Dear all

I know I am a little late in thanking Zahirnya but I am new to this site.

Thank you Zahirnya for being active and keen supporter. I hope you carry on the good work. This is important for owners like us who are not in KL at this moment in time.

I like to thank those who have also shown their keen support and interest and please carry on posting as much information, comments and photos.

I thank you all

with best regards

Hi Savanna2008

Thank you for the welcoming. Took me a while to read all 27 pages.

Calling all Havannanese - we are very keen to know if anyone has any further information on the CF? When and how soon can we collect our keys?

Any comments or information are greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

Yeah! We need more pictures please.....begging...

I couldn't believe it when I heard Savanna is already at 31 floor stage...and bank already asking money for the interest. So, this means Savanna is progressing well advance of their timetable. Frightening but delightful.....

Hi Woofmy, a lot of soon-to-be Serimayans dying for the condo photos... pity everyone @ overseas asking to see their 'new & beautiful' condo...

can u pls kind to arrange 'someone' to snap some progress photos of Savanna & Havanna ..........i'm here wanted to take the pic but still working on to get my own digital camera 'no lui' ...... I like the black color NIkon la...but ridiculously expensive...... :) ...

I am going to Lanai to fix some stuff for my aunt place. And i will snap some photos of Havanna & Savanna for you all. Since I also bought a unit in Havanna that makes me also "kan cheong" :scouserd:

I will satisfy your needs tomorrow!!! muahahaha...wait for the pix! :cheers:

Took this photo today. Hope it will satisfy some owners before someone upload more pics tomorrow.

i believe the guys who got bashed is a local coz when he was pleading for help at the guard house, i didn't hear any foreign accent. don't know what happened but the fight started at the lrt station, he ran across the road while being chased by a group of guys... he ran to the guard hse asking the guard to call the police while being hit by motorcycle helmet. scary...

this morning, saw some blood stains on the road...

hmm..feel sorry for that guy. i hope his okay. guess his not a resident of SM then..

huh... isn't kampung warisan nearer???

Re ^^ and other recent posts to that effect:

That sounds very scary, guys & gals! I worry about your well being and safety. :( Punks and loiterers can easily turn into vandals and criminals. :runaway:

I want you all to stay well and not be harmed in any way! :angel1:

You guys heard about the princess that got killed by her own son as she tried to stop him attacking her semi paralysed husband in Pahang?

The news travelled to London as well, pretty shocked about that.....

2 Air-Cons x 30 X 1 RM/8hrs = 60
2 Air-Cons X 8 weekend days X 1 RM/8hrs = 16
Fridge = 20
Water Heater X 2 X 30 X 0.50 = 30
TV = estimated 5 bucks
Lights + Fans = 20 bucks
Aquarium = 5 bucks
Washer + Dryer = 20 bucks

expensive lah...the previous tariff is a bit cheaper..RM125 plus plus aje :(

how come ur calculation got 2 aircond x 8 weekend one :? tak paham liao
u have 2 rooms with aircon right??? one month got 4 weekends and there are 2 days in each weekend. so.. 8 weekend days lor.

weekends, you at home, so aircon on more than 8 hrs mah. so additional charge lor

what other half? what? hallo? hallo? hahaaaaa.... :bash: :bash:

err...did i say something wrong :lol:

haha..go la n tackle her if u like.

free pinggan??? Don;t throw??? I borrow broom, give me the pinggans

U dont have enough pinggan ke? hahah...buy aje la..IKEA one so cheap mah..RM2 aje. So economical. :)

u have 2 rooms with aircon right??? one month got 4 weekends and there are 2 days in each weekend. so.. 8 weekend days lor.

weekends, you at home, so aircon on more than 8 hrs mah. so additional charge lor

I usually use fan aje ma..

Yes, I know what u mean..but i refer back to your calculation :

2 Air-Cons x 30 X 1 RM/8hrs = 60
2 Air-Cons X 8 weekend days X 1 RM/8hrs = 16

the first one already included weekday n weekend ma..1 month have 30 what...so, the 2nd one kinda like redundant..dont u think so?

Okay...thats a deal that..when is the upgrading..end of this year kah :lol:

Damansara Perdana quite far...n its a bit too expensive am i right..

dont worry la...u will always see me now n then one ;)

Somehow after reading Damasara Perdana forum, I would think twice,maybe more before purchasing a unit there....soo much complaint about the Mk Land develepor, their contractors, their managing computer , security guards....

Abandon project also.....

The latest story is more frightening....security guards (drug user :eek2: !) in one of the unit there and somehow felt from 12th floor running to get away from the SB(still don't know what that means, police division tackling drugs maybe)

Poor Zahir! :pet:

That must have been an awful night, with very little sleep. :( I hope you'll be OK though. :)

Ok...some latest news of Havanna which I got when I called the developer to ask on the progress and whether there will be any possibility of an earlier than expected delivery. Seems that the toilet seats have been installed (hehe...hooray ;p) and the sinks are in the process of being installed now and the tiling works are being done....so keeping fingers crossed for scheduled delivery at the end of the year

I hope the quality is up to par. Anybody knows hows the finishing of Havanna? Dont want another case "ada gaya tapi mutu tak ade...." :runaway:

I guess so. Pardon me for being so ignorant :(

Aw, Zahir! :hug: That has nothing whatever to do with ignorance. :) It's just that you have a hard time imagining that someone would want pictures of a carpark entrance at an unfinished building ... :dunno:

Any carpark lot for rent? I need one urgently. Tolonglah.....I dont want to park my car outside and obviously I wont park indiscriminately. :)

Hi Am New and have been following comments on this project. Turns out some units left for Savanna. Any pro and cons on this place? Guess I need to be convince before signing the S & P. Help :) :)

Welcome to the forum cjcyy.

Pro n cons. Hmm..I think you have to read from thread 1 till now, the eventually absorb all the pro n cons about SM. But do you have anything specific that you might want to know in details :?

My Britney will be parked there next year :)

Thanks Zahirnya??? Having stayed at a number of apartments the past couple of years - my biggest concern would be the management - Kondoservis. In terms of design and reputation of Tan & Tan - I dont think it is a major concern. Is Kondoservis receptive to feedback from owners? How have they been upkeeping the place so far? Any issues on cashflow? Also would you be kind enough to share with me the house rules?

Hi... minutes will be released... but need some time :) dun worry... if your email address is correctly captured, you should receive it

No worries Zahirnya - your assistance in taking the photos are greatly appreciated and thanks SeaFan :)

Anybody else ada photos lagi ta? especially on the new pool between Havanna and Savanna? Sila sila....I saw one very long time ago..this was only a hole in the ground then.


cheers

coolgal.

speaking of kondoservice - can anyone confirm how much are you now (Lanai & Jelatek residents) paying as per sq. ft?

Cheers very true, coolgal. we only have a little pool too small for weekends and evening, and a gym w/o a tv :( U had my answer. oh yes, and the garden lights and water features switching off at 6pm which make no sense but the mgmt will tell u 'oh, we are trying to save cost'

very true, coolgal. we only have a little pool too small for weekends and evening, and a gym w/o a tv :( U had my answer.

By, do u really need a tv inside the gym?

by,

why would the management turn ON the garden lights before 6pm? isnt that a waste?

by,

really? hmmm...that will be such a total waste especially with the new electrical tariff :(

As for me when I work out I do not need a TV coz i will put on my own headset and playing my favaurite tunes ! . What is important to me is all machines are all in good functional condition and clean.
I don't mind paying the managment fee as long as the services what I am getting are reasonable and security is my top priority :cheers:

Is a chicken and egg situation , u don't pay and u won't get the best service and vice versa.

They turn the lights OFF at 5pm in order to save electricity???! Now that's truly weird. :dunno:

Have a question about renovation as planning to do some basic renovation (ceiling, kitchen, wardrobe etc) when my Havanna unit is ready. Hope the Lanai and Jelatek owners who have already moved in can help by sharing your experience. I would like to find out if the Management Corporation has an official interior designer or contractor which they recommend for Seri Maya and how much security deposit we need to pay if we use our own contractor/ID firm for renovation. Much thanks for your feedback :p

by,

why would the management turn ON the garden lights before 6pm? isnt that a waste? Opsss...my typo. Ok, it goes like this : 1. compound lights ON daily from 7pm to 12 midnite. 2. water features from 9am to 5pm. 3. lights for dummy water features from 7pm to 12 midnite. This is what the mgmt said. However, u may notice that the lighting in linear park is off way before midnite, leaving that patch reall dark. the 3ft tall square ligting leading to entrance to block N also not ON most of the time.

By, do u really need a tv inside the gym? Need. No so bored mah. Further, no costly to install one, i mean considering this is a multi million project but...carry my own mp3 or whatever, too clumpsy for workout lah...

Need. No so bored mah. Further, no costly to install one, i mean considering this is a multi million project but...carry my own mp3 or whatever, too clumpsy for workout lah...

You should give the idea to the management. It's not a bad idea after all. I used the gym today for the 1st time. Yeah..it so dull..luckily have my Ipod.

But I honestly dont think having a laminated floor is suitable for the gym...

1. there are not official interior design or contractor for SM. But previously there one unit in Lanai 1 been turn into a showroom by this contractor but I also heard that there were also some complaint n dissatisfaction about the end product by them. So...not entirely sure about that.

2. Deposit of RM1000, refundable. You have to enclosed it with your rennovation form. N also RM30 for contractor fees.

I went there to see one unit in Lanai which was for sale around 280k last year with a friend and also saw the showroom. We asked the designer (I got his business card somewhere) roughly the cost to renovate exactly as it was in the show room and he told me around 70k-80k.

My friend (also a designer) told me after it was really overpriced. The quality of the materials and the furniture didn't justified the priced mentioned by the designer of the show room. My friend said for around 50k, you can get better.

Now someone mentioned they heard (rumours..heheheh, I have to be careful here) the clients unsatified with the ends products by them too, so I better make sure I get a good contractors from recommendation..

Hi everyone

I did not realise that one has to fill a Form and pay a deposit both to Management and Contractor.

My questions-:

1. What sort of notice do we need to give or have by filling this Form
2. If I get my own Contractor, do I still need to pay the 'Contractor Fee' and why and to whom?

I am abroad at the moment and will have very limited time to complete the renovation (1 month in KL). Should I be completing the Renovation Form prior to coming back or can I submit the Form when I come back for the CF (might result in delaying the commencing of the work).

Any comments are welcomed.

zahir,

i am still curious how you installed a fan at your balcony? what happen to your light or did you buy the fan which comes with a lamp?

zahir,

i am still curious how you installed a fan at your balcony? what happen to your light or did you buy the fan which comes with a lamp?

Balcony? i dont have a fan there. u can either use the existing light power point for your fan n then put your light on the wall or u can use the fan that comes with a lamp, which IMHO is extremely ugly.

farid,

i remember redaing in ealiert post that you had a few additonal fan hooks installed, i thot it was for the balcony.

i agree, those fan/light combo is really ugly

yeah. my unit originally came with one fan hook only. so during renno, i asked my contractor to install another 4. 3 for the bedroom n the other 1 on the dining hall..

Hi guys, I don't know whether this has been covered; but is it true after Savanna; Seri Maya will have another launch of a so call 'super bachelor pad' condo?

Any details of that should there is one?

Yes. It will be under Tan n Tan development but not part of Seri Maya.

No details yet.

1. usually in order to start your rennovation, you do have to fill up this rennovation form n submit it to the management office. only after their approval u will be able to start your rennovation. the result will usually varies, I got my result after 3 days.

2. yes, u still have to pay the contractor fee. you have to pay to the management together with ur rennovation form as in that form itself there will be a column that u need to fill in regards towards contractor's information.

logic behind this : the first time, ur contractor want to start the rennovation, they have to register at the guard house, and the management will issue your contractor a letter authorising, him n his workers to come in n renno ur unit..

hmm..which one is water feature n which one is dummy water features??

Yeah..noticed about that too..the Linear Park lighting n also the entrance lighting bro, if u go to entrance to block N and Lanai I, as u walk up the ramp, u will have the 'water feature' on ur left, and there's another similar on your farther right, juz rite b4 going into Lanai I, same shape with some stone below but no water, nite time only lighting. It looks so funny to have 2 big piece of 'blocks' sitting there when both of them not function - neither the water nor the lighting :(

I went there to see one unit in Lanai which was for sale around 280k last year with a friend and also saw the showroom. We asked the designer (I got his business card somewhere) roughly the cost to renovate exactly as it was in the show room and he told me around 70k-80k.

Now someone mentioned they heard (rumours..heheheh, I have to be careful here) the clients unsatified with the ends products by them too, so I better make sure I get a good contractors from recommendation.. hi there, without prejudice, most of the ID guys react the same way u mentioned - i.e after seeing another's work and price, they will usually claim that they can do better with lower price. Wait until you have him do your unit before you know if his claim is legitimate. Opsss....looks like i'm offending a lot of guys here :runaway:

Guys, i got a called from a fellow resident in Block L telling me that his 7 mth pregnant wife kena 'denggi fever' last Friday. Lucky both mother and baby recovered. The case reported to hospital and mgmt, those guys in the vicinity, any action like fogging or spraying lately? Everybody please stay alert loh...

or u can use the fan that comes with a lamp, which IMHO is extremely ugly.
O yay! O how VERY true! :okay:

While the idea behind those things is OK (combining two features into one gizmo), uglier things were hardly ever invented! :eek:


@coolgal: if you have chosen your contractor, I guess it wouldn't hurt to go through the routine with management well ahead of your arrival. That way you'll be ready to get things started right away once you get to KL. Good luck with all that renovation work! :)

hmm..but there was some fogging n spraying activities going one last week...i think it was on Tuesday as I reach home a bit early from work. but honestly, nowadays. even in my floor i can feel mosquito..don't know where it come from :(

hmm..but there was some fogging n spraying activities going one last week...i think it was on Tuesday as I reach home a bit early from work. but honestly, nowadays. even in my floor i can feel mosquito..don't know where it come from :( most likely is from the SM construction site & the army blocks. If u ever go the B2 near to the Havana/Savana there, u will be stormed with mosquitoes!!

i don't think fogging n spraying activities can solve all problems. Probably the mosquitoes also immune to all "chemical" stuff.. need to solve the root cause which is mos breeding ground. 2 obvious breeding areas: contruction site and the monsoon drain between sm and kampung warisan. if you go there, you can see tons of mosquitoes fying around. whose fault? MPAJ? Bintang buana due to poor design ? or Kondoservis?........ :bash:

I'm counting down the days to the handover of Havanna, can't wait :p With regard to renovation, have any of you have any experience with Signature Kitchen? I'm thinking about using them cos I've heard of their reputation and good after sales service but first I'm going to take a look at what their quotation is like and maybe make a comparison. Think there's a Home Design Exhibition in KLCC Convention Centre next month, would be a good time to go looking around for renovators :p

Hehe...just curious what's the "ceiling flight" of mosquitoes.....if my unit is at the middle levels (between 12-18 floors), hope those Mozzies can't reach so high up :)

i think u r not spared of this..even though my friend lives on 19th floor, got mos on his uint too...these mos have super turbo engine to fly up there...

seen them take the lift - sumpah!

waa....now we're mozzies expert haa...."ceiling flight" :crazy2: Damn...you are really into this isnt it?

anyway nyamus (arabic for mozzies) doesnt fly and hover up to 200ft but then again they do take elevators...heee. Basically you can even find mozzies on observation deck at KL tower. Mozzies are heat-seaking insects too. So those of you warmer than the rest are prone to get more blood sucking buddies! :righton:

hmmm.....surprisingly there are no mozzies on my unit on the 19th floor at Venice Hill despite it being next to the jungle and also there are 6 construction sites surrounding the area. And I always sleep with all my windows and doors open as the breeze from the nearby mountains of Hulu Langat are very refreshing! :okay:

There are also no flies. But certain types of moths and bees could reach that height :yes:

Hi EscapeKL... just to share 2 cents of thoughts.

when we were doing up our unit we went to SK as well based on the hearsay reputation, etc etc. must say that their quotes are very much higher as compared to Kian Classic based on similar designs, materials. Ended up we opted for KC and till today r happy wt our kitchen cabinets. However, SK does offer some pretty good picks for wardrobes... a selection of mix & match ready wardrobes to fit the bedrooms.

Well, this is just us.. am sure others may have other thots too. & I suppose at the end of the day.. it's what u r looking for and what u need for your home. Shop around first.

Cheers :)

Hi SeaFan

Thanks for the suggestion. Maybe, we should have an approved & favoured List of Contractors. Those who have had good experience with their current Contractors, please put them forward.

Any volunteers please to hosting this list? All we need are their coordinates to be posted on this site-:

Name of Person
Company Name
Address
Tel & Email Address

Thank you and cheers :)

do u need to register multiple forms if you have a few contractors (if working around the same time), wet works, electrical, carpentry, etc

KianClassic only assembles right? all the items is premanufactured... all inthe catalog. if you want anything extra (like normal cabinets) they cant...

same like Maxima... all assembles only :bash:

Thanks for the info :) I went to the Signature Kitchen outlet in Hartamas shopping centre yesterday and had a discussion with them, will go through their quotation and see if it's reasonable. Was quite impressed with their showroom and I also like that they can do "all in one" type of renovation, not only kitchen and wardrobe, but also ceiling, internal decoration, curtains etc. But in the end the $$$$ factor is most important, so have to make sure their quote is within my budget. Will also get a few other quotes for comparison

Good morning,

I am an older, single American considering retiring to KL. I've identified Seri Maya as a possible unit I'd be interested in. I like a unit on the LRT as I don't want to be bothered with driving. I need extra bedroom space for children (grown), family and friends when they visit.

I have a number of questions......

1. What shopping is within walking distance?

2. Does SM have a mini market like some other complexes?

3. Do other Americans, Canadians, Aussies or Brits live there?

4. Is it a safe neighborhood, can one walk at night without threat?

5. Are there any restaurants/hawkers within walking distance?

6. What is the average p/f rent? Electric? Water?

7. Is high speed internet and cable tv available?

8. Have pool, hot tub and gym on property?

I know that's a lot of questions from a stranger. If you have any answers to one or all, I'd be in your debt. Thanks

Good morning,

I am an older, single American considering retiring to KL. I've identified Seri Maya as a possible unit I'd be interested in. I like a unit on the LRT as I don't want to be bothered with driving. I need extra bedroom space for children (grown), family and friends when they visit.

I have a number of questions......

1. What shopping is within walking distance?

2. Does SM have a mini market like some other complexes?

3. Do other Americans, Canadians, Aussies or Brits live there?

4. Is it a safe neighborhood, can one walk at night without threat?

5. Are there any restaurants/hawkers within walking distance?

6. What is the average p/f rent? Electric? Water?

7. Is high speed internet and cable tv available?

8. Have pool, hot tub and gym on property?

I know that's a lot of questions from a stranger. If you have any answers to one or all, I'd be in your debt. Thanks

Good Morning Drews50. Hope you are okay back there...;)

For your question :

1. walking distance, I have to say Giant Supermarket. If by car, you can reach Jaya Jusco, Carrefour or Tesco within 10-15 minutes drive.

2. mini market, at the moment know. but there is a plan to have one when the rest of the complexes completed n its in the pipeline..

3. yes. but im not sure about the number. happen to cross n bumped into them in the compound sometimes ;)

4. i have to say that it is a safe neighbourhood. i live in this area for 5 years already, n so far i didnt face any difficulties, but its always a good thing to look after yourself n be cautious

5. yes. there are good number of restaurant n hawkers around. on monday, there is a 'pasar malam' or night market as well on the other side of the road..

6. im not sure about renting..but so far my electric bill is around RM150++ per month n water around RM20++

7. yes. both are available. broadband connection n build in cable tv connection

8. yes, SM do have pool, hot tub??? hmm...i dont think jakuzzi is the same as hot tub rite..n yes, a gym too.

Thank you, Zahirnya, for your reply.

It looks like Seri Maya should be high on my list. It has everything I need safety, convenience, shopping, food and the LRT.

What goes on at the 'pasar malam??

He..he.. is just a night market on the street sell fresh vege, fish, fruits, foods, groceries, CD, DVD, CD & some clothings as well...mainly mobile petty trader on the street...May be Farid can post some pictures..he..he..

eh...pasar malam punya pic???

do u need to register multiple forms if you have a few contractors (if working around the same time), wet works, electrical, carpentry, etc

1 form is enough if all of ur contractor is working at the same time..but let them know each other lor..easy for them..

Terima kasih Zahirnya. I assumed the left building is Havanna and right is Savanna :) Where were you stood when this pic was taken? I can only remember....entering the guard house, you normallly turn to left for the Lanai & Jelatek but if you turn right, it was 'deadend' and walk further that direction you can only see a path towards the underground carpark. When I said underground carpark - it is for Havanna owners and not the existing underground car park for Lanai & Jelatek owners. This was back in May 2005.

Any pictures on the 'walk way' or the 'garden' for walking? There is one ya?

Cheers

Hi there, juz to add to Zahir's input,

item 1. There's also a Great Eastern Mall at the Jln Ampang junction, it has "Cold Storage" supermarket that offers varieties in western food cooking ingredients...

item 2. Yeap, he's rite - mini market. If u stop at the SeriMaya show house, u can see one of their blueprint is to have 'commercial lot', next to the present entrance. we learned that they will have laundry, mini market, cafe, eat place...

item 3 & 4 - yeah, it's very much like a UN here in serimaya...

item 5 - yeap, eat-out place is just across the main street, next to the LRT station, u will find malay cuisine mainly. Satay - one of my favorite!

Hope it helps to make ur decisions!

really ah?? hmm..never heard of any condo in Malaysia with salt water pool...

i think the one i saw is the swimming pool of a resort, not condo

well..that is more acceptable...if it is a swimming pool of a resort

I'm counting down the days to the handover of Havanna, can't wait :p With regard to renovation, have any of you have any experience with Signature Kitchen? I'm thinking about using them cos I've heard of their reputation and good after sales service but first I'm going to take a look at what their quotation is like and maybe make a comparison. Think there's a Home Design Exhibition in KLCC Convention Centre next month, would be a good time to go looking around for renovators :p

hi escapekl,

signature kitchen did not impress me at all with their work. They are a lackadaisical bunch of people. sales talk was good but when they did my kitchen in the current place I'm staying, it was pathetic. Depends on how you look at it but to blow 50k on flimsy woodwork, is not my idea of money well spent. Even the bloody oven is giving us a hard time

By the way, SK did my bedroom as well. That's quite alright but not much innovative ideas than what you give them. They tend to stick to your original idea. I have no idea why but my guess is play it save. When you see the end product, it's like.... ugly..but then that's what you wanted. Go figure

Hi Kathy,
