Kota Kinabalu: Buyers of The Palm Condominium Tower B in Kinarut, near here, will be able to move into their new homes as early as June, this year.
WSG Group Managing Director Datuk Susan Wong Siew Guen said Tower B has reached 85 per cent completion and is expected to obtain the Occupancy Certificate (OC) in June.
She said the company managed to avoid delays in construction despite the Covid-19 lockdown.
“We sped up the construction of Tower B, which enabled us to complete the project six months ahead of schedule,” she said.
Launched in 2020, Tower B stands 18 storeys tall and has 140 units, including four penthouses and about 70 per cent of the units have been sold out.
“Our company is currently offering 10 per cent discount to buyers, plus another five per cent for bumiputera units
“Tower A, C and D have been completed and are currently fully occupied,” she said, adding that the units are priced from RM398,000.
The condominium units have a spacious built-up area of 1,180 square feet with three bedrooms and two toilets. Residents get to enjoy the best natural sceneries of Sabah – mountainous landscape and panoramic sea view right here in Kinarut.
The condominium boasts 10 feet high ceiling and wide corridors, giving it a more spacious and airy feel. A viewing space is also provided on each floor for residents to enjoy the wide expanse of the South China Sea.
She said the condominium offers various facilities for the convenience and comfort of residents such as adult and children swimming pools, gymnasium, multipurpose hall, indoor badminton courts, outdoor basketball court, covered car park, 24-hour security, children’s playground and landscaped garden.
She said supermarkets, grocery stores, retail outlets, fast food restaurants and eateries can be found right outside the condominium at the Palm Square Commercial Centre.
Despite being a century-old township, Susan said Kinarut is thriving with commercial activities due to increasingly populated neighbourhoods in the area.
Kinarut is also home to the 90-year-old SJK(C) Kin Kiau, Tien Nam Shi Temple, churches and mosques.
“The town is less than 15 minutes’ drive from Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA) and close to many seaside resorts, including the upcoming Lok Kawi Resort City and KK Resort City projects in Lok Kawi.
“People do not necessarily have to live at the city centre anymore because of good connectivity, such as the new Pan Borneo Highway, as well as improved liveability in areas outside Kota Kinabalu,” she said.
Besides, Susan said lands located near city centres are very expensive and so developers have no choice but to build smaller units to make the properties affordable for buyers.
“On the contrary, land located in the outskirts or countryside is a lot cheaper and developers are able to provide bigger space for apartments, condominiums or terrace houses at affordable price.”
With better road connectivity and upcoming developments in Kinarut, Susan believed The Palm Condominium would be ideal for living and investment.

WSG Group would also have a sales booth at the Property Hunter Expo at Sabah International Convention Centre (SICC) from April 22 to 24, 9am to 9pm.
