Kitchen Exchaust?

Things are definitely looking up for the City of Pasay, also known as “the premier gateway to the Philippines,” especially the area along Taft Avenue which serves as a junction for migrants and visitors frequenting its thriving business and entertainment districts.

In the morning, the city gets swamped with throngs of people riding and alighting from the Light Rail Transit or the LRT, each wanting to reach their business and personal destinations on time; there are also those who take the extra effort just to reach Cartimar, a haven for bargain hunters as they make a mad dash for the lowest-priced branded shoes, bags and other fashion finds. In the evening, the city comes alive with a dazzling display of lights coming from its entertainment centers lined up along Taft Avenue.

The city is actually enjoying a “renaissance” of late – boosted further by economic growth and the ambitious plans of private entities hoping to set up bigger enterprises in the area – with its convenient location helping create many business opportunities.

In the end, all these exciting developments have given Pasay a favorable image – one of being a prestigious address for residents who wish to take advantage of its fantastic location. One of the developers that have recognized this impending demand is DMCI Homes, which fortunately, has its own project in the pipeline in a perfect location that links to the frenetic pace of the city.

La Verti Residences is the latest project by DMCI Homes, now officially known as the industry’s leading developer of mid-rise condo and resort inspired communities. After reaping success for its impressive portfolio of mid-rise condo projects all over the city, DMCI Homes translates its formula for success with La Verti Residences as a high-rise development that will offer the same low-density and resort-living advantages.

This two-tower high-rise residential condominium will emerge on a 1-hectare prime property, bounded by Donada St. on the West and Taft Ave. on the East. Majority of the property grounds is allotted to different lifestyle amenities that provide leisure options often lacking in other condo projects around the area. Each building will rise at 41 storeys including a 6-level parking podium, with the rest of the 35 floors reserved for residences.

DMCI Homes is the country’s premier triple A builder-developer that brings serviced, themed communities within reach of urban families who once had limited residential options, but still aspire to achieve a comfortable, enriching quality of life proximate to their place of work. For inquiries on DMCI Homes projects, visit the website: www.dmcihomescondo.com.

hi guys are the agents also in chrge for the commercial space rental for dmci projects ?

I doubt there will be commercial spaces sa baba since the building is within a compound. But who knows? It will be great if there's some convenience store sa ground floor.

Any updates on the kitchen exhaust?

Hi guys,

Is there available units for studio and 1 bedroom? PM me if there is

Thanks

any update on the kitchen exhaust provision on studio units?

ano ng update ng construction dito?

drove by the site just now on my way home... Construction is in the 2nd flr of d podium. They are building kc d entire podium muna, both of d 1st and 2nd bldgs. Once they reach d 7th floor, thats when they'll focus on building up d structure of d 1stbldg.

Thanks for the update joshua. appreciate it.

ilan ba ang poste nito sa ilalim?!

La Verti was launched 1st but seems like Flair Towers' construction, which was launched just recently, is way ahead....still hoping for an early turn over of La Verti.

How much can we rent out a fully furnished studio unit at Atrium level here later on?
My unit is at the 12th Floor Atrium Level, facing Manila Bay.

Nauna ata talaga ang flair in terms of construction - bago pa ilaunch ung project may hukay na ung site. alam ko sa la verti 42 months ata ung DP? sa Flair 39 months lang. so makes sense.

Ok Thanks.... 43 mos DP for the 1st Tower at La Verti when I got it last year

I just went there, dami pa rin available. Mayrun pa ring mga studio at 1 bedroom, ang dami pa. Inuuna lang ibenta mga pangit na location.

Hi, I'm selling our 2 bedroom unit at the North Tower. For those interested or knows someone who is looking for a unit at La Verti, please contact me at this number 0917-9631489. Thanks!

How much is the current selling price of Studio Units? Has it increased since they launched this last year?... got mine at 1.7M at the 12th Floor Atrium Level

i confirmed with my broker and said that all rooms will have an exhaust fan except for rooms which kitchen have windows. Said rooms without exhaust fan are normally placed near the staircase, in the east and west side parts of the building.

Hi, new to this thread. I bought a 1br unit a few months back. I hope that news is true coz it could mean I made a good decision buying there.

I was informed by my agent that there is going to be a 2% price increase by aug 1,2011.

me too i bought mine last march. I think its a good buy too. I got the 1 br with maids room.

Wow ! U have one of d big unit. I just got a 1br end unit in the north tower. It was a reopened unit. I opted to get it in the north tower for the earlier RFO turnover date.

hehe want to make the maids room into a walk-in closet hahaha

hi new neighbors, zamboanga and cherry! I also got a unit in the NorthTower. Hope to see other prospective owners posting in this forum to keep the thread alive.

Wow, hopefully the above figures are true.. if so, that would be impressive, considering most of the units sold here are actually 2 and 3 bedrooms unlike other projects na puro studio units!

I always pass by the construction site so i'll try to take pictures one of these days! =D

Hello, I'm selling my 2 BR unit at the North Tower facing Roxas Blvd. You just have to pay us the total amount we have paid DMCI plus the increase in value. We can negotiate on the price. Please contact 0917-9631489 for further inquiries. Thanks!

To those inquiring regarding kitchen exhaust, all units (including studio) will have provision for range hood exhaust ducted towards a fan at the balcony. All new high rise projects will have no more wall exhaust to the hallway.

Hi redmarked and cherrytickles!

To give you an update on La Verti's sales, as of July 31, North Tower is 82% sold while South Tower is 81%.

Both towers' studio and 1-BR units are almost sold out. Other unit types have a good number of sales as well, but not as much as the two smaller units.

Thanks!

thanks dmcimarketing for the updates.. impressive sales i should say! I heard La Verti is one of dmci's best-selling projects so far...

Also, i hope dmci could work out something in terms of garbage disposal. Many of the highrise condo projects now (including that of Dmci such as La Verti) doesn't have garbage chutes.. I really do not know why the recent move of doing away with chutes among all high rise condo projects.. Thus, nagiging problem ang garbage disposal since unitowners will just leave their garbages sa fire exit or doorsteps. i really hope dmci could do something about this since this is currently one major concern that i have...

Btw, cherrytickles, i was able to get a parking slot early this year - at P600K na! It used to be just P500K when they first opened the 2nd floor slots - kaso nagdalawang isip pa ako nun and nagkaubusan agad.. it took them months to open the rest of the parking slots - and lo and behold - P600K na! Now, i think nasa P640K na, am not sure.. so cherry, better get ur slot na...! =D

Oh nice figures nga maybe this is the reason why mejo mabilis ung construction last i saw they are on the 3rd floor podium eh

dropped by the construction site last weekend..
pleasant surprise to see my unit appreciated from 1.8Mio to almost 2.1Mio in less than a year!

Number of units left as of yesterday, mostly large cuts already and very few reopened studio units:
North Tower - 121
South Tower - 130

Am also surprised to see the South Tower selling very fast as the North Tower, to think unit cost in South Tower is actually more expensive than North Tower with even the North Tower to be turned-over 18 months ahead of South Tower.

Nice construction developments as well!

woo hoo! nagtaas na pala ang south tower din! would you have an idea how much ang price difference ng north vs south tower unit?

i bought a 1 br unit sa south tower (corner unit) at 37 sqm. how come wala sa sample unit yun? ang sample unit ng 1br is 31 sqm only?

i bought a 1 br unit sa south tower (corner unit) at 37 sqm. how come wala sa sample unit yun? ang sample unit ng 1br is 31 sqm only?

Normally developers don't create sample units for special units; corner units are special, same with deluxe, w/ maids room, etc.

1br ranges from 28.0 – 56.0.

ah..so special unit pala tong nakuha ko. i hope its at the edge of the building, not the one facing the north tower para maganda ang view :) thanks cherrytickles!

you bought a unit without even seeing the floor plan and knowing where it is located?? ikaw na ang compulsive buyer ng condo na parang namimili lang sa grocery.. hehehe..

anyway, sana nga ur unit is facing buendia para u'll have a good view of the South, Buendia Ave - u'll also get to have some good view of the Makati Skyline all the way to Manila Bay/MOA area.. only possible obstruction would be the Atrium Hotel Bldg - although medyo malayo na itong bldg na ito and di naman ganun ka-kaitasan..

I bought a 1 br corner with balcony unit sa south tower and made sure it was not facing the north tower... units ending in 08, 09, 10 &11. Bale the balcony is facing south with a good view of Makati, Paranaque, Pasay, Baclaran and farther is Cavite and Manila Bay (southwest) area.

oh crap. my unit ends in 01 so it might be facing the north tower. mabilisan kasi ang pagbili ko nito sabi kasi ng broker ko mauubos na daw ang mga units e kaya nag go na ako without going into the details. :(

just checked with my broker and he said na di daw facing north tower ang unit ko and it faces makati whew!

i picked a unit that is facing west for sunset and less noise coming from LRT

a DMCI agent told me that the La Verti is still DMCI's #1 project in terms of sales, from the day it was launched. hanggang ngyn, siya pa rin daw. =)

Went there last July to look at the site for the first time. My unit is in the north tower 11th floor but am worried that I maybe opening my window to the Lrt view or worse smack right across it :ohno:
My only hope is that 11th floor should be much higher than the Lrt.

i think the LRT would be around 3rd-5th floor of the building. Also, ive seen the latest construction and i've noticed that the building has high ceiling at the 1st floor for the lobby, so your unit being at the 11th would not be a problem, especially since you mentioned your unit is supposedly facing the manila bay (amenity area).

:) thats a relief ! Whew ! and oh my bad, my unit was supposed to be facing makati view and not manila bay as I mistakenly thought it was ( i just looked at the floorplan again).
Also, I just looked at the new pricelist ( aug 1 effective price increase) and my unit already gained 100+k from the time I got it back in April :banana:

Got this construction picture from the DMCI website

the picture i think is probably a month or two ago. I think they are already working on the 5th floor as of the moment. It's a long podium, both for the north and south towers, so medyo mabagal. But as soon as they start focusing on the North Tower when they reached the 8th floor, hopefully mas fast paced na ang construction ng building structure.

When i passed by last night, i checked again the height of the LRT vs the building structure, and the LRT line is actually up to the 2nd floor only of the building, so no worries to your 11th floor unit :) am not sure about the sounds though.

Hello, I'm selling my 2 BR unit at the North Tower facing Roxas Blvd. You just have to pay us the total amount we have paid to DMCI plus the increase in value. We can negotiate on the price. Please contact 0917-9631489 for further inquiries. Thanks!

Thanks redmarked :) i think i can live with d noise as long as its not across my window n i was hoping to have my unit interiorly decorated if i have d budget so maybe they can soundproof d place 2.

I checked the DMCI website, d pic was dated july 19, 2011 . They are moving fast then kung nasa 5th podium na sila :) the faster the better :)

Ive reserved a 2br unit facing manila bay. I havent decided if im going to live in it or have it rented out. Magkano ko pwede iparent out yung 2br 3 years from now?

My initial plan was to convert the 2br into 1br (lalakihan ung kitchen) pero sabi ng agent ko bababa ang resale value so retain ko nalang ung 2 br. Problem ko ngayon kung san ilalagay ung washing machine.. Walang dedicated water supply and drain for WM anywhere sa unit.. Ano workaround nyo dito?

If your washing machine is beside your kitchen sink, you can have a portable temporary solution. You can temporarily attached your washing machine water intake host to the kitchen faucet and clipped the washing machine drain host to the kitchen sink. If your washing machine is not beside your kitchen sink, you can buy extendable host attachments for both the water intake and drain, or you can even place your washing machine on rollers so you can push it beside the kitchen sink whenever you plan to use it.

For a more permanent solution, have a plumber split your water supply pipe under your sink and run the split to your washing machine intake. and split the drain under the sink and run the split to your washing machine drain host.

The kitchen sink is flanked by counter cabinets.. I was thinking of putting the WM inside the bathroom (behind the door), theres a drain there, but no water supply. Pwede bang irequest sa DMCI na dagdagan ng water suply dun? Pero kung di naapprove.. Kaya bang gawin un ng tubero? (sisirain ung wall to install pipes?)

Kayang gawin ng tubero iyan, kaya lang kapag babakbak ka na ng dingding, kailangan mo ng permission sa Property Management company. Maingay kapag bumabakbak sa dingding, kaya medyo bisto rin at mahirap itago. he he he. Puwede rin sa labas ng pader yung split pipe, kaya lang pangit tingnan.

I don't think there will be any objection by Property Management to your plans. Installing a washing machine is a necessity.

what is the likelihood na aapprove ng DMC ung request ko for them to install additional water supply there when they are finishing my unit? ano bang requests yung inaapprove nila usually?

thanks so much for your advice. i am a first time condo buyer.

sorry, I'll leave others to answer your question, since I don't have a unit there and unfamiliar with their process.

If I were a betting man, your chances of approval is 99.99% :) As I said earlier, installing a washing machine is a necessity, and I've seen pictures in this SSC forum from other unit condo owners in other projects who installed washing machines in their washrooms. I'm sure your Developer and Property Management recognize the need for condo dwellers to have this done.
