Malaysia | Aspen Group Penang | First Affordable Housing Scheme In Penang Island

First affordable housing scheme on Penang Island is schedule to kick off on the fourth quarter of 2014. Aspen Group Penang with facility of RM95.5 mil Islamic loan from Malaysia Building Society Berhad (MBSB) set to launch RM400 mil Tri Pinnacle Penang project located on a 4 ha site at Jalan Persiaran Halia 3, Mount Erskine in Tanjong Tokong. It will be opened to first time housebuyers registered with Penang State Government. The approval process for genuine applicants is said to be done by the state government. The #MBSB loan facility will be used to finance the purchase cost of the freehold site for the Tri Pinnacle project, its founder and group CEO Datuk Manokharan Murly said.

Tri Pinnacle will housed 390 units of 650 sq ft low medium-cost (#LMC) apartments priced at RM72,500 and 859 units of 800 sq ft affordable condominiums priced at RM299,000 . It'll be equipped with high quality ambience, landscaping and standard condo facilities.

Refer to http://vulcaninternational.blogspot.com/2013/12/20142015-penang-property-my-musings-on.html for more details on LMC and affordable homes.

Why Aspen Group heading this LMC and affordable homes? Why not other established developers or 'A listed' developers?

The answer is Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Aspen Group Penang might be new kid on the block but their involvement in Batu Kawan where they going to build IKEA is a mega project. Back in January this year, Aspen Group has joint ventured (JV) with Ikano Pte Ltd, the franchisee for IKEA in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand to develop an integrated shopping mall in Batu Kawan, with IKEA as anchor tenant. The joint venture as Aspen-Ikano, brought up 245 acres of land from Penang Development Corporation (#PDC) for RM483.95 million (RM45.35 psf).

IKEA store and first phase of the shopping mall is said to take up 30 acres while another 45 acres is set for phase two of the shopping mall and remaining 170 acres for mixed development.

Malaysia | Top Developer In Penang | Titijaya | Land For Sale Transaction

With recently inception of the iconic Second Penang Bridge been official opened on 1-March-2014, the real estate properties especially on landbanks have been fast fetch-up by top developers on the southern region of Penang, Seberang Perai Selatan (#SPS). The acquisition is so glaring as in my previous report: http://vulcaninternational.blogspot.com/2014/05/property-hunter-batu-kawan-penang_17.html. 

Newly listed property developer Titijaya Land Bhd wholly-owned unit City Meridian Development Sdn Bhd is said to acquire 8.25 ha in SPS, Penang from Titijaya Group Sdn Bhd for total value of RM126 mil (RM142 psf). The figure of RM142 psf might be on high side as compared to current transactions.

Titijaya Land chief operating officer Mr Lim Poh Yit said the acquisition is the company's first venture outside Klang Valley. He mentioned that they're in the midst of planning and exploring the right mix of development products best fit market's demands and trends with respect to its landbank strategic location and development opportunities anticipated from surrounding catchment area.

He hinted that the mixed development with gross development value(GDV) of RM2 bil, will be launched at the end of next year on a location within walking distance of the second Penang Bridge, the Sultan Abdul Halim Mua'dzam Shah Bridge. In that sense, it'll also close by Penang's IKEA.

Titijaya Land Bhd(http://www.titijaya.com.my/), which listed last year recorded pre-tax profit of RM25.1 mil for its third quarter ended 31-March-2014 with revenue amounted to RM62.5 mil.
