Analysis
Like many older developments in the locale, Mont Kiara Palma’s exterior is showing signs of aging and it requires a fresh coat of paint and maintenance upkeep. However, what has not been affected much are its gardens and greenery, which has remained preserved in a resort-like ambience. The development is suitable for families, retirees and empty nesters because of its tranquil environment along with an abundance of conveniences nearby. Conservationists will be pleased to know that Mont Kiara Palma advocates eco-friendly practices by placing recycling bins in the refuse room of each floor. The development, albeit its age, is able to fetch rentals of RM2,900 as at end-2016, which is deemed amongst one of the few affordable options within Mont Kiara. The units offered below RM1 million are an appealing option for those who want to buy into this affluent neighbourhood but is on a budget. The one drawback is traffic congestion, a common problem faced by residents of the vibrant Mont’Kiara enclave.
