Arte Cheras: The most stylish and flamboyant condo in Cheras, typical Arte style. Type 3: 1,013qsft

[@alvinsoong123]

I feel that this suits more for short-term stay investments like Airbnb due to the heavy artistic designs. Just wondering how they are going to maintain this in the long-term, like 10 years. Anyway, appreciate for your great work!

[@JackChang27]

Yeap, you're right. There's an Arte project in Penang which I stayed at 2 years ago. Infested with AirBnB units. Nevertheless, Penang state govt has recently banned short term rental in residential developments, hence, the status for that project should have changed alot. I also reviewed Arte Mont Kiara a few months back. Maintenance of the overall project....hmphhh....doesn't look good.... 😅 Ultimately, will really depend on the management body and to some extent, a group of passionate owners to upkeep this development.

[@jingan97]

even Airbnb will also be short-term too due to bad management. After 10 years maybe itwill become Air.......... (no more bnb XD )

[@JackChang27]

Interested to get a unit here? Do reach out to Eugene, he's not just an agent that specialises in Arte Cheras, but more importantly, he's also an owner! He can be reached here: wa.link/arxhnm

As usual, over the top design is their signature. Really beautiful but maintenance is hell

[@JackChang27]

Yeap, maintenance gonna be hell. Artistic design + affordable monthly maintenance fees don't go hand in hand, unfortunately. Not impossible, but will need a strong and dedicated management body to upkeep this

[@WooLei]

interesting property, thank for video-ng

[@JackChang27]

Welcome, welcome. Yeah, nice and sexy, Arte properties are very unique and certainly stand out from the rest.

[@spdfazar]

how the decorations light situation at night, their effect to the affected units? is it beareble?

[@JackChang27]

Good question. Need to ask the owners/tenants of those affected units. But I know those units that are blocked, demand is lower and hence, asking price also lower.

[@keatlow]

woah, this unit is good for working studio, how much is the rental?

[@JackChang27]

Reach out to Eugene, he's the go to guy! He'll happily share more info.

[@heywatchme101]

nightmare to mantain who would want to rent out ? have to deal with many damages easily and how to clean?

[@JackChang27]

Based on historical trend (of other previous Arte projects, such as Arte Mont Kiara and Arte Ampang), maintenance is quite a challenge indeed. Hence, the strategy for such projects are for rental game, as opposed to own stay.

[@AjLuvU]

why nightmare to maintain?

[@zhoxien6969]

Hi, just a suggestion. Ensure your camera lens is clean before taking any video, it's blurry, likely covered by fingerprints, etc.

[@JackChang27]

Noted on the advice. Yes, certainly an area for me to work on. Will get a gimbal by year end so at least, will have more stable videos with that.

[@slteng88]

as usual arte project good at facilities area , fail at residential area ( floor lobby , dark walking pathway to the unit , inside unit ceiling height & layout is weird , windows height are damn low) so if visitor come , bring them hang out at facilities area will do , dont bring to the unit .

[@JackChang27]

It was better for their previous projects. If you check my video for Arte Mont Kiara (which was completed a few years back), although it was also a duplex unit, the ceiling wasn't that low. Walkway was also dark, but the window at the end had a fair bit of natural light coming in.

[@slteng88]

@@JackChang27 yes. The mk arte ceiling height still ok compared to this Still, layout is weird as usual , and the material use inside unit wasn't that good.

[@alvinsoong123]

I think that's the purpose of this project, and they are aware of it. Coz this is a very airbnb focused project, facilities are the most important aspect to "wow" the visitors, not the main units.

[@slteng88]

@@alvinsoong123 abnb oriented project... Prepare for lelongsss unitss

[@sc-sa-aq8292]

Don't see from outside but insight

[@JackChang27]

Inside very bad meh? Looks ok to me. Unless your inside refers to management body/developer response, then I won't know.

[@masa4680]

This is a good video to understand all the roads and buildings in KL; the artistic designs of Arte are too fancy , and not functional 🤣🤣

[@JackChang27]

Yeah, too much artistic design which isn't easy to maintain, that's my biggest concern. Based on other previous similar projects by the developer, more often than not, it's not properly maintained.

[@AjLuvU]

The only things I love about this arte is the blinking lights stuff. Things I dont like are: leasehold, overpriced, no balcony at all.

[@JackChang27]

Balcony and nice exterior facade doesn't go hand in hand, unfortunately. As a matter of fact, for this development, some units don't even have a decent view out of the windows, as majority of the window is blocked by the 'shapes' on the facade. Their previous development that I reviewed, Arte Mont Kiara, which has a facade of a shape of a thumbprint mark, also has no balcony.

[@AjLuvU]

@@JackChang27 I think this arte is more likely suitable for airbnb purposes. Yeah, talking about the windows beg blocked by the shape, I can tell 😅.

[@spdfazar]

ita just scream maintainance, maintainance, maintainance!!

[@JackChang27]

True. Need really solid maintenance otherwise, will look miserable after a certain time. Arte Mont Kiara starting to show the downside of such extravagant ID as the maintenance ain't tip top.

[@sc-sa-aq8292]

😂😂😂😂 soho???

[@JackChang27]

Hahaha. Yeah, SOHO, not condo. Need to change the title of the video already.

[@jylaw9495]

It looks very average. I don't like the tile/porcelain selection in most area. The unit ceiling in the bedroom and loft are low. Facility floor look very rojak design

[@JackChang27]

Either one likes it or hates it. Well, I don't like it... 🤣 I prefer smthg simple, clean and minimalist. This is way too loud for an old school guy like me. LOL
