Area reviews are awesome! Wish to see more of those especially in new townships like elmina, gamuda gardens or cove! My honest thoughts of this township is that the design architecture is very niche but seeing it getting sold like hotcakes is very shocking to me haha
Yes, love the environment over here, i have been here since they're not that much developed around 4-5 years ago, till now it become a busy, matured & international township
Eco Botanic such a great places to stayed. We bought here and really enjoyed. The most satisfying part is security and environment around they take care very good. No complain at all 😉
Aiyo, the white Eco Boulevard is built to housed many eatery shops with " limited and Lousy toilets "facilities, its a waste of not filming it up .Developer is more concern of the the outlook of the building rather than its basic amenities such as toilets and Car Parks
I stayed in eco nest for the last two years but unfortunately, i had to move out because the traffic has gotten absolutely horrendous. The problem with eco botanic at the moment is, it's a huge cul de sac (dead end). All cars have to go in/out through two entry points only and that causes traffic backups like crazy. JB desperately needs public transport and better road design.
@@SeanTanChiWee yea i dont understand why developer want to skimp on the front gate for a landed property, i get they are trying the open concept, but without a gate it just feel incomplete
@@Kratos863follow western countries no gate for landed houses. Actually no gate can park more cars in front and no need maintenance for the gate and motor. Eco Majestic at Semenyih has more designs without gate 😊
If one is to buy a new semi-D for home stay in a strata/gated environment in JB, which area is the best to consider between Sunway, Eco-Botanic and Austin developments?
@@KG-rd5rh My pick , Horizon Hills (individual,but I like The Cove Semi D), Sunway (mostly terrace, Emerald still have a bit semi d), Senibong Cove Area, Leisure Farm, East Ledang, Kews by Senibong( new launch).
@@KG-rd5rhvery personal opinion m, I like the the township of Eco Botanic, but don’t like the workmanship of eco world houses in Johor. Also, the density of houses, the road outside unit is narrow, and I like quite neighbors hood like horizon hill. But first phase is better than second phase. But I will stay nearby Eco botanic. I bought subsale East Ledang semi d during covid, rental return is very good.
Why do you need SG? Did SG need malay or did they dig where they were standing and pulled themselves up? Snap out of little brother mentality and go bold.
Haha I think the local authorities watched your video! Immediately after you posted this up they removed the barriers and now the road from Eco Botanic Phase 2 to Legoland has opened 😂
Houses look very nice and secure. But food prices around there are now very similar to Singapore price. And seems a lot of owners trying to re-sell or rent out their houses there. I dun mind renting for a month though at the current rent of 3-4k RM.
I've been looking around to buy a house in JB Iskandar area. The earlier phases of Eko Botanic was great, with impressive landscaping, extravagance entrance and immaculate garden. However after comparing with equivalent projects nearby, I found that Eko Botanic 2 is priced higher but with inferior bulit quality. The windows are smaller and of mediocre quality, all doors are standard height(not as grand as the 2.4m once), cheap tiles in the wet area with cheap laminated flooring on the upper floor. Other than good cross ventilation design layout, there's nothing to shout about. No doubt the F&B vibes nearby is nice with a vibrant commercial area, I don't like to purchase from a developer that lower their built quality after having a relatively good success on their previous launches. I actually made up my mind to buy a unit in Eko Botanic 2 because I was very impress with their earlier launches but I was really disappointed with the underwhelming built quality with higher price.🙁
Thanks for sharing. Well the phase 2 were launch during lockdown, and construction cost increased 38% y-o-y but the market was not buying anything. But great observations, then maybe you should get their earlier phase products then haha. I would prefer doing that actually:)
Exactly. Their projects are all urban sprawls. As for Johor in general, it is difficult to build transit-oriented developments. The only real form of public transit is buses. It is sad to see that this is the direction that development is heading towards. The one potential pro for developing cities as compared to 'first-world' cities is the opportunity to leapfrog in terms of technology, and many cities in this country are not taking advantage of that.
@@ronnardkoay570 you cant compare with current DPC. At 20 years back, people cant afford a home in PJ / Bangsar, that's why they bought a home in DPC so called "Ulu" and deserted place at that time. Everything takes time, let's see what EW can develop in next 10 years.
Well this is an area review, so it wouldn’t make sense to have negative remarks on an address or township at this scale. We couldn’t venture too deep into the units too. May I suggest to check other area reviews too before jumping into conclusions:)
Unless you are a non local retiree or a foreigner then this isn’t a good place to buy. As a local, anything that is 10-15KM away from the city centre is a no go. If you wish to invest then think like a local, cause most of the time when you wanna exit/sell your property , the easiest people to sell to is the locals. JB have not reach the KV level yet, so I don’t think it’s worth it to live so far. there are similar priced property nearer to the city centre.
This place already can sustain on its own. They have jaya grocer, clinics, childcare, university and many more, its a township development. I don't see there's a need for the buyer often travel to city centre larh.
I’m Malaysian and I’m a resident in Eco Botanic and i can tell you: I only drive to City Centre if I have to pickup my friends at the customs. The traffic jam is just crazy.
@@yrh0413 when I say local, it’s JB local. Not from other state or district. That why I wrote this project is for non local retiree and foreigner. Let me put it in a simple way, when you born and raise in PJ you will always want to stay in PJ. When you born in JB you will want to stay in old JB area that is familiar to us. For a local it’s not worth the money but for non Local or foreigner it’s good. For investment wise then its better to find somewhere the local will buy.
I dont think so, because the clubhouse is separated out and residence need to subscribe. The expensive part i guess is to maintain the swimming pool only. FYI, gated & guarded in Eco Sanctuary with its own clubhouse can cost up to 1K/month, but in Eco Botanic, perhaps 200-300/month?
Safest neighborhood is the one big reason why I will remain here ❤❤❤❤
Great choice!! They’re doing a great job!!

Thanks for sharing your insight. Many people wouldn’t believe this location was once a very quiet and secluded area. The transformation is amazing!!
Eco Botanic such a great places to stayed. We bought here and really enjoyed. The most satisfying part is security and environment around they take care very good. No complain at all 😉
I'm just so envious hahahaha!! Thanks for sharing:)
Tot got kidnapping recently
It will be great if you able to review Horizon Hills next time...That is the township under Gamuda also.
It would be way cooler if the houses were painted in different colors. It's kinda trippy with all that white and green.
@@deegster7064 Well that’s personal preference hehe. Personally I prefer the uniform format of such so they withstand time better.
Thanks Sean Tan from Sean Tan
😂
Hahahahaha!!
a great development
What a coincidence! Sat, Jul 20, 8.30pm, the 6-year old Albertine Leo was kidnapped at Eco Galleria during Bon Odori festival.
I was reminded by this video too
The kidnappers are not jb locals, but people from other state who came here to do business. So the case actually will be happened anywhere
@@cyctmc3957 So unsafe.
@@cyctmc3957they would target this development especially since they know that majority aren’t locals, so it’s harder to track.
Any chance you might be heading over to eco spring for another content?
JB has got a lot of catch up to do if it wants to develop it self into the Shenzhen of Malaysia.
I agree!! But the current market is soooooo much better compared to the lockdown days. Thanks for watching!!
@@iherng everywhere is better compared to the lockdown days
Great video! Are u going to do a content for Eco Majestic Cheerywood?
Maybe… let me call my friends:)
Which project is the next landed launches. Now is very high price? Strata is still freehold right?
Was wondering if you would considering reviewing senibong cove projects one day? 😬
I haven’t got the opportunity yet unfortunately:/

just asking, why some strata tittle landed property has front gate, and some doesnt have front gates?
Two different projects with similar concepts under eco botanic 😘

They bought a new land behind eco 2 here
Let me clarify with the team hahahaha.
If one is to buy a new semi-D for home stay in a strata/gated environment in JB, which area is the best to consider between Sunway, Eco-Botanic and Austin developments?
Wah. Austin is a whole different location altogether. Sunway and Eco Botanic then is pretty close. Tough choice:/
Yah, all good choices.
Any analytical inputs from local Johoreans?...they should know best.😁
@@KG-rd5rh My pick , Horizon Hills (individual,but I like The Cove Semi D), Sunway (mostly terrace, Emerald still have a bit semi d), Senibong Cove Area, Leisure Farm, East Ledang, Kews by Senibong( new launch).
@@jasonyap2284 Great, thanks.
One more question... why is Eco Botanic not on your list?
@@KG-rd5rhvery personal opinion m, I like the the township of Eco Botanic, but don’t like the workmanship of eco world houses in Johor.

Hi Sean
Will be join your event by next week at eco galleria.
In fact, you can also share horizon hills which is much better than eco
See you there!!
If only both JB & SG CIQ provide seamless and express border clearance, commuting daily to work in SG from here would make plenty of $en$e.
Why do you need SG? Did SG need malay or did they dig where they were standing and pulled themselves up?
Snap out of little brother mentality and go bold.

best township in iskandar puteri
Haha I think the local authorities watched your video! Immediately after you posted this up they removed the barriers and now the road from Eco Botanic Phase 2 to Legoland has opened 😂
Owh really?! Woo hoo!!!
I wish my videos are that impactful lah hahahahaha.
Although all houses are sold, it seems not many people living there? People just bought for investment?
Mostly malaysian who works in SG larh hahaha

Senadi Hills providing more value to money with larger built-up and better build quality for house.
i love eco botanic!
@@sgzenith me too:)
@@iherng see u next sat at eco galleria!
it seems difficult to move around without a car.
Just wondering are you from Malaysia?
There is nothing eco about their project. You can't get anywhere without a car.
Exactly. Their projects are all urban sprawls. As for Johor in general, it is difficult to build transit-oriented developments. The only real form of public transit is buses.

Well for landed developments, it’s already not walking friendly. But at least for their first phase it’s still connected to the commercial area.
It is just waste of resources if you were to build a landed strata in heart of city center. The price of land probably different level tho...
Car is compulsory in Malaysia
