Analysis

D’Latour is an exclusive residence developed by DK-MY Properties, a subsidiary of DK Group. This company was formed in the year 1997 and eventually ventured into property development in early 2004. So far, this firm has launched Senza Residence, D’Twist and D’Skyvilla. Covering a land area of 2.75 acres, this leasehold development was launched at RM830 psf. Compared to other properties in the vicinity of Bandar Sunway, D’Latour is priced slightly higher since an average high-rise property there would cost around RM700 psf.

The main selling point for D’Latour is that it is located quite closely to Taylor’s Lakeside University, which is merely walking distance. So even though the price is quite high, yet investors would be going after it as the rental value would be higher. The traffic congestion is another thing which the buyers should consider, since this vicinity is well known for the massive jam on peak hours. But, it’s undeniable that Klang Valley properties are worth buying since the capital appreciation for these properties are good. D’Latour is also considered one of the best condos in Sunway.
