Petalz Residences is located at Old Klang Road, and when it was launched in 2013, it was a success. Developed by Exsim Group, the project completed in 2016 and it has a gross development value (GDV) of RM300 million.
This project is defined by its distinctive roof; a petal’s shape through the metaphoric process. This shape gave the development of its identity and was a guide for the design. Besides symbolism, the roof also functions as a shade for sky-level activities.
Petalz Residences offers many pockets of relaxation and communal spaces so that residents can lead a healthy lifestyle without having to venture out. There’s a jacuzzi and sky jacuzzi, an indoor lawn area, herb garden, futsal court, boxing ring, sprint track, sky pool and many more. Its rooftop facilities serve as communal spaces and offer panoramic views of the city skyline and greenery of Gasing Hill.
The project was designed with features that adhere to the Green Building Index’s (GBI) accreditation guidelines for the expression of the development features and also the construction methods.
The 3-acre Petalz Residences is close to shopping malls such as OUG Plaza, Amcorp Mall, Mid Valley Megamall and Sunway Pyramid, and the KL Sentral KTM Station. Due to the development’s connectivity, residents will be able to get to Mid Valley Megamall in about 10 minutes, Sunway Pyramid via the LDP in about 15 minutes, and Cheras in about 10 minutes via the East-West Link Expressway. An added bonus, Petalz Residences’ residents will be able near some of the best food in town just metres from their homes.

Analysis
Petalz Residences fronts the Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP), which could mean some noise and air pollution. However, the development is considered attractive from an investment point of view.
The monthly rental for partially furnished 1,092 sq ft units starts from RM1,900 to RM2,100. The price for such units are from RM610,000 to RM710,000, based on a search on PropertyGuru in January 2021.
So, for a unit purchased at RM650,000, with a monthly rental of RM1,900, the gross rental yield would be 3.5% per annum.
Formula: (12 months’ rent / Property price) x 100% = % rental yield
