Strong demand for Sime Property's Elmina Valley Five properties

KUALA LUMPUR: Sime Darby Property's Elmina Valley Five (EV5) has attracted strong demand as buyers snapped up 90% of 373 units on offer during the weekend launches.

Phase 1 of EV5 comprises 168 units was launched on March 23, with virtually everything sold out. 

The second phase of EV5 homes, launched on April 27, saw 83% of units taken up (171 out of 205 units) within two days. 

Sime Property said 37 units consisting of corner and intermediate units were still available for purchase.

EV5 is the last instalment of Sime Darby Property’s best-selling Elmina Valley (EV) series.

It is a free-hold development located at the City of Elmina and part of a well-connected township that is situated right next to the iconic Elmina Central Park, a 300-acre park, of which 36 acres have been completed.

Chief operating officer for township development Datuk Wan Hashimi AlBakri Wan Ahmad Amin Jaffri said Sime Property planned to launch only 113 units of phase two .

“But after seeing the response from buyers on the first day, we made the decision to open up all 205 units for purchase. This brings the overall take up of EV5 to 90%, a major achievement in a challenging market,” he said.
