The Address Location

Tucked in the heart of Taman Desa, Seputeh, The Address is a gem within the enclaves of the area.

As for foodies, there’s an abundance of local and non-local eateries in Taman Desa that would surely satisfy your tastebuds such as Seoul Korea, Shinmapo Korean BBQ, Restoran Sepeteng, Old Tricycle, and Eatomo Food Co. However, being densely populated also comes with its own setbacks. This primarily includes traffic jams and obstructed views of the scenery with skyscrapers and properties of the sort. Despite all this, it’s completely fair to say that a vast majority of properties in the area of Kuala Lumpur would have this issue. Furthermore, Taman Desa is a luxurious location with a high-end security system throughout the entire property.

Connectivity

Akin to the nearby metropolitan cities in Kuala Lumpur, Taman Desa has its fair share of connectivity benefits too. They range from public transportation and even to well-connected roads that lead to popular tourist attractions. These connectivity benefits make investing in The Address really worthwhile. This property is connected to roads such as Jalan Desa Bakti, Jalan Desa Utama, and Jalan Desa Mesra, the Salak Highway, and the East-West Link Expressway. Addressing the issue of traffic jams, residents can opt for public transportation services as the closest metro stations are KD02 Pantai Dalam and KB02 Seputeh stations on the Port Klang and Seremban Lines respectively on the KTM Komuter network. Furthermore, the RapidKL bus route 650 regularly serves Taman Desa. Therefore, this saves a lot of time, money, and energy for prospective residents to commute in and out of Taman Desa. Besides that, there’s also e- hailing services such as Grab and MyCar which are increasingly growing in popularity.

All of these are within a 3 km to 8.8 km radius, so this would definitely fulfil any resident’s shopping desire within a few minutes. The travelling time would be further reduced with the use of public transportation.

This is considerably cheaper in comparison with the other projects in the vicinity. Given the location, the high access to external facilities and as well as the extensive security system in Taman Desa, The Address would be of great appeal to various groups including those from lower and average economic groups.

The main underlying issue within the area of Taman Desa would be the congested area due to the existence of other residential apartments in the vicinity. However, this would be a common sight in almost all properties in the Klang Valley. Also, another significant issue would be the traffic jams during peak hours but this problem could be solved easily by the usage of public transportation and e-hailing services to travel to and fro from work. Initially, this project has faced much controversy due to the fact that it has been built on a narrow 132 feet tract of TNB reserved land. However, with the addition of this high rise building in Taman Desa, it has now been accepted due to its affordable pricing which seems appealing to many prospective buyers. With the project set to be completed in the year 2022, it really looks like this project is going to have major success despite its initial controversy.

Target Market

Since the key takeaways in The Address would be its affordable pricing and high accessibility to major entertainment outlets, this property would mainly attract 2 groups of people. One of the groups would be people from the lower and average economic spectrum. This is mainly due to the fact that the starting price of The Address is RM 650,000 and a price as such in a luxurious township such as in Taman Desa would be an absolute rarity. Another target group would most definitely be people who love an exciting nightlife. This group would mostly consist of millennials due to the fact that they love hanging out with their family and friends in the various entertainment outlets near the residence.

Competitor Analysis

The main property developers in the area of Seputeh are Meridian Maxim Sdn. Bhd., Malaysian Resources Corporation Sdn. Bhd. and Suntrack Development Sdn. Bhd. Among these 3 developmental companies, it’s crystal clear that Meridian Maxim Sdn. Bhd. still tops the spot in terms of its affordability rate which is considerably cheap, taking into account the location of its property. This company definitely knows how to integrate various components into a small space to create a homely space within the metropolitan area of Seputeh.
Delving deeper into the specifics of each housing project, namely The Address by Meridian Maxim Sdn. Bhd, Tria, Seputeh by Malaysian Corporation Resources Sdn.Bhd. and The Riyang, Kuchai Lama by Suntrack Development Sdn. Bhd., here are the comparisons between all the 3 projects.

In comparison to Tria, Seputeh by Malaysian Corporation Resources Sdn.Bhd., The Address is priced at a lower rate. This could be seen from the price per square feet of Tria, Seputeh which is priced at RM 840 per square feet. Meanwhile, The Address is priced at RM 581 per square feet. Besides that, the maintenance fee of The Address is lower than that of Tria, Seputeh. There is a notable difference between the maintenance fee of The Address and Tria, Seputeh due to the fact that The Address is priced at RM 0.26 per square feet and Tria, Seputeh is priced at RM 0.40 per square feet. However, Tria, Seputeh has more facilities than The Address and it also has a more diverse choice of unit types in comparison to The Address.

Apart from that, in comparison to The Riyang, Kuchai Lama by Suntrack Development Sdn.Bhd., The Address is a tad bit expensive because it’s priced at RM 581 per square feet and The Riyang is priced at RM 550 per square feet. The facilities in both these properties are just about the same but The Riyang puts an emphasis on green features like rainwater harvesting system, laminated windows to keep out the heat, multi split air-conditioning, and architectural structures. This differs in comparison to The Address which has a huge emphasis on the affordability rate of the units and as well as the high access to external facilities such as major entertainment outlets. However, the difference is completely understandable as both The Riyang and The Address have different target markets. The Riyang mostly puts people from the upper economic spectrum as its target market. The features provided in each of these properties are just to fulfil the needs of their respective target markets.

Below is a table to further enforce the notion that The Address still tops the spot in an area as competitive as Seputeh as a whole:

The Address’ Developer: Meridian Maxim Sdn.Bhd.
