Residensi Brickfields @ KL: Awesome PR1MA project, KL Sentral and Bangsar LRT is a stone throw away.

[@sazmanmusic]

The addition of upper and below panels for all windows opens up the room even more. Kitchen is a good size, nice canvas to build your dream kitchen.

[@JackChang27]

Always a good thing to have more natural lighting into a room. Yes, very healthy size for the kitchen.

[@sazmanmusic]

@JackChang27 if only the windows is of high quality. But with that price, it is understandable.

[@zainulrashid8620]

THIS LOCATION, THIS SIZE, AND THIS PRICE. Literally sitting on gold mine, there's nothing can go wrong!

[@JackChang27]

Yes, precisely! Location, price (per square feet) and layout (bright, airy...etc). Others are a bonus.

[@nexustech1071]

Good value for money project

[@JackChang27]

Totally agreed. There are much more older projects, apartments/flat basically, which have no facilities at all, more than 20 years old and are about 15% cheaper.

[@neshdgr8]

Impressive video and thoroughly detailed briefing. We eagerly anticipate more videos like this from you. It clearly reflects the effort and preparation you’ve put in before visiting any residential property. Hopefully, in the future, you could visit units in Block B and C and review any of the Type A, B, or C units. Keep up the excellent work! 😄😄😄

[@JackChang27]

Thanks for compliments. Glad that you liked it. I always enjoy visiting new properties and sharing my knowledge with my viewers. Likely won't be visiting Residensi Brickfields again, there's just too many new and good properties out there to be reviewed! I actually have a really long demand list, from viewers and agents. Hence, not even all request (to review a certain property) can be fulfilled. >

[@sazmanmusic]

The amount of defects (as observed by number of stickers) seems scary, but this is is quite normal for any units. As long the developer fixes the issue in the required time, then thats fine

[@JackChang27]

Yeap, agreed. As long as not major (which mostly are just minor and aesthetics) and if fixed within the time frame, perfectly acceptable indeed. However, not many people understand this, unfortunately. Got defects, straight away make noise. 🫠

[@RazerForLife216]

This or the best RumaWIP that you've seen so far (either SkyAwani 4 or Laman Sari)?

[@JackChang27]

Really depends on individual. For me, I'm familiar with the KL Sentral area and also Brickfields as I used to visit my client in this area many years back. I also stayed in PJ during my uni (UM) days and thereafter, in Old Klang Road area. Hence, would definitely go for Residensi Brickfields. The walking distance to the LRT Bangsar station is a huge plus point.

rls👍

[@7691455]

Thanks for review! Have a different opinion regarding such large air well layout for a high rise property - personally I would prefer to avoid such layout as it somehow easier to attract ppl to jump down from the high floor instead

[@JackChang27]

Oh, that's an interesting view. I've heard of such cases but haven't read about any detailed statistics linking suicide in high rise to either the building type, height, social economic factor (of the area or tenants), air well...etc Nevertheless, interesting take. There's a flat in my hometown, Malacca that is well known for suicide cases. Throw that commit suicide aren't even staying there but go there to commit suicide simply because it's the highest public high rise building which has no 'security access controls' to the building. It is known as "9-storey at Jalan Bendahara" 😞

[@melzisme]

​@@JackChang27seems that the 9 storey building is is quite well known for that reason😅. My hometown in Seremban has "14 floor". The town folks will know where that is..

[@JackChang27]

I'm not surprised that each state has their own "well-known" building... 😅

[@iansfault]

Do they have a balcony?

[@JackChang27]

No balcony. Instead, they have big windows, as per my review.

[@sukishmsl]

sinkhole happened at masjid india recently and it risen up concern about kl geological issue. can this effect on property market around kl, especially highrises?

[@JackChang27]

Good question. Not at all, won't be impacted. This is because for high rise, there is deep pilling that is done that goes deep into the soil. Thereafter, you have layers of concrete that is poured in by layers to connect the pilling, so that the any force on top can be equally distributed. These deep pilling will make it close to impossible for the movement of soil beneath the ground, including those streams. Hence, sinkholes really posed zero risk to high rise buildings. Biggest risk to high rise buildings will still be landslides, and earthquake.

[@maniee8995]

i like the openness of it, but abit concerned that the air-well isnt covered with transparent material. overall very good quality project. on par with the project in alam damai.

[@JackChang27]

Pros and cons, but in my opinion, the pros outweighs the cons. Much better heat exchange for sure. Hot air can easily go up when it's scorching hot and cold air can easily goes down when it rains. On that same note, better air ventilation so that it isn't stale the air. The cons will be, if it rains, walkway may get wet. So, open certainly better than closed.

[@tuanlam1314]

wah the facilities floor so big

[@JackChang27]

Yeah, crazily big. There is really so much space. My advice is for the homeowners to carry out their duties, pay the maintenance fee as mandated, and over time, when there is sufficient funds, they can further enhance these spaces, either by doing landscaping or doing simple facilities (outdoor exercise equipment, reflexology path).

[@krunalshah3723]

Can non malay hire house on rent at Residenci, Brickfields?

[@JackChang27]

If follow the law, all PR1MA homes can't be rented out. It must be owner occupied. Hence, regardless of race, Malay, Chinese, Indian or any other races, are NOT ALLOWED TO RENT. Only Residensi Wilayah project (previously known as RumaWIP) can be rented out.

[@Hong-e4j]

🏅

[@JackChang27]

🥇& 💐

[@kavidroid]

checks almost all the box.....the kids playground could be bigger tho

[@JackChang27]

Ample space...see if possible to pressure and tekan the government (developer) to add on or not. LOL If can't (which is likely the result), then just need to rally all the owners to carry out their duties (pay maintenance fees) and along time, beautify the place and add on facilities. After all, space is there.

[@starz2020]

How much the rental for type A, B , C and D

[@JackChang27]

Tough question as it varies, as with most properties. You'll probably be able to get a rough idea by searching online (for Residensi Brickfields). What I can share is that if you're an owner and you want a higher rate, you'll just need to make your unit unique. All my properties are rented out above market rate, it really isn't too hard.

[@starz2020]

unique means equipping the units with furniture right

[@JackChang27]

Furnishing is one of it, but that being said, it means the furnishing itself is unique (rare). Example, Smart TV with Netflix subscription ready or Fibre Internet with mesh for whole home WiFi coverage? Many other things that can also be unique.

[@victorgs558]

Sold for how much tht time

[@JackChang27]

Type A - RM243K Type B - RM269.1K Type C - 380K/370K Type D - 412K All the original prices are 10% higher before HOC (Home Ownership Campaign) The HOC began on January 1, 2019, and was extended several times before concluding on December 31, 2021.

[@starz2020]

amazing prima brickfields

[@JackChang27]

Yes, PR1MA Brickfields. Hard to get such a good location, even for private condos.

[@melzisme]

Block A is the only block possibily deserve the qlassic score of 82. Block B and C doesn't . Bad workmanship, subpar fittings and lots of hazard points. 😑

[@JackChang27]

Ouch, sad to hear that. Hope the developer can rectify the defects. There are always proper avenues to address this and if all else fails, there is always the Tribunal and worse case, ownself to fix followed by claim back from the retention sum.

[@Hong-e4j]

Pertamax

[@JackChang27]

This is now Sukma games champion, since Olympics over already... 🤣

[@maarofrazif2287]

Cheap window panel..

[@jylaw9495]

poor soundproofing. But maybe compatible with the price

[@JackChang27]

Given the price and project type (PR1MA, RumaWIP...etc), this is the norm. A lot other projects in this price range would give similar window panels also.

[@melzisme]

​@@JackChang27in the early days PR1MA was good and rumawip was the opposite. However as time goes by, i find that the situation turned around. I visited a lot of rumawip project units, i'd say its much better quality than the pr1ma ones nowadays.

[@JackChang27]

RumaWIP are all different private developers but with government incentive. Hence, the outcome varies quite significantly. From my observation, SkyAwani seems to be solid, and that's because the developer, SkyWorld themselves are a pretty good developer. Even for the private, free range condo, it's good stuff. That's what I observed la.
