Analysis

Mayland is the developer for most developments from residential to commercial centers in Sri Hartamas enclave. The company is originated from Hong Kong and have developed a handful of developments such as Hartamas Shopping Center, Hartamas Superlink, Dorchester, Mayfair, Windsor Tower, Waldorf Tower, Maytower, Parkview, and Prima Regency in Johor Bahru.Mayland is one of the infamous developers in the country. The company has delivered a number of bad workmanship and low quality developments, and also bad maintenance as well. One of the worst Mayland's developments is Sri Putramas I, which was delivered late to its owners with cracked on walls, loads of defects and cheap quality paint. Most of Mayland's properties are associated with depreciation in value, but Menara Hartamas is an exception together with Mayfair and Dorchester.There used to be security issues in Menara Hartamas, but none reported lately. In 2006, there were 4 burglary cases reported within 1 and a half month periods. Even after the incidents, the residents claimed that the management did not improve the security. Even with lacks of security measures and bad maintenance, residents are required to pay about RM0.25 psf per month for its maintenance fee which is quite high. The security issue has now been resolved, and remains a good place for investment with the coming of new development next door, the palace view and also the new high end condo Sunway Palazzio. In terms of capital appreciation, the price of Menara Hartamas has appreciated approximately 5.35% per annum since 2003 to 2008. Similar to its rental yield, it has appreciated approximately at 5.34% per annum within the same period. But the price staggered within the same price range around RM400 psf. Investment wise, there is still high possibility for capital appreciation due to high demands for residential in Sri Hartamas, as well as it will enjoy good view of the whole new Istana Negara, which is currently under development.
