THE market for residential properties has softened since the beginning of this year and is likely to continue into 2009, market experts say. The potentially negative influence on the sector is supply, said real estate valuer Regroup Associates Sdn Bhd executive chairman Christopher Boyd.

In a recent survey undertaken by Regroup, it showed that there is an existing supply of 19,183 condominium units in Kuala Lumpur, with 13,902 units more under construction.

Palazzio Sunway, Sri Hartamas Showroom Photos

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

About few weeks back, me and a few mates managed to sneak into the then-yet-to-be-opened showroom of Palazzio Sunway, one of the more iconic looking condo buildings sprouting up over at the Sri Hartamas/Mont Kiara enclove. We actually had a peek before it’s official launch in Malaysia which was this week…have intended to post the photos but time was just not on my side.

The photos (after the jump) I got are of Type A (3336 sf). The show unit actually appeared to be smaller than what I would imagine a 3000+ sf would feel. I attribute this to the rather large wet kitchen and laundry area, as well as the huge lift lobby which is rather unneccesary (not to mention you would be paying service charge for this area even though it may be the least used area!). Also the rather bulky interior renovation didn’t really help. However, the apliances provided are really top notch and the views are not too bad either. The wrapping balconies is really a nice touch. All units of Palazzio face the hilly sides with a playground in front. The orientation of the building is designed to maximise the green views. I know there are power cables running at the back but somehow that is rather irrelevant as all units will not be facing the power lines at all (save for a some bedrooms). So I didn’t find that a huge negative point.

More photos after the jump.
