What to check before choosing
- Construction progress: Golden Crown is not yet completed, so check the latest stage of work against the expected date.
- Lease term: Golden Crown is leasehold, so confirm how many years remain on the title.
- Parking allocation can differ by unit type, so get the answer for your unit in writing rather than for the project as a whole.
- Maintenance: multiply each rate by the size of the unit you are looking at, so you compare real monthly bills rather than rates.
- The prices here are developer list prices; get the latest price list before you commit to a 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.
If you want to move in now, Core Residence @ TRX is the one to see: it is finished, so you can walk the actual unit rather than judge it from a plan. Golden Crown is still under construction, completing Q4 2026, which only suits you if the wait is not a problem. On holding cost, Golden Crown is the lighter one at Approx. RM0.80psf against RM0.85 psf (inclusive of sinking fund); on a 1,000 sq ft unit that difference runs to a few hundred ringgit a month, every month. Golden Crown has the lower entry price at RM 1,280,000, though the layout you end up choosing matters more than the headline figure. Either way, ask for the current price list and walk both before you decide — I can arrange that.
