  • 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.
Work out stamp duty and legal fees

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. Phoeniz Suites @ KL City Centre is still under construction, completing 60 months after APDL (~2031), which only suits you if the wait is not a problem. On holding cost, Core Residence @ TRX is the lighter one at RM0.85 psf (inclusive of sinking fund) against RM 1.21 psf including sinking fund. EXSIM will subsidize maintenance fees up to max RM0.33psf for 2 years.; on a 1,000 sq ft unit that difference runs to a few hundred ringgit a month, every month. Phoeniz Suites @ KL City Centre is the quieter building at 394 units against 580, which shows up in lift waits and how busy the facilities feel. Either way, ask for the current price list and walk both before you decide — I can arrange that.
