SHAH ALAM (July 21): Phase 1 of Elmina Green Three in Sime Darby Property Bhd’s City of Elmina in Shah Alam have been fully taken up and 65 units in Phase 2 had been sold. It was first previewed in early June. There are 218 units in Phase 1 of Elmina Green Three and 109 units in Phase 2.  

According to a recent press release by the developer, these units have a total gross development value of RM250 million. Elmina Green Three is the latest phase of freehold two-storey link houses in the City of Elmina. With a land size of 20ft by 80ft and built-up areas from 2,262 to 2,983 sq ft, the units are priced from RM709,999.

The launch of Elmina Green Three kickstarted the return of Sime Darby Property’s Spotlight 8 campaign, which features new launches and super deals on properties in different townships every weekend for 11 weeks, until Sept 27.

Besides buyers from Malaysia, this year’s Spotlight 8 campaign has also attracted buyers from Hong Kong, Singapore, Brunei, and the United Kingdom. 

Sime Darby Property group managing director Datuk Azmir Merican noted that the reintroduction of the Spotlight 8 campaign allows the developer to continue its strong sales momentum from the previous successful online sales campaigns.

“The numbers show that there is a demand for the quality homes we provide, which are sold at attractive prices and located within strategic locations. Our Spotlight 8 campaign will enable us to drive sales forward, especially with the added boost from the government’s HOC [Home Ownership Campaign], which encourages homeownership,” he added.

The HOC 2020 offers various benefits, including a minimum of 10% discount and stamp duty exemption on the instruments of transfer and loan agreement for the purchase of residential units priced between RM300,000 and RM2.5 million, limited to the first RM1 million of the home purchase price.

The Spotlight 8 campaign was first introduced in July last year, and it saw total sales of 1,160 units in Bandar Bukit Raja, City of Elmina, KL East, Subang Jaya, Serenia City, Putra Heights, Kajang and Negeri Sembilan, valued at more than RM1.1 billion.

This weekend’s Spotlight 8 campaign will be Weekend Superdeals of freehold and landed homes in Bandar Bukit Raja, Klang. Going forward, the campaign will feature three other new launches of freehold and landed residential homes within the Greater Klang Valley.
