wow box kung box

:lol:

wow more condos on SM land.. nice.. yung nga lang boxy talaga...

box is the best for cheap construction cost

I wish they think out of the box.

^^ i like the boxes though. when we look back on their portfolio, it will be their signature. SMDC = Box = residential bldg.

We may coin it in the future as... Q: Where do you live? A: I live at the box called shell, just across the box called sea. :lol:

and fronting the box shore

Mahilig tlaga sa box si Henry Sy. Kc dyan cya yumaman. Shoe boxes(ladies shoes) dyan cya nagsimula.

Well at least we know SM saves money on designers and architects. What are they thinking?

I think its their preferred design. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I'm sure they have a plan. Maybe they want the residential condos to look similar but jazz it up with their business buildings.

If I was an investor why would I choose Shell over Sea right now? They look the same at almost similar location.
I guess we'll find out why when they release more details about Shell.

It's ok if they transfer the savings to their clients, resulting in cheaper units. Do they?

It's ok if they transfer the savings to their clients, resulting in cheaper units. Do they?

They're not cheap though. It's about 105K per SQM. Same prices as BGC condos.

Is it just me or does this look like Sea Residences?

It looks like Sofitel Phil. Plaza. Wind Residences in Tagaytay is much better compared to Sea and Shell Residences.

I have both Sea and Shell Residences. Sea is obviously better. But buying Shell is because I had the early pick. I managed to reserve 4 units just about 10 minutes after the price was released. So I got 2 choicest units. For me it's about getting good units in a development. The price is secondary.

gaganda rin po yan pag marami na sila.. more buildings more fun po. super modern tignan ng sm complex kung makumpleto na hehe

wow that is a very dense layout right there. And just too bland facades..

http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/6044/renderx.jpg


GAWD!

Looks blahhh


Simple without elegance; Expensive and it doesn't even look grand



Congrats SM, another cookie-cutter project :bash:

http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/2342/ta2f.jpg

condo units ba yan o hospital wards? efficient kung efficient ang layout!

This looks so, ah, ordinary or should i say, "underwhelming" for a more than 100k/sqm property... Cityland looks better than this at half the price. Only a die-hard SM fan would love this.

RATING: (0 to 5, with 5 being the highest) 1 star. Good location. Basic design, too basic in fact. Overdense. Would be reasonable if priced at around 70k or even lower.
Advice: Buy elsewhere.

Where in the Bay? Sole Mare?

they look simple, but the location is good. malapit sa manila bay, airport at mall. kung matuloy sports arena at casino lalong maganda. at isa pa malayo siya sa mga residential area. di kagaya ibang development, ok pag your inside your property, paglabas mo sa compound dadaan ka sa mga squatter areas.

Pwede na po bang mag pa reserve at anong unang tower ilaunch?

SoleMare's a bit better, but not by much.

If Shell should be priced at 70k per sqm then how much should Sole Mari be? 72k per sqm?

Location is very good

Location is very good

I think at least for the next five years.

UPDATE:

management decided to change the lay-out of buildings C and D. Shell might be offering smaller units either 24 SQM or 20 SQM. Although it's not yet official, if this happens SHELL will definitely cater to a large market and will be more affordable to our kababayan's out there. They can invest in a 1BR unit and enjoy the luxury of living close to Mall of Asia, if they want bigger units they can just combine the units.

Looks very massive, '70's government building. I find it clean, though.

Sands Residences is better, as well as taller, though, I think this will be built in Manila's bayfront ara. Sea, Sand and Shell. SSS. Kulang pa, Stone.

Anyone else think they might have a hard time selling units? The design is not good, the price is too high and they probably haven't even sold out Sea yet.

They have only launched Towers A and B. My agent just informed me that everything from 7th floor and above are gone and the 2 BRs with garden on the ground floor that I enquired were also taken. Those 2 BRs were priced at 8 to 10 million.

Oh ok. I stand corrected then. Actually, I'd like for it to sell. For you and for the fact that it will compliment Hamilo really well. I was thinking of you buddy when I wrote that post btw. LOL!

The reason I thought sales might be slow was cause of this post. Reading between the lines tells me that when a developer starts making smaller units it means sales are lower than anticipated and they need to make the units more affordable.

I don't get the whole 20 sqm thing. The unit is the size of a shoebox. I saw a 20 sqm unit at the SM's office with my wife and we laughed. I guess I'm just used to more space.

The units get sold faster this way. If you find 20 and 24 sq m too small you will buy 2 units. So the developer is able to sell 40 or 48 sq m each time instead of 36 sq m.

Thanks! Never thought about it that way.

Thanks! Never thought about it that way.

Further, the 20 m units will move faster as they are unlikely to attract VAT. Buyers can buy 2 or 3 adjoining units for bigger space and save on the VAT.

i like the location of Sea residences

is it true that smdc uses gypsum board in between units not concrete wall cement?...

i like the location of Sea residences



Shell and Sea should have been planned higher. I had a meeting at One E-Com where I saw an awesome view of the sea and mountains on the other side of the bay. Sooooooooooooo beautiful. It could be more beautiful from higher floors.

Yeah I've been in those offices. Great view!

But because of the airport I'd imagine you can't have high buildings around there.

Thats the thing.. They have this height limit because of its proximity to the airport. But those views can be had with any of the buildings along Roxas Blvd..

would anyone be interested if there is a penthouse unit in Shell?:lol:

haha... a penthouse unit with an infinity pool or a jacuzzzi?:lol:

just heard that there might be only 2 units, 1 in building A and 1 in building B @ 118K/sq. :ohno:

May price increase naba dito

Heard that they are reducing the size of the 1 BRs except those facing the Bay. It a pity that the unit numbers of the 2 units I have taken have to be changed. Price increase? The price was already high when I selected them months ago. More than 100k per sqm.

nagwawaldas ng pera ang kumuha sa shell, a 50 sqm box could reach upto 5-6 million? wow,sa mandaluyong overviewing makati and manila bay...5,5 m 5 br at 3 bath...around 240 sqm lot pa...

natuwa naman ako.. kala ko napalitan ang name ng sea residences so bukod pa pala ang shell residences.. hindi kaya mga employees ng shell ang titira dito? :bash:

halos kumpleto na, what's next? shore residences?:nuts:

For me, the price is way tooooo expensive.

For me, the price is way tooooo expensive.

That could be the reason why they are reducing the size. So that they may appear cheaper. I bought them because land is scarce in the Bay.

Hi, I'd like to ask which of the two developments is better... Sea Residences or Shell Residences?

Thank you.

Hi, I'd like to ask which of the two developments is better... Sea Residences or Shell Residences?

Thank you.

Depends on what you are looking for. If you want the view of the Bay, Sea will give you a better view. As for Shell, there are fewer units having the view of the Bay. Only those on the 12 floor and higher gets an unobstructed view. The good thing is the 1 BRs facing the Bay at Shell are larger than those at Sea. 36.15 sqm against 28 sqm.

Hi! we are looking for a 2 bedroom unit at Sea Residences. Please PM me and let's discuss. Thanks.

There are alot of forumers here asking just for the fun of asking.

Hi if there's anyone selling their 2 bedroom unit at Sea Residences preferably Tower A or Tower B, please let me know how I can get intouch with you. Thanks.

Magkano napo ang 29.37 sqm sa tower A sa shell? Thanks

I have reserved 2 one BRs facing Manila Bay on a high floor and they are next to each other and measuring 36.15 m each.

Hi if there's anyone selling their 2 bedroom unit at Sea Residences preferably Tower A or Tower B, please let me know how I can get intouch with you. Thanks.

The 2 BRs in Shell are going at about 8 million and those in Sea err going at 6 million. They are in demand and supply is limited. Please pm me if you are prepared to pay this price.

manila,manila,manila

I understand. But a pessimistic view is regressive for your country. No 2 units are the same. We are not investing in shares here.

Parang Sea and design

Thanks, but the unit price is off our budget. We are looking at P4.5M-P5M for a unit with 2 bedrooms.

Look for dmci projects for 2 bedroom units with that budget.

Absolutely correct. I took a 2 BR fro
DMCI for only 3.3 million.

Hi,

Is there anyone who would like to sell their units in Sea facing outside not amenity view, from 11th flr -UP. Preferably 29 sqm. or bigger, Please message me for your offer. Thanks.

@Leroy366 - Shell Residences is already in LOI stage - expected release of LTS on October 2011. Sales right now is up.. there was already an initial price increase. We are expecting this to be as successful as Sea Residences or even better since there are smaller unit cuts as small as 26sqm. Sea residences Building A and B is sold out. Building C to F - very few units left.

The Bay Area Development which includes the Pagcor City and the SM Mall of Asia Complex can now be considered as the next big thing in property development.

iba talaga marketing today. hanep! parang "hey! we are expecting this to be as successful as sea residence that's why we made the building more denser. also it has smaller units, so its going to be "more crowded" (ahem) more lively pala! get one now!" :lol::lol::lol:

Advice to fellow investors: Before you buy, try to get feedback from least one existing unit owner of SEA Residences. I am quite sure that you time invested in doing so might be your most valuable investment!

@keyo168 - hmm I don't think it would be that dense - 15 floors lang sya with 5 elevators per tower.

@friendlypirate - agree to that or they may actually visit the Sea Residences showroom at the site para makita nila yung delivery ng Sea Residences from there they will have an idea how Shell will be delivered.

imho it doesn't fit well with the over-all design ng mall of asia complex. mukha syang tenement sa perspective or prison sa floor plan ang laki ng courtyard pwede gumawa ng world record jan ang dancing inmates

The amenities design hasn't been finalized yet.. but from what one of the project engineers said during an orientation, they wanted the design to have a beach-like feel to it. They said that the ground floor have restaurants from which tenants can buy drinks/food that can bring within the amenities area, but again nothin's final yet:)

@nicotech lol

@Ciax No I don't mean the showroom or even the actual units. I mean talk to the Unit owners and interview them, ask them the experience they have gone through

@keyo168 - hmm I don't think it would be that dense - 15 floors lang sya with 5 elevators per tower.

oh! so you think 55 units per floor isn't dense? LOL how "dense" is dense to you?

if lahat kayo day job, at sabay sabay na aalis ng 6:30 am, ano magiging itsura ng hallway? dapat 5:45 pa lang nasa elevator ka na. dapat lawakan nila ang hallway. i think that the engineers already took this into consideration. yung unit sa bridge is a nice touch. ganda.

Hey guys, I'm selling my 28.5 sqm one bedroom unit at SM Sea Residences. Paid for 2 years now, assume balance. 85% paid. It is on the 14th floor of building A, facing the amenities. From what I gather units are now selling at 3.3 million. It also comes with a parking slot that I bought seperately for 750,000.00. I'm willing to sell both for 3.7m(3.2cash then assume the balance of around 500k) I will shoulder all transfer fees and taxes. Turnover is August 2011. You can reach me at 09178507292. Thanks!

Keyo, di pa ito dense. According to SMDC standards, yun Green residences tama lang in terms of density :cheers:

Price increase of 3% will apply in August 15, 2011

...

Price increase of 3% will apply in August 15, 2011

I'll be very surprised if the price increase will push through. The fact the U.S. Fed Reserve announced it was freezing key interest rates at near zero for two years, and without any major monetary stimulus program to accompany the freeze, the news initially was seen as portending a stalled economy, which translates into lower industrial activity, reduced energy consumption and trying times ahead.

The increase will push through but it's a dumb move. But who knows? If SMDC thinks people will pay more than who am I to judge? The smart move is that they make tiny units. 20-35 sqms. So the average Filipino sees this and thinks they don't have to dish out a lot of money and they own property.

SMDC said that they have sold 540 units which means that they have already reached their quota for a new wave of price increase.

I walked down to MOA the other day from the Heritage hotel and walked past the Sea and Shell building sites...its a great area, location, location, location as they say..it seems a small price to pay for such a great area.

Looking forward long term there has to be potential for substantial capital growth in these condos...at today's prices.
