BLIZ is part of the project called ‘meta_city’, a mixed development with service residences, SOHO, a corporate tower, a vibrant lifestyle mall, and an international hotel. The project caters to those from different walks of life, and it is designed to provide a complete lifestyle.
Thoughtfully planned spaces allow residents to explore popular and new lifestyle possibilities. Thus, life at BLIZ is meant to transcend the norm for singles, families, and multi-generations in the heart of Seri Kembangan. The development also has direct access to a MRT Putra Permai station, and is located within a safe and tranquil surrounding that is less congested than the city.
As for meta_city, it is developed as a city away from the city, where business and leisure thrive. It will be at the centre of the “Golden Triangle” with international schools and colleges, businesses, as well as easy links to major highways.

Analysis
BLIZ (Tower B) at meta_residence comes with an array of financial goodies. There’s the Home Ownership Campaign (HOC) which was extended until 31 December 2021. BLIZ is also sold under the Houzkey scheme by Maybank Islamic Berhad, where buyers could get a full 100% financing on their purchase, no payment during construction, and lowest monthly payment.
There’s also the Villamas “Meta_easyown” campaign. By obtaining its own money lending license, Villamas is able to offer differential amount financing for buyers who are offered a lower financial margin from the bank. This financing now makes owning a dream home at meta_residence easier.
Mr Gan Teck Seong, Villamas Group CEO said, “At Villamas, we are committed towards finding unique solutions towards homeownership. As such, the idea behind these homeownership financial plans are to ensure a smoother purchasing process and to eliminate the worry of hefty initial outlays, which is the biggest concern of most homebuyers during these troubled times.”
Seri Kembangan have been densely populated for many years, and this is largely attributed to the location and rate of urbanisation. It is ideal for homebuyers looking for more urbanised areas outside of the Kuala Lumpur. The area has a mix of residential, commercial, and industrial components.
The Putrajaya Line, affordability, space and the network of highways have boosted Seri Kembangan’s popularity. For investors, they are mainly drawn to the huge student population. The Putrajaya Line could also enhance the renters’ market as people will be able to commute by rail.
Here’s a look at residential properties in, or close to, Seri Kembangan.
