The popularity of water chalet living is conclusively proven by the high rental rates achieved by the other Water Chalet Resorts operating in Malaysia, such as The Avillion Resort in Port Dickson, Pangkor Laut in Pangkor and Langkawi Lagoon in Langkawi. All these Water Chalet Resorts achieve far higher rates per night than even the top 5-star hotels in Kuala Lumpur.
Resort Operator
The Banyan Curve Water Chalets is managed and operated by The Legend Group of Hotels and Resorts, best known for the highly respected Legend Hotel in Kuala Lumpur, the Grand Seasons Hotel in Kuala Lumpur and the renowned Legend Resort at Cherating Beach on Malaysia's east coast. The appointment of the Legend Group ensures that sound management will enhance the overall value of the project.
Rental Guarantee
Annual Rental guarantee of 8.00% per annum is offered gross for 13 years, which amounts to 104% of the total purchase price!
There is also the option of extending the rental guarantee for a further ten years at a rate agreed with the resort operator.
Mortgage Finance
60% Finance is available through the developer at a base rate of 6.75% in the first year which is reduced to only 2.99%, following a increase to 5.75% for the second and third years.
All down payments can be made through this financing, meaning that buyers only ever have to pay 30% of the total purchase price (plus taxes) and the stage payment borrowing is on an interest only basis.
