Platinum Lake Condo - PV12

I accompanied my younger brother yesterday to collect house keys for his newly completed condominum at Platinum Lake Condo PV12, which is located at Danau Kota, Setapak. Setapak used to be familiar for me during my Stapak high schooll days decades ago. I have not been here for more than 10 years and all I could only recall is the old toll established near the Pahang roundabout which is of course long gone by now.

The condo is ready now with Certificate of Fitness (CF) and as expected the management office was filled with house owners eargerly awating for their keys. This is of course a wonderful moment for many house buyers after placing their orders 3 years ago. The condo is designed with covered parking in the first fourth floor of the building. An big open area dedicated to the swimming, wadding pools and playground is located at the fifth floor. Thumbs up for the modern concept, similar to the setup of many commercial hotels.

The condo tower is 26th floor high. My brother's unit is on the 23rd floor with the Genting view. Although the units with KLCC view are more sought after according to the real-estate agent met, I would personally prefer the Genting mountain view as it is more scenic and less commercial

The real estate agent informed me that the condo unit with the size of 1207 sq can fetch the selling price as high as RM280K or the monthly rental of RM1300 due to the popular demand from the TAR college students. A handsome capital gain of more than 45% for investors. Another good selling point is the Platinum Walk, a street mall with the shaded boulevard ambience and now a rapidly growing happening site, is located just right beside, within the walking distance of the condo.

  1. My real estate agent informed that that many PV12 units are taken up quickly when put up to sales recently. The units with KLCC/Lake View can fetch the price of addtional 10-15% from those units facing the mountain. Our unit with 1207 sq feet was told in less than one week by the agent. There are also ready tenants such as Cosmopoint college in the nearby who rent in bulk for the duration of 2 years for their students.

  4. Poor management, they just looking for the NEW way to earn more money charge this and that.
    Lift, always put a signboard there 'under maintenance' all together 4 lifts, but at the end left 2 lifts or 1 lift is working.
    Criminal case, their security guards are useless, you can just ask anyone staying there. They will tell you how frequently the burglary cases here. Don't worry, there is not only burglary case here, you can try to park your motorbike in front of the building for two/three days and lock it. I guarantee you can't even see your motorbike's wheel after 2 days.
    Security guard, bad attitude and rude.
    Parking, resident parking is at 2nd, 3rd and 4th floor. 1st floor parking is reserved for workers and actually that floor is quite empty (just few cars) .We pay for parking lot, but we have to turn, turn and turn our car go to 2nd, 3rd and 4th floor isn't it troublesome ? And yet we still need to pay for it. (RM100 per month~not cheap), some even buy the parking lot (few thousands).
    Facilities, sorry i think they give public some wrong information. There is not JACUZZI ,BBQ and SAUNA here.(refers to official website)
    If you don't mind what i mentioned above, you are welcome to join our "Big" family.
