Car Park lot for rent

There're few car park lot up for rent. If anyone of you interested to rent car park, kindly email to me at changkatview.kl@gmail.com.

Location: At LG, level 2 and level 3.

Car Park Woes

How many of you have more than 1 car? Are you needing more than 1 car park lot for you and your family car! This is problem we commonly face when we stay in condo.

At the moment, management does not rent out any car park lot. And, we have not heard any plan from them to convert certain car park lot for rental usage.

As a result, you may choose to park your car outside near the main road. But look at the existing car along the road, you will noticed owners from next door are doing the same things.

When all the block of changkat view condo handed over, or at least wait untill end of this year, more car park space will be needed. For those who got the second car park, may not seemed to be worried on this. And at least, you can choose to rent out your lot to those needed. I'm foreseen, the rent for car park lot may increased in the future, as the demand for it is definitely more. Currently, the rent start at RM120 to RM150 per month.

Maybe you can consider to purchase extra car park. But this purchase does not come with cheap price. I forked out RM15K for 1 extra car park. There's a whole lot of money!

Which unit you are belong to?

Hi everybody,

Just created a poll to find out more on the visitor drop by to this blog. Kindly tick on the block you belong to at the bottom right column.

Feel free to drop me an email changkatview.kl@gmail.com regards to any matter. You may use the Shout box to communicate with anybody around here.
Thanks.

SMATV for Block B

The system was down for quite some time. Even my wife complaints that she missed so many her favaurite drama episode. But good also, we spend more time looking at each other instead of TV.

Just got the news, you all remember last week got technician came to service. Actually, they came to diagnose the problem and apparently the faulty part is still under warranty. Now they're waiting for the adjuster from the insurance company to identify the price for service.

So, in another words, we still have to wait. Once the adujuster done his part, it'll takes roughly 2 days to restore the system.

I'll announce to you all when they start to rectify the system.

Update

VP for Block C! Not yet. No official news yet.
But dear Block C owners, I'm sure this moment will not be long.

For the 24 hours hot line, guards said still in use. Let me check back with the management office. Will get back to you all.

In the mean time, I will continue to post up the updates especially the VP for Block C.
So, stay connected!

Another new ruling

Just saw this notice released by the management where it's stated that all the visitor's cars are only allow to enter our condo from 8am to 12am. And the car park is at the level 4.
I think this ruling is totally unacceptable. Where the visitor can park their car if they plan to stay overnight? Dont think they get the consent from the owners.

And about the SMATV, both Block A and B suffered the same fate. For those who didnt subscribe to Astro will end up just like me, no more TV. Sleep early!

Another great pictures!

Another Cvian (YL Chan) is kind enough to share his works on photography.
Quite impressive!

Anyway, I check with management office and confirmed that the SMATV system broke down again after lighting strikes yesterday. They're in the mid of repairing the system and hopefully everything back to normal by today.
