The good news of this project is that IJM Construction did a good job by finishing this abandoned project. IJM should also be commended for the fairly good interior finishing, as compared with apartment projects built by other contractors. Of course, there are still defects. But these defects are minor and easily rectifiable. See some of the pictures on the defects.
Three weeks has lapsed since the letter of hand over was issued by the vendor. About 50% of the purchasers have taken possession of their units. But can they move in?
Lifts are not fully functioning, swimming pool full of algae not usable, apartment car park access control system not in place. Perimeter chain link fencing still locked, restricting purchasers' access to the premises. Only two guards on duty and no access permitted at the time of visit.
Is this called final completion and ready for handover? The Architect of this project should be taken to task and reported to PAM (Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia).
On top of this, the Management company appointed by the vendor started to collect maintenance fees for the month of October 2010. Is this legitimate and fair to the purchasers? What services are they providing?
All purchaser should demand that no maintenance fees is payable until full services are in place. Purchasers should also demand that the vendor ensure that the premises is habitable before hand over.
