Hehe maybe you've combined too many new developments :smile:

Anyway I didn't buy Sky 88, I just thought that it's a very good news for everyone who've invested in Iskandar as this showed that Johor's properties are really hot and they're in investors' radar now :smile:

Hi Buta san, any development can have their own folder but you have listed too many, 5 at one go plus etc so to avoid confusion i merged it in. These are all mainly condos so at some point, will split into their respective developments anyway. Others are at least just a couple of development so its still small enough to be discussed.

Take note this premium has to be in cash unless there is special arrangement. Too much hype can be good and bad. But if 88 does really well, many other projects launched recently will do equally well.

This is exactly what was posted in the SkyscraperCity forum:

"High floor B03 asking for 350K premium, low floor not sought after yet, wait a whiles"

There is big difference between 'asking' and 'transacted'.

One can ask for anything and fantasize. I have purchased properties in Malaysia as well and I understand that it is not easy to sell before completion. As far as Sky 88 is concerned they have not even done the S&P agreement. Completion is at least 3 years away.

In case the curent allottee is thinking of selling the paper at 350k (like selling an option), I wish them luck. I would seriously doubt if Setia would allow this to happen and let the allottee transfer the booking to any person.

Johor’s own Mid Valley City

KUALA LUMPUR: The proposed Mid Valley City-type mixed development in Johor Baru, via a joint venture between*IGB Corp Bhd*and*Selia Pantai Sdn Bhd, is expected to take four to five years, and has a tentative gross development value of RM6bil.“Tentatively, the project will have a gross development cost of RM2bil to RM3bil. It took us 15 years to get Mid Valley City to what it is today. Hopefully, it will take us only half that time with the Johor project,” said IGB Corp group*managing director Robert Tan.IGB Corp, the developer of Mid Valley City in Kuala Lumpur, has entered into a conditional memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Selia Pantai for the joint venture.Johor Menteri Besar*Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman, who witnessed the MoU signing, said the project would complement other developemnts in the Iskandar Malaysia economic growth corridor.From left: Tan, IGB Corp chairman Tan Sri Abu Talib Othman, Selia Pantai MD Datuk Mohamed Zaini Amran, Ghani and Kumpulan Prasarana Rakyat Johor Sdn Bhd chief Executive officer Johar Salim Yahaya looking at a model of the proposed Southkey Megamall in Johor Baru.A joint-venture company called*Southkey Megamall Sdn Bhd*will be set up to acquire three parcels of leasehold land measuring 36 acres for the project within the 300-acre Southkey development in Johor Baru.Selia Pantai is the Southkey developer and is a public-private partnership between the*Selia Group*and the Johor government viaKumpulan Prasarana Rakyat Johor Sdn Bhd (KPRJ).IGB Corp will have a 70% stake in Southkey Megamall, with the balance owned by Selia Pantai.Southkey is located within the Johor Baru city flagship zone A of Iskandar Malaysia and is accessible via five-minute drive from the Sultan Iskandar Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) complex as well as via Jalan Tebrau, Jalan Bakar Batu and the Eastern Dispersal Link.Tan said it was a great location for the proposed Southkey Megamall.“It is not easy to find a location like this. We are bullish on the Johor market. There are many things happening in Iskandar Malaysia,” he said.He said Selia Pantai had approached IGB Corp about six months ago with the proposal for the project, which is planned to have a retail mall as well as hotels, serviced apartments and offices.The proposed Southkey Megamall will have six million sq ft of space, and will include a net lettable area of 1.5 million sq ft, with about 7,000 carparks and can accomodate two major anchor tenants as well as 400 to 500 retail outlets.IGB Corp will fund its portion of the project via internal funds and bank borrowings.According to Tan, another six to nine months will be needed to do studies as well as resolve planning approvals and other issues pertaining to the project.“We hope to start construction in 2013. This is our first project in Johor. we are always on the lookout for opportunities. We want to look in the north also. Ideally, we want to have Mid Valley City-type developments in the south, central and north (Penang),” he said.
