PROPERTY REVIEW

In between significant addresses such as Mont Kiara, Desa Park City, and Dutamas, United Point seems to be one of the self sustaining building around that area where it's a mixed development.
There's a mall, retail, and residences where all of them compliment each other. The main highlight would definitely be the high density of 2500 units. On the good side, you'll enjoy lower maintenance fees and that numbers can attract better tenants to open their business. But on the bad side, the privacy and accessibility due to the high number will be a concern.
This is a project strategically leveraging on Duke highway and KL Metropolis. But the micro site condition is not as pleasant.

Nice review n 3 on 3 👍 Sean, thanks for the tour! Pretty good furnishing by makeover guys!

[@iherng]

Appreciate the kind words Ken:) Thanks for watching!!

[@vineshrajoo2805]

Thanks for another video.This project reminds me of a Megacity. A silo by itself, where one can work, relax, play and shop.

[@iherng]

Thanks for watching Vinesh!!

[@chiahoewe91]

This is a very good recommendation 👍 thanks for the great video!

You're most welcome!! Thanks for watching:)

Hi, first time watching your video. Very informative 👍👍👍

[@iherng]

Hi Michael, thx for watching yea!!

[@amirulaiman3197]

thanks for the amazing review to give an opinion for this property to me... and hopefully in the future, you can review property Emporis, Damansara...Much Love ❤️

[@iherng]

I will try to arrange yea. Thanks for watching!!

[@aaronkl]

Sean, pls do video on Goodwood Residences or give some advice/thoughts on it

[@DDTTDDTT]

I always accidentally dashed into DUKE from here. The entry from Jln Segambut in United Pointed is u turn and dashing left turn within 300m. It takes skills. PE ratio is quite high over 3 blocks , would be better if under 2000 units. The Maxim Majestic Cheras would be a strong competitor to it as that project has no pylon n within walking distance to MRT without outsiders to malls but just residents.

[@WestCoastAce27]

Good video as always. Bedrooms are small! The 1 would be an office at best. I wonder if more people would prefer 2 larger bedrooms instead. But good job by the developer to bring affordable units to KL.

[@iherng]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Mark!! I really appreciate it.

[@ikramz]

Great review, made me check out the building for my next rent. But from visiting the place and speaking to the agents, i believe the rent is much much lower than the figure (range) that you mentioned in the video. Now you can get as low as 1.3k, without furnishing of course. Even fully furnished also can get 1.7k - 1.8k.

[@iherng]

Thanks for sharing Ikram. Is it designer furnished? Because the data was provided by my consultants.

[@andrewchin9163]

I pass by United Point so often going out to KL from Kepong! Glad you finally reviewed this huge landmark project haha. Never knew the mall looked that good, hope the condition can be kept well. Agree on the density & the accessibility. The road under DUKE is known for very heavy traffic as people are reluctant to go to KL with DUKE directly due to toll :( That facility deck is also quite sad, feels a lot like afterthought realising they had so much space to work with. Definitely going to be a challenge to rent out with East Parq as another alternative which is nearer to shoplots & the competing Legend Heights next to it. Thanks for the great work, Sean :)

[@iherng]

You nailed it Andrew. Thanks for sharing your take:) I really appreciate it!!

[@michleong26]

Thanks for the review Sean! I've seen this property when they were still. And I agree with your view that the downside is 2500 units, too many imh. Also, the turn off for me was because of the toll haha. But its good to see that their retail shops are doing great.

[@iherng]

You're most welcome Michelle. Yea, the retail mix really came out fast, especially for a residential development:)

[@amirbagus5547]

Nice video bos 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[@iherng]

Terima kasih Amir:)

[@durainaidu3843]

Hey Sean, I have been watching your videos for quite some time now. I have learn a lot of things about properties. Just a suggestion, you should checkout Midori at Kajang 2 by MKH. Interesting concept and unique layout. Might be a good content for your next property review.

[@iherng]

Let me go check that out Durai. Thanks for sharing!!

[@scottng8171]

Wonder how u think about Savvy Riana Dutamas that was also just nearby this United Point?

[@BOSCOHKMY]

Nice tour 👍🏻😃

[@iherng]

Glad you enjoyed it Bosco!! Thanks for watching!!

[@Onion_Knights]

Very nice, the view the layout. Just that the windows in bedroom 2 and 3 could be better, its too high and small. And yes, rent out will be difficult.. unless cheaper than other. Kudos, good review

[@JustinHor]

Actually you should keep an eye on the project which is completing soon opposite UP. Its former name was Mulberry, not sure what is the new name. This project has been abandoned and revived couple of times since its commencement in late 90s. Why I think you should take note of this project: - density from the 90s, definitely not 2500units. - units could be much larger against today’s products - clay brick as masonry, not many modern construction use this material.

[@iherng]

Appreciate the heads up Justin!!

[@silverblueslw]

I went there yesterday at night. Occupancy is still low based on the lights I saw from the place. But I like the environment downstairs, it is like a kids wonderland. Spoke to the Aeon staff downstairs. Apparently, it has been opened since Mar2020. Guess the COVID situation is not helping with filling up the occupancy.

[@iherng]

Yupe. It's rare to have a brand such as Aeon to come in at such an early stage. Well, most of the units are still under renovation. But thanks for sharing Wei Chng!

[@secretrunway]

Hi Sean can help give your 3on3 take on nearby project Savvy Dutamas? Just booked a unit wondering what’s your advice

[@ij97]

Thanks for the tourrr☺️☺️☺️

[@iherng]

Thank you so much for watching!!

[@6wwwfabloo6]

Thanks for sharing, this video was very helpful. Would you know an agent who is specialist for this property? Looking to rent.

[@JustinHor]

Many years ago, before UP was completed, my parents place can still get KLCC view. Now big wall blocking the view 🤣 But props to UOA, as always, delivering highly efficient, standardized and well executed products.

[@iherng]

Alamak... That's too bad. Yea, the product is just efficient! Thanks for watching Justin:)

[@hanfungc9337]

The layout is exactly the same as Green Residence in Taman Desa. UOA seems to have a knack to acquire “no man’s land” parcels and develop high density projects. One observation though is that the location of these developments are extremely strategic

[@iherng]

Great findings Han Fung. I've learnt something today=) I really appreciate the sharing!!

Wow really? Let me go check it out:) Thanks for watching!!

[@Lammy69]

iherng , yeap ! I got a really good offer during MCO. It’s an old development , used as hotel/service condo . Far East Hospitality bought over in Jan 2020 and leasing the unit. You should drop by !

[@muhammadaminuddinbinmdaziz184]

Hi Sean, what do you think about Perla Ara Sentral in Ara Damansara? the building will be connected to the LRT. any thought on that? need some feedbacks :(

[@muhammadaminuddinbinmdaziz184]

anyone can also give your opinion as i badly need it

[@iherng]

Have you gone through the 4 basics yet? Get your intention and loan eligibility sorted out first, then check 20 different projects around to determine whether this Perla is cheap or expensive.

[@johnpauljohn6129]

Hi sean, thanks for reviewing this property. Yeah, I second your opinion regarding the road access. Let say 1% of residents driving in and out the property during peak hour 😶.

[@iherng]

Yea. Well, that depends on full 100% occupancy hahaha. Anyway, thanks for watching:)

[@thevincentlim]

Love the 9:33 Thor camera effect😂

[@iherng]

Appreciate it man haha!!

[@MadeKustom]

24 units per floor? The sampah space so small... can pengsan

[@weldon29]

the empty space reminds me of void deck in sg HDBs

[@iherng]

Yea... Totally right?! Hahaha. Thanks for sharing:)

[@maxleong3037]

But the HDB will have like bench and round table lah. I think this is really quite empty. It can be the venue for AGM and stuff lah, if the resident council plan it well.

[@JustinHor]

the facility is kept to a minimum to reduce service charge to apartment component. Playground at retail area to pull family with kids to the area, thus generating the much needed critical mass for retail.

[@vtecgirl5442]

Can you do a review on Ten Kinrara? Thanks.

[@ddzzz9031]

Wa first time heard so much of negative comment at initial part from all your review Btw just want to add on I like how uoa put effort to make the mall more vibrant such as bringing 'pasar malam' aka food stall to the mall Definitely attract more people to that area Some of my friend bought here also because they claim this mall will be the only mall with cinema within segambut / Mont Kiara area But then uem also expanding their publika area with new launches such as solaris parq which they plan to build another mall itself Nevertheless this mall at United point may do ok since it's such an ultra high dense condo

[@iherng]

Haha. Because the weak point was the micro location elements. And just nice I always start with the site 😃 Thanks for sharing yea! I really appreciate it:)

[@agreatlife3774]

@@iherng what a joke. goodluck in getting tenants with this price. Top up a bit and you get a condo of similar size in ParkCity, with only 300+units in the whole block, much more livable. with this type of furnishing in UP, max I will pay is RM1600.
