What to check before choosing
- Ask how far construction has gone at Daya Residence and Forest Hill, and how that compares with the expected completion.
- Lease term: Forest Hill is leasehold, so confirm how many years remain on the title.
- Car parks: confirm the number and location of bays for the exact unit, in writing.
- Work out the monthly maintenance for your actual unit size; a small gap per sq ft adds up on a larger layout.
- Price list: list prices change with each release, so ask for the current list and the price of the specific unit.
- Foreign buyers: a purchase in KL needs consent from the land authority, so allow time for it in your plan.
Which one I would point you to.
On holding cost, Daya Residence is the lighter one at RM0.28 psf (inclusive Sinking Fund) against RM0.35psf (including sinking fund, estimated); on a 1,000 sq ft unit that difference runs to a few hundred ringgit a month, every month. Daya Residence is the quieter building at 225 units against 618, which shows up in lift waits and how busy the facilities feel. Daya Residence has the lower entry price at RM 631,800, though the layout you end up choosing matters more than the headline figure. Daya Residence is freehold, so there is no lease to renew. Either way, ask for the current price list and walk both before you decide — I can arrange that.
